FunFam 60533: RING zinc finger protein

There are 2 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
RING-type E3 ubiquitin transferase. [EC: 2.3.2.27]
S-ubiquitinyl-[E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme]-L-cysteine + [acceptor protein]-L-lysine = [E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme]-L-cysteine + N(6)- ubiquitinyl-[acceptor protein]-L-lysine.
  • The RING domain of E3 ubiquitin transferase serves as a mediator bringing the ubiquitin-charged E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme and the acceptor protein together to enable the direct transfer of ubiquitin through the formation of an isopeptide bond between the C-terminal glycine residue of ubiquitin an the epsilon-amino group of an L-lysine residue of the acceptor protein.
  • The RING-E3 domain does not form a catalytic thioester intermediate with ubiquitin (unlike the HECT domain, EC 2.3.2.26).
  • RING-type ubiquitin transferases may occur as single-chain enzymes but also in dimeric forms or in multi-subunit assemblies.
  • Formerly EC 6.3.2.19 and EC 6.3.2.21.
