Ubiquitin

Manufactured by Abcam
Sourced in United States, United Kingdom

Ubiquitin is a small regulatory protein that is found in all eukaryotic cells. It is involved in the tagging of proteins for degradation by the proteasome, a process known as ubiquitination. Ubiquitin can be used in a variety of laboratory applications, such as the study of protein degradation pathways and the investigation of cellular processes regulated by ubiquitination.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
