DDB1 And CUL4 Associated Factor 4 (DCAF4)

DCAF4 encodes a WD repeat-containing protein that interacts with the Cul4-Ddb1 E3 ligase macromolecular complex. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene.A library of WD-repeat containing proteins has been constructed in which the repeats appear as multi-aligned sets. WD-repeat-containing proteins are those that contain 4 or more copies of the WD-repeat (tryptophan-aspartate repeat), a sequence motif approximately 31 amino acids long, that encodes a structural repeat. This repeat is described by the following profile, where x is ANY amino acid. By clicking on each high-lighted character you will obtain the distribution of amino acids found at that position of the repeat among an aligned set of WD-repeat containing proteins.
