About CUL2

Cytogenetic location: 10p11.21 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 10:35,008,551-35,127,006 (from NCBI)

This gene has 49 transcripts (splice variants), 226 orthologues and 7 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 12.7), brain (RPKM 7.3) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

Enables ubiquitin protein Ligase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in SCF-dependent proteasomal ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process and protein ubiquitination. Predicted to act upstream of or within protein catabolic process. Located in nucleoplasm. Part of Cul2-RING ubiquitin Ligase complex. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
