Abcam has not and does not intend to apply for the REACH Authorisation of customers' uses of products that contain European Authorisation list (Annex XIV) substances.
It is the responsibility of our customers to check the necessity of application of REACH Authorisation, and any other relevant authorisations, for their intended uses.
Lysate preparation: Our lysates are made using RIPA buffer to which we add a protease inhibitor cocktail and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (ratio: 300:100:10). This means that the protein of interest is denatured. If you require a native form of the protein please use the live cell version. Please refer to our lysis protocol for further details on how our lysates are prepared.
User storage instructions: Lyophilizate may be stored at 4°C. After reconstitution, store at -20°C for short-term storage or -80°C for long-term storage.
This product is subject to limited use licenses from The Broad Institute, ERS Genomics Limited and Sigma-Aldrich Co. LLC, and is developed with patented technology. For full details of the licenses and patents please refer to our limited use license and patent pages.
Supplementary info

- Activity summary
UFM1 also called ubiquitin-fold modifier 1 is a small protein modifier with a mass of approximately 9 kDa. It is part of the ubiquitin-like protein family and primarily expressed in a wide range of tissues. UFM1 is involved in a unique form of post-translational modification known as UFMylation where it conjugates to substrate proteins altering their function and stability. This process plays a role in regulating cell cycle and apoptosis among other cellular processes.
- Biological function summary
UFM1 functions as a signaling molecule that influences various cellular pathways. It acts as part of a complex with other enzymes including UBA5 UFC1 and UFL1 which are important for its conjugation process. This modification system plays a role in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response by affecting proteins involved in ER-associated degradation (ERAD). Its interaction with these proteins helps cells manage stress and maintain homeostasis.
- Pathways
UFM1 participates in the ER stress response pathway and is also connected to the mTOR signaling pathway. Both pathways are essential for cell growth and survival. Within these pathways UFM1 interacts with proteins like mLST8 in the mTOR pathway integrating signals that coordinate cell metabolism growth and apoptosis. The precise regulation of these pathways highlights UFM1's role in maintaining cellular equilibrium.
- Associated diseases and disorders
UFM1 has been linked to cancer and congenital disorders. Altered UFMylation due to mutations in related genes can contribute to tumor development by affecting protein degradation and cellular stress responses. In hereditary conditions dysfunctional UFM1 activity can lead to rare disorders affecting metabolism and neurological function. Proteins like mLST8 which interact with UFM1 in pathways can also play a role in these disease mechanisms suggesting potential targets for therapeutic intervention.
