Dcun1d1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable cullin family protein binding activity; ubiquitin conjugating enzyme binding activity; and ubiquitin-like protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of protein neddylation; protein neddylation; and regulation of protein ubiquitination. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of ubiquitin ligase complex. Orthologous to human DCUN1D1 (defective in cullin neddylation 1 domain containing 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 Dcun1d1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
