Mta3 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable histone deacetylase binding activity; transcription coactivator activity; and transcription corepressor activity. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of G2/M transition of mitotic cell cycle and positive regulation of granulosa cell proliferation. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is expressed in central nervous system; early conceptus; genitourinary system; and limb. Orthologous to human MTA3 (metastasis associated 1 family member 3).

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 Mta3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
