E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that mediates ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of target proteins. E3 ubiquitin ligases accept ubiquitin from an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme in the form of a thioester and then directly transfers the ubiquitin to targeted substrates. Mediates the ubiquitin-mediated degradation of nuclear receptors for retinoids SmRXR1 and SmRXR2. S-ubiquitinyl-[E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme]-L-cysteine + [acceptor protein]-L-lysine = [E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme]-L-cysteine + N(6)-ubiquitinyl-[acceptor protein]-L-lysine. Protein modification; protein ubiquitination. Homodimer. Widely expressed. Colocalizes with SmRXR1 and SmRXR2 in vitelline cells. The RING-type zinc finger domain is essential for ubiquitin ligase activity. The SBD domain (substrate-binding domain) mediates the homodimerization and the interaction with substrate proteins. It is related to the TRAF family. Belongs to the SINA (Seven in absentia) family.
