Primary Identifier | MGI:2385051 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 17 | NCBI Gene Number | 224762 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables ubiquitin protein ligase activity. Involved in several processes, including antiviral innate immune response; negative regulation of NLRP3 inflammasome complex assembly; and protein K48-linked ubiquitination. Predicted to be located in mitochondrion. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in Peyer's patch; gut; and testis. Orthologous to human TRIM31 (tripartite motif containing 31). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous knockout exacerbates the immune response after induced inflammation and in induced peritonitis and reduces the immune response in induced colitis. [provided by MGI curators] |
