CHFR - checkpoint with forkhead and ring finger domains Gene
Also Known as RNF116; RNF196
Species: Homo sapiens
About CHFR
This gene has 24 transcripts (splice variants) and 202 orthologues. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 9.9), spleen (RPKM 8.8) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes an E3 ubiquitin-protein Ligase required for the maintenance of the antephase checkpoint that regulates cell cycle entry into Mitosis and, therefore, may play a key role in cell cycle progression and tumorigenesis. The encoded protein has an N-terminal forkhead-associated domain, a central RING-finger domain, and a cysteine-rich C-terminal region. Alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2014]
