Otud4 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable K63-linked deubiquitinase activity; cysteine-type deubiquitinase activity; and molecular adaptor activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including DNA alkylation repair; negative regulation of signal transduction; and protein deubiquitination. Predicted to be located in cytosol. Orthologous to human OTUD4 (OTU deubiquitinase 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 Otud4 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
