UniProt functional annotation for P53152

UniProt code: P53152.

Organism: Saccharomyces cerevisiae (strain ATCC 204508 / S288c) (Baker's yeast).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Fungi; Dikarya; Ascomycota; Saccharomycotina; Saccharomycetes; Saccharomycetales; Saccharomycetaceae; Saccharomyces.
 
Function: Has a role in the DNA error-free postreplication repair (PRR) pathway. Lacks catalytic activity by itself. The UBC13/MMS2 heterodimer catalyzes the synthesis of non-canonical poly-ubiquitin chains that are linked through 'Lys-63'.
 
Subunit: Heterodimer with UBC13. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11440714}.
Miscellaneous: Present with 2760 molecules/cell in log phase SD medium. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14562106}.
Similarity: Belongs to the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00388}.
