Tbpl1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable RNA polymerase II core promoter sequence-specific DNA binding activity and RNA polymerase II general transcription initiation factor activity. Acts upstream of or within acrosome assembly; dTTP biosynthetic process; and spermatid nucleus differentiation. Located in cytoplasm and male germ cell nucleus. Part of transcription factor TFIIA complex. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; early conceptus; ganglia; gonad; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human TBPL1 (TATA-box binding protein like 1). [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 Tbpl1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
