01

Overview

Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2 C (UBE2C) is an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme that plays a crucial role in the ubiquitination pathway. This enzyme accepts ubiquitin from an E1 activating enzyme and catalyzes its covalent attachment to substrate proteins, typically with assistance from an E3 ligase. This process is vital for targeting abnormal or short-lived proteins for degradation and regulating cell cycle progression, particularly through the destruction of mitotic cyclins. UBE2C's overexpression or dysregulation has been implicated in various cancers, making it a potential biomarker and therapeutic target.
