NCIt synonyms : TRAF6; Interleukin 1 Signal Transducer; E3 Ubiquitin-Protein Ligase TRAF6; Interleukin-1 Signal Transducer; EC 6.3.2.-, Formerly; RING Finger Protein 85; TNF Receptor-Associated Factor-6; EC 2.3.2.27;
NCIt definition : TNF receptor-associated factor 6 (522 aa, 60 kDa) is encoded by the human TRAF6 gene.
This protein is involved in polyubiquitination of protein substrates.;
NCIt note : TNF receptor-associated factor 6 contains a MATH domain, a RING-type zinc finger,
2 TRAF-type zinc fingers, and a coiled coil domain that mediates homo- and hetero-oligomerization.
The MATH/TRAF domain binds to receptor cytoplasmic domains.;
