UniProtKB accession:  Q04781

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase component of the ribosome quality control complex (RQC), a ribosome-associated complex that mediates ubiquitination and extraction of incompletely synthesized nascent chains for proteasomal degradation (PubMed:23178123, PubMed:26055716, PubMed:26934223, PubMed:31133701, PubMed:27385828, PubMed:36804914). Mediates ubiquitination of proteins derived from mRNAs lacking stop codons (non-stop proteins) and other translation arrest products induced by poly-lysine sequences and tandem rare codons (PubMed:20835226, PubMed:23825054, PubMed:24261871, PubMed:26934223, PubMed:31133701). Ubiquitination leads to CDC48 recruitment for extraction and degradation of the incomplete translation product (PubMed:26055716, PubMed:27129255). May indirectly play a role in chromatin function and transcription (PubMed:17283062).
