RNF216

protein-coding

ring finger protein 216, the group of MicroRNA protein coding host genes|Ring finger proteins|RBR E3 ubiquitin ligases

Gene summary

This gene encodes a cytoplasmic protein which specifically colocalizes and interacts with the serine/threonine protein kinase, receptor-interacting protein (RIP). Zinc finger domains of the encoded protein are required for its interaction with RIP and for inhibition of TNF- and IL1-induced NF-kappa B activation pathways. The encoded protein may also function as an E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase which accepts ubiquitin from E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes and transfers it to substrates. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this locus but the full-length natures of only some are known. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Manifestation: Endocrine; Neurologic

Rationale: Individuals have been described with response to medical treatment (eg, exogenous GnRH therapy), though with progressive loss of pituitary function such that response to treatment decreased and was lost later in the course of disease

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_207111.4. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Isoform 1 acts as an E3 ubiquitin ligase, which accepts ubiquitin from specific E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes, and then transfers it to substrates promoting their degradation by the proteasome. Promotes degradation of TRAF3, TLR4 and TLR9. Contributes to the regulation of antiviral responses. Down- regulates activation of NF-kappa-B, IRF3 activation and IFNB production. Isoform 3 inhibits TNF and IL-1 mediated activation of NF-kappa-B. Promotes TNF and RIP mediated apoptosis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15107846, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19893624}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Gordon Holmes syndrome (GDHS) [MIM:212840]: A disease characterized by cerebellar symptoms and signs of sex steroid deficiency. Clinical features include cerebellar and brain stem atrophy, cerebellar ataxia, hypothalamic LHRH deficiency, hypogonadotrophic hypogonadism, lack of secondary sexual characteristics, and infertility. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23656588}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
