ISG15

The protein encoded by this gene is a ubiquitin-like protein that is conjugated to intracellular target proteins upon activation by interferon-alpha and interferon-beta. Several functions have been ascribed to the encoded protein, including chemotactic activity towards neutrophils, direction of ligated target proteins to intermediate filaments, cell-to-cell signaling, and antiviral activity during viral infections. While conjugates of this protein have been found to be noncovalently attached to intermediate filaments, this protein is sometimes secreted.

Interaction

Homodimer; disulfide-linked (PubMed:2440890). Interacts with, and is conjugated to its targets by UBE1L (E1 enzyme) and UBE2E2 (E2 enzyme) (PubMed:11157743, PubMed:15131269). Interacts with NEDD4 (PubMed:18305167). (Microbial infection) Interacts with vaccinia virus protein E3. (Microbial infection) Interaction with influenza B NS1 protein inhibits its conjugation.
