Description

SHPRH encodes a member of the SNF2 family of chromatin remodeling proteins. It contains a SNF2-related helicase domain, a PHD finger, and a RING finger domain. The protein functions as a ubiquitin ligase involved in DNA damage tolerance and replication stress response, and is considered a putative tumor suppressor.

Protein Summary

SHPRH is a 1683-amino acid protein with a SNF2-related helicase domain, a PHD finger, and a RING finger. It acts as an E3 ubiquitin ligase that monoubiquitinates PCNA in response to replication stress, facilitating translesion synthesis and DNA damage tolerance. The protein localizes to the nucleus and is involved in chromatin remodeling.
