Alternative Names
Ubiquitin-Conjugating Enzyme E2 B; RAD6 Homolog B; HR6B; hHR6B; Ubiquitin Carrier Protein B; Ubiquitin-Conjugating Enzyme E2-17 kDa; Ubiquitin-Protein Ligase B; UBE2B; RAD6B
Background
Ubiquitin-Conjugating Enzyme E2 B (UBE2B) belongs to the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family. UBE2B can catalyze the covalent attachment of ubiquitin to other proteins, and is essential for the multi-ubiquitination and degradation of N-end rule substrates. UBE2B is indispensability for postreplication repair of UV-damaged DNA and may be involved in neurite outgrowth.Additionally, UBE2B may have a role in sepsis-induced muscle protein proteolysis and cancer-induced cachexia.
