Btbd9 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Involved in modulation of chemical synaptic transmission. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including circadian sleep/wake cycle, non-REM sleep; long-term memory; and multicellular organismal-level iron ion homeostasis. Is active in glutamatergic synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus; genitourinary system; liver; retina nuclear layer; and telencephalon. Used to study restless legs syndrome. Orthologous to human BTBD9 (BTB domain containing 9). [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 Btbd9 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
