GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
MARCH8 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms

Description
Membrane-associated ring finger (C3HC4) 8, E3 ubiquitin protein ligase (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
MARCH8 is a member of the MARCH family of membrane-bound E3 ubiquitin ligases (EC 6.3.2.19). MARCH enzymes add ubiquitin (see MIM 191339) to target lysines in substrate proteins, thereby signaling their vesicular transport between membrane compartments. MARCH8 induces the internalization of several membrane glycoproteins (Goto et al., 2003 [PubMed 12582153]; Bartee et al., 2004 [PubMed 14722266]).[supplied by OMIM, Apr 2010]
