Summary: Enables RNA polymerase II-specific DNA-binding transcription factor binding activity and ubiquitin protein ligase activity. Involved in proteasome-mediated ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process; protein K63-linked ubiquitination; and regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including heart valve; respiratory system; sensory organ; skeleton; and tarsus. Orthologous to human WWP2 (WW domain containing E3 ubiquitin protein ligase 2).

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.
