FunFam 6050: Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2 2

There are 4 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme. [EC: 2.3.2.23]
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.
  • 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.

    (E3-independent) E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme. [EC: 2.3.2.24]
    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.
    • 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.

    Pectate lyase. [EC: 4.2.2.2]
    Eliminative cleavage of (1->4)-alpha-D-galacturonan to give oligosaccharides with 4-deoxy-alpha-D-galact-4-enuronosyl groups at their non-reducing ends.
    • Favors pectate, the anion, over pectin, the methyl ester (which is the preferred substrate of EC 4.2.2.10).
    • Formerly EC 4.2.99.3.
