Asxl1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable several functions, including nuclear retinoic acid receptor binding activity; peroxisome proliferator activated receptor binding activity; and transcription coactivator activity. Involved in negative regulation of lipid storage. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Predicted to be part of PR-DUB complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in SM-AHNMD; acute myeloid leukemia; chronic myelomonocytic leukemia; myelodysplastic syndrome; and myelofibrosis. Orthologous to human ASXL1 (ASXL transcriptional 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 Asxl1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
