Tripartite Motif-Containing Protein 28MeSH Descriptor
Preferred Label : Tripartite Motif-Containing Protein 28;
MeSH definition : A tripartite motif protein consisting of an N-terminal RING finger, two B-box type
ZINC FINGERS, and C-terminal PHD domain. It functions as a transcriptional repressor
by associating with Kruppel-association box domain (KRAB domain) transcription factors
and has E3-SUMO-ligase activity towards itself and also sumoylates INTERFERON REGULATORY
FACTOR-7 to reduce its activity as a transcriptional activator. It can also function
as a ubiquitin protein ligase towards TUMOR SUPPRESSOR PROTEIN P53.;
