Psme2 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Contributes to endopeptidase activator activity. Acts upstream of or within antigen processing and presentation of exogenous antigen. Predicted to be part of proteasome activator complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and nucleoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including heart; hemolymphoid system; liver; lung; and pancreas. Orthologous to human PSME2 (proteasome activator subunit 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 Psme2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
