| Miscellaneous/General: | UbcH3 is a class II enzyme, homologous to Cdc34 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and is important in the control of cell cycle and DNA replication. UbcH3/Cdc34 in association with different E3 complexes, including SCF, has been shown to target many different substrates for ubiquitination and degradation during cell division, signal transduction, and development. UbcH3 substrates that have been characterized include IκB, Wee1, ICERIIγ, p27Xic1. Additionally, substrates such as ß-catenin, p21, and is phosphorylated and ubiquitinylated in vivo11. |
