Target description

Ubiquitin D (UniProt: O15205; also known as Diubiquitin, UBD, Ubiquitin-like protein FAT10) is encoded by the UBD (also known as FAT10) gene (Gene ID: 10537) in human. FAT10 is a ubiquitin-like modifier protein that is involved in various cellular processes, including apoptosis, cell cycle control, and NF- B activation. It is constitutively expressed in mature dendritic cells and B-cells. Its expression is observed in the reticuloendothelial system, the gastrointestinal system, kidney, lung, and prostate gland. It is detected in the nucleus as well as cytoplasm. It has two ubiquitin-like domains (aa 6-81 and 90-163). It can covalently attach to target protein and lead to their degradation by the 26S proteasome, in a NUB1-dependent manner. Its conjugation ability activated by UBA6. It regulates TNF -induced and LPS-mediated activation of NF- B by promoting TNF - mediated proteasomal degradation of I B . It is reported to mediate mitotic non-disjunction and chromosome instability, in long-term in vitro culture and cancers, by abbreviating mitotic phase and impairing the kinetochore localization of mitotic arrest deficient 2 like 1 (MAD2L1) during the prometaphase stage. It mediates apoptosis in a caspase-dependent manner, especially in renal epithelium and tubular cells during renal diseases such as polycystic kidney disease and HIV-associated nephropathy. p62 protein that is involved in autophagy is covalently mono-FAT10ylated at several lysine residues, which leads to proteasomal degradation of p62. Prolonged induction of endogenous FAT10 by pro-inflammatory cytokines leads to a reduction in endogenous p62 levels. Clone 4F1 displays high-affinity for FAT10 and can immunoprecipitate monomeric FAT10 and FAT10-conjugated substrates. (Ref.: Aichem, A., et al. (2012). J.
