Summary: Enables GTP binding activity; GTPase activity; and ubiquitin protein ligase activity. Involved in several processes, including embryonic brain development; protein autoubiquitination; and response to hydroperoxide. Acts upstream of or within G1 to G0 transition involved in cell differentiation; positive regulation of glial cell differentiation; and positive regulation of neuron differentiation. Located in several cellular components, including cytoplasmic vesicle; nuclear body; and postsynaptic density. Is expressed in several structures, including adrenal gland; alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; and respiratory system. Orthologous to human RNF112 (ring finger protein 112).

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.
