Mbnl1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Enables regulatory region RNA binding activity. Involved in regulation of alternative mRNA splicing, via spliceosome. Predicted to be located in cytoplasmic stress granule; cytosol; and nucleus. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and nucleoplasm. Orthologous to human MBNL1 (muscleblind like splicing regulator 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 Mbnl1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
