Btrc Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable several functions, including beta-catenin binding activity; ubiquitin ligase activator activity; and ubiquitin-like ligase-substrate adaptor activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including positive regulation of macromolecule metabolic process; protein modification process; and regulation of signal transduction. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including SCF-dependent proteasomal ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process; mammary gland epithelium development; and protein K48-linked ubiquitination. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Predicted to be part of SCF ubiquitin ligase complex. Orthologous to human BTRC (beta-transducin repeat containing E3 ubiquitin protein ligase).

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