RING finger (Really Interesting New Gene) domain and U-box domain superfamily; The RING finger is a specialized type of Zn-finger of 40 to 60 residues that binds two atoms of zinc. It is defined by the "cross-brace" motif that chelates zinc atoms by eight amino acid residues, typically Cys or His, arranged in a characteristic spacing. Canonical RING motifs have been categorized into two major subclasses, RING-HC (C3HC4-type) and RING-H2 (C3H2C3-type), according to their Cys/His content. There are also many variants of RING fingers: some have different Cys/His patterns while some lack a single Cys or His residue at typical Zn ligand positions (the fourth or eighth zinc ligand is prevalently exchanged for an Asp, which can indeed chelate Zn in a RING finger as well). C4C4-, C3HC3D-, C2H2C4-, and C3HC5-type RING fingers are closely related to RING-HC fingers. In contrast, C4HC3- (RING-CH alias RINGv), C3H3C2-, C3H2C2D-, C3DHC3-, and C4HC2H-type RING fingers are more closely related to RING-H2 fingers. However, not all RING finger-containing proteins display regular RING finger features, and the RING finger family has turned out to be multifarious. The degenerate RING fingers of the Siz/PIAS RING (SP-RING) family proteins and sporulation protein RMD5, are characterized by lacking the second, fifth, and sixth Zn2+ ion-coordinating residues. They bind only one Zn2+ ion. On the other hand, the RING fingers of the human APC11 and RBX1 proteins can bind a third Zn atom since they harbor four additional Zn ligands. U-box is a modified form of the RING finger domain that lacks metal chelating Cys and His residues. It resembles the cross-brace RING structure consisting of three beta-sheets and a single alpha-helix, which would be stabilized by salt bridges instead of chelated metal ions. U-box proteins are widely distributed among eukaryotic organisms and show a higher prevalence in plants than in other organisms. RING finger/U-box-containing proteins are a group of diverse proteins with a variety of cellular functions, including oncogenesis, development, viral replication, signal transduction, the cell cycle and apoptosis. Many of them are ubiquitin-protein ligases (E3s) that serve as scaffolds for binding to ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes (E2s, also referred to as ubiquitin carrier proteins or UBCs) in close proximity to substrate proteins, which enable efficient transfer of ubiquitin from E2 to the substrates.

RING finger, HC subclass, found in two RING fingers and DRIL [double RING finger linked] 1 (TRIAD1); TRIAD1, also known as ariadne-2 (ARI-2), protein ariadne-2 homolog, Ariadne RBR E3 ubiquitin protein ligase 2 (ARIH2), or UbcM4-interacting protein 48, is an RBR-type E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that catalyzes the formation of polyubiquitin chains linked via lysine-48, as well as lysine-63 residues. Its auto-ubiquitylation can be catalyzed by the E2 conjugating enzyme UBCH7. TRIAD1 has been implicated in hematopoiesis, specifically in myelopoiesis, as well as in embryogenesis. It functions as a regulator of endosomal transport and is required for the proper function of multivesicular bodies. It also acts as a novel ubiquitination target for proteasome-dependent degradation by murine double minute 2 (MDM2). As a proapoptotic protein, TRIAD1 promotes p53 activation, and inhibits MDM2-mediated p53 ubiquitination and degradation. Furthermore, TRIAD1 can inhibit the ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of growth factor independence 1 (Gfi1), a transcriptional repressor essential for the function and development of many different hematopoietic lineages. TRIAD1 contains an RBR domain that was previously known as RING-BetweenRING-RING domain or TRIAD [two RING fingers and a DRIL (double RING finger linked)] domain. Based on current understanding of the structural biology of RBR ligases, the nomenclature of RBR has been corrected as RING-BRcat (benign-catalytic)-Rcat (required-for-catalysis) recently. The RBR (RING1-BRcat-Rcat) domain uses an auto-inhibitory mechanism to modulate ubiquitination activity, as well as a hybrid mechanism that combines aspects from both RING and HECT E3 ligase function to facilitate the ubiquitination reaction. This model corresponds to the RING domain, a C3HC4-type RING-HC finger required for RBR-mediated ubiquitination. Pssm-ID: 438429 [Multi-domain] Cd Length: 54 Bit Score: 38.49 E-value: 1.64e-04

RING finger, HC subclass, found in human homolog of Drosophila ariadne (HHARI) and similar proteins; This subfamily includes Drosophila melanogaster protein ariadne-1 (ARI-1), and its eukaryotic homologs, such as HHARI. ARI-1 is a widely expressed Drosophila RING-finger protein that localizes mainly in the cytoplasm and is required for neural development. It interacts with a novel ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme, UbcD10. HHARI, also known as H7-AP2, monocyte protein 6 (MOP-6), protein ariadne-1 homolog, Ariadne RBR E3 ubiquitin protein ligase 1 (ARIH1), ariadne-1 (ARI-1), UbcH7-binding protein, UbcM4-interacting protein, or ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2-binding protein 1, is an RBR-type E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase highly expressed in nuclei, where it is co-localized with nuclear bodies including Cajal, PML, and Lewy bodies. It interacts with the E2 conjugating enzymes UbcH7, UbcH8, UbcM4, and UbcD10 in human, mouse, and fly, and modulates the ubiquitylation of substrate proteins including single-minded 2 (SIM2) and translation initiation factor 4E homologous protein (4EHP). It functions as a potent mediator of DNA damage-induced translation arrest, which protects stem and cancer cells against genotoxic stress by initiating a 4EHP-mediated mRNA translation arrest. HHARI contains an RBR domain that was previously known as RING-BetweenRING-RING domain or TRIAD [two RING fingers and a DRIL (double RING finger linked)] domain. Based on current understanding of the structural biology of RBR ligases, the nomenclature of RBR has been corrected as RING-BRcat (benign-catalytic)-Rcat (required-for-catalysis) recently.

RING finger, HC subclass, found in RING finger protein 14 (RNF14) and similar proteins; RNF14, also known as androgen receptor-associated protein 54 (ARA54), HFB30, or Triad2 protein, is an RBR-type E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that is highly expressed in the testis and interacts with class III E2s (UBE2E2, UbcH6, and UBE2E3). Its differential localization may play an important role in testicular development and spermatogenesis in humans. RNF14 functions as a transcriptional regulator of mitochondrial and immune function in muscle. It is a ligand-dependent androgen receptor (AR) co-activator and may also may participate in enhancing cell cycle progression and cell proliferation via induction of cyclin D1. Moreover, RNF14 is crucial for colon cancer cell survival. It acts as a new enhancer of the Wnt-dependent transcriptional outputs that acts at the level of the T-cell factor/lymphoid enhancer factor (TCF/LEF)-beta-catenin complex. RNF14 contains an N-terminal RWD domain and a C-terminal RBR domain. The RBR domain was previously known as RING-BetweenRING-RING domain or TRIAD [two RING fingers and a DRIL (double RING finger linked)] domain. Based on current understanding of the structural biology of RBR ligases, the nomenclature of RBR has been corrected as RING-BRcat (benign-catalytic)-Rcat (required-for-catalysis) recently.

RING finger, HC subclass, found in Saccharomyces cerevisiae histone E3 ligase 2 (HEL2) and similar proteins; HEL2 is an E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that interacts with the E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme UBC4 and histones H3 and H4. It plays an important role in regulating histone protein levels and also likely to contribute to the maintenance of genomic stability in the budding yeast. HEL2 can be phosphorylated by the DNA damage checkpoint kinase and histone protein regulator Rad53. This subfamily also includes Schizosaccharomyces pombe histone E3 ligase 1 (HEL1), also known as DNA-break-localizing protein 4 (dbl4), and Dictyostelium discoideum Ariadne-like ubiquitin ligase (RbrA). RbrA may act as an E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that appears to be required for normal cell-type proportioning and cell sorting during multicellular development, and is also necessary for spore cell viability. Members of this subfamily contain an RBR domain that was previously known as RING-BetweenRING-RING domain or TRIAD [two RING fingers and a DRIL (double RING finger linked)] domain. Based on current understanding of the structural biology of RBR ligases, the nomenclature of RBR has been corrected as RING-BRcat (benign-catalytic)-Rcat (required-for-catalysis) recently.

Modified RING finger, HC subclass (C4C4-type), found in RNF144 proteins; This group includes RNF144A and RNF144B, both of which are transmembrane (TM) domain-containing RBR-type E3 ubiquitin-protein ligases. RNF144A, also known as UbcM4-interacting protein 4 (UIP4) or ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme 7-interacting protein 4, targets DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit (DNA-PKcs), and thus promote DNA damage-induced cell apoptosis. It is transcriptionally repressed by metastasis-associated protein 1 (MTA1) and inhibits MTA1-driven cancer cell migration and invasion. RNF144B, also known as PIR2, IBR domain-containing protein 2 (IBRDC2), or p53-inducible RING finger protein (p53RFP), induces p53-dependent but caspase-independent apoptosis. It interacts with E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes UbcH7 and UbcH8, but not with UbcH5. It is involved in ubiquitination and degradation of p21, a p53 downstream protein promoting growth arrest and antagonizing apoptosis, suggesting a role in switching a cell from p53-mediated growth arrest to apoptosis. Moreover, RNF144B regulates the levels of Bax, a pro-apoptotic protein from the Bcl-2 family, and protects cells from unprompted Bax activation and cell death. It also regulates epithelial homeostasis by mediating degradation of p21WAF1 and p63. Both RNF144A and RNF144B contain an RBR domain followed by a potential single-TM domain. The RBR domain was previously known as RING-BetweenRING-RING domain or TRIAD [two RING fingers and a DRIL (double RING finger linked)] domain. Based on current understanding of the structural biology of RBR ligases, the nomenclature of RBR has been corrected as RING-BRcat (benign-catalytic)-Rcat (required-for-catalysis) recently. The RBR (RING1-BRcat-Rcat) domain uses an auto-inhibitory mechanism to modulate ubiquitination activity, as well as a hybrid mechanism that combines aspects from both RING and HECT E3 ligase function to facilitate the ubiquitination reaction. This model corresponds to the RING domain, a C4C4-type RING finger whose overall folding is similar to that of the C3HC4-type RING-HC finger. It is required for RBR-mediated ubiquitination.
