Post-translational modification of proteins by ubiquitin (Ub) is a key regulatory process that impacts almost all cellular functions. Ubiquitylation occurs through isopeptide linkage between the C-terminus of Ub and the e-amino group of a lysine (Lys) residue on the target substrate [1]. Ub itself has seven Lys residues (6, 11, 27, 29, 33, 48, and 63), any of which can participate in further ubiquitylation, generating polyUb chains [2, 3].  Monitoring the ubiquitylation of target proteins or the growth of polyubiquitin chains has traditionally been carried out with either radiolabeled or epitope-tagged ubiquitin requiring long and laborious detection methods.  Fluorescently labeled ubiquitin provides a rapid, facile technique for studying ubiquitin conjugation in vitro.  Unlike others, LifeSensors’ TAMRA-labeled ubiquitin carries a single TAMRA molecule attached at a defined location and avoids modification of either the N-terminus or Lys side chains.

Life Sensors的泛素和泛素链泛素是一种小的多肽，通过其C端与目标蛋白上的赖氨酸的ε-氨基缀合。这种缀合称为单泛素化。随后，可以利用遍在蛋白表面上的七个赖氨酸残基（K6，K11，K27，K29，K33，K48，K63）中的任何一个，将额外的遍在蛋白部分与初始遍在蛋白结合。这种泛素链形成称为多泛素化。泛素的酶结合是通过一系列酶进行的，即泛素激活酶E1，泛素结合酶E2和泛素连接酶E3。蛋白质的泛素化在细胞中是可逆的。单泛素化和多泛素化的链均被去泛素化酶催化的水解作用裂解 （DUB）。LifeSensors在遍在泛素途径的所有水平的酶（包括E1，E2和E3酶和DUB）上都有丰富的经验。LifeSensors对蛋白质纯化的广泛了解使我们能够生产大约30种E2酶，20种E3酶和35个DUB，并具有定制表达的能力。此外，我们广泛的检测方法简化了确认酶活性和确定E2-E3对兼容性的过程，并确保您可以选择最能解决希望探索的特定，关键生物学问题的酶。LifeSensors已为您的研究开发了多种泛素衍生物，包括用于结合相互作用研究的DUB耐药性聚泛素链，用于DUB分析和筛选的泛素结合物（荧光团和报告酶），选择性泛素链（二，三和四环素）泛素链）用于DUB特异性和结合测定，位点特异性赖氨酸泛素突变体用于E3连接酶和DUB选择性测定。
