It plays a central role in the ubiquitination process by adding ubiquitin to specific substrate proteins. UBE3A is found in many tissues but has high expression levels in the brain especially in neurons. The proper function of UBE3A requires its interaction with the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2 marking target proteins for proteasomal degradation or other cellular processes.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThe role of UBE3A is connected to protein homeostasis and turnover. It is part of the ubiquitin-proteasome system which regulates the degradation of damaged or unneeded proteins. UBE3A does not work alone; it functions as part of a larger E3 ligase complex. This complex selectively identifies and modifies proteins determining their fate within the cell. The precision of UBE3A in these processes is necessary for normal neural development and synaptic plasticity.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nUBE3A is involved in the synaptic transmission and neuronal signaling pathways. It interacts with proteins such as HERC2 and RAD18 which are involved in DNA damage response and repair. UBE3A's involvement in these pathways highlights its importance in maintaining neuronal health. This protein’s activity influences downstream signaling events affecting processes like synaptic function and neuronal communication.\u003cbr\u003e\nDisruptions in UBE3A activity link to Angelman syndrome and autism spectrum disorders. Angelman syndrome results from the loss of function of the maternal UBE3A gene leading to severe neurological impairments. UBE3A's relationship with proteins like MECP2 involved in gene regulation suggests a broader role in neurodevelopmental disorders. Research continues to explore how UBE3A and its interaction partners contribute to the underlying mechanisms of these diseases.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46845154427049,"sku":"ab306798","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/es\/products\/abcam-ab306798","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
