Gene Information

human ... UBE2G2(7327)

General description

UBE2G2 (ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2G 2) gene is mapped to human chromosome 21q22.3. It is predominantly expressed in adult muscles and to some extent in other tissues. UBE2G2 is a single domain comprising of an antiparallel β-sheet with four strands, five α-­helices and two 310-helices.

Immunogen

Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2 G2 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions

UBE2G2 (ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2G 2) gene encodes an enzyme that is involved in protein degradation by a process called endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD). Ubiquitin-dependent protein degradation is important in the regulations of cellular processes, such as cell-cycle progression, signal transduction, and protein quality control. Ube2g2 binds to AUP1 (Ancient Ubiquitous Protein 1) to form a complex at lipid droplets (LDs). This complex forms a molecular link between LDs and the cellular ubiquitination machinery.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

The human ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2 G2 (UBE2G2/UBC7) is involved in protein degradation, including a process known as endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD). The crystal structure of human UBE2G2/UBC7 was solved at 2.56 angstroms resolution. The UBE2G2 structure comprises a single domain

Protein degradation is an essential mechanism for the maintenance of cellular homeostasis, in which excess or aberrant proteins are eliminated from the cell. In eukaryotes, conjugation of target proteins to ubiquitin is an essential step in the proteasome-dependent degradation process

Lipid droplets (LDs), the major intracellular storage sites for neutral lipids, consist of a neutral lipid core surrounded by a phospholipid monolayer membrane. In addition to their function in lipid storage, LDs participate in lipid biosynthesis and recently were implicated
