Gstm1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables identical protein binding activity. Acts upstream of or within cellular response to xenobiotic stimulus. Located in cytosol and mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; liver; and sensory organ. Used to study autism spectrum disorder. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including autoimmune disease (multiple); eye disease (multiple); gastrointestinal system cancer (multiple); hematologic cancer (multiple); and lung disease (multiple). Orthologous to human GSTM1 (glutathione S-transferase mu 1) and GSTM5 (glutathione S-transferase mu 5). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

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 Gstm1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
