E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase TRIM41

Definition:

E3 ligase that plays essential roles in innate antiviral response. Directly binds to influenza A virus or vesicular stomatitis virus nucleoproteins and targets them for ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation, thereby limiting viral infections. Activates the innate antiviral response by catalyzing monoubiquitination of CGAS, thereby activating CGAS. Also involved in innate antiviral response by mediating 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitylation of BCL10 which in turn hubs NEMO for activation of NF-kappa-B and IRF3 pathways (By similarity). Catalyzes the ubiquitin-mediated degradation of other substrates including protein kinase C, ZSCAN21 or TOP3B suggesting additional roles besides its function in immune response.
