Most cancer tissues showed weak to moderate nuclear and cytoplasmic positivity. Several testicular cancers displayed strong nucleolar immunoreactivity. A majority of
liver, gastric, renal, skin and prostate cancers were negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
UBE2E1 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
UbcH6
Description
Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2E 1 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
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. Three alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene.
