Protein attributes

Sequence length	245 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Protein existence	Evidence at protein level

General annotation (Comments)

Function	E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase. Together with NLK, involved in the ubiquitination and degradation of TCF/LEF. Also exhibits auto-ubiquitination activity in combination with UBE2K. May act as a negative regulator in the Wnt/beta-catenin-mediated signaling pathway. Ref.8
Pathway	Protein modification; protein ubiquitination.
Subunit structure	Interacts with NLK. Ref.8
Domain	The RING-type zinc finger domain mediates binding to an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme By similarity.
Post-translational modification	Auto-ubiquitinated.
Sequence similarities	Contains 1 RING-type zinc finger.
