| Function: | The UBE2V1-UBE2N and UBE2V2-UBE2N heterodimers catalyze the synthesis of non-canonical 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitin chains. This type of polyubiquitination does not lead to protein degradation by the proteasome. Mediates transcriptional activation of target genes. Plays a role in the control of progress through the cell cycle and differentiation. Plays a role in the error-free DNA repair pathway and contributes to the survival of cells after DNA damage. Acts together with the E3 ligases, HLTF and SHPRH, in the 'Lys-63'-linked poly- ubiquitination of PCNA upon genotoxic stress, which is required for DNA repair. Appears to act together with E3 ligase RNF5 in the 'Lys-63'- linked polyubiquitination of JKAMP thereby regulating JKAMP function by decreasing its association with components of the proteasome and ERAD. Promotes TRIM5 capsid-specific restriction activity and the UBE2V1- UBE2N heterodimer acts in concert with TRIM5 to generate 'Lys-63'- linked polyubiquitin chains which activate the MAP3K7/TAK1 complex which in turn results in the induction and expression of NF-kappa-B and MAPK-responsive inflammatory genes. Together with RNF135 and UB2V1, catalyzes the viral RNA-dependent 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitination of RIG-I/DDX58 to activate the downstream signaling pathway that leads to interferon beta production (PubMed:28469175, PubMed:31006531). UBE2V1- UBE2N together with TRAF3IP2 E3 ubiquitin ligase mediate 'Lys-63'- linked polyubiquitination of TRAF6, a component of IL17A-mediated signaling pathway. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10089880, ECO:0000269|PubMed:14562038, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19269966, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19825828, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20061386, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21512573, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28469175, ECO:0000269|PubMed:31006531}. | |

| Activity regulation: | Activity is inhibited by binding to OTUB1, which prevents 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitination (PubMed:20725033, PubMed:22325355, PubMed:22367539). Activity is inhibited by GPS2, leading to prevent 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitination (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P61089, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20725033, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22325355, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22367539}. | |
