Summary: Predicted to enable several functions, including K63-linked polyubiquitin modification-dependent protein binding activity; histone H2AK15 ubiquitin ligase activity; and ubiquitin binding activity. Involved in isotype switching. Acts upstream of or within cellular response to UV and regulation of protein localization. Part of DNA repair complex. Is expressed in central nervous system and genitourinary system. Used to study RIDDLE syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in RIDDLE syndrome. Orthologous to human RNF168 (ring finger protein 168). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

E3 ubiquitin ligase RNF168, in addition to its canonical role in inhibiting end resection, acts in a redundant manner with BRCA1 to load PALB2 onto damaged DNA. Loss of RNF168 negates the synthetic rescue of BRCA1 deficiency by 53BP1 deletion and it predisposes BRCA1 heterozygous mice to cancer.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
