High impact information on UBC8

In yeast-two hybrid assays, AtSUMO1/2 interacts specifically with a SUMO-conjugating enzyme but not with a ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme [1].
Quantitative reverse transcription-PCR confirmed superior expression stability and lower absolute expression levels for many of these genes, including genes encoding a protein phosphatase 2A subunit, a coatomer subunit, and an ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme [2].
CIP8 exhibits a strong interaction with the E2 enzyme AtUBC8 through its N-terminal domain [3].
Our data suggest that CIP8 can form a minimal ubiquitin ligase in co-operation with the E2 enzyme AtUBC8 [3].
