A novel UBA1 gene mutation in a patient with infantile respiratory distress syndrome [PDF]
UBA1 is an E1 ubiquitin-activating enzyme that initiates the ubiquitylation of target proteins and is thus a key component of the ubiquitin signaling pathway.

Description of a novel splice site variant in UBA1 gene causing VEXAS syndrome [PDF]
Abstract Objective Vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, autoinflammatory, somatic (VEXAS) syndrome is a complex immune disorder consequence of somatic UBA1 variants. Most reported pathogenic UBA1 variants are missense or splice site mutations directly impairing the translational start site at p.Met41, with ...

X-Linked Spinal Muscular Atrophy 2 due to a Synonymous Variant in the UBA1 Gene in a Family with Novel Findings from Turkey. [PDF]
Spinal muscular atrophy, X-linked 2 (SMAX2) is a rare type of spinal muscular atrophy characterized by muscle weakness, hypotonia, areflexia, myopathic face, tongue fibrillations, contractures, bone fractures, and cryptorchidism. Variants of the <i>UBA1</i> gene lead to SMAX2.

A rapid, accessible real-time PCR approach to identify UBA1 somatic mutations in VEXAS syndrome [PDF]
BackgroundVEXAS (vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, autoinflammatory, somatic) syndrome is a severe adult-onset autoinflammatory disease caused by somatic mutations in the X-linked UBA1 gene, most commonly affecting codon 41.

Mutation of the Gene Encoding the Ubiquitin Activating Enzyme Uba1 Causes Tissue Overgrowth in Drosophila [PDF]
Protein ubiquitination has been shown to regulate a wide variety of cellular process including cell cycle progression, protein trafficking and apoptosis. Most regulation of ubiquitination occurs at the level of E2 or E3 enzymes and their interactions with specific substrates. In a screen for mutations that cause tissue overgrowth, we recovered multiple
