Tut1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable several functions, including RNA binding activity; enzyme-substrate adaptor activity; and nucleotidyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in U6 snRNA 3'-end processing and co-transcriptional mRNA 3'-end processing, cleavage and polyadenylation pathway. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleolus. Predicted to be part of mRNA cleavage and polyadenylation specificity factor complex. Predicted to be active in nuclear speck. Is expressed in central nervous system; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human TUT1 (terminal uridylyl transferase 1, U6 snRNA-specific).

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 Tut1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
