Dcaf12 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable ubiquitin-like ligase-substrate adaptor activity. Predicted to be involved in T cell activation and ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process via the C-end degron rule pathway. Predicted to be located in centrosome. Predicted to be part of Cul4-RING E3 ubiquitin ligase complex. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Orthologous to human DCAF12 (DDB1 and CUL4 associated factor 12).

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 Dcaf12 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
