TNFAIP1

TNFAIP1 was identified as a gene whose expression can be induced by the tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF) in umbilical vein endothelial cells. Studies of a similar gene in mouse suggest that the expression of TNFAIP1 is developmentally regulated in a tissue-specific manner.

TNF Alpha Induced Protein 1

Substrate-specific adapter of a BCR (BTB-CUL3-RBX1) E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complex involved in regulation of cytoskeleton structure. The BCR(TNFAIP1) E3 ubiquitin ligase complex mediates the ubiquitination of RHOA, leading to its degradation by the proteasome, thereby regulating the actin cytoskeleton and cell migration. Its interaction with RHOB may regulate apoptosis. May enhance the PCNA-dependent DNA polymerase delta activity.

Colocalizes with RHOB in endosomes.

Phosphorylation at Ser-280 by CK2 facilitates the nucleus localization and increases interaction with PCNA.
