Cancer tissues displayed weak to moderate cytoplasmic staining with additional membranous positivity in many tissues. Strong staining was observed in a few cases of testicular, colorectal, prostate, cervical, endometrial and urothelial cancers.
Cancer tissues displayed weak to moderate cytoplasmic positivity. Strong staining was observed in a few renal and liver cancers. Several cervical and skin cancers were negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
TRIM26 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
RNF95, ZNF173
Description
Tripartite motif containing 26 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the tripartite motif (TRIM) family. The TRIM motif includes three zinc-binding domains, a RING, a B-box type 1 and a B-box type 2, and a coiled-coil region. The protein localizes to cytoplasmic bodies. Although the function of the protein is unknown, the RING domain suggests that the protein may have DNA-binding activity. The gene localizes to the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I region on chromosome 6. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.
