Scube2 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable hedgehog family protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in signal transduction. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including chondrocyte differentiation involved in endochondral bone morphogenesis; positive regulation of chondrocyte proliferation; and positive regulation of osteoblast differentiation. Predicted to be active in cell surface and extracellular space. Orthologous to human SCUBE2 (signal peptide, CUB domain and EGF like domain containing 2).

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 Scube2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
