Abstract
Mammalian DNA duplexes are highly condensed with different components, including histones, enabling chromatin formation. Chromatin remodeling is involved in multiple biological processes, including gene transcription regulation and DNA damage repair. Recent research has highlighted the significant involvement of really interesting new gene (RING) finger proteins in chromatin remodeling, primarily attributed to their E3 ubiquitin ligase activities. In this review, we highlight the pivotal role of RING finger proteins in chromatin remodeling and provide an overview oftheir capacity to ubiquitinate specific histones, modulate ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling complexesand interact with various histone post-translational modifications. We also discuss the diverse biological effects of RING finger protein-mediated chromatin remodeling and explore potential therapeutic strategies for targeting these proteins.
