== Function Summary ==
* **Entrez Summary**: This gene encodes a member of a family of proteins with two K homology (KH) RNA-binding domains and a C-terminal RING-finger domain. The protein interacts with mRNA via the KH domains, and the protein shuttles between the nucleus and cytoplasm. Polymorphisms in this gene may contribute to hypertension. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009].
* **UniProt Summary**: E3 ubiquitin ligase responsible for the post- transcriptional regulation of common HLA-A allotypes. Binds to the 3' UTR of HLA-A2 mRNA, and regulates its levels by promoting mRNA decay. RNA binding is sufficient to prevent translation, but ubiquitin ligase activity is required for mRNA degradation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22863774, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23446422}.
