Ufc1 has been identified as the E2-like conjugating enzyme for the ubiquitin-like modifier, Ufm1 (UL-500). The protein was originally discovered in HEK293 cells by immunoprecipitation using FLAG-Uba5 (E-319), the E1-like activating enzyme of Ufm1. Ufc1 shares no homology to other E2 enzymes except for the region around the active site cysteine (Cys116) which is capable of
forming a thioester bond with Ufm1. This protein contains an N-terminal His6 tag.

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.
