Cdc73 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable RNA polymerase II complex binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including negative regulation of cell population proliferation; regulation of RNA metabolic process; and regulation of cell cycle G1/S phase transition. Predicted to act upstream of or within negative regulation of apoptotic process; regulation of cell growth; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of Cdc73/Paf1 complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hyperparathyroidism and parathyroid carcinoma. Orthologous to human CDC73 (cell division cycle 73). [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 rat Cdc73 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
