Ubr2 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable L-leucine binding activity and histone H2A ubiquitin ligase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including meiotic nuclear division; negative regulation of gene expression, epigenetic; and regulation of signal transduction. Predicted to act upstream of or within male meiosis I; spermatogenesis; and ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process. Predicted to be located in chromatin. Predicted to be part of ubiquitin ligase complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Orthologous to human UBR2 (ubiquitin protein ligase E3 component n-recognin 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 Ubr2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
