Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable ATPase binding activity; ubiquitin binding activity; and ubiquitin protein ligase binding activity. Predicted to contribute to K48-linked polyubiquitin modification-dependent protein binding activity and K63-linked polyubiquitin modification-dependent protein binding activity. Involved in retrograde protein transport, ER to cytosol. Part of VCP-NPL4-UFD1 AAA ATPase complex. Is expressed in lens. Orthologous to human NPLOC4 (NPL4 homolog, ubiquitin recognition factor).
