Gene: UBE2I

Alternate names for this Gene: C358B7.1|P18|UBC9

Gene Summary: The modification of proteins with ubiquitin is an important cellular mechanism for targeting abnormal or short-lived proteins for degradation. Ubiquitination involves at least three classes of enzymes: ubiquitin-activating enzymes, or E1s, ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes, or E2s, and ubiquitin-protein ligases, or E3s. This gene encodes a member of the E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family. Four alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 16

Location in Chromosome : 16p13.3

Description of this Gene: ubiquitin conjugating enzyme E2 I

Type of Gene: protein-coding
