ID:MUL1_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Mitochondrial ubiquitin ligase activator of NFKB 1; EC=6.3.2.-; AltName: Full=E3 SUMO-protein ligase MUL1; AltName: Full=E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase MUL1; AltName: Full=Growth inhibition and death E3 ligase; AltName: Full=Mitochondrial-anchored protein ligase; Short=MAPL; AltName: Full=Putative NF-kappa-B-activating protein 266; AltName: Full=RING finger protein 218; FUNCTION: Exhibits weak E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase activity, but preferentially acts as a SUMO E3 ligase at physiological concentrations. Plays a role in the control of mitochondrial morphology. Promotes mitochondrial fragmentation and influences mitochondrial localization. Inhibits cell growth. When overexpressed, activates JNK through MAP3K7/TAK1 and induces caspase-dependent apoptosis. E3 ubiquitin ligases accept ubiquitin from an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme in the form of a thioester and then directly transfer the ubiquitin to targeted substrates. PATHWAY: Protein modification; protein ubiquitination. PATHWAY: Protein modification; protein sumoylation. SUBUNIT: Homooligomer. Interacts with MAP3K7/TAK1. Interacts with UBC9. Interacts with and sumoylates DNM1L. INTERACTION: Q92624:APPBP2; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-744120, EBI-743771; SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Mitochondrion outer membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Peroxisome. Note=Transported in mitochondrion- derived vesicles from the mitochondrion to the peroxisome. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Widely expressed with highest levels in the heart, skeletal muscle, placenta, kidney and liver. Barely detectable in colon and thymus. DOMAIN: The zinc finger domain is required for E3 ligase activity. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 RING-type zinc finger.
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.
