Dap3 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to be a structural constituent of ribosome. Acts upstream of or within apoptotic mitochondrial changes. Located in mitochondrial matrix. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; gonad; hemolymphoid system gland; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Perrault syndrome 7. Orthologous to human DAP3 (death associated protein 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 Dap3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • mitochondrial presequence
  • N-terminal helicase domain of the DEAD-box helicase superfamily
  • protein binding
  • basic helix loop helix/Per Arnt Sim domain
  • GTP binding motif, P-loop
