Rnf181 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable ubiquitin protein ligase activity. Predicted to be involved in protein autoubiquitination. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including adrenal gland; central nervous system; liver lobe; olfactory epithelium; and thymus primordium. Orthologous to human RNF181 (ring finger protein 181).

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 mouse Rnf181 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
