Ubiquitin is a highly-conserved small protein expressed in all eukaryotes. It is involved in a post-translation modification of proteins called ubiquitination of proteins by the covalent attachment (via an isopeptide bond) of one or more than one ubiquitin monomers. Ubiqutination controls the protein degradation, stability and intracellular localization of many proteins.
