abstractText | The RING finger (C3HC4-type zinc finger) is a variant zinc finger motif presents in a new family of proteins. A new member of the RING finger family was identified and its cDNA structures were determined in human and mouse. The predicted protein consisting of a 144 amino acid residues is very conservative between the two species and contains a canonical RING-H2 finger motif (C3H2C2) at the carboxyl-terminal region. The genes were designated as RNF11/Rnf11 for RING finger protein 11. A single 2.4-kb transcript of mouse Rnf11 was ubiquitously expressed in various fetal and adult mouse tissues by the Northern blot analysis. The human RNF11 gene was mapped on chromosome 1p31-p32 region, where frequent alterations have been observed in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. |
