Rcat domain found in the RNF144 protein subfamily; The RNF144 subfamily includes RNF144A and RNF144B, which are transmembrane (TM) domain-containing RBR-type E3 ubiquitin-protein ligases. RNF144A, also called UbcM4-interacting protein 4 (UIP4), or ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme 7-interacting protein 4, targets DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit (DNA-PKcs), and thus promotes 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 called 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 changed to RING1-BRcat (benign-catalytic)-Rcat (required-for-catalysis) recently. The RBR 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 functions to facilitate the ubiquitination reaction. This model corresponds to the Rcat domain of the RNF144 protein subfamily that is essential for RBR E3 ligase activity and adopts the same fold as the BRcat domain.

Rcat (required-for-catalysis) domain, part of the RBR (RING1-BRcat-Rcat) domain; The RBR family of RING-type E3 ligases are characterized by containing an RBR domain, which was previously known as RING-BetweenRING-RING domain or TRIAD [two RING fingers and a DRIL (double RING finger linked)] domain. It is composed of an extended RING domain (RING1) followed by an in-between RING (IBR) domain and the catalytic domain, which is structurally an IBR domain but is commonly designated RING2. Based on current understanding of the structural biology of RBR ligases, the nomenclature of RBR has been changed to RING1-BRcat (benign-catalytic)-Rcat (required-for-catalysis) recently, where the IBR and RING2 domains have been renamed as BRcat and Rcat domains, respectively. The RBR 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 functions to facilitate the ubiquitination reaction. The Rcat domain contains the catalytic cysteine residue and ubiquitination activity. RBR family members play roles in protein quality control and can indirectly regulate transcription.

Rcat domain found in RING finger protein 217 (RNF217); RNF217, also called IBR domain-containing protein 1 (IBRDC1), is a transmembrane (TM) domain-containing RBR-type E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase, with different splice variants, that is mainly expressed in testis and skeletal muscle.

Rcat domain found in two RING fingers and DRIL [double RING finger linked] 1 (TRIAD1); TRIAD1, also called 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 changed to RING1-BRcat (benign-catalytic)-Rcat (required-for-catalysis) recently. The RBR 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 functions to facilitate the ubiquitination reaction. This model corresponds to the Rcat domain of TRIAD1 that is essential for RBR E3 ligase activity and adopts the same fold as the BRcat domain.

Rcat domain found in cullin-9 (CUL-9) and similar proteins; CUL-9, also called UbcH7-associated protein 1 (H7-AP1), p53-associated parkin-like cytoplasmic protein, or PARC, is a cytoplasmic RBR-type E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that function as a tumor suppressor and promotes p53-dependent apoptosis. It mediates the ubiquitination and degradation of cytosolic cytochrome c to promote survival in neurons and cancer cells. It is also a critical downstream effector of the 3M complex in the maintenance of microtubules and genome integrity. Moreover, CUL-9, together with CUL-7, forms homodimers and heterodimers, as well as some atypical cullin RING ligase complexes, which may exhibit ubiquitin ligase activity. CUL-9 contains a CPH domain (conserved in Cul7, PARC, and HERC2 proteins), a DOC (DOC1/APC10) domain, cullin homology domains linked with E3 ligase function, and a C-terminal RBR domain previously known as RING-BetweenRING-RING domain or TRIAD [two RING fingers and a DRIL (double RING finger linked)] domain.

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. 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.

Modified RING finger, HC subclass (C4C4-type), found in HOIL-1-interacting protein (HOIP) and similar proteins; HOIP, also known as RING finger protein 31 (RNF31) or zinc in-between-RING-finger ubiquitin-associated domain protein, together with HOIL-1 and SHARPIN, forms the E3-ligase complex (also known as linear-ubiquitin-chain assembly complex LUBAC) that regulates NF-kappaB activity and apoptosis. It also interacts with the atypical mammalian orphan receptor DAX-1, trigger DAX-1 ubiquitination and stabilization, and participate in repressing steroidogenic gene expression. HOIP contains three Npl4 zinc fingers, a central ubiquitin-associated (UBA) domain responsible for the interaction with the N-terminal ubiquitin-like domain (UBL) of HOIL-1L, an RBR domain, and a C-terminal linear chain determining domain (LDD). 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.

Rcat domain found in parkin and similar proteins; Parkin, also called Parkinson juvenile disease protein 2, is an RBR-type E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that is associated with recessive early onset Parkinson's disease (PD), and exerts a protective effect against dopamine-induced alpha-synuclein-dependent cell toxicity. Mutations in the parkin gene cause autosomal recessive juvenile parkinsonism. Parkin functions within a multiprotein E3 ubiquitin ligase complex, catalyzing the covalent attachment of ubiquitin moieties onto substrate proteins, such as BCL2, SYT11, CCNE1, GPR37, RHOT1/MIRO1, MFN1, MFN2, STUB1, SNCAIP, SEPT5, TOMM20, USP30, ZNF746, and AIMP2. It mediates monoubiquitination as well as Lys6-, Lys11-, Lys48- and Lys63-linked polyubiquitination of substrates depending on the context. Parkin may enhance cell viability and protects dopaminergic neurons from oxidative stress-mediated death by regulating mitochondrial function. It also limits the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and regulates cyclin-E during neuronal apoptosis. Moreover, parkin displays a ubiquitin ligase-independent function in transcriptional repression of p53. Parkin contains an N-terminal ubiquitin-like domain and a C-terminal RBR domain that was previously known as RING-BetweenRING-RING domain or TRIAD [two RING fingers and a DRIL (double RING finger linked)] domain.

It interacts with Psmc3, a protein component of the 19S regulatory cap of the 26S proteasome, and further participates in the ubiquitin-proteasome system in acrosome biogenesis, spermatid head shaping, and development of the head-tail coupling apparatus and tail. It modulates the ubiquitination and degradation of Calcium-sensing receptor (CaR), which may contribute to a general mechanism for CaR quality control during biosynthesis. Moreover, RNF19A can also ubiquitylate mutant superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1), the causative gene of familial ALS. It may associate with the endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) pathway, which is related to the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders, such as PD or Alzheimer's disease. It is also involved in the pathogenic process of PD and LB formation by ubiquitylation of synphilin-1. RNF19A contains an RBR domain followed by three TMs. The RBR domain was previously known as RING-BetweenRING-RING domain or TRIAD [two RING fingers and a DRIL (double RING finger linked)] domain.
