RING finger ubiquitin ligase (E3); subunit of ribosome-associated quality control trigger complex (RQT); involved in ubiquitination and degradation of excess histones; interacts with Ubc4p and Rad53p; required to trigger ribosome-associated quality control (RQC) and canonical no-go decay; ubiquitinates Rps20 and Rps3; binds to ribosomal RNA, mRNA and tRNA
