UBA1 / Unconjugated / Polyclonal

Product Details

Description	Ubiquitin Activating Enzyme (E1), also known as A1S9 and UBE1, is responsible for the first step in ubiquitin-protein isopeptide bond formation. E1 catalyzes the activation of the C-terminal carboxyl group of ubiquitin by forming a high-energy thioester bond in an ATP-dependent manner. UBE1 is monomeric and contains two active sites within the E1 molecule, allowing it to bind two ubiquitin moieties at a time, with a new ubiquitin forming an adenylate intermediate as the previous one is transferred to the thiol site. Alternative splicing results in 2 transcript variants encoding the same protein, but with different 5' UTR. Isoform 1 has a different 5' noncoding exon compared to isoform 2. Both variants encode the same protein.

About UBA1
The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the first step in ubiquitin conjugation to mark cellular proteins for degradation. This gene complements an X-linked mouse temperature-sensitive defect in DNA synthesis, and thus may function in DNA repair. It is part of a gene cluster on chromosome Xp11.23. Alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode the same protein have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
