About RNF128

Cytogenetic location: Xq22.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): X:106,693,838-106,797,016 (from NCBI)

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 227 orthologues and 9 paralogues. Broad expression in small intestine (RPKM 27.8), liver (RPKM 27.8) and 15 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a type I transmembrane protein that localizes to the endocytic pathway. This protein contains a RING zinc-finger motif and has been shown to possess E3 ubiquitin Ligase activity. Expression of this gene in retrovirally transduced T cell hybridoma significantly inhibits activation-induced IL2 and IL4 cytokine production. Induced expression of this gene was observed in anergic CD4(+) T cells, which suggested a role in the induction of anergic phenotype. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been reported. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
