Scope note: Dominio de unión al cinc definido por la secuencia cisteína-X2-cisteína-X(9-39)-cisteína-X(l-3)-His-X(2-3)-cisteína-X2-cisteína-X(4-48)-cisteína-X2-cisteína, en donde X es cualquier aminoácido. El motivo en dedo de tipo RING une dos átomos de cinc, y cada átomo de cinc está unido tetraédricamente, ya sea por cuatro cisteínas o por tres cisteínas y una histidina. El motivo también forma una estructura unitaria con una región central de central en cruz y se encuentra en muchas proteínas que se hallan implicadas en las interacciones entre proteínas. El acrónimo RING representa Really Interesting New Gene.

Scope note: A zinc-binding domain defined by the sequence Cysteine-X2-Cysteine-X(9-39)-Cysteine-X(l-3)-His-X(2-3)-Cysteine-X2-Cysteine -X(4-48)-Cysteine-X2-Cysteine, where X is any amino acid. The RING finger motif binds two atoms of zinc, with each zinc atom ligated tetrahedrally by either four cysteines or three cysteines and a histidine. The motif also forms into a unitary structure with a central cross-brace region and is found in many proteins that are involved in protein-protein interactions. The acronym RING stands for Really Interesting New Gene.
