Pum1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable mRNA 3'-UTR binding activity and miRNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including adult locomotory behavior; positive regulation of RIG-I signaling pathway; and regulation of gene expression. Predicted to act upstream of or within post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. Located in axon. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cerebellar ataxia type 47. Orthologous to human PUM1 (pumilio RNA binding family member 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 Pum1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
