Uba6 - ubiquitin-like modifier activating enzyme 6

Predicted to enable FAT10 activating enzyme activity and ubiquitin activating enzyme activity. Predicted to be involved in cellular response to DNA damage stimulus; protein ubiquitination; and ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including dendritic spine development; learning; and limbic system development. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and nucleus. Orthologous to human UBA6 (ubiquitin like modifier activating enzyme 6). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
