| Background Information | ITCH is an E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that accepts ubiquitin from an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme in the form of a thioester and then directly transfers the ubiquitin to targeted substrates. ITCH regulates the transcriptional activity of several transcription factors including the hematopoietic transcription factor NF-E2, and may play an important role in the regulation of immune response. ITCH down-regulates Epstein-Barr virus LMP2A activity in B cell signaling, and also interacts with NOTCH1, OCLN, JUN, and JUNB. ITCH has a wide tissue distribution and is localized within the nucleus and cytoplasm. Two ITCH splice variants have been described; an approximately 103 kDa form as well as a truncated form (~98 kDa) lacking 42 amino acids in the N-terminal half of the protein. ITCH contains a MAP Kinase binding site and its activity is modulated by phosphorylation at multiple threonine residues by JNK1. |

| Entrez Gene Number |
|
| Entrez Gene Summary | Atrophin-1 contains a polyglutamine repeat, expansion of which is responsible for dentatorubral and pallidoluysian atrophy. The protein encoded by this gene interacts with atrophin-1. This encoded protein is a closely related member of the NEDD4-like protein family. This family of proteins are E3 ubiquitin-ligase molecules and regulate key trafficking decisions, including targeting of proteins to proteosomes or lysosomes. This encoded protein contains four tandem WW domains and a HECT (homologous to the E6-associated protein carboxyl terminus) domain. It can act as a transcriptional corepressor of p45/NFE2 and may participate in the regulation of immune responses by modifying Notch-mediated signaling. It is highly similar to the mouse Itch protein, which has been implicated in the regulation and differentiation of erythroid and lymphoid cells. |
