Dtl Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable protein-macromolecule adaptor activity. Predicted to contribute to ubiquitin-protein transferase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including protein ubiquitination; regulation of G2/M transition of mitotic cell cycle; and translesion synthesis. Predicted to be located in centrosome; cytosol; and nuclear lumen. Predicted to be part of Cul4A-RING E3 ubiquitin ligase complex and Cul4B-RING E3 ubiquitin ligase complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Orthologous to human DTL (denticleless E3 ubiquitin protein ligase homolog). [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 Dtl often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
