cd16732: RING-HC_MKRN4 
RING finger, HC subclass, found in makorin-4 (MKRN4) and similar proteins
MKRN4, also known as makorin RING finger protein pseudogene 4, makorin RING finger protein pseudogene 5, RING finger protein 64 (RNF64), zinc finger protein 127-Xp (ZNF127-Xp), or zinc finger protein 127-like 1, is a new divergent member of the makorin protein family in vertebrates. It may have an ancestral gonad-specific function and maternal embryonic expression before duplication in vertebrates. MKRN4 contains typical arrays of one to four C3H1-type zinc fingers, a motif rich in Cys and His residues (CH) and a C3HC4-type RING-HC finger. The RING-HC finger of mammalian MKRN4 shows high sequence similarity with that of MKRN3, and is not included in this model.

Evidence:
  • Comment:based on the structures of other RING-HC fingers with bound zinc
  • 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.
