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 lysins. The formation of UBE2N/UBE2V2 complex facilitates the elongation of ubiquitination to forma a polyubiquitin 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.

Mathematical modeling
Transcription rate and translation rate under T7 promotor
the mathematical modeling was based on our code for the calculation of transcription and translation (you can find it in the code section) beside with the estimated results from the wet lab.
Figure 1. this figure shows the results from the transcription and translation code showing the
variation of mRNA and protein concentrations with time compared with the wet lab results.
