CDC34 is a gene that in humans encodes the protein Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2 R1. This protein is a member of the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family, which catalyzes the covalent attachment of ubiquitin to other proteins. CDC34 was originally discovered by work in baker's yeast as a gene that is essential for the cell cycle. Cdc34 in yeast targets numerous substrates - notably the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor Sic1 - for ubiquitin-mediated protein degradation. CDC34 is required for ubiquitin-mediated degradation of cell cycle G1 regulators, and for the initiation of DNA replication.
