Prdm1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable several functions, including DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; histone methyltransferase binding activity; and promoter-specific chromatin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including peptidyl-arginine methylation; regulation of lymphocyte differentiation; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including circulatory system development; eye morphogenesis; and regulation of gene expression. Predicted to be located in nucleolus and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hepatocellular carcinoma and lung adenocarcinoma. Orthologous to human PRDM1 (PR/SET domain 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 rat Prdm1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
