Recombinant Human GST-Ubiquitin E1 Enzyme (UBE1L2/UBA6), CF Summary

Product Specifications

Purity
>95%, by SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions and visualized by Colloidal Coomassie® Blue stain.
Activity
Recombinant Human GST-Ubiquitin E1 Enzyme (UBE1L2/UBA6) is a member of the Ubiquitin-activating (E1) enzyme family that is required for the first step of the enzymatic cascade that subsequently utilizes a Ubiquitin-conjugating (E2) enzyme and a Ubiquitin ligase (E3) to conjugate Ubiquitin to substrate proteins. Reaction conditions will need to be optimized for each specific application. We recommend an initial Recombinant Human GST-Ubiquitin E1 Enzyme (UBE1L2/UBA6) concentration of 50-200 nM.

Carrier Free

What does CF mean?

CF stands for Carrier Free (CF). We typically add Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) as a carrier protein to our recombinant proteins. Adding a carrier protein enhances protein stability, increases shelf-life, and allows the recombinant protein to be stored at a more dilute concentration. The carrier free version does not contain BSA.

What formulation is right for me?

In general, we advise purchasing the recombinant protein with BSA for use in cell or tissue culture, or as an ELISA standard. In contrast, the carrier free protein is recommended for applications, in which the presence of BSA could interfere.

Background: Ubiquitin E1 Enzyme/UBE1L2

Ubiquitin-activating Enzyme 1-like 2 (UBE1L2), also known as Ubiquitin-like Modifier Activating Enzyme 6 (UBA6), is a 1052 amino acid (aa) member of the Ubiquitin-activating (E1) enzyme family with a predicted molecular weight of 118 kDa. The mouse and rat UBE1L2/UBA6 orthologs share 88% aa sequence identity with the human protein. UBE1L2/UBA6 is expressed in vertebrate cells where four isoforms have been identified (1). UBE1L2/UBA6 is an activating enzyme for both Ubiquitin and FAT10 via a similar molecular mechanism but has a higher affinity for FAT10 than for Ubiquitin (2-4). UBE1L2/UBA6 contains an ATP-binding motif and an active site cysteine residue, Cys625 in humans, common to E1 enzymes. It shares 40% aa sequence identity with the related family member Ubiquitin Activating Enzyme/UBE1 (1). Similar to UBE1, UBE1L2/UBA6 can transfer activated Ubiquitin to Ubiquitin-conjugating (E2) enzymes including the UbcH5 isoforms and UbcH7 (5). Unlike UBE1, which can transfer Ubiquitin to the cell cycle-associated E2 enzyme, UbcH3, UBE1L2/UBA6 can transfer Ubiquitin to Use1/UBE2Z, an E2 enzyme that cannot be charged with Ubiquitin by UBE1 (1,5). UBE1L2/UBA6-initiated covalent linkage of FAT10 to protein targets results in proteasomal degradation (2). UBE1L2/UBA6 is essential for embryonic development (3). One isoform, nUBE1L, is highly expressed in human testis and may play a role in spermatogenesis and male fertility (6).
