Mbd4 - methyl-CpG binding domain protein 4 Gene

Also Known as Med1

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 17193

Summary

Enables DNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway in response to DNA damage; mitotic G2 DNA damage checkpoint signaling; and response to radiation. Located in chromatin; cytoplasm; and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; lower urogenital tract; reproductive system; retina; and urethra epithelium. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in colorectal carcinoma; esophagus squamous cell carcinoma; lung cancer; and rheumatoid arthritis. Orthologous to human MBD4 (methyl-CpG binding domain 4, DNA glycosylase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
