Summary

The protein encoded by this gene has ubiquitin ligase activity. It mediates E3-dependent ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of target proteins, including tumor protein 53, histone deacetylase 1, and cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1B, thus regulating their levels and cell cycle progression. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2013]

Forensic Context

A study in mice demonstrated that chronic methamphetamine administration significantly dysregulated the RCHY1 in cortical microglia, as part of widespread alterations in the ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis pathway [Oladapo et al. DOI:10.3390/Ijms26020649].
