  ID: PJA1_HUMAN
DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase Praja-1; Short=Praja1; EC=6.3.2.-; AltName: Full=RING finger protein 70;
FUNCTION: Has E2-dependent E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase activity. Ubiquitinates MAGED1 antigen leading to its subsequent degradation by proteasome (By similarity). May be involved in protein sorting.
SUBUNIT: Binds ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes (E2s). In vitro, interacts with the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme, UBE2D2.
INTERACTION: Q9Y5V3:MAGED1; NbExp=4; IntAct=EBI-714606, EBI-716006; Q96MG7:NDNL2; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-714606, EBI-2557356;
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in various regions of the brain including the cerebellum, cerebral cortex, medulla, occipital pole, frontal lobe, temporal lobe and putamen. Highest levels in the cerebral cortex.
DOMAIN: The RING-type zinc finger domain interacts with an ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme (E2) and facilitates ubiquitination (By similarity).
PTM: Substrate for E2-dependent ubiquitination.
SIMILARITY: Contains 1 RING-type zinc finger.
SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=BAB13928.1; Type=Erroneous initiation;

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.
