Ube2g2 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity and ubiquitin conjugating enzyme activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cellular response to interferon-beta; negative regulation of retrograde protein transport, ER to cytosol; and proteolysis involved in protein catabolic process. Predicted to be located in lipid droplet. Predicted to be active in cytosol and endoplasmic reticulum. Orthologous to human UBE2G2 (ubiquitin conjugating enzyme E2 G2).

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 Ube2g2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
