ENZYME entry: EC 2.3.2.24

PURL: https://purl.expasy.org/enzyme/EC/2.3.2.24
Accepted Name
(E3-independent) E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme
Alternative Name(s)
E3-independent ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2
Reaction catalysed
S-ubiquitinyl-[E1 ubiquitin-activating enzyme]-L-cysteine + [acceptor protein]-L-lysine = [E1 ubiquitin-activating enzyme]-L-cysteine + N(6)-monoubiquitinyl-[acceptor protein]-L-lysine
Comment(s)
  • The enzyme transfers a single ubiquitin directly from an ubiquitinated E1 ubiquitin-activating enzyme to itself, and on to a lysine residue of the acceptor protein without involvement of E3 ubiquitin transferases (cf. EC 2.3.2.26, EC 2.3.2.27).
  • It forms a labile ubiquitin adduct in the presence of E1, ubiquitin, and Mg(2+)-ATP and catalyzes the conjugation of ubiquitin to protein substrates, independently of E3.
  • This transfer has only been observed with small proteins.
  • In vitro a transfer to small acceptors (e.g. L-lysine, N-acetyl-L- lysine methyl ester) has been observed.
