Hmga1b - high mobility group AT-hook 1B

Predicted to enable several functions, including DNA binding activity; catalytic activity, acting on DNA; and nuclear receptor coactivator activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including oncogene-induced cell senescence; positive regulation of cellular senescence; and regulation of transcription, DNA-templated. Predicted to be located in nucleus and senescence-associated heterochromatin focus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; respiratory system; sensory organ; and urinary system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human HMGA1 (high mobility group AT-hook 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
