Psma3 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable ubiquitin protein ligase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in proteasome-mediated ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process and regulation of endopeptidase activity. Part of proteasome core complex. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; cranium; dorsal root ganglion; lung; and tooth. Orthologous to human PSMA3 (proteasome 20S subunit alpha 3). [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 Psma3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
