Human Gene UBR1 (ENST00000290650.9) from GENCODE V44
Description: Homo sapiens ubiquitin protein ligase E3 component n-recognin 1 (UBR1), mRNA. (from RefSeq NM_174916) RefSeq Summary (NM_174916): The N-end rule pathway is one proteolytic pathway of the ubiquitin system. The recognition component of this pathway, encoded by this gene, binds to a destabilizing N-terminal residue of a substrate protein and participates in the formation of a substrate-linked multiubiquitin chain. This leads to the eventual degradation of the substrate protein. The protein described in this record has a RING-type zinc finger and a UBR-type zinc finger. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Johanson-Blizzard syndrome. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]. Gencode Transcript: ENST00000290650.9 Gencode Gene: ENSG00000159459.12 Transcript (Including UTRs) Position: hg38 chr15:42,942,897-43,106,038 Size: 163,142 Total Exon Count: 47 Strand: - Coding Region Position: hg38 chr15:42,945,329-43,106,022 Size: 160,694 Coding Exon Count: 47
ID:UBR1_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase UBR1; EC=6.3.2.-; AltName: Full=N-recognin-1; AltName: Full=Ubiquitin-protein ligase E3-alpha-1; AltName: Full=Ubiquitin-protein ligase E3-alpha-I; FUNCTION: E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase which is a component of the N-end rule pathway. Recognizes and binds to proteins bearing specific N-terminal residues that are destabilizing according to the N-end rule, leading to their ubiquitination and subsequent degradation. May be involved in pancreatic homeostasis. Binds leucine and is a negative regulator of the leucine-mTOR signaling pathway, thereby controlling cell growth. PATHWAY: Protein modification; protein ubiquitination. SUBUNIT: Interacts with RECQL4. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm, cytosol. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Broadly expressed, with highest levels in skeletal muscle, kidney and pancreas. Present in acinar cells of the pancreas (at protein level). DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Expressed in fetal pancreas. DOMAIN: The RING-H2 zinc finger is an atypical RING finger with a His ligand in place of the fourth Cys of the classical motif. PTM: Phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR. DISEASE: Defects in UBR1 are a cause of Johanson-Blizzard syndrome (JBS) [MIM:243800]. This disorder includes congenital exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, multiple malformations such as nasal wing aplasia, and frequent mental retardation. Pancreas of individuals with JBS do not express UBR1 and show intrauterine- onset destructive pancreatitis. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the UBR1 family. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 RING-type zinc finger. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 UBR-type zinc finger. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=BAB55380.1; Type=Erroneous initiation;
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
