UBA1 domain found in vertebrate ubiquitin-associated protein 1 (UBAP-1) UBAP-1, also called nasopharyngeal carcinoma-associated gene 20 protein, is a ubiquitously expressed protein that may play an important role in the ubiquitin pathway and cell progression. It co-localizes with TDP-43 proteins in neuronal cytoplasmic inclusions and acts as a genetic risk factor for frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD). Moreover, UBAP-1, together with VPS37A, forms an endosome-specific endosomal sorting complexes I required for transport (ESCRT-I) complex that displays a restricted cellular function, ubiquitin-dependent endosomal sorting and multivesicular body (MVB) biogenesis. UBAP-1 contains an N-terminal UBAP-1-MVB12-associated (UMA) domain, and two tandem ubiquitin-associated (UBA) domains that may be responsible for the binding of ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes. This model corresponds to UBA1 domain.
