Function |
E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase which ubiquitinates itself in cooperation with an E2 enzyme UBE2D2/UBC4 and serves as a targeting signal for proteasomal degradation. May play a role in regulation of neuronal functions and may also participate in the formation or breakdown of abnormal inclusions in neurodegenerative disorders. May act as a regulator of synaptic vesicle exocytosis by controlling the availability of SNAP25 for the SNARE complex formation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20085810}.

Subcellular Location |
Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20085810}. Cell projection, dendrite {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20085810}. Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle, synaptic vesicle {ECO:0000250}. Cell junction, synapse {ECO:0000250}. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton {ECO:0000250}. Note=Enriched at synaptic terminals where it exists in a soluble form and a synaptic vesicle- associated form. Associated with the cytoskeleton (By similarity). Found in proximal dendrites of pyramidal neurons in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus, and Purkinje cells in the cerebellum. {ECO:0000250}.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Brain. Highly expressed in the cerebral cortex (at protein level). Severely decreased in the affected brain areas in Parkinson disease and dementia with Lewy bodies. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20085810}.
