Ubc13 is an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme that can form a heterodimer with Mms2 to function as a part of the Translesion DNA Synthesis Pathway (TLS),ref name=anderspn>1. Andersen, P. L.; Zhou, H. F.; Pastushok, L. F.; Moraes, T. F.; McKenna, S. F.; Ziola B FAU - Ellison, Michael,J.; FAU, E. M.; FAU, D. V.; Xiao, W. Distinct regulation of Ubc13 functions by the two ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme variants Mms2 and Uev1A. The Journal of cell biology JID - 0375356 1107.</ref>. When bound to Mms2, Ubc13 will polyubiquitinate proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), a sliding clamp protein at the DNA transcription fork. Ubc13-Mms2 functions to polyubiquitinate PCNA following the initial monoubiquitination by Rad6-Rad18 (another E2 complex).
