E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase HUWE1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the HUWE1 gene.[5][6][7]

It performs the third step (ligation) in binding ubiquitin to proteins in a process called ubiquitination which tags the proteins for disposal.

Human genetic studies that implicate HUWE1 in intellectual disability.[8] Additional research suggests HUWE1 has implications in cancer research.
