Molecular Weight
Approximately 23.4 kDa, a single non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 200 amino acids (a.a.) of human UBE2K and 8 a.a. vector sequence including 6 × His tag at N-terminus.
Formulation
Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.4.
Reconstitution
We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1 % BSA to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at ≤ -20 °C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions.
Background
Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2 K belongs to the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family and is encoded by the UBE2K gene in humans. The ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes, also known as E2 enzymes and more rarely as ubiquitin-carrier enzymes, take part in the second step in the ubiquitination reaction. In this reaction, E1 activates the ubiquitin by covalently attaching the molecule to its active site cysteine residue. The activated ubiquitin is then transferred to an E2 cysteine and then the E2 molecule binds E3 via a structurally conserved binding region. The ubiquitination reaction can modify proteins and regulate protein degradation. The UBE2K has been shown to interact with Huntingtin and RNF2. Additionally, it has been implicated in the degradation of huntingtin and suppression of apoptosis.
