| Abstract | Polyubiquitination is a post-translational event used to control the degradation of damaged or unwanted proteins by modifying the target protein with a chain of ubiquitin molecules. One potential mechanism for the assembly of polyubiquitin chains involves the dimerization of an E2 conjugating enzyme allowing conjugated ubiquitin molecules to be put into close proximity to assist reactivity. HIP2 (UBE2K) and Ubc1 (yeast homolog of UBE2K) are unique E2 conjugating enzymes that each contain a C-terminal UBA domain attached to their catalytic domains, and they have basal E3-independent polyubiquitination activity. Although the isolated enzymes are monomeric, polyubiquitin formation activity assays show that both can act as ubiquitin donors or ubiquitin acceptors when in the activated thioester conjugate suggesting dimerization of the E2-ubiquitin conjugates. Stable disulfide complexes, analytical ultracentrifugation and small angle x-ray scattering were used to show that the HIP2-Ub and Ubc1-Ub thioester complexes remain predominantly monomeric in solution. Models of the HIP2-Ub complex derived from SAXS data show the complex is not compact but instead forms an open or backbent conformation similar to UbcH5b~Ub or Ubc13~Ub where the UBA domain and covalently attached ubiquitin reside on opposite ends of the catalytic domain. Activity assays showed that full length HIP2 exhibited a five-fold increase in the formation rate of di-ubiquitin compared to a HIP2 lacking the UBA domain. This difference was not observed for Ubc1 and may be attributed to the closer proximity of the UBA domain in HIP2 to the catalytic core than for Ubc1. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
