    Summary
    Enables ubiquitin protein ligase activity. Involved in several processes, including inductive cell migration; striated muscle cell development; and ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process. Located in cell junction; nucleus; and striated muscle dense body. Is expressed in head neurons; hypodermis; and tail neurons. Orthologous to human RNF185 (ring finger protein 185) and RNF5 (ring finger protein 5). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
