The E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase Hakai (HAKAI) also known as Casitas B-lineage lymphoma-transforming sequence-like protein 1 (CBLL1) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the CBLL1 gene. This gene encodes an E3 ubiquitin ligase for the E-cadherin complex and mediates its ubiquitination, endocytosis, and degradation in the lysosomes. The encoded protein contains a RING-finger domain and is also thought to have a role in control of cell proliferation.
