Description
RNF167 encodes a RING finger domain-containing E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase. The protein localizes to endosomes and the plasma membrane, where it ubiquitinates substrates involved in endosomal trafficking, receptor sorting, and immune signaling. RNF167 is implicated in the regulation of Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling and autophagy.

Protein Summary
RNF167 is a 303-amino acid E3 ubiquitin ligase with a RING-type zinc finger domain. It mediates ubiquitination of target proteins, influencing their degradation or trafficking. The protein is anchored to membranes via a C-terminal transmembrane domain and is predominantly found in endosomes. Its activity modulates TLR signaling and endocytic recycling.
