Tripartite motif-containing 50 also known as TRIM50 is a human gene. TRIM50 encodes an E3 ubiquitin ligase. The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the tripartite motif (TRIM) family also called the ‘RING-B-box-coiled-coil’ (RBCC) subgroup of RING finger proteins. The gene is located at 7q11.23 near two homologous genes TRIM73 and TRIM74. TRIM50 is deleted in Williams syndrome a multisystem developmental disorder caused by the deletion of contiguous genes at 7q11.23.
