Description
RCHY1 has ubiquitin ligase activity. It mediates E3-dependent ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of target proteins, including TP53, HDAC1 and CDKN1B, thus regulating their levels and cell cycle progression. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. Recombinant human RCHY1 protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E. coli
