Lsm1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Enables mRNA binding activity and pre-mRNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in deadenylation-dependent decapping of nuclear-transcribed mRNA and histone mRNA catabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within negative regulation of neuron differentiation and stem cell population maintenance. Located in axon; dendrite; and neuronal cell body. Part of ribonucleoprotein complex. Orthologous to human LSM1 (LSM1 homolog, mRNA degradation associated). [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 Lsm1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
