Background
UBD, also designated ubiquitin D or diubiquitin, plays a role in antigen presentation, cytokine response and apoptosis. It is a 165 amino acid protein encoded in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) that consists of two domains which share significant homology with ubiquitin (1,2). UBD is inducible by interferon gamma and TNF-alpha and regulates TNF-alpha-induced and LPS-mediated activation of the central mediator of innate immunity NF-kappa-B by promoting TNF-alpha-mediated proteasomal degradation of ubiquitinated-I-kappa-B-alpha (3). It may also regulate cell growth during dendritic cell or B cell activation and development (4,5).
