Protein attributes

Sequence length	1058 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is not processed.
Protein existence	Evidence at protein level.

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Activates ubiquitin by first adenylating with ATP its carboxy-terminal glycine residue and thereafter linking this residue to the side chain of a cysteine residue in E1, yielding an ubiquitin-E1 thioester and free AMP.
Pathway	Protein modification; protein ubiquitination.
Subunit structure	Monomer By similarity.
Involvement in disease	Defects in UBA1 are the cause of infantile X-linked spinal muscular atrophy (XLSMA) [MIM:301830]; also known as X-linked lethal infantile spinal muscular atrophy or X-linked spinal muscular atrophy type 2 (SMAX2) or distal X-linked arthrogryposis multiplex congenita, or X-linked arthrogryposis type 1 (AMCX1). XLSMA is an X-linked disorder presenting with hypotonia, areflexia, and multiple congenital contractures associated with loss of anterior horn cells and infantile death.
Miscellaneous	There are two active sites within the E1 molecule, allowing it to accommodate two ubiquitin moieties at a time, with a new ubiquitin forming an adenylate intermediate as the previous one is transferred to the thiol site.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the ubiquitin-activating E1 family.
