Ecd Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable histone acetyltransferase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within fibroblast proliferation and regulation of G1/S transition of mitotic cell cycle. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Orthologous to human ECD (ecdysoneless cell cycle regulator). [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 Ecd often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
