UBE2W accepts ubiquitin from the E1 complex and catalyzes its covalent attachment to other proteins. This protein in vitro catalyzes monoubiquitination and Lys-11-linked polyubiquitination. UBE2W is widely expressed, especially at highest levels in testis. Purified by using conventional chromatography techniques. Source: Recombinant corresponding to aa1-151 of human UBE2W, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, expressed in E.coli.
