UBA2 ubiquitin like modifier activating enzyme 2

Gene ID: 10054, updated on 10-Oct-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: ARX; SAE2; ACCES; HRIHFB2115

Summary

Posttranslational modification of proteins by the addition of the small protein SUMO (see SUMO1; MIM 601912), or sumoylation, regulates protein structure and intracellular localization. SAE1 (MIM 613294) and UBA2 form a heterodimer that functions as a SUMO-activating enzyme for the sumoylation of proteins (Okuma et al., 1999 [PubMed 9920803]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2010]
