E2f5 Gene Summary [Rat]
Enables sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within animal organ morphogenesis and regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Located in sarcoplasm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in prostate carcinoma. Orthologous to human E2F5 (E2F transcription factor 5). [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 E2f5 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
