Ugt3a1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables UDP-glycosyltransferase activity. Predicted to act upstream of or within cellular response to genistein. Predicted to be part of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine transferase complex. Is expressed in trigeminal ganglion. Orthologous to several human genes including UGT3A2 (UDP glycosyltransferase family 3 member A2). [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 Ugt3a1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
