Rnf13 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable JUN kinase binding activity and ubiquitin protein ligase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including positive regulation of JNK cascade; protein autoubiquitination; and ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including endoplasmic reticulum; late endosome membrane; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in lysosomal membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 73. Orthologous to human RNF13 (ring finger protein 13). [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 Rnf13 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
