  • Comment: This article is too short to give the reader an understanding of the topic. To start, it does not state what regnase-1 is, simply how it was found. Also, the cited sources appear to be primary research, not yet validated by other studies, so, per WP:MEDRS, these are not acceptable sources. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 19:46, 29 January 2024 (UTC)

Regnase-1 (MCPIP-1, ZC3H12A) is a protien that was first discovered in human peripheral blood monocytes treated the chemotactic protein MCP-1[1]. The protein contains an N-terminal domain, a PilT N-terminus like (PIN) domain, a zinc finger domain, a ubiquitin domain and a C-terminal domain. Two emerging functions of this protein include RNase-cleaving activity (PIN domain) and the control of ubiquitination. Regnase-1 also has implications in cell differentiation, apoptosis, and regulating inflammation[2].

Regulation of inflammation[edit]

NFκB is well known to induce proinflammatory cytokines. Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) induce NFκB activation via mechanisms that utilize ubiquitylation of RIP1 and TRAF6. Recent studies have shown that Regnase-1 disrupts this ubiquitylation thereby blocking activation of NFκB and its downstream cytokines[3].

Regulation of apoptosis[edit]
