Summary
RNF167 (ring finger protein 167, HGNC:24544) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 17p13.2, encoding E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase RNF167 (Q9H6Y7). E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that acts as a regulator of the TORC1 signaling pathway.
RNF167 is an E3 ubiquitin ligase that interacts with TSSC5 (SLC22A18; MIM 602631) and, together with UBCH6 (UBE2E1; MIM 602916), facilitates TSSC5 polyubiquitylation (Yamada and Gorbsky, 2006 [PubMed 16314844]).

Function. E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that acts as a regulator of the TORC1 signaling pathway. Positively regulates the TORC1 signaling pathway independently of arginine levels: acts by catalyzing ‘Lys-29’-polyubiquitination and degradation of CASTOR1, releasing the GATOR2 complex from CASTOR1. Also negatively regulates the TORC1 signaling pathway in response to leucine deprivation: acts by mediating ‘Lys-63’-linked polyubiquitination of SESN2, promoting SESN2-interaction with the GATOR2 complex. Also involved in protein trafficking and localization. Acts as a regulator of synaptic transmission by mediating ubiquitination and degradation of AMPAR receptor GluA2/GRIA2. Does not catalyze ubiquitination of GluA1/GRIA1. Also acts as a regulator of the recycling endosome pathway by mediating ubiquitination of VAMP3. Regulates lysosome positioning by catalyzing ubiquitination and degradation of ARL8B. Plays a role in growth regulation involved in G1/S transition by mediating, possibly by mediating ubiquitination of SLC22A18. Acts with a limited set of E2 enzymes, such as UBE2D1 and UBE2N.
Subcellular location. Lysosome membrane. Endosome membrane. Endomembrane system. Cell membrane Lysosome membrane Cytoplasm. Cytosol.
Tissue specificity. Widely expressed. Strongly expressed in the kidney, pancreas, testis and liver (at protein level).
Post-translational modifications. Autoubiquitinated in vitro in the presence of UBE2D1 and UBE2E1.
Pathway. Protein modification; protein ubiquitination.
Similarity. Belongs to the Godzilla family.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 75 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
