This E2 enzyme encodes for the human homolog of the yeast Ubc8 gene. UbcH2 can conjugate ubiquitin to histone H2A in an E3-independent manner in vitro. This E2 enzyme is also involved in the ubiquitination of N-end rule pathway substrates, and can function in conjugation with the E3ligase enzyme. Additionally, UbcH2 may have a role in sepsis-induced muscle protein proteolysis and cancer-induced cachexia. Accession # NP_003335.

Use & Storage

Use: 
Typical enzyme concentration to support conjugation in vitro is 100 nM-1 μM depending on conditions.
Storage: 
Store at -80°C. Avoid multiple freeze/thaw cycles.
