GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
UBE4A (HGNC Symbol)

E4, KIAA0126, UBOX2, UFD2
Description
Ubiquitination factor E4A (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a member of the U-box ubiquitin ligase family. The encoded protein is involved in multiubiquitin chain assembly and plays a critical role in chromosome condensation and separation through the polyubiquitination of securin. Autoantibodies against the encoded protein may be markers for scleroderma and Crohn's disease. A pseudogene of this gene is located on the long arm of chromosome 3. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2011]
