ID:SMUF2_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase SMURF2; Short=hSMURF2; EC=6.3.2.-; AltName: Full=SMAD ubiquitination regulatory factor 2; AltName: Full=SMAD-specific E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase 2; FUNCTION: E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase which accepts ubiquitin from an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme in the form of a thioester and then directly transfers the ubiquitin to targeted substrates. Interacts with SMAD1 and SMAD7 in order to trigger their ubiquitination and proteasome-dependent degradation. In addition, interaction with SMAD7 activates autocatalytic degradation, which is prevented by interaction with SCYE1. Forms a stable complex with the TGF-beta receptor-mediated phosphorylated SMAD2 and SMAD3. In this way, SMAD2 may recruit substrates, such as SNON, for ubiquitin-mediated degradation. Enhances the inhibitory activity of SMAD7 and reduces the transcriptional activity of SMAD2. Coexpression of SMURF2 with SMAD1 results in considerable decrease in steady-state level of SMAD1 protein and a smaller decrease of SMAD2 level. ENZYME REGULATION: Activated by NDFIP1- and NDFIP2-binding. PATHWAY: Protein modification; protein ubiquitination. SUBUNIT: Interacts (via WW domains) with SMAD1. Interacts (via WW domains) with SMAD2 (via PY-motif). Interacts (via WW domains) with SMAD3 (via PY-motif). Interacts with SMAD6. Interacts with SMAD7 (via PY-motif) and TGFBR1; SMAD7 recruits SMURF2 to the TGF- beta receptor and regulates its degradation. Does not interact with SMAD4; SMAD4 lacks a PY-motif. Interacts with AIMP1. Interacts with STAMBP and RNF11. Interacts with NDFIP1 and NDFIP2 (Probable); this interaction activates the E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase. INTERACTION: Self; NbExp=5; IntAct=EBI-396727, EBI-396727; Q9Y3C5:RNF11; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-396727, EBI-396669; P0CG47:UBB; NbExp=4; IntAct=EBI-396727, EBI-413034; SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Cell membrane. Membrane raft. Note=Cytoplasmic in the presence of SMAD7. Co-localizes with CAV1, SMAD7 and TGF-beta receptor in membrane rafts. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Widely expressed. DOMAIN: The second and third WW domains are responsible for interaction with the PY-motif of R-SMAD (SMAD1, SMAD2 and SMAD3). DOMAIN: The C2 domain is involved in autoinhibition of the catalytic activity by interacting with the HECT domain. PTM: Auto-ubiquitinated and ubiquitinated in the presence of RNF11 and UBE2D1. Ubiquitinated by the SCF(FBXL15) complex, leading to its degradation by the proteasome. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 C2 domain. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 HECT (E6AP-type E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase) domain. SIMILARITY: Contains 3 WW domains.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
