Ubxn2b Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable ubiquitin binding activity. Involved in establishment of mitotic spindle orientation; negative regulation of protein localization to centrosome; and positive regulation of mitotic centrosome separation. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus; endoplasmic reticulum; and spindle pole centrosome. Predicted to be active in cytosol and nucleus. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

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 Ubxn2b often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
