Summary
Enables ubiquitin-like ligase-substrate adaptor activity. Involved in rescue of stalled ribosome and ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process via the C-end degron rule pathway. Located in nucleoplasm. Is active in Cul2-RING ubiquitin ligase complex and cytoplasm. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
