Ing1 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable methylated histone binding activity. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of DNA-templated transcription; protein import into nucleus; and regulation of programmed cell death. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; early conceptus; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; and liver. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. Orthologous to human ING1 (inhibitor of growth family member 1).

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 Ing1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
