Facts about E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase RNF168.
Recruited to sites of DNA damage at double-strand breaks (DSBs) by binding to ubiquitinated histone H2A and H2AX and amplifies the RNF8- dependent H2A ubiquitination, promoting the creation of'Lys-63'- linked ubiquitin conjugates. This leads to focus ubiquitinated histones H2A and H2AX in DNA lesions to the threshold necessary for recruitment of TP53BP1 and BRCA1.
