Gene information for UBE2M (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID9040
Official gene symbolUBE2M
Full nameubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2M (UBC12 homolog, yeast)
Aliases,UBC-RS2,UBC12,hUbc12,
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 is linked with a ubiquitin-like protein, NEDD8, which can be conjugated to cellular proteins, such as Cdc53/culin. [provided by RefSeq]
