Ccnd3 Gene Summary [Rat]

Enables protein kinase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including G1/S transition of mitotic cell cycle; hyaluronan biosynthetic process; and response to glucose. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of cyclin D3-CDK4 complex and cyclin D3-CDK6 complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm; microtubule organizing center; and nucleus. Orthologous to human CCND3 (cyclin D3). [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 Ccnd3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
