Protein
SUMO-conjugating enzyme ubc9
Organism
Schizosaccharomyces pombe (strain 972 / ATCC 24843)
Function
Catalyzes the covalent attachment of ubiquitin-like protein SUMO/Smt3 to other proteins. Required for efficient recovery from DNA damage or S-phase arrest and normal mitosis. This may be as part of a checkpoint independent recovery process.
Similarity
Belongs to the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family.
