UniprotKB/SwissProt ID: HERC1_HUMAN (Q15751)
Gene Name: HERC1
Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Function: Involved in membrane trafficking via some guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) activity and its ability to bind clathrin. Acts as a GEF for Arf and Rab, by exchanging bound GDP for free GTP. Binds phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate, which is required for GEF activity. May also act as a E3 ubiquitin- protein ligase which accepts ubiquitin from an E2 ubiquitin- conjugating enzyme in the form of a thioester and then directly transfers the ubiquitin to targeted substrates.

Protein Subcellular Localization: Membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Cytoplasm, cytosol. Golgi apparatus. Note=Recruited onto actin- rich surface protrusions.
