background:
RNF43 is a probable E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that promotes cell growth and is upregulated in colon cancer. E3 ubiquitin ligases accept ubiquitin from an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme in the form of a thioester and then directly transfer the ubiquitin to targeted substrates.
Function:
Probable E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase. E3 ubiquitin ligases accept ubiquitin from an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme in the form of a thioester and then directly transfer the ubiquitin to targeted substrates.
Subunit:
Interacts with AKAP8L, NONO and SFPQ.
Subcellular Location:
Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein (Potential). Nucleus envelope.
Tissue Specificity:
Expressed in fetal kidney, fetal lung, in colon cancer tissues, hepatocellular carcinomas and lung adenocarcinomas. Overexpressed in colorectal cancer cell lines.
Similarity:
Contains 1 RING-type zinc finger.
