Summary

This gene encodes a member of the tripartite motif (TRIM) family. The TRIM motif includes three zinc-binding domains, a RING, a B-box type 1 and a B-box type 2, and a coiled-coil region. This gene is located on chromosome 13 within the minimal deletion region for B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene.

Forensic Context

A study in human myocardial samples from explanted hearts demonstrated that the TRIM13 mRNA expression was significantly upregulated in dilated cardiomyopathy (8.16-fold, p < 0.0002) and ischemic cardiomyopathy (4.33-fold, p < 0.002) compared to a healthy control group, while direct sequencing of all seven exons of the gene revealed no mutations in the patient samples [Tatrai et al.
