[[ | Ubc9, PDB file: [[1U9A]] an ubiquitin conjugating enzyme, participates not in the ubiquitinylation pathway but in the sumoylation pathway. This pathway links a SUMO molecule to a targeted protein.<ref name="Filip">PMID:14739995</ref> | ||
Ubc9’s conjugation with [[SUMO]] and not [[ubiquitin]] results in the targeted protein being tagged not for degradation, but to modify the protein for use in regulation, enhancing protein activity, and/or cell cycle functions.<ref name="Muller">PMID:11265250</ref><ref name="Victor">PMID:11853669</ref> | Ubc9’s conjugation with [[SUMO]] and not [[ubiquitin]] results in the targeted protein being tagged not for degradation, but to modify the protein for use in regulation, enhancing protein activity, and/or cell cycle functions.<ref name="Muller">PMID:11265250</ref><ref name="Victor">PMID:11853669</ref> | ||
