| Overview | DI-UBIQUITIN PROTEIN AVAILABLE! Di-Ubiquitin (Lys63-linked) Recombinant Protein (17-10388) |
| Background Information | Polyubiquitin chains linked through the Lys63 residue of ubiquitin (Ub) are associated with nonproteolytic functions such as signal transduction. Lys63-linked polyUb chains connect components of NFκB signaling in a highly regulated manner, and genetic evidence indicates the involvement of Lys63-linked Ub chains in stress response and DNA repair. Research in yeast has suggested Lys63-linked Ub chains stimulate endocytosis. In contrast, polyubiquitin chains linked through the Lys48 residue of ubiquitin are most commonly associated with proteins targeted for proteosomal degradation. |

| Key Applications |
|
| Application Notes | Immmunoprecipitation: Rabbit monoclonal anti-ubiquitin (Lys-63-specific), clone Apu3, precipitated ubiquitin-containing proteins from HeLa cell lysates Immunohistochemistry: Ubiquitin (Lys63-specific) staining of colorectal cancer tissue sections is restricted to tumor cells. Flow cytometry: Flow cytometry analysis of Jurkat cells using Anti-ubiquitin Lys63-specific (#05-1308) (blue) and rabbit IgG control (red). Inhibition Assay: Preincubation of anti-ubiquitin, Lys63-specific, with K63-multiubiquitin chains inhibited binding to HeLa cell lysate in Western blots. Immunocytochemistry: Ubiquitin (Lys63-specific) staining of colorectal cancer tissue sections is restricted to tumor cells. Positive staining was also detected in mouse, rat, and rabbit brain sections. |

| UniProt Summary | FUNCTION: Protein modifier which can be covalently attached to target lysines either as a monomer or as a lysine-linked polymer. Attachment to proteins as a Lys-48-linked polymer usually leads to their degradation by proteasome. Attachment to proteins as a monomer or as an alternatively linked polymer does not lead to proteasomal degradation and may be required for numerous functions, including maintenance of chromatin structure, regulation of gene expression, stress response, ribosome biogenesis and DNA repair. Ref.21 SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm. Nucleus. PTM: Several types of polymeric chains can be formed, depending on the lysine used for the assembly. MISCELLANEOUS: Ubiquitin is synthesized as a polyubiquitin precursor with exact head to tail repeats, the number of repeats differ between species and strains. In some species there is a final amino-acid after the last repeat, here in human a Val. Some ubiquitin genes contain a single copy of ubiquitin fused to a ribosomal protein (either L40 or S27a). SIMILARITY: Belongs to the ubiquitin family. |
