Wdtc1 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable enzyme inhibitor activity; histone binding activity; and histone deacetylase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of fatty acid biosynthetic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to insulin stimulus; glucose metabolic process; and negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleus. Predicted to be part of Cul4-RING E3 ubiquitin ligase complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Orthologous to human WDTC1 (WD and tetratricopeptide repeats 1). [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 Wdtc1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
