Summary

Protein Function

UBA1 participates in ubiquitination and the NEDD8 pathway for protein folding and degradation, among many other biological processes.
This protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the first step in ubiquitin conjugation, or ubiquitination, to mark cellular proteins for degradation. Specifically, UBA1 catalyzes the ATP-dependent adenylation of ubiquitin, thereby forming a thioester bond between the two. It also continues to participate in subsequent steps of ubiquination as a Ub carrier. (From Wikipedia)
ATP + ubiquitin + [E1 ubiquitin-activating enzyme]-L-cysteine = AMP + diphosphate + S-ubiquitinyl-[E1 ubiquitin-activating enzyme]-L-cysteine.

Cys Function & Property

Both Cys234 and Cys179 are located within the first catalytic cysteine domain (FCCH) of E1, a subdomain conserved in human E1 that spans from residues 175–265 and forms one wall of a broad deep groove unique to eukaryotic E1. The rat Cys234 location is identical to that reported for human E1 in vitro, whereas the modified Cys179 on rat E1 represents an additional modification. (PMID: 22874009)
