Klhl15 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable ubiquitin-like ligase-substrate adaptor activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of double-strand break repair via homologous recombination and nuclear protein quality control by the ubiquitin-proteasome system. Predicted to be part of Cul3-RING ubiquitin ligase complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in non-syndromic X-linked intellectual disability 103. Orthologous to human KLHL15 (kelch like family member 15). [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 Klhl15 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
