UBE2E3 also known as UBCH9 or ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2E 3 is a member of the E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family. Ubiquitination, the covalent attachment of the protein ubiquitin (Ub) to other cellular proteins is an important cellular mechanism for targeting abnormal or short-lived proteins for degradation that involves at least three classes of enzymes: ubiquitin-activating enzymes, or E1s, ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes, or E2s, and ubiquitin-protein ligases, or E3s(1). UBE2E3 is highly expressed in skeletal muscle (2). UBE2E3 is essential for the proliferation of RPE-1 cells and is down regulated during RPE layer maturation in the developing mouse eye. These findings indicate that UBE2E3 is a major enzyme in modulating the balance between RPE cell proliferation and differentiation. UBE2E3 Protein is ideal for investigators involved in Signaling Proteins, Ubiquitin Proteins, Cancer, Cell Cycle, and Neurobiology research.
Store product at –70°C. For optimal storage, aliquot target into smaller quantities after centrifugation and store at recommended temperature. For most favorable performance, avoid repeated handling and multiple freeze/thaw cycles.
