Function |
E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that is an intermolecular hub protein in the cell cycle network. Through cooperative DNA and histone binding, may contribute to a tighter epigenetic control of gene expression in differentiated cells. Ubiquitinates cyclins, CCND1 and CCNE1, in an apparently phosphorylation-independent manner and induces G1 arrest. Also ubiquitinates PCNP leading to its degradation by the proteasome. E3 SUMO-, but not ubiquitin-, protein ligase for ZNF131. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12176013, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14741369, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15178429, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15361834, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21952639, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23404503}.
