Description
Recombinant full-length human UBE2O was expressed by baculovirus in Sf9 insect cells using an N-terminal GST tag.
Scientific Background: UBE2O or ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2O is a part of the ubiquitin-mediated protein degradation pathway in which a thiol-ester linkage forms between a conserved cysteine and the C-terminus of ubiquitin and complexes with ubiquitin. HIV-1 Tat has been identified to have a physical interaction with ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2O (UBE2O) in human HEK293 and Jurkat cell lines by using affinity tagging and purification mass spectrometry analyses (1)
