Inactivating UBE2M impacts the DNA damage response and genome integrity involving multiple cullin ligases. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Protein neddylation is involved in a wide variety of cellular processes. Here we show that the DNA damage response is perturbed in cells inactivated with an E2 Nedd8 conjugating enzyme UBE2M, measured by RAD51 foci formation kinetics and cell based DNA ...

RNF126, 168 and CUL1: The Potential Utilization of Multi-Functional E3 Ubiquitin Ligases in Genome Maintenance for Cancer Therapy

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2023
Ubiquitination is a post-translational modification (PTM) that is involved in proteolysis, protein–protein interaction, and signal transduction. Accumulation of mutations and genomic instability are characteristic of cancer cells, and dysfunction of the ...

Novel E3 ubiquitin ligases that regulate histone protein levels in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Core histone proteins are essential for packaging the genomic DNA into chromatin in all eukaryotes. Since multiple genes encode these histone proteins, there is potential for generating more histones than what is required for chromatin assembly.

Targeted Degradation of 53BP1 Using Ubiquitin Variant Induced Proximity

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
In recent years, researchers have leveraged the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) to induce selective degradation of proteins by E3 ubiquitin ligases, which has great potential as novel therapeutics for human diseases, including cancer and ...

CRL Ubiquitin Ligases and DNA Damage Response

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2012
Cullin/RING ubiquitin ligases (CRL) comprise the largest subfamily of ubiquitin ligases and are involved in various biological processes. One of the main functions of CRLs is to regulate DNA damage response, a fundamental signaling cascade to maintain ...

Comprehensive analysis of the expression and prognosis for RBR E3 ubiquitin ligases in lung adenocarcinoma

open access: yesThoracic Cancer, 2022
Background Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the most common subtype of non‐small cell lung cancer and has a poor prognosis. RBR E3 ubiquitin ligases are a special class of E3 ubiquitin ligases which contain three zinc‐bing domains that catalyze ubiquitin to

The regulatory roles of the E3 ubiquitin ligase NEDD4 family in DNA damage response

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
E3 ubiquitin ligases, an important part of ubiquitin proteasome system, catalyze the covalent binding of ubiquitin to target substrates, which plays a role in protein ubiquitination and regulates different biological process. DNA damage response (DDR) is

Evolution of DNA ligases of Nucleo-Cytoplasmic Large DNA viruses of eukaryotes: a case of hidden complexity

open access: yesBiology Direct, 2009
Background Eukaryotic Nucleo-Cytoplasmic Large DNA Viruses (NCLDV) encode most if not all of the enzymes involved in their DNA replication. It has been inferred that genes for these enzymes were already present in the last common ancestor of the NCLDV ...

DNA Ligase I Is Not Essential for Mammalian Cell Viability

open access: yesCell Reports, 2014
Summary: Of the three DNA ligases present in all vertebrates, DNA ligase I (Lig1) has been considered essential for ligating Okazaki fragments during DNA replication and thereby essential for cell viability.

Plant E3 Ligases and Their Role in Abiotic Stress Response

open access: yesCells, 2022
Plants, as sessile organisms, have limited means to cope with environmental changes. Consequently, they have developed complex regulatory systems to ameliorate abiotic stresses im-posed by environmental changes.
