UniProt code: Q96PU5.

Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo.
 
Function: E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase which accepts ubiquitin from an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme in the form of a thioester and then directly transfers the ubiquitin to targeted substrates. Inhibits TGF- beta signaling by triggering SMAD2 and TGFBR1 ubiquitination and proteasome-dependent degradation. Promotes ubiquitination and internalization of various plasma membrane channels such as ENaC, SCN2A/Nav1.2, SCN3A/Nav1.3, SCN5A/Nav1.5, SCN9A/Nav1.7, SCN10A/Nav1.8, KCNA3/Kv1.3, KCNH2, EAAT1, KCNQ2/Kv7.2, KCNQ3/Kv7.3 or CLC5 (PubMed:26363003, PubMed:27445338). Promotes ubiquitination and degradation of SGK1 and TNK2. Ubiquitinates BRAT1 and this ubiquitination is enhanced in the presence of NDFIP1 (PubMed:25631046). Plays a role in dendrite formation by melanocytes (PubMed:23999003). Involved in the regulation of TOR signaling (PubMed:27694961). Ubiquitinates and regulates protein levels of NTRK1 once this one is activated by NGF (PubMed:27445338). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8CFI0, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12911626, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15040001, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15217910, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15489223, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15496141, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15576372, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19144635, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23999003, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25631046, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26363003, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27445338, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27694961}.
