ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2 E3; UbcH9; ubiquitin carrier protein E3; ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2-23 kD; ubiquitin-protein ligase E3 (UBE2E3, UBCE4, UBCH9)
Function:
- accepts ubiquitin from the E1 complex & catalyzes its covalent attachment to other proteins
- in vitro catalyzes Lys-11- & Lys-48-, as well as Lys-63-linked polyubiquitination
- participates in regulation of transepithelial Na+ transport in renal cells
- may be involved in cell growth arrest
- protein modification; protein ubiquitination
- the ubiquitin-loaded form interacts specifically with importin-11 (IPO11), leading to its import into the nucleus
- interacts with NEDD4L
Structure:
- belongs to the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family
Compartment:
- nucleus, cytoplasm
- shuttles between the nucleus & cytoplasm (IPO11-dependent)
Expression:
- ubiquitously expressed at low levels
- highly expressed in skeletal muscle
