Gm28040 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable kisspeptin receptor binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; decidualization; and negative regulation of cell migration. Predicted to be located in apical plasma membrane; extracellular space; and neuronal cell body. Is expressed in diencephalon and metanephros. Used to study hypogonadotropic hypogonadism 13 with or without anosmia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypogonadotropic hypogonadism 13 with or without anosmia. Orthologous to human KISS1 (KiSS-1 metastasis suppressor). [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 Gm28040 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
