Description
Product Characteristics: UBC13 is a member of the E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family also known as Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2 N, Ubiquitin-protein ligase N, Ubiquitin carrier protein N and Bendless-like ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme. The modification of proteins with ubiquitin is an important cellular mechanism for targeting abnormal or short-lived proteins for degradation. Ubiquitination involves at least three classes of enzymes: ubiquitin-activating enzymes, or E1s, ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes, or E2s, and ubiquitin-protein ligases, or E3s. This gene
Synonyms: UbCH ben antibody, Ube 2N antibody, ubiquitin carrier protein N antibody, Ubiquitin conjugating enzyme E2N antibody, ubiquitin protein ligase N antibody, Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2 N antibody
Target Information: The modification of proteins with ubiquitin is an important cellular mechanism for targeting abnormal or short-lived proteins for degradation. Ubiquitination involves at least three classes of enzymes: ubiquitin-activating enzymes, or E1s, ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes, or E2s, and ubiquitin-protein ligases, or E3s. This gene encodes a member of the E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family. Studies in mouse suggest that this protein plays a role in DNA postreplication repair. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
