Dppa5a Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables mRNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within regulation of gene expression. Located in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus; genitourinary system; gut; hemolymphoid system gland; and liver. Orthologous to human DPPA5 (developmental pluripotency associated 5).

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 Dppa5a often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
