Potential relevance to the human ageing process

Main reason for selection
Entry selected based on indirect or inconclusive evidence linking the gene product to ageing in humans or in one or more model systems
Description

UBB is involved in the regulation of chromatin structure and stress response, as well as in the degradation of cellular proteins [439]. In lower life forms, such as invertebrates, stress-response proteins similar to UBB have been associated with ageing. UBB has also been associated with neurodegenerative diseases [436]. Although unproven, a role for UBB in ageing and/or age-related diseases is possible.
