TAIR Computational Description | COP1-interacting protein 8;(source:Araport11) |
TAIR Curator Summary | Encodes a RING-H2 protein that interacts with the RING finger domain of COP1. CIP8 exhibits a strong interaction with the E2 ubiquitin conjugating enzyme AtUBC8 through its N-terminal domain and promotes ubiquitination in an E2-dependent fashion in vitro. It is possible that the AtUBC8-CIP8 module might interact with COP1 in vivo, thereby participating in proteasome-mediated degradation of HY5. |
