Background
caution:Lacks the His residue in the RING-type domain 2 that is one of the conserved features of the family.,domain:The RING-type zinc finger domain mediates binding to an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme.,function:E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase which accepts ubiquitin from E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes UBE2L3 and UBE2L6 in the form of a thioester and then directly transfers the ubiquitin to targeted substrates such as LCMT2, thereby promoting their degradation. Induces apoptosis via a TP53/p53-dependent but caspase-independent mechanism.,pathway:Protein modification; protein ubiquitination.,PTM:Auto-ubiquitinated.,similarity:Belongs to the RBR family. RNF144 subfamily.,similarity:Contains 1 IBR-type zinc finger.,similarity:Contains 2 RING-type zinc fingers.,subunit:Interacts with UBE2L3, UBE2L6 and LCMT2.,tissue specificity:Broadly expressed, with lowest levels in brain, spleen and thymus.,

Cellular localization
Mitochondrion membrane ; Single-pass membrane protein . Cytoplasm . Mostly cytosololic, accumulates in submitochondrial domains specifically upon apoptosis induction, in synchrony with BAX activation.
Tissue expression
Broadly expressed, with lowest levels in brain and thymus, and highest levels detectable in heart, ovary and testis.
