Description
Product Characteristics: RNF8, ring finger protein 8, ring finger protein (C3HC4 type) 8, KIAA0646, FLJ12013, C3HC4-type zinc finger protein, OTTHUMP00000039684, UBC13/UEV-interacting ring finger protein,
Target Information: The protein encoded by this gene contains a RING finger motif and an FHA domain. This protein has been shown to interact with several class II ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes (E2), including UBE2E1/UBCH6, UBE2E2, and UBE2E3, and may act as an ubiquitin ligase (E3) in the ubiquitination of certain nuclear proteins. This protein is also known to play a role in the DNA damage response and depletion of this protein causes cell growth inhibition and cell cycle arrest. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012]
