ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a human ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme (HUCE-1) and polynucleotides which identify and encode HUCE-1. The invention also provides expression vectors, host cells, agonists, antibodies and antagonists. The invention also provides methods for treating disorders associated with expression of HUCE-1.
