UBTD2 is an ubiquitin （Ub） domain-containing protein， originally recognized in dendritic cells， that takes part in ubiquitination pathway. Ubiquitin is the best understood post-translation modifier； however， there is a growing family of ubiquitin-like proteins （UBLs） who change cellular targets in a pathway. UbL proteins take part in a variation of cellular courses， like DNA repair， protein sorting， protein degradation， cell division， apoptosis and autophagy.
