Ring finger protein 138: Proteins and Enzymes

Ring finger protein 138 is 245 amino acids long, weighs approximately 28 kDa, and has a shorter isoform that is 151 amino acids long and weighs approximately 17 kDa. Ring finger protein 138 functions as E3 ubiquitin-protein ligases that works with NLK to ubiquitinate and degrade TCF and LEF. Current research is being done on diseases and disorders related to this protein including Crohn's disease and ataxia. Ring finger protein 138 has also been shown to have interactions with PCBP4, QKI, TAF9, C6orf165, and UBE2D2 in pathways such as the antigen processing, Wnt/beta-catenin-mediated signaling, and immune system pathways.
