RING finger, HC subclass, found in Saccharomyces cerevisiae translation termination inhibitor protein ITT1 and similar proteins
ITT1 is a protein that modulates the efficiency of translation termination, resulting in the readthrough of all three types of nonsense codons UAA, UAG and UGA. ITT1 contains a typical C3HC4-type RING-HC finger.
Comment:C3HC4-type RING-HC finger consensus motif: C-X2-C-X(9-39)-C-X(1-3)-H-X(2-3)-C-X2-C-X(4-48)-C-X2-C, where X is any amino acid and the number of X residues varies in different fingers
Comment:A RING finger typically binds two zinc atoms, with its Cys and/or His side chains in a unique "cross-brace" arrangement.
