TRC8 has a mass of approximately 88 kDa. It is a transmembrane protein found in the endoplasmic reticulum. The presence of its RING finger domain aids in transferring ubiquitin to substrate proteins marking them for proteasomal degradation. TRC8 is expressed in multiple tissues and cells including the liver and prostate suggesting various functional roles.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nTRC8 is involved in the regulation of protein quality control by mediating the degradation of defective proteins within the endoplasmic reticulum. As part of the complex machinery of the ubiquitin-proteasome system TRC8 oversees protein homeostasis assisting in the removal of misfolded or unnecessary proteins to maintain cellular balance. This function impacts several cellular processes and maintains the health of the cell under stress conditions.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nThe TRC8 protein interacts with components of the endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) pathway which is a critical process for maintaining protein balance. TRC8 works alongside other proteins like HRD1 and SEL1L in this pathway to ensure the clearance of defective proteins. It also influences the sterol regulatory element-binding protein (SREBP) pathway impacting cholesterol synthesis and homeostasis.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe role of TRC8 is significant in cancer and genetic syndromes. Mutations or deletions in the TRC8 gene associate with hereditary leiomyomatosis and renal cell cancer (HLRCC) where its interaction with proteins like fumarate hydratase is important. It is also implicated in neurodegenerative disorders where dysfunctional ubiquitin ligase activity impacts neuronal protein homeostasis potentially linked through connections with proteins like Parkin in managing protein aggregations.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46854451691689,"sku":"ab189173","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab189173","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
