Function
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 proteotoxic stress response and cell cycle; 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. Large ribosomal subunit protein eL40. Component of the 60S subunit of the ribosome (PubMed:23169626, PubMed:23636399, PubMed:32669547, PubMed:39048817, PubMed:39103523). Ribosomal protein L40 is essential for translation of a subset of cellular transcripts, and especially for cap-dependent translation of vesicular stomatitis virus mRNAs (PubMed:23169626, PubMed:23636399, PubMed:32669547, PubMed:39048817, PubMed:39103523).

- Activity summary
UBA52 also known as Ubiquitin A-52 Residue Ribosomal Protein Fusion Product 1 is a protein fusion of ubiquitin and ribosomal protein L40. It has a mass of approximately 15 kDa. UBA52 expresses widely in various tissues including the liver brain and heart playing a role in protein synthesis and ubiquitination. The ubiquitin domain of UBA52 gets translated and cleaved to participate in the ubiquitin-proteasome system while the ribosomal component integrates into the 60S subunit of the ribosome.
- Biological function summary
UBA52 functions as both a ribosomal protein and a source of ubiquitin. This dual role enables it to participate in protein synthesis as part of the ribosome. Additionally it provides ubiquitin required for post-translational modification of proteins affecting protein stability and degradation. UBA52 is part of the ribosome complex and contributes to efficient protein translation while its ubiquitin segment influences protein turnover and cellular response to stress.
- Pathways
UBA52 plays roles in protein translation and ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis. These pathways are essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis. In the context of protein synthesis UBA52 associates with other ribosomal proteins and supports the assembly of the ribosome facilitating mRNA translation. In the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway UBA52 contributes ubiquitin moieties used to tag proteins for degradation working with E2 and E3 ligases such as UBE2K and HUWE1 important for regulated proteolysis.
- Associated diseases and disorders
UBA52 is linked to conditions involving protein synthesis defects and improper protein degradation including cancer and neurodegenerative disorders. Changes in UBA52 expression or mutations can disrupt ribosome function affecting cellular proliferation and survival in cancers. Additionally impaired ubiquitin signaling has implications in neurodegenerative diseases where protein aggregates form due to faulty degradation. UBA52's connection to pathways with proteins like p53 in cancer and Parkin in neurodegeneration further illustrates its relevance across different pathologies.
