- | + | Ubc9 is a part of the SUMOylation process. It is the enzyme responsible for ligating the SUMO to the protein. Depending on whether the reaction is done ''in vitro'', it will ligate the SUMO directly to the substrate, and if done ''in vivo'', the SUMO will be ligated to the conjugating enzyme and then put onto the substrate. ^2^ | |
