Molecular cloning and characterization of human AOS1 and UBA2, components of the sentrin‐activating enzyme complex

Gong, Limin, Li, Bing, Millas, Stefanos, Yeh, Edward T.H.·1999·FEBS Letters

Abstract

Sentrin‐1/SUMO‐1 is a novel ubiquitin‐like protein, which can covalently modify a limited number of cellular proteins. Here we report the identification of the sentrin‐activating enzyme complex, which consists of two proteins AOS1 and UBA2. Human AOS1 is homologous to the N‐terminal half of E 1, whereas human UBA2 is homologous to the C‐terminal half of E 1. The human UBA2 gene is located on chromosome 19q12. Human UBA2 could form a β‐mercaptoethanol‐sensitive conjugate with members of the sentrin family, but not with ubiquitin of NEDD8, in the presence of AOS1. Identification of human UBA2 and AOS1 should allow a more detailed analysis of the enzymology of the activation of ubiquitin‐like proteins.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
