ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2 J1; non-canonical ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme 1; NCUBE-1; Yeast ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme UBC6 homolog E; HsUBC6e (UBE2J1, NCUBE1, CGI-76, HSPC153, HSPC205)

Function

• catalyzes the covalent attachment of ubiquitin to other proteins
• seems to function in the selective degradation of misfolded membrane proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum
• protein modification; protein ubiquitination

Structure

• belongs to the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family

Compartment

• endoplasmic reticulum membrane
• single-pass type IV membrane protein

More general terms

• ubiquitin-conjugating protein E2 (ubiquitin carrier protein)
• membrane protein
• phosphoprotein
