epitope corresponding to amino acids 186-485 mapping at the C-terminus of RNF8 of human origin
Modification Notes
The RING finger motif is a specialized DNA-binding zinc finger domain found in many transcriptional regulatory proteins. The ring finger protein (RNF) family includes any protein containing the signature RING finger motif. RNF8 is a ubiquitously expressed nuclear RING finger protein that acts as an E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase. It is required for the ubiquitination of some nuclear proteins and promotes their subsequent degradation. The heterodimeric ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme UBC13 interacts with RNF8, and they co-localize in the nucleus. RNF8 may regulate mediation of UBC13 polyubiquitylation by elongating the ubiquitin chains. RNF8 also binds to Retinoid X receptor alpha (RXRå), a member of the steroid hormone receptor superfamily. It increases RXRå-mediated transactivation of the RXRå-responsive element (RXRE) promoter in a dose-dependent manner, suggesting that RNF8 is a regulator of RXRå-mediated transcriptional activity.
