UBE2F (Ubiquitin-Conjugating Enzyme E2 F) is a member of the E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family, which plays a critical role in the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS). This system regulates protein degradation, cellular homeostasis, and various signaling pathways by tagging target proteins with ubiquitin for proteasomal destruction. UBE2F specifically partners with E3 ligases, such as cullin-RING ligases (CRLs) like CUL5-RBX2 complexes, to facilitate the transfer of ubiquitin to substrate proteins. Unlike other E2 enzymes, UBE2F is unique in its ability to catalyze the neddylation of cullin proteins, a post-translational modification essential for CRL activation and substrate recognition.

Research has highlighted UBE2F's involvement in diverse biological processes, including viral infection responses, cell cycle regulation, and stress signaling. For example, it contributes to the degradation of viral proteins and cellular regulators like p53 under certain conditions. Dysregulation of UBE2F has been linked to diseases such as cancer, where its overexpression may promote tumorigenesis by destabilizing tumor suppressors or stabilizing oncoproteins.

UBE2F antibodies are essential tools for studying its expression, localization, and interactions in cellular contexts. These antibodies enable detection via techniques like Western blotting, immunoprecipitation, and immunofluorescence. Validated antibodies help elucidate UBE2F's role in UPS mechanisms, its pathological implications, and potential therapeutic targeting. Ongoing studies aim to clarify its substrate specificity and regulatory networks, positioning UBE2F as a molecule of interest in both basic research and drug development.
