Regnase-1 (MCPIP-1, ZC3H12A) is a protien that was first discovered in human peripheral blood monocytes treated the chemotactic protein MCP-1 [1]. The protein contains an N-terminal domain, a PilT N-terminus like (PIN) domain, a zinc finger domain, a ubiquitin domain and a C-terminal domain. Two emerging functions of this protein include RNase-cleaving activity (PIN domain) and the control of ubiquitination. Regnase-1 also has implications in cell differentiation, apoptosis, and regulating inflammation [2].
NFκB is well known to induce proinflammatory cytokines. Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) induce NFκB activation via mechanisms that utilize ubiquitylation of RIP1 and TRAF6. Recent studies have shown that Regnase-1 disrupts this ubiquitylation thereby blocking activation of NFκB and its downstream cytokines [3].
