... the forming midgut tube. The establishment of maximal dorsoventral distances from one another, and anteroposterior alignments, lead to the equidistant coverage of the midgut with longitudinal muscle fibers. We identify Teyrha-Meyhra (Tey), a tissue-specific nuclear factor related to the RNF220 domain protein...

... to various disorders, including the cerebellar cancer medulloblastoma (MB). We recently identified RNF220, a ubiquitin E3 ligase promoting K63-linked polyubiquitylation and nuclear exportation of Gli transcription factors, as an Shh/Gli regulator involved in ventral neural patterning. Here, we report...

... during development of the locus coeruleus (LC), the main noradrenergic (NA) neuron center in the mammalian brain. The ubiquitin E3 ligase Rnf220 and its cofactor Zc4h2 participate in ventral neural tube patterning by modulating Shh/Gli signaling, and ZC4H2 mutation is associated with intellectual...

... transcription factors. However, regulation of their protein stability remains incompletely understood. Here, we show that RNF220, an E3 ubiquitin ligase, plays crucial roles in the generation of the ventral progenitor domains, which produce ventral interneurons and motor neurons, by targeting key transcription...
