OCTOBER 2013 : Crown insight HIP2 Introduction HIP2 or Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2 K is a protein that in humans is encoded by the UBE2K gene. UBE2K belongs to the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family: it accepts ubiquitin from the E1 complex and catalyzes its covalent attachment to other proteins. It was shown to mediate the selective degradation of short-lived and abnormal proteins, such as the endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) of misfolded lumenal proteins. HIP2 is expressed in all tissues but has high levels in brain, especially in cortex and striatum and at lower levels in cerebellum and brainstem. HIP2 was shown to bind selectively to a large region at the N terminus of huntingtin AP2114c (HIP2) protein leading to its proteasomal degradation (see stage 4 in molecular model). Dysfunction of HIP2 activity causes inhibition Fluorescent image of Hela cell stained with HIP2 Antibody (Center) of proteasome activity and intraneuronal accumulation of (Cat#AP2114c/SH030911H). Hela cells were fixed with 4% PFA (20 min), ubiquitin conjugates. Consequently, HIP2 is implicated in permeabilized with Triton X-100 (0.1%, 10 min), then incubated with HIP2 primary antibody (1:25, 1 h at 37°C). For secondary antibody, Alexa Fluor® toxicity of neurodegenerative disorders. 488 conjugated donkey anti-rabbit antibody (green) was used (1:400, 50 min Refolding at 37°C). Cytoplasmic actin was counterstained with Alexa Fluor® 555 (red) 2 Hsp70 PolyQ conjugated Phalloidin (7units/ml, 1 h at 37°C). HIP2 is localized to cytoplasm.
