Enzyme
Enzymes are proteins that catalyze chemical reactions. In enzymatic reactions, the molecules at the beginning of the process, called substrates, are converted into different molecules, called products. Almost all chemical reactions in a biological cell need enzymes in order to occur at rates...

Gene
A gene is a molecular unit of heredity of a living organism. It is a name given to some stretches of DNA and RNA that code for a type of protein or for an RNA chain that has a function in the organism. Living beings depend on genes, as they specify all proteins and functional RNA chains...

Interactions
RING1 has been shown to interactProtein-protein interaction
Protein–protein interactions occur when two or more proteins bind together, often to carry out their biological function. Many of the most important molecular processes in the cell such as DNA replication are carried out by large molecular machines that are built from a large number of protein...
with CBX8
CBX8
Chromobox protein homolog 8 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CBX8 gene.-Interactions:CBX8 has been shown to interact with RING1 and MLLT1.-Further reading:...
, BMI1
BMI1
BMI1 polycomb ring finger oncogene, also known as BMI1, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the BMI1 gene.- Function :BMI1 has been reported as an oncogene by regulating p16 and p19, which are cell cycle inhibitor genes...

RYBP
RING1 and YY1-binding protein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RYBP gene.-Interactions:RYBP has been shown to interact with RING1, YY1, Caspase 10, E2F3, E2F2, Mdm2, Abl gene and CBX2.-Further reading:...
