Herc6 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable cyclin binding activity and ubiquitin protein ligase activity. Acts upstream of or within hematopoietic progenitor cell differentiation and response to bacterium. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in liver. Orthologous to human HERC6 (HECT and RLD domain containing E3 ubiquitin protein ligase family member 6). [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 mouse Herc6 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
