Khdc3 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable RNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of dendrite development; positive regulation of double-strand break repair via homologous recombination; and positive regulation of embryonic development. Acts upstream of or within mitotic spindle assembly; mitotic spindle assembly checkpoint signaling; and protein phosphorylation. Located in several cellular components, including cell cortex; centrosome; and mitochondrion. Part of subcortical maternal complex. Is expressed in several structures, including cranial ganglion; early conceptus; gonad; hemolymphoid system gland; and skin. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in gestational trophoblastic neoplasm. Orthologous to human KHDC3L (KH domain containing 3 like, subcortical maternal complex member).

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 Khdc3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
