Pip Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable IgG binding activity; aspartic-type endopeptidase activity; and identical protein binding activity. Acts upstream of or within regulation of immune system process. Located in apical plasma membrane and extracellular region. Is expressed in several structures, including exocrine system and female reproductive system. Orthologous to human PIP (prolactin induced protein). [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 Pip often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • IgG binding
  • peptidase
  • aspartic endopeptidase
  • protein binding
  • identical protein binding
