Ubiquitin is a small (8.6 kDa) regulatory protein found in most tissues of eukaryotic organisms

Ubiquitin is a small protein used in cell biology.
Its job is to tag proteins that are damaged or no longer needed.
What ubiquitination means
Ubiquitination = attaching ubiquitin to a protein
This tag sends the protein to the proteasome
The proteasome breaks the protein down and destroys it
What it means as an insult
“Ubiquitin yourself” means:
“Mark yourself for deletion”
“Erase yourself”
“You shouldn’t exist / you’re unnecessary”
It’s basically a scientific-sounding way to say “go disappear.”
