Klhl4 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable ubiquitin-like ligase-substrate adaptor activity. Predicted to be involved in proteasome-mediated ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process. Predicted to be located in centriolar satellite and ciliary basal body. Predicted to be part of Cul3-RING ubiquitin ligase complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Orthologous to human KLHL4 (kelch like family member 4). [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 Klhl4 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
