RING finger, H2 subclass, found in Arabidopsis thaliana RING-H2 zinc finger protein RHF2A and similar proteins
RHF2A is an E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase involved in the positive regulation of the gametogenesis progression. It is required for the degradation of KRP6, a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor which accumulates during meiosis and blocks the progression of subsequent mitoses during gametophytes development. It functions in association with RHF1A. Members of this subfamily contain a C3H2C3-type RING-H2 finger.
Comment:C3H2C3-type RING-H2 finger consensus motif: C-X2-C-X(9-39)-C-X(1-3)-H-X(2-3)-H-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.
