Ube3b Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable ubiquitin protein ligase activity. Predicted to be involved in protein polyubiquitination; regulation of postsynapse assembly; and ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process. Predicted to be located in mitochondrion. Predicted to be active in glutamatergic synapse and postsynapse. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Kaufman oculocerebrofacial syndrome. Orthologous to human UBE3B (ubiquitin protein ligase E3B). [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 Ube3b often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
