E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase RNF8 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the RNF8 gene.

Contents

Function

The protein encoded by this gene contains a RING finger motif and an FHA domain. This protein has been shown to interact with several class II ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes (E2), including UBE2E1/UBCH6, UBE2E2, and UBE2E3, and may act as a ubiquitin ligase (E3) in the ubiquitination of certain nuclear proteins. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been reported.

Interactions

RNF8 has been shown to interact with Retinoid X receptor alpha.
