Arsj Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable metal ion binding activity and sulfuric ester hydrolase activity. Predicted to be located in actin cytoskeleton. Is expressed in Meckel's cartilage; elbow joint primordium; otic capsule; and vertebral cartilage condensation. Orthologous to human ARSJ (arylsulfatase family member J).

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