S100a1 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable several functions, including ATPase binding activity; S100 protein binding activity; and protein homodimerization activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; positive regulation of nitric-oxide synthase activity; and positive regulation of sprouting angiogenesis. Located in sarcoplasmic reticulum. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; heart; inner ear; musculature; and urothelium. Orthologous to human S100A1 (S100 calcium binding protein A1).

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 S100a1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
