Pggt1b Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable heterocyclic compound binding activity; protein geranylgeranyltransferase activity; and zinc ion binding activity. Predicted to contribute to CAAX-protein geranylgeranyltransferase activity; peptide binding activity; and small molecule binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including positive regulation of cell cycle; positive regulation of cell population proliferation; and protein geranylgeranylation. Part of CAAX-protein geranylgeranyltransferase complex. Orthologous to human PGGT1B (protein geranylgeranyltransferase type I subunit beta). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 Pggt1b often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
