Short Name | Ubl_UBL4A-like |
description | UBL4A (also known as GdX) is a ubiquitously expressed ubiquitin-like (Ubl) protein that forms a complex with partner proteins and participates in the protein processing through endoplasmic reticulum (ER), acting as a chaperone. As a key component of the BCL2-associated athanogene 6 (BAG6) chaperone complex, UBL4A plays a role in mediating DNA damage signaling and cell death [, ]. UBL4A also regulates insulin-induced Akt plasma membrane translocation through promotion of Arp2/3-dependent actin branching []. Moreover, UBL4A specifically stabilises the TC45/STAT3 association and promotes dephosphorylation of STAT3 to repress tumorigenesis [].This is the ubiquitin-like domain of UBL4A and related proteins. |
