the U-box domain is essentiel for the involvement of Ufd2 in Pex29 degradation. Pex29 is a peroxiisomal membrane protein that regulates the number and size of peroxisomes. Pex29 is regulated by ubiquitin-protein E3 ligase. Further extension of the growing ubiquitin chain requires assistance of Ufd2 due to the spatial positioning of the E3 and its substrate. Ufd2 elongates Pex29 with predominatly Lys48-linked ubiquitin chain in vivo

LITERATURE
physiological function
Ufd2 catalyses K48-linked multi-monoubiquitination on K29-linked ubiquitin chains assembled by the ubiquitin ligase Ufd4, resulting in branched ubiquitin chains. The reaction depends on the interaction of K29-linked ubiquitin chains with two N-terminal loops of Ufd2. Only following the addition of K48-linked ubiquitin to substrates modified with K29-linked ubiquitin chains, the substrates can be escorted to the proteasome for degradation. This ubiquitin chain linkage switching reaction is essential for ERAD, oleic acid and acid pH resistance in yeast
physiological function
-
E4 is an additional factor working together with ubiquitin-activating enzyme E1, ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2, and ubiquitin transferase E3, in some cases specifically required for multiubiquitin chain polymerization, a function attributed to Ufd2, the first protein designated as an E4
CRYSTALLIZATION (Commentary)
ORGANISM
UNIPROT
LITERATURE
crystal structure of Ufd2 in complex with the ubiquitin-like (UBL) and ubiquitin-associated (UBA) proteins Rad23 and Dsk2 domains, PDB-ID: 3M62 and 3M63, respectively. The structure of Ufd2 is solved in complex with Rad23-UBL carrying either an N-terminal or a C-terminal His tag, refined at 2.4 A resolution. Ufd2 is composed of an N-terminal variable domain, a core domain, and a C-termional U-box with a fold similar to that of RING. The structure of Ufd2 with Dsk2-UBL is solved by molecular replacement. THe structure exhibits increased flexibility, in particular with a C-terminally tagged UBL domain. The N-terminal, tagged protein structure is refined at 2.4 A resolution. The N-terminal UBL-binding region of yeast Ufd2 is conserved on lower eukaryotes
