== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/UBC_BOVIN UBC_BOVIN] Ubiquitin: Exists either covalently attached to another protein, or free (unanchored). When covalently bound, it is conjugated to target proteins via an isopeptide bond either as a monomer (monoubiquitin), a polymer linked via different Lys residues of the ubiquitin (polyubiquitin chains) or a linear polymer linked via the initiator Met of the ubiquitin (linear polyubiquitin chains). Polyubiquitin chains, when attached to a target protein, have different functions depending on the Lys residue of the ubiquitin that is linked: Lys-6-linked may be involved in DNA repair; Lys-11-linked is involved in ERAD (endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation) and in cell-cycle regulation; Lys-29-linked is involved in lysosomal degradation; Lys-33-linked is involved in kinase modification; Lys-48-linked is involved in protein degradation via the proteasome; Lys-63-linked is involved in endocytosis, DNA-damage responses as well as in signaling processes leading to activation of the transcription factor NF-kappa-B. Linear polymer chains formed via attachment by the initiator Met lead to cell signaling. Ubiquitin is usually conjugated to Lys residues of target proteins, however, in rare cases, conjugation to Cys or Ser residues has been observed. When polyubiquitin is free (unanchored-polyubiquitin), it also has distinct roles, such as in activation of protein kinases, and in signaling (By similarity).

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
The protein kinase TAK1 is activated by binding to Lys63 (K63)-linked ubiquitin chains through its subunit TAB2. Here we analyze crystal structures of the TAB2 NZF domain bound to Lys63-linked di- and triubiquitin, revealing that TAB2 binds adjacent ubiquitin moieties via two distinct binding sites. The conformational constraints imposed by TAB2 on a Lys63 dimer cannot be adopted by linear chains, explaining why TAK1 cannot be activated by linear ubiquitination events.

Two-sided ubiquitin binding explains specificity of the TAB2 NZF domain.,Kulathu Y, Akutsu M, Bremm A, Hofmann K, Komander D Nat Struct Mol Biol. 2009 Dec;16(12):1328-30. Epub 2009 Nov 22. PMID:19935683<ref>PMID:19935683</ref>
