ENZYME entry: EC 2.3.2.23

Accepted Name
E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme
Alternative Name(s)
ubiquitin-carrier-protein E2
ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2
Reaction catalysed
S-ubiquitinyl-[E1 ubiquitin-activating enzyme]-L-cysteine + [E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme]-L-cysteine <=> [E1 ubiquitin-activating enzyme]-L-cysteine + S-ubiquitinyl-[E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme]-L-cysteine
Comment(s)
  • The E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme acquires the activated ubquitin from the E1 ubiquitin-activating enzyme (EC 6.2.1.45) and binds it via a transthioesterification reaction to itself.
  • In the human enzyme the catalytic center is located at Cys-87 where ubiquitin is bound via its C-terminal glycine in a thioester linkage.
  • Formerly EC 6.3.2.19.
