TRIM59 is a member of the tripartite motif containing (TRIM) protein family. It functions as an E3 ubiquitin ligase through its RING domain and is expressed by multiple types of cells. Physiogically, TRIM59 is involved in development, immune response, and the invasion and metastasis of tumors. In this review, we first describe the structure, expression, and subcellular location of TRIM59. Then, we summarize emerging evidence for TRIM59 in immunological diseases including infection, vascular diseases, autoimmunity, and tumor immunity. Additionally, we discuss important molecular signaling pathways that mediate TRIM59 activity. Altogether, the accumulating evidence suggests that manipulating TRIM59 levels and activity may open an avenue for innovative therapies for immune diseases and tumors.
