Description | Pirh 2 (P53 induced RING-H2 protein), also known as RCHY1, it forms dimers through its N- and C-terminus in cells. The Pirh2 has ubiquitin-protein ligase activity and it binds with p53 and promotes the ubiquitin-mediated proteosomal degradation of p53. The Pirh2 is oncogenic because loss of p53 function contributes directly to malignant tumor development. Pirh2 expression decreases the level of p53, and a decrease of endogenous Pirh2 expression increases p53 levels. Pirh2 is therefore considered, together with MDM2, to act as a negative regulator of p53 function. |

Function | E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that mediates ubiquitination of target proteins, including p53/TP53, TP73, HDAC1 and CDKN1B (PubMed:16914734, PubMed:17721809, PubMed:18006823, PubMed:19043414, PubMed:19483087, PubMed:21994467). Mediates ubiquitination and degradation of p53/TP53; preferentially acts on tetrameric p53/TP53 (PubMed:19043414, PubMed:19483087). Catalyzes monoubiquitinates the translesion DNA polymerase POLH (PubMed:21791603). Involved in the ribosome-associated quality control (RQC) pathway, which mediates the extraction of incompletely synthesized nascent chains from stalled ribosomes: RCHY1 acts downstream of NEMF and recognizes CAT tails associated with stalled nascent chains, leading to their ubiquitination and degradation (PubMed:33909987). |
