Disease
[UHRF2_HUMAN] Associated with various cancers. DNA copy number loss is found in multiple kinds of malignancies originating from the brain, breast, stomach, kidney, hematopoietic tissue and lung.
Function
[UHRF2_HUMAN] 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.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]
