Ascc2 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable K63-linked polyubiquitin modification-dependent protein binding activity and ubiquitin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of DNA-templated transcription; rescue of stalled ribosome; and ribosome-associated ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Predicted to be part of DNA repair complex and RQC-trigger complex. Predicted to be active in cytosolic ribosome. Orthologous to human ASCC2 (activating signal cointegrator 1 complex subunit 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 Ascc2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
