Gene: RLIM
Alternate names for this Gene: MRX61|NY-REN-43|RNF12|TOKAS
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a RING-H2 zinc finger protein. It has been shown to be an E3 ubiquitin protein ligase that targets LIM domain binding 1 (LDB1/CLIM), and causes proteasome-dependent degradation of LDB1. This protein and LDB1 are co-repressors of LHX1/LIM-1, a homeodomain transcription factor. Multiple alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been identified.
Gene is located in Chromosome: X
Location in Chromosome : Xq13.2
Description of this Gene: ring finger protein, LIM domain interacting
Type of Gene: protein-coding
