RNF128 is a type I transmembrane protein that localizes to the endocytic pathway. This protein contains a RING zinc-finger motif and has been shown to possess E3 ubiquitin ligase activity. Expression of RNF128 in retrovirally transduced T cell hybridoma significantly inhibits activation-induced IL2 and IL4 cytokine production. Induced expression of RNF128 was observed in anergic CD4(+) T cells, which suggested a role in the induction of anergic phenotype.The protein encoded by this gene is a type I transmembrane protein that localizes to the endocytic pathway.
