Ubiquitin-Conjugating Enzyme E2 K (UBE2K) belongs to the E2 Ubiquitin-Conjugating Enzyme family. UBE2K is highly expressed in the brain; with highest levels found in cortex and striatum; and at lower levels in cerebellum and brainstem. UBE2K may mediate foam cell formation by the suppression of apoptosis of lipid-bearing macrophages through ubiquitination and subsequence degradation of p53/TP53. UBE2K is associated with the selective degradation of short-lived and abnormal proteins; such as the endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) of misfolded lumenal proteins. In addition; UBE2K is involved in Alzheimer's disease; Huntington's disease and antigen processing through its interaction with huntingtin; and MHC-heavy chain proteins
