QA Activity

E2-Ubiquitin Thioester Loading Assay: The activity of GST-UBE2D4 was validated by loading E1 UBE1 activated ubiquitin onto the active cysteine of the GST-UBE2D4 E2 enzyme via a transthiolation reaction. Incubation of the UBE1 and GST-UBE2D4 enzymes in the presence of ubiquitin and ATP at 30°C was compared at two time points, T0 and T10 minutes. Sensitivity of the ubiquitin/GST-UBE2D4 thioester bond to the reducing agent DTT was confirmed.

 


Background

The enzymes of the ubiquitylation pathway play a pivotal role in a number of cellular processes including regulated and targeted proteosomal degradation of substrate proteins. Three classes of enzymes are involved in the process of ubiquitylation; activating enzymes (E1s), conjugating enzymes (E2s) and protein ligases (E3s). UBE2D4 is a member of the E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family and the human gene was first described by Colland et al. (2004).
