UBE2B

UBE2B is a type of enzyme involved in the process of protein regulation within cells. It helps tag unwanted or damaged proteins with a small molecule called ubiquitin, marking them for destruction or other cellular processes. This tagging system, known as ubiquitination, is essential for maintaining healthy cell function, controlling protein levels, and responding to stress or damage. UBE2B works closely with other enzymes to ensure proteins are correctly marked so the cell can efficiently remove or repurpose them, supporting overall cellular health and preventing diseases caused by malfunctioning proteins.
