E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase RNF128; RING finger protein 128; gene related to anergy in lymphocytes protein (RNF128, GRAIL)
Function:
1) E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase, catalyzes formation of polyubiquitin chains
2) inhibitor of cytokine gene transcription
- inhibits IL2 & IL4 transcription via E3 ligase activity
3) induction of the anergic phenotyp
4) patterning of dorsal ectoderm
- sensitizes ectoderm to neural-inducing signals
5) ubiquitin conjugation, 3rd step
6) induced under anergic conditions
7) up-regulated during T cell anergy induction following signaling through the T cell antigen receptor
8) binds to E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme
- requires intact RING finger
9) auto-ubiquitinated
10) controls the development of T cell clonal anergy by ubiquitination
Structure:
- contains 1 PA domain (protease associated) domain) contains 1 RING-type zinc finger
Compartment:
- intracytoplasmic membrane, perinuclear region
- localized in an asymmetric perinuclear punctate manner
- localizes to the internal pool of the transferrin recycling endosomal pathway
- partially colocalized with endoplasmic reticulum resident HSPA5, with Golgi resident STX5, & with the late endosomal GTPase RAB7
Alternative splicing: named isoforms=2
