B-box-type 2 zinc finger found in muscle-specific RING finger protein 2 (MuRF-2) and similar proteins; MuRF-2, also known as tripartite motif-containing protein 55 (TRIM55) or RING finger protein 29 (RNF29), is a muscle-specific E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase in ubiquitin-mediated muscle protein turnover and also a ligand of the transactivation domain of the serum response transcription factor (SRF). It is predominantly slow-fibre associated and highly expressed in embryonic skeletal muscle. MuRF-2 associates transiently with microtubules, myosin, and titin during sarcomere assembly. It has been implicated in microtubule, intermediate filament, and sarcomeric M-line maintenance in striated muscle development, as well as in signalling from the sarcomere to the nucleus. It plays an important role in the earliest stages of skeletal muscle differentiation and myofibrillogenesis. It is developmentally downregulated and is assembled at the M-line region of the sarcomere and with microtubules. MuRF-2 belongs to the C-II subclass of TRIM (tripartite motif) family of proteins that are defined by their N-terminal RBCC (RING, Bbox, and coiled coil) domains, including three consecutive zinc-binding domains, a RING finger, Bbox2, and a coiled coil region, as well as a COS (carboxyl-terminal subgroup one signature) box, and an acidic residue-rich (AR) domain. It also harbors a MURF family-specific conserved box (MFC) between its RING-HC finger and Bbox domains. The type 2 B-box (Bbox2) zinc finger is characterized by a CHC3H2 zinc-binding consensus motif.

B-box-type 2 zinc finger found in muscle-specific RING finger protein (MuRF) family; This family corresponds to a group of striated muscle-specific tripartite motif (TRIM) proteins, including TRIM63/MuRF-1, TRIM55/MuRF-2, and TRIM54/MuRF-3, which function as E3 ubiquitin ligases in ubiquitin-mediated muscle protein turnover. They are tightly developmentally regulated in skeletal muscle and associate with different cytoskeleton components, such as microtubules, Z-disks and M-bands, as well as with metabolic enzymes and nuclear proteins. They also cooperate with diverse proteins implicated in selective protein degradation by the proteasome and autophagosome, and target proteins of metabolic regulation, sarcomere assembly and transcriptional regulation. Moreover, MURFs display variable fibre-type preferences. TRIM63/MuRF-1 is predominantly fast (type II) fibre-associated in skeletal muscle. TRIM55/MuRF-2 is predominantly slow-fibre associated. TRIM54/MuRF-3 is ubiquitously present. They play an active role in microtubule-mediated sarcomere assembly. MuRFs belong to the C-II subclass of TRIM (tripartite motif) family of proteins that are defined by their N-terminal RBCC (RING, Bbox, and coiled coil) domains, including three consecutive zinc-binding domains, a RING finger, Bbox2, and a coiled coil region, as well as a COS (carboxyl-terminal subgroup one signature) box, and an acidic residue-rich (AR) domain positioned C-terminal to the RBCC domain. They also harbor a MURF family-specific conserved box (MFC) between its RING-HC finger and Bbox domains. The type 2 B-box (Bbox2) zinc finger is characterized by a CHC3H2 zinc-binding consensus motif.

B-box-type zinc finger superfamily; The B-box-type zinc finger is a short zinc binding domain of around 40 amino acid residues in length. It has been found in transcription factors, ribonucleoproteins and proto-oncoproteins, such as in TRIM (tripartite motif) proteins that consist of an N-terminal RING finger (originally called an A-box), followed by 1-2 B-box domains and a coiled-coil domain (also called RBCC for Ring, B-box, Coiled-Coil). The B-box-type zinc finger often presents in combination with other motifs, like RING zinc finger, NHL motif, coiled-coil or RFP domain in functionally unrelated proteins, most likely mediating protein-protein interactions. Based on different consensus sequences and the spacing of the 7-8 zinc-binding residues, B-box-type zinc fingers can be divided into two groups, type 1 (Bbox1: C6H2) and type 2 (Bbox2: CHC3H2).

B-box-type 2 zinc finger found in midline-2 (MID2) and similar proteins; MID2, also known as midin-2, midline defect 2, RING finger protein 60 (RNF60), or tripartite motif-containing protein 1 (TRIM1), is a probable E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that is highly related to MID1 that associate with cytoplasmic microtubules along their length and throughout the cell cycle. Like MID1, MID2 associates with the microtubule network and may at least partially compensate for the loss of MID1. Both MID1 and MID2 interacts with Alpha 4, which is a regulatory subunit of PP2-type phosphatases, such as PP2A, and an integral component of the rapamycin-sensitive signaling pathway. MID2 can also substitute for MID1 to control exocytosis of lytic granules in cytotoxic T cells. It heterodimerizes in vitro with its paralog MID1. Loss-of-function mutations in MID2 lead to the human X-linked intellectual disability (XLID). MID2 belongs to the C-I subclass of TRIM (tripartite motif) family of proteins that are defined by their N-terminal RBCC (RING, Bbox, and coiled coil) domains, including three consecutive zinc-binding domains, a RING finger, Bbox1 and Bbox2, and a coiled coil region, as well as a COS (carboxy-terminal subgroup one signature) box, a fibronectin type III (FN3) domain, and a B30.2/SPRY (SplA and ryanodine receptor) domain positioned C-terminal to the RBCC domain. The type 2 B-box (Bbox2) zinc finger is characterized by a CHC3H2 zinc-binding consensus motif.

B-box-type 2 zinc finger found in tripartite motif-containing protein 46 (TRIM46) and similar proteins; TRIM46, also known as gene Y protein (GeneY) or tripartite, fibronectin type-III and C-terminal SPRY motif protein (TRIFIC), is a microtubule-associated protein that specifically localizes to the proximal axon, partly overlaps with the axon initial segment (AIS) at later stages, and organizes uniform microtubule orientation in axons. It controls neuronal polarity and axon specification by driving the formation of parallel microtubule arrays. TRIM46 belongs to the C-I subclass of TRIM (tripartite motif) family of proteins, which are defined by their N-terminal RBCC (RING, Bbox, and coiled coil) domains, including three consecutive zinc-binding domains, a RING finger, Bbox1 and Bbox2, and a coiled coil region, as well as a COS (carboxyl-terminal subgroup one signature) box, a fibronectin type III (FN3) domain, and a B30.2/SPRY (SplA and ryanodine receptor) domain positioned C-terminal to the RBCC domain.

B-box-type 2 zinc finger found in tripartite motif-containing proteins, TRIM9, TRIM67 and similar proteins; This family includes a group of tripartite motif-containing proteins including TRIM9 and TRIM67, both of which belong to the C-I subclass of TRIM (tripartite motif) family of proteins that are defined by their N-terminal RBCC (RING, Bbox, and coiled coil) domains, consisting of three consecutive zinc-binding domains, a RING finger, Bbox1 and Bbox2, and a coiled coil region, as well as a COS (carboxyl-terminal subgroup one signature) box, a fibronectin type III (FN3) domain, and a B30.2/SPRY (SplA and ryanodine receptor) domain positioned C-terminal to the RBCC domain. The type 2 B-box (Bbox2) zinc finger is characterized by a CHC3H2 zinc-binding consensus motif. TRIM9 (the human ortholog of rat Spring), also known as RING finger protein 91 (RNF91), is a brain-specific E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase collaborating with an E2 ubiquitin conjugating enzyme UBCH5b. It plays an important role in the regulation of neuronal functions and participates in neurodegenerative disorders through its ligase activity. TRIM67, also termed TRIM9-like protein (TNL), is a protein selectively expressed in the cerebellum. It interacts with PRG-1, an important molecule in the control of hippocampal excitability dependent on presynaptic LPA2 receptor signaling, and 80K-H (also known as glucosidase II beta), a protein kinase C substrate. It negatively regulates Ras signaling in cell proliferation via degradation of 80K-H, leading to neural differentiation including neuritogenesis.

B-box-type 2 zinc finger found in tripartite motif-containing protein 71 (TRIM71) and similar proteins; TRIM71, also known as protein lineage variant 41 (lin-41), is an E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that may play essential roles in embryonic stem cells, cellular reprogramming, and the timing of embryonic neurogenesis. It was first identified in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans as a target of the differentiation-associated microRNA (miRNA) let-7 (lethal 7), and therefore part of a heterochronic gene network that controls larval development. In humans, it regulates let-7 microRNA biogenesis via modulation of Lin28B protein polyubiquitination. TRIM71 localizes to cytoplasmic P-bodies and directly interacts with the miRNA pathway proteins Argonaute 2 (AGO2) and DICER. It represses miRNA activity by promoting degradative ubiquitination of AGO2. Moreover, TRIM71 associates with SHCBP1, a novel component of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling pathway, and regulates its non-degradative polyubiquitination. It is also involved in the post-transcriptional regulation of the CDKN1A, RBL1 and RBL2 or EGR1 mRNAs through mediating RNA-binding in embryonic stem cells. TRIM71 belongs to the C-VII subclass of TRIM (tripartite motif)-NHL family that is defined by their N-terminal RBCC (RING, Bbox, and coiled coil) domains, including three consecutive zinc-binding domains, a RING finger, Bbox1 and Bbox2, and a coiled coil domain, as well as a NHL (named after proteins NCL-1, HT2A and Lin-41 that contain repeats folded into a six-bladed beta propeller) repeat domain positioned C-terminal to the RBCC domain. The type 2 B-box (Bbox2) zinc finger is characterized by a CHC3H2 zinc-binding consensus motif.
