• Entrez Summary: This gene encodes a member of the tripartite motif (TRIM) protein family. Based on similarities to other proteins, the encoded protein is suspected to be an E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase. Regulation of this gene may be altered in some cancers. Mutations resulting in a truncated protein product have been observed in early-onset epileptic encephalopathy (EOEE). [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2016].
• UniProt Summary: E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase which plays different roles in immune pathways. Participates in the activation of interferon- gamma signaling by promoting proteasomal degradation of the repressor SOCS1 (PubMed:12163497). Plays a positive role in the TNFalpha and IL-1beta signaling pathways. Mechanistically, induces the 'lys-63' polyubiquitination of MAP3K7/TAK1 component leading to the activation of NF-kappa-B (PubMed:22084099, PubMed:23152791). Modulates also STAT3 activity through negative regulation of PIAS3, either by degradation of PIAS3 through the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway or exclusion of PIAS3 from the nucleus (PubMed:20516148). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12163497, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20516148, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22084099, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23152791}.
