Babam2 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable polyubiquitin modification-dependent protein binding activity and tumor necrosis factor receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cellular response to ionizing radiation; mitotic G2 DNA damage checkpoint signaling; and positive regulation of DNA repair. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleus. Predicted to be part of BRCA1-A complex; BRISC complex; and nuclear ubiquitin ligase complex. Orthologous to human BABAM2 (BRISC and BRCA1 A complex member 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 rat Babam2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
