Descriptions

Application

Ubiquitin, N-terminal FLAG-tagged can replace the ubiquitin in formation of poly-ubiquitin—protein conjugates. The FLAG tag enables separation and enrichment of the protein conjugates on anti-FLAG affinity columns and detection of conjugates in western blot by anti-FLAG antibodies.

Ubiquitin human can be used as a standard for mass spectrometry.

Ubiquitin human has been used in mono-ubiquitination of yeast proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and in in vitro ubiquitination assay of defective in mitotic arrest 1 (Dma1)

Biochem/physiol Actions

Ubiquitin interacts with the lysine residue of proteins through its ?-amino group of the C-terminal glycine residue. Proteins interacting with ubiquitin either undergo mono-ubiquitination or multi-mono-ubiquitination via a three-step process. Ubiquitination regulates intracellular trafficking and protein degradation and an imbalance in the pathway is implicated in disorders.

Ubiquitin is a small regulatory protein present in eukaryote tissues. Exogenous ubiquitin can stimulate apoptosis in numerous cell lines. E7 protein of human papilloma virus-16 stimulates Retinoblastoma Protein degradation via Ubiquitin-Proteasome Pathway.

General description

Ubiquitin is a highly conserved globular protein and has lysine in the surface. The C-terminal end comprises the Leu-Arg-Gly-Gly structural motif.
