UBE2V2

Ubiquitin-conjugating E2 ligase that has a role in the ubiquitination cascade for protein degradation.

Usage and Biology

This gene encodes a homolog of ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2 variant 1. These ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes don’t have the conserved cysteine residue critical for the catalytic activity of E2s. Based on the specific E2 used, the E2 enzymes can direct the ubiquitination process to different subsets of ubiquitin lysines. The formation of UBE2N/UBE2V2 complex fascilitates the elongation of ubiquitination to forma a ployubiquitin chain. In our case, we will use its interaction with the UBE2N (E2 ligase) to catalyze the formation of polyubiquitin chains and the degradation of our targeted proteins.
