Rnf111 Gene Summary [Rat]

Enables SMAD binding activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of transforming growth factor beta receptor signaling pathway; protein ubiquitination; and ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within pattern specification process; positive regulation of protein ubiquitination; and protein polyubiquitination. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of protein-containing complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and nucleus. Orthologous to human RNF111 (ring finger protein 111). [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 Rnf111 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
