Asxl1 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables nuclear retinoic acid receptor binding activity; peroxisome proliferator activated receptor binding activity; and transcription coactivator activity. Involved in several processes, including kidney development; negative regulation of fat cell differentiation; and regulation of intracellular signal transduction. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including heart morphogenesis; hematopoietic or lymphoid organ development; and lung saccule development. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; dorsal root ganglion; limb bud; paraxial mesenchyme; and salivary gland. Used to study acute myeloid leukemia; myelodysplastic syndrome; and myeloproliferative neoplasm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in SM-AHNMD; acute myeloid leukemia; chronic myelomonocytic leukemia; myelodysplastic syndrome; and myelofibrosis. Orthologous to human ASXL1 (ASXL transcriptional regulator 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Asxl1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
