The binding of cholic acid to protein in rat serum and liver.

abstract：:Terf/TRIM17 is a tripartite motif protein that has been originally isolated from testis. Terf has been characterized to exhibit an E3 ubiquitin ligase activity and to undergo self-ubiquitination. The cellular function of terf and its substrates, however, remain elusive. In the present study, we performed a yeast two-h...
