Jade2 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables ubiquitin protein ligase activity. Acts upstream of or within neuron projection extension; positive regulation of neurogenesis; and protein ubiquitination. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of histone acetyltransferase complex. Is expressed in central nervous system and genitourinary system. Orthologous to human JADE2 (jade family PHD finger 2). [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 Jade2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
