[[Ubiquitin]] (UBB) is found in almost all cells. It binds to proteins tagging them for destruction in the proteasome. UBB is activated by the UBB-activating enzymes E1, E2 and E3. UBB+1 is a frameshifted mutant of UBB observed in several diseases. A dimer of UBB (DiUBB) is formed by linkage of K48 to the C-terminus of a second UBB molecule. At least 4 UBB molecules are needed to tag a protein for the proteasome<ref>PMID:9759494</ref>. For details see<br />

The UBB-proteasome system deregulation has been implicated in the pathogenesis of many neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson disease, Huntington disease, Prion-like lethal disorders and in genetic diseases like cystic fibrosis, angelman's syndrome, Liddle syndrome and many cancers<ref>PMID:18937370</ref>.
