Function RAG1 and RAG2 form the RAG Complex, which is responsible for regulating the DNA cleavage phase during recombination. V(D)J recombination functions to produce a plethora of immune molecules (antibodies) in developing B and T-lymphocytes. The V stands for variable, D, diversity and J joining. RAG1 functions as the catalytic component while RAG2, although not catalytic, is required for RAG1 to function. Structural highlights This is a sample scene created with SAT to color by Group, and another to make a transparent representation of the protein. You can make your own scenes on SAT starting from scratch or loading and editing one of these sample scenes.
