Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2 K is a protein that in humans is encoded by the UBE2K gene. [5] [6] [7]

Contents

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family. It binds selectively to a large region at the N terminus of huntingtin. This interaction is not influenced by the length of the huntingtin polyglutamine tract. This protein has been implicated in the degradation of huntingtin and suppression of apoptosis. [7]

Interactions

HIP2 has been shown to interact with Huntingtin [5] [8] and RNF2. [9]
