Spout1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable miRNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in maintenance of centrosome location and miRNA processing. Predicted to act upstream of with a positive effect on post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. Predicted to be active in kinetochore; mitotic spindle; and spindle pole centrosome. Orthologous to human SPOUT1 (SPOUT domain containing methyltransferase 1). [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 rat Spout1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
