Ub dimer formation assay by His-UBC22. An in vitro Ub dimer formation assay was performed with (lanes 2, 4, 6, and 8) or without (lanes 1, 3, 5, and 7) the addition of His-UBC22. The components added in the different reactions are indicated at the top of the figure. The conjugation reactions were performed at 30 °C for 4 hours. Assay samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Ub and Ub dimer were detected by western blotting using an anti-Ub antibody. Free Ub and Ub dimer (Ub2) are indicated at the right side of the figure. For the K11R mutant, no new Ub dimer formation was seen when His-UBC22 protein was added. Due to slight impurity in the recombinant K11R protein, one weak band was present which is slightly higher than the Ub dimer synthesized when His-UBC22 was added. Three experiments were performed and produced similar results.
