Summary: Enables ubiquitin protein ligase activity. Involved in protein import into peroxisome matrix, receptor recycling; protein import into peroxisome matrix, substrate release; and protein monoubiquitination. Part of peroxisomal importomer complex. Is active in peroxisomal membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Peroxisome biogenesis disorder 5B and peroxisome biogenesis disorder 5A. Orthologous to human PEX2 (peroxisomal biogenesis factor 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
