RING-box protein 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RNF7 gene. [5] [6] [7]
The protein encoded by this gene is a highly conserved ring finger protein. It is an essential subunit of SKP1-cullin/CDC53-F box protein ubiquitin ligases, which are a part of the protein degradation machinery important for cell cycle progression and signal transduction. This protein interacts with, and is a substrate of, casein kinase II (CSNK2A1/CKII). The phosphorylation of this protein by CSNK2A1 has been shown to promote the degradation of IkappaBalpha (CHUK/IKK-alpha/IKBKA) and p27Kip1(CDKN1B). Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been reported. [7]
The activin A receptor also known as ACVR1C or ALK-7 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ACVR1C gene. ACVR1C is a type I receptor for the TGFB family of signaling molecules.
Cullin 1, also known as CUL1, is a human protein and gene from cullin family. This protein plays an important role in protein degradation and protein ubiquitination.
RING-box protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RBX1 gene.
Cullin-4A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CUL4A gene. CUL4A belongs to the cullin family of ubiquitin ligase proteins and is highly homologous to the CUL4B protein. CUL4A regulates numerous key processes such as DNA repair, chromatin remodeling, spermatogenesis, haematopoiesis and the mitotic cell cycle. As a result, CUL4A has been implicated in several cancers and the pathogenesis of certain viruses including HIV. A component of a CUL4A complex, Cereblon, was discovered to be a major target of the teratogenic agent thalidomide.
Casein kinase II subunit beta is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CSNK2B gene. It is a ubiquitous protein kinase which regulates metabolic pathways, signal transduction, transcription, translation, and replication. The enzyme localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi apparatus.
Cullin-5 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CUL5 gene.
E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase CHFR is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the CHFR gene.
Cullin-2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CUL2 gene.
E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase RING2 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the RNF2 gene.
Cullin-4B is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CUL4B gene which is located on the X chromosome. CUL4B has high sequence similarity with CUL4A, with which it shares certain E3 ubiquitin ligase functions. CUL4B is largely expressed in the nucleus and regulates several key functions including: cell cycle progression, chromatin remodeling and neurological and placental development in mice. In humans, CUL4B has been implicated in X-linked intellectual disability and is frequently mutated in pancreatic adenocarcinomas and a small percentage of various lung cancers. Viruses such as HIV can also co-opt CUL4B-based complexes to promote viral pathogenesis. CUL4B complexes containing Cereblon are also targeted by the teratogenic drug thalidomide.
Cullin 3 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CUL3 gene.
The human gene UBR1 encodes the enzyme ubiquitin-protein ligase E3 component n-recognin 1.
Anaphase-promoting complex subunit 2 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ANAPC2 gene.
E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase BRE1A is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the RNF20 gene.
Serine/threonine-protein kinase PLK2 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PLK2 gene.
E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase MIB1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the MIB1 gene. It is involved in regulating apoptosis.
AKT-interacting protein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the AKTIP gene.
Anaphase-promoting complex subunit 11 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ANAPC11 gene.
Cullins are a family of hydrophobic scaffold proteins which provide support for ubiquitin ligases (E3). All eukaryotes appear to have cullins. They combine with RING proteins to form Cullin-RING ubiquitin ligases (CRLs) that are highly diverse and play a role in myriad cellular processes, most notably protein degradation by ubiquitination.
S-phase kinase-associated protein 1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the SKP1 gene.
