Biology:RNF10

Short description: Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens

Generic protein structure example

RING finger protein 10 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RNF10 gene.

Function

The protein encoded by this gene contains a ring finger motif, which is known to be involved in protein-protein interactions. The specific function of this protein has not yet been determined. EST data suggests the existence of multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants, however, their full length nature is not known.
