ID:DCNL1_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=DCN1-like protein 1; AltName: Full=DCUN1 domain-containing protein 1; AltName: Full=Defective in cullin neddylation protein 1-like protein 1; AltName: Full=Squamous cell carcinoma-related oncogene; FUNCTION: Part of an E3 ubiquitin ligase complex for neddylation. Required for neddylation of cullin components of E3 cullin-RING ubiquitin ligase complexes by enhancing the rate of cullins neddylation. Functions to recruit the NEDD8-charged E2 enzyme to the cullin component. Involved in the release of inhibitory effets of CAND1 on cullin-RING ligase E3 complex assembly and activity. Acts also as an oncogene facilitating malignant transformation and carcinogenic progression (By similarity). SUBUNIT: Part of an E3 complex for neddylation composed of cullins, RBX1, UBE2M and CAND1. Interacts (via the C-terminus 50 AA) with CUL1, CUL2, CUL3, CUL4 and CUL5. Binds neddylated CUL1. Interacts (via the C-terminus 50 AA) directly with RBX1. Interacts preferentially with UBE2M-NEDD8 thioester (via N-terminus 1-26 AA) than with free UBE2M. Interacts with CAND1 when in complex with CUL1-RBX1. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in pancreas, kidney, placenta, brain and heart. Weakly or not expressed in liver, skeletal muscle and lung. Strongly overexpressed in thyroid tumors, bronchioloalveolar carcinomas, and malignant tissues of squamous cell carcinoma of the oral tongue. Not overexpressed in aggressive adrenocortical carcinomas. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 DCUN1 domain. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 UBA-like domain. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=BAB15235.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Note=Translation N-terminally extended;
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
