Gene information for UBE2G1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID7326
Official gene symbolUBE2G1
Full nameubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2G 1 (UBC7 homolog, yeast)
Aliases,E217K,UBC7,UBE2G,
Gene summaryThe modification of proteins with ubiquitin is an important cellular mechanism for targeting abnormal or short-lived proteins for degradation. Ubiquitination involves at least three classes of enzymes: ubiquitin-activating enzymes, or E1s, ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes, or E2s, and ubiquitin-protein ligases, or E3s. This gene encodes a member of the E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family and catalyzes the covalent attachment of ubiquitin to other proteins. The protein may be involved in degradation of muscle-specific proteins. [provided by RefSeq]
