UBE2N Gene Information

HGNC symbol
UBE2N 
Aliases
MGC8489; UBC13; UbcH-ben 
Common name
ubiquitin conjugating enzyme E2 N 
Entrez Id
7334
Description
The 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. Studies in mouse suggest that this protein plays a role in DNA postreplication repair. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].
