motifs/domains
  • an N-terminal transmembrane (TM) domain
  • a protease-associated domain, with a functional role for the PA domain, which is required for endosomal localization of the protein
  • a second TM domain
  • a putative PEST sequence (Yamada 2006)
  • a signal peptide,
  • a central membrane-spanning region,
  • a C-terminal RING (really interesting new gene) domain
  • two putative N-terminal glycosylation sites

    text
  • type I transmembrane protein
  • basic FUNCTION
  • RING-finger protein, ubiquitin ligase for SLC22A18 that can function in concert with the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme UBE2E1
  • RNF167 is a selective regulator of AMPAR-mediated neurotransmission
  • is an endosomal ubiquitin ligase that regulates AMPAR-mediated synaptic transmission
  • influences the activity-dependent ubiquitination of neuronal AMPARs and regulates AMPA receptor-mediated synaptic transmission
  • implicated in the regulation of cellular endosome trafficking
  • RNF167 plays a crucial role as an E3 ubiquitin ligase targeting ARL8B to regulate lysosome positioning and endocytic trafficking

    small molecule
    protein
  • interacting with UBE2E1 and SLC22A18
  • RNF167 is involved in activity-dependent ubiquitination of AMPARs
  • is an E3 ligase that ubiquitinates GRIA2 and regulates its surface expression
  • RNF167 ubiquitinates ARL8B at the lysine residue K141 and reduces the level of the ARL8B protein
  • AKT1 and RNF167-mediated CASTOR1 degradation activates MTOR independent of arginine and promotes breast cancer progression
