Ubr4 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables calmodulin binding activity and ubiquitin protein ligase activity. Involved in endosome organization; positive regulation of autophagy; and ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process via the N-end rule pathway. Acts upstream of or within protein catabolic process and protein stabilization. Located in endosome. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human UBR4 (ubiquitin protein ligase E3 component n-recognin 4). [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 Ubr4 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
