Seven in absentia (SINA) protein is one subgroup of ubiquitin ligases possessing an N‐terminal cysteine‐rich really interesting new gene (RING) domain, two zinc‐finger motifs, and a C‐terminal domain responsible for substrate‐binding and dimerization. In tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), the SINA gene...
