Protein attributes

Sequence length	793 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is not processed.
Protein existence	Evidence at protein level.

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Functions as an E3-type smo-1 ligase. In the early embryo, specifically suppresses checkpoint activation in response to DNA damage, maybe by promoting mus-101 sumoylation. Ref.3 Ref.4 Ref.5
Pathway	Protein modification; protein sumoylation.
Subunit structure	May interact with gex-3.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the PIAS family. Contains 1 SP-RING-type zinc finger.
