Foundational characteristics of cancer include proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, evasion of apoptosis, and cellular immortality. Find key markers for these cellular processes and antibodies to detect them.
The SUMOplot™ Analysis Program predicts and scores sumoylation sites in your protein. SUMOylation is a post-translational modification involved in various cellular processes, such as nuclear-cytosolic transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, protein stability, response to stress, and progression through the cell cycle.
The Autophagy Receptor Motif Plotter predicts and scores autophagy receptor binding sites in your protein. Identifying proteins connected to this pathway is critical to understanding the role of autophagy in physiological as well as pathological processes such as development, differentiation, neurodegenerative diseases, stress, infection, and cancer.
UBA2 Antibody (N-term) Blocking Peptide
Synthetic peptide
- SPECIFICATION
- CITATIONS
- PROTOCOLS
- BACKGROUND
| Primary Accession | Q9UBT2 |
|---|---|
| Clone Names | 2120211 |
| Gene ID | 10054 |
|---|---|
| Other Names | SUMO-activating enzyme subunit 2, 632-, Anthracycline-associated resistance ARX, Ubiquitin-like 1-activating enzyme E1B, Ubiquitin-like modifier-activating enzyme 2, UBA2, SAE2, UBLE1B |
| Target/Specificity | The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP1065a was selected from the N-term region of human UBA2. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay. |
| Format | Peptides are lyophilized in a solid powder format. Peptides can be reconstituted in solution using the appropriate buffer as needed. |
| Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 6 months. For long term storage store at -20°C. |
| Precautions | This product is for research use only. Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
| Name | UBA2 |
|---|---|
| Synonyms | SAE2, UBLE1B |
| Function | The heterodimer acts as an E1 ligase for SUMO1, SUMO2, SUMO3, and probably SUMO4. It mediates ATP-dependent activation of SUMO proteins followed by formation of a thioester bond between a SUMO protein and a conserved active site cysteine residue on UBA2/SAE2. |
| Cellular Location | Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Note=Shuttles between the cytoplasm and the nucleus, sumoylation is required either for nuclear translocation or nuclear retention |

Background
Ubiquitin is covalently attached to target proteins by a multienzymatic system consisting of E1 (ubiquitin-activating), E2 (ubiquitin-conjugating), and E3 (ubiquitin-ligating) enzymes. NEDD8, a ubiquitin-like protein, is conjugated to proteins in a manner analogous to ubiquitinylation. beta-amyloid precursor protein-binding protein-1 (APPBP1) can bind to NEDD8 in rabbit reticulocyte lysates. However, since APPBP1 shows similarity to only the N-terminal domain of an E1 enzyme, it must interact with a protein showing similarity to the C-terminal region of E1s. By searching sequence databases, a cDNAs encoding UBA3 was identified as the human homolog of yeast Uba3. The predicted 442-amino acid UBA3 protein shares 43% sequence identity with yeast Uba3. In vitro, UBA3 formed a complex with APPBP1 and a thioester linkage with NEDD8. APPBP1/UBA3 complex may function as an E1-like enzyme for the activation of NEDD8.
