Enables ubiquitin protein ligase activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including animal organ development; negative regulation of protein localization to plasma membrane; and protein ubiquitination. Is expressed in several structures, including extraembryonic component; genitourinary system; heart; hemolymphoid system gland; and lung. Orthologous to human HECTD1 (HECT domain E3 ubiquitin protein ligase 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
