RNF40 - ring finger protein 40 Gene
Also Known as BRE1B; RBP95; STARING
Species: Homo sapiens
About RNF40
This gene has 12 transcripts (splice variants), 200 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 21.6), bone marrow (RPKM 14.4) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene contains a RING finger, a motif known to be involved in protein-protein and protein-DNA interactions. This protein was reported to interact with the tumor suppressor protein RB1. Studies of the rat counterpart suggested that this protein may function as an E3 ubiquitin-protein Ligase, and facilitate the ubiquitination and degradation of syntaxin 1, which is an essential component of the neurotransmitter release machinery. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2011]
