Background
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. This enzyme is closely related to a stimulator of iron transport (SFT), and is up-regulated in hereditary hemochromatosis. It also functions in the ubiquitination of the tumor-suppressor protein p53 and the hypoxia-inducible transcription factor HIF1alpha by interacting with the E1 ubiquitin-activating enzyme and the E3 ubiquitin-protein ligases. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011],
Function
catalytic activity:ATP + ubiquitin + protein lysine = AMP + diphosphate + protein N-ubiquityllysine.,caution:PubMed:9362508 cloned and sequenced SFT which consisted of UBE2D1 last coding exon along with intronic sequences on the 5'-end of this exon. A function in iron transport has been described.,function:Catalyzes the covalent attachment of ubiquitin to other proteins. Mediates the selective degradation of short-lived and abnormal proteins. Functions in the E6/E6-AP-induced ubiquitination of p53/TP53.,pathway:Protein modification; protein ubiquitination.,similarity:Belongs to the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family.,subunit:Component of a E3 ubiquitin ligase complex containing UBE2D1, SIAH1, CACYBP/SIP, SKP1, APC and TBL1X.,tissue specificity:Ubiquitous. Up-regulated in livers of iron-overloaded patients with hereditary hemochromatosis.,
