Rbbp5 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable histone binding activity and transcription cis-regulatory region binding activity. Predicted to be involved in response to estrogen and transcription initiation-coupled chromatin remodeling. Predicted to act upstream of or within DNA damage response. Predicted to be located in nucleolus and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of MLL1 complex; MLL3/4 complex; and Set1C/COMPASS complex. Orthologous to human RBBP5 (RB binding protein 5, histone lysine methyltransferase complex subunit). [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 Rbbp5 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
