Rnf31 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable several functions, including linear polyubiquitin binding activity; polyubiquitin modification-dependent protein binding activity; and ubiquitin protein ligase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cell surface receptor signaling pathway; positive regulation of NF-kappaB transcription factor activity; and positive regulation of canonical NF-kappaB signal transduction. Predicted to act upstream of or within negative regulation of necroptotic process. Predicted to be located in cytoplasmic side of plasma membrane and cytosol. Predicted to be part of CD40 receptor complex and LUBAC complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in immunodeficiency 115. Orthologous to human RNF31 (ring finger protein 31).

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in rat Rnf31 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
