Abstract excerpt
Highly conserved during evolution, the enzyme Ubc9 activates the small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) prior to its covalent ligation to target proteins. We have used mutations in the Drosophila Ubc9 (dUbc9) gene to understand Ubc9 functions in vivo. Loss-of-function mutations in dUbc9 cause stron...
