Facts about E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase HUWE1.
Also ubiquitinates the p53/TP53 tumor suppressor and core histones including H1, H2A, H2B, H3 and H4. Binds to an upstream initiator-like sequence from the preprodynorphin gene.

Weakly expressed in heart, brain and placenta but not in other tissues. Expressed in a number of cell lines, predominantly in those from colorectal carcinomas.
Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Mainly expressed in the cytoplasm of most tissues, except in the nucleus of spermatogonia, primary spermatocytes and neuronal cells (By similarity). Predominantly cytosolic or perinuclear in some colorectal carcinoma cells.
