Gene information for UBE2G2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID7327
Official gene symbolUBE2G2
Full nameubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2G 2 (UBC7 homolog, yeast)
Aliases,UBC7,
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. The encoded protein shares 100% sequence identity with the mouse counterpart. This gene is ubiquitously expressed, with high expression seen in adult muscle. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene.
