Time to update and fix up this page edit

This will probably become an important page soon. Seem this protein is what activates virus killing inside a cell. As in, big discovery about it. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/science/a-cure-for-the-common-cold-may-finally-be-achieved-as-a-result-of-a-remarkable-discovery-in-a-cambridge-laboratory-2122607.html FX (talk) 15:13, 2 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

Crystal Structure Corrections edit

I went digging for the source of the crystal structure shown on the page, and I noticed it's not actually the complete structure of TRIM21; rather, the globs in the corners are the PRYSPRY domains of two TRIM21 proteins, and the double column in the middle is the Fc domain of an antibody.[1] Is there a particular way to fix this, given that there doesn't seem to be a complete structure of TRIM21?

After reading articles about the subject, i’m pretty sure that TRIM21 is degraded in the process of proteolysis. Unlike as suggested in the wiki.
