Anti-p53RFP

caution:Lacks the His residue in the RING-type domain 2 that is one of the conserved features of the family.,domain:The RING-type zinc finger domain mediates binding to an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme.,function:E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase which accepts ubiquitin from E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes UBE2L3 and UBE2L6 in the form of a thioester and then directly transfers the ubiquitin to targeted substrates such as LCMT2, thereby promoting their degradation. Induces apoptosis via a TP53/p53-dependent but caspase-independent mechanism.,pathway:Protein modification, protein ubiquitination.,PTM:Auto-ubiquitinated.,similarity:Belongs to the RBR family. RNF144 subfamily.,similarity:Contains 1 IBR-type zinc finger.,similarity:Contains 2 RING-type zinc fingers.,subunit:Interacts with UBE2L3, UBE2L6 and LCMT2.,tissue specificity:Broadly expressed, with lowest levels in brain, spleen and thymus., Protein function: E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase which accepts ubiquitin from E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes UBE2L3 and UBE2L6 in the form of a thioester and then directly transfers the ubiquitin to targeted substrates such as LCMT2, thereby promoting their degradation. Induces apoptosis via a p53/TP53-dependent but caspase-independent mechanism. However, its overexpression also produces a decrease of the ubiquitin- dependent stability of BAX, a pro-apoptotic protein, ultimately leading to protection of cell death, But, it is not an anti-apoptotic protein per se. [The UniProt Consortium] Recommended dilutions: Western Blot: 1/500 - 1/2000. ELISA: 1/40000. Not yet tested in other applications.. Cellular localization: Mitochondrion membrane , Single-pass membrane protein . Cytoplasm . Mostly cytosololic, accumulates in submitochondrial domains specifically upon apoptosis induction, in synchrony with BAX activation.
