The N-end rule is mediated by the UBC2(RAD6) ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme.
Open accessAbstract
The N-end rule relates the in vivo half-life of a protein to the identity of its amino-terminal residue. Distinct versions of the N-end rule operate in all organisms examined, from mammals to bacteria. We show that UBC2(RAD6), one of at least seven ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is essential for multiubiquitination and degradation of the N-end rule substrates. We also show that UBC2 is physically associated with UBR1, the recognition component of the N-end rule pathway. These results indicate that some of the UBC2 functions, which include DNA repair, induced mutagenesis, sporulation, and regulation of retrotransposition, are mediated by protein degradation via the N-end rule pathway.

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.
