Rabbit anti-Human UBE2V2 Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

Q15819

Target Species

Human

Target Name

UBE2V2

Target Full Name

Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2 variant 2

Target Function

Has no ubiquitin ligase activity on its own. The UBE2V2/UBE2N heterodimer catalyzes the synthesis of non-canonical poly-ubiquitin chains that are linked through 'Lys-63'. This type of poly-ubiquitination does not lead to protein degradation by the proteasome. Mediates transcriptional activation of target genes. Plays a role in the control of progress through the cell cycle and differentiation. Plays a role in the error-free DNA repair pathway and contributes to the survival of cells after DNA damage.

Target Protein Families

Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family

Target Tissue Specificity

Detected in placenta, colon, liver and skin. Detected at very low levels in most tissues.

Target Research Area

Epigenetics and Nuclear Signaling

Target Background

Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2 variant proteins constitute a distinct subfamily within the E2 protein family. They have sequence similarity to other ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes but lack the conserved cysteine residue that is critical for the catalytic activity of E2s. The protein encoded by this gene also shares homology with ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2 variant 1 and yeast MMS2 gene product. It may be involved in the differentiation of monocytes and enterocytes.
