Facts about E3 ISG15--protein ligase HERC5.
Catalyzes ISGylation of IRF3 which leads to sustained activation, it attenuates IRF3-PIN1 interaction, which antagonizes IRF3 ubiquitination and degradation, and boosts the antiviral response. Catalyzes ISGylation of influenza A viral NS1 that attenuates virulence; ISGylated NS1 fails to form homodimers and thus to interact with its RNA targets.

Expressed in testis and to a lesser degree in brain, ovary and placenta. Found in most tissues at low levels.
Cytoplasm, perinuclear region. Associated with the polyribosomes, probably via the 60S subunit.
