Human Gene TRIM55 (uc003xvv.3)
  Description: Homo sapiens tripartite motif containing 55 (TRIM55), transcript variant 1, mRNA.
RefSeq Summary (NM_184085): The protein encoded by this gene contains a RING zinc finger, a motif known to be involved in protein-protein interactions. This protein associates transiently with microtubules, myosin, and titin during muscle sarcomere assembly. It may act as a transient adaptor and plays a regulatory role in the assembly of sarcomeres. Four alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].

FUNCTION: May regulate gene expression and protein turnover in muscle cells (By similarity).
SUBUNIT: Homooligomer and heterooligomer (Probable). Interacts with titin/TTN. Interacts with myosins. Interacts with SQSTM1 and NBR1. Isoform 4 may not able to interact with isoform 1, isoform 2 and isoform 3. Probably interacts with TRIM63 and TRIM54.
INTERACTION: Self; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-2341179, EBI-2341179;
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm (By similarity). Nucleus (By similarity). Note=Nuclear under atrophic conditions and upon mechanical signals. Localizes to the sarcomeric M-band in cardiomyocytes. Colocalizes in part with microtubules (By similarity).
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Highly expressed in muscle. Low-level expression in liver.
SIMILARITY: Contains 1 B box-type zinc finger.
SIMILARITY: Contains 1 COS domain.
SIMILARITY: Contains 1 RING-type zinc finger.
CAUTION: It is uncertain whether Met-1 or Met-17 is the initiator.
SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=AAP35876.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Sequence=CAC32839.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Sequence=CAC32840.1; Type=Erroneous initiation;

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.
