What's a GeneRIF?

A comprehensive proteomics-based interaction screen that links DYRK1A to RNF169 and to the DNA damage response.
Title: A comprehensive proteomics-based interaction screen that links DYRK1A to RNF169 and to the DNA damage response.
results highlight the interplay of RNF169 with 53BP1 in fine-tuning choice of DSB repair pathways.
Title: RNF169 limits 53BP1 deposition at DSBs to stimulate single-strand annealing repair.
USP7 is RNF169 interacting protein.Expression of USP7 and RNF169 positively correlated in breast cancer.
Title: Dual-utility NLS drives RNF169-dependent DNA damage responses.
The authors establish that RNF169 binds to ubiquitylated histone H2A-Lys13/Lys15 in a manner that involves its canonical ubiquitin-binding helix and a pair of arginine-rich motifs that interact with the nucleosome acidic patch.
Title: The RNF168 paralog RNF169 defines a new class of ubiquitylated histone reader involved in the response to DNA damage.
Ubiquitin ligases RNF168, RNF169, and RAD18 specifically bind histone H2A Lys13/15-ubiquitylated nucleosomes. 53BP1 chromatin recruitment may be activated by RNF168 and blocked by RNF169 and RAD18.

RNF169 as a component in DNA damage signal transduction and adds to the complexity of regulatory ubiquitylation in genome stability maintenance.
Title: Ring finger protein RNF169 antagonizes the ubiquitin-dependent signaling cascade at sites of DNA damage.
RNF168, its paralog RNF169, RAD18, and the BRCA1-interacting RAP80 protein accumulate at DNA double strand break sites through the use of bipartite modules composed of ubiquitin binding domains.
Title: Tandem protein interaction modules organize the ubiquitin-dependent response to DNA double-strand breaks.
results show that RNF169 functions in a noncanonical fashion to harness RNF168-mediated protein recruitment to DSB-containing chromatin, thereby contributing to regulation of DSB repair pathway utilization.
Title: Human RNF169 is a negative regulator of the ubiquitin-dependent response to DNA double-strand breaks.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
