Ccne2 Gene Summary [Rat]

Enables protein kinase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in G1/S transition of mitotic cell cycle and positive regulation of G1/S transition of mitotic cell cycle. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including DNA replication initiation; chromosome organization; and regulation of protein localization. Predicted to be part of cyclin E1-CDK2 complex and cyclin E2-CDK2 complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm; microtubule organizing center; and nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in castration-resistant prostate carcinoma. Orthologous to human CCNE2 (cyclin E2). [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 Ccne2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • protein kinase binding
  • Cyclin box fold superfamily
  • Cyclin, N-terminal domain
  • protein binding
  • domain present in cyclins, TFIIB and Retinoblastoma
  • cyclin-dependent protein kinase regulator
