URM1

Introduction

Pfam

Urm1 is a ubiquitin related protein that modifies proteins in the yeast ubiquitin-like pathway urmylation [1]. Structural comparisons and phylogenetic analysis of the ubiquitin superfamily has indicated that Urm1 has the most conserved structural and sequence features of the common ancestor of the entire superfamily [2].

Ubiquitin related modifier 1 (Urm1) is a ubiquitin related protein that modifies proteins in the yeast ubiquitin-like urmylation pathway [PUBMED:16864801]. Structural comparisons and phylogenetic analysis of the ubiquitin superfamily has indicated that Urm1 has the most conserved structural and sequence features of the common ancestor of the entire superfamily [PUBMED:14551258]. Urm1 acts as a sulfur carrier required for 2-thiolation of mcm5S2U at tRNA wobble positions of cytosolic tRNA(Lys), tRNA(Glu) and tRNA(Gln) [PUBMED:21209336].
