Description
The RING domain of E3 ubiquitin transferase serves as a mediator bringing the ubiquitin-charged E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme and the acceptor protein together to enable the direct transfer of ubiquitin through the formation of an isopeptide bond between the C-terminal glycine residue of ubiquitin an the ε-amino group of an L-lysine residue of the acceptor protein. The RING-E3 domain does not form a catalytic thioester intermediate with ubiquitin (unlike the HECT domain, EC 2.3.2.26). RING-type ubiquitin transferases may occur as single-chain enzymes but also in dimeric forms or in multi-subunit assemblies.
