function:E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase which is a component of the N-end rule pathway. Recognizes and binds to proteins bearing specific amino-terminal residues that are destabilizing according to the N-end rule, leading to their ubiquitination and subsequent degradation (By similarity). May be involved in maturation and/or transcriptional regulation of mRNA. May play a role in control of cell cycle progression. May have tumor suppressor function. Regulates DNA topoisomerase II binding protein (TopBP1) in the DNA damage response. Plays an essential role in extraembryonic development.,miscellaneous:A cysteine residue is required for ubiquitin-thioester formation.,pathway:Protein modification; protein ubiquitination.,PTM:Phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR.,similarity:Contains 1 HECT (E6AP-type E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase) domain.,similarity:Contains 1 PABC domain.,similarity:Contains 1 UBR-type zinc finger.,subunit:Binds TOPBP1.,tissue specificity:Widely expressed. Most abundant in testis and expressed at high levels in brain, pituitary and kidney.,
