Adnp Gene Summary [Mouse]
This gene encodes a member of a protein family characterized by nine zinc finger motifs followed by a homeobox domain. In vitro studies demonstrate that the encoded protein interacts with the brahma-related gene1-associated or hBRM factors (BAF) gene expression regulating complex, components of the protein translation machinery, and microtubule-associated proteins. This gene has been implicated in neuroprotection through various processes that include chromatin remodeling, splicing, cytoskeletal reorganization, and autophagy. Homozygous mutant knockout mice display embryonic lethality with defects in neural tube closure. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2016]

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