Hmgn3 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables chromatin binding activity. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of DNA-binding transcription factor activity; positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and regulation of insulin secretion involved in cellular response to glucose stimulus. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; epithelium; eye; genitourinary system; and limb. Orthologous to human HMGN3 (high mobility group nucleosomal binding domain 3). [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 Hmgn3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- HMG14 and HMG17
- domain in high mobilty group proteins HMG14 and HMG 17
- chromatin binding
