Abstract excerpt
AtUBC2 of Arabidopsis thaliana encodes a structural homolog of the RAD6 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae with approximately 65% identical amino acids. Like structural homologs from other organisms, AtUBC2 lacks the carboxyl-terminal extension of mostly acidic amino acids which is present in Rad6p. AtUBC2 was expressed in S. cerevisiae rad6 mutants. It was found to partially complement the UV sensitivity and...
