At5g03240: UBQ3 (POLYUBIQUITIN 3)

encodes ubiquitin that is attached to proteins destined for degradation. UBQ3 is most homologous with UBQ4, and is expressed in higher levels in vegetative tissue but lower levels in flowers than UBQ4. UBQ3 encodes different number of ubiquitins in different ecotypes. UBQ3 transcript level is modulated by UV-B and light/dark treatments.
