Biological function summary
RING2/RNF2/RING1B regulates gene expression by modifying chromatin structure especially through monoubiquitination of histone H2A at lysine 119. This action occurs within the Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 a multiprotein structure important for maintaining the transcriptional repression of target genes. It influences cell cycle progression and development by silencing genes involved in proliferation and differentiation.
Pathways
RING2/RNF2/RING1B's role connects to the Polycomb group (PcG) pathway and the Wnt signaling pathway. Within these pathways it interacts with proteins like BMI1 and EZH2 which are other components of polycomb complexes. These interactions help modulate chromatin dynamics and control the expression of several genes involved in cell identity and development.

Function
E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that mediates monoubiquitination of 'Lys-119' of histone H2A (H2AK119Ub), thereby playing a central role in histone code and gene regulation (PubMed : 15386022, PubMed : 16359901, PubMed : 21772249, PubMed : 25355358, PubMed : 25519132, PubMed : 26151332, PubMed : 33864376). H2AK119Ub gives a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional repression and participates in X chromosome inactivation of female mammals. May be involved in the initiation of both imprinted and random X inactivation (By similarity). Essential component of a Polycomb group (PcG) multiprotein PRC1-like complex, a complex class required to maintain the transcriptionally repressive state of many genes, including Hox genes, throughout development (PubMed : 16359901, PubMed : 26151332). PcG PRC1 complex acts via chromatin remodeling and modification of histones, rendering chromatin heritably changed in its expressibility (PubMed : 26151332). E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase activity is enhanced by BMI1/PCGF4 (PubMed : 21772249). Acts as the main E3 ubiquitin ligase on histone H2A of the PRC1 complex, while RING1 may rather act as a modulator of RNF2/RING2 activity (Probable). Association with the chromosomal DNA is cell-cycle dependent. In resting B- and T-lymphocytes, interaction with AURKB leads to block its activity, thereby maintaining transcription in resting lymphocytes (By similarity). Also acts as a negative regulator of autophagy by mediating ubiquitination of AMBRA1, leading to its subsequent degradation (By similarity).
Post-translational modifications
Monoubiquitinated, by auto-ubiquitination (By similarity). Polyubiquitinated in the presence of UBE2D3 (in vitro) (PubMed:26151332).
