Background
The Itchy E3 ubiquitin protein ligase (ITCH) is a member of the Nedd4 family of HECT domain E3 ubiquitin ligases (1) . HECT domain E3 ubiquitin ligases transfer ubiquitin from E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes to protein substrates, thus targeting specific proteins for lysosomal degradation. ITCH plays a role in multiple cellular processes including erythroid and lymphoid cell differentiation and the regulation of immune responses (2) . In B cells, ITCH is thought to associate with latent membrane protein 2A (LMP2A) of Epstein-Barr virus, specifically down-regulating its activity in B cell signaling (3) . Mutations in this gene are a cause of syndromic multisystem autoimmune disease (4) .
