Source : Escherichia Coli. UBE2K produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 236 amino acids (1-200a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 26.5kDa.UBE2K is fused to a 36 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. UBE2K belongs to the ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes family which take part in many cellular processes such as selective protein degradation, DNA repair, cell cycle control, and sporulation. In this mechanism, the ATP-coupled activation and subsequent ligation of ubiquitin are catalyzed by separate enzymes functionally linked by ubiquitin carrier protein UBC1. In addition, UBE2K is involved in Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease and antigen processing through its interaction with amyloid-b, huntingtin, and MHC-heavy chain proteins.
