Dcaf13 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable nuclear estrogen receptor binding activity and ubiquitin-like ligase-substrate adaptor activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including decidualization; oocyte growth; and spindle assembly involved in female meiosis. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including centrosome; cytosol; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of Cul4-RING E3 ubiquitin ligase complex and small-subunit processome. Predicted to be active in nucleolus. Orthologous to human DCAF13 (DDB1 and CUL4 associated factor 13). [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 rat Dcaf13 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
