Cxcr3 Gene Summary [Mouse]
This gene encodes a transmembrane protein that functions as a receptor for C-X-R chemokines. Signalling through this protein regulates a variety of biological processes, including inflammation, immunity, and would healing. This protein also plays a role in tumor growth and metastasis.

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 Cxcr3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
