SCF Ligases and Their Functions in Oogenesis and Embryogenesis—Summary of the Most Important Findings throughout the Animal Kingdom

open access: yesCells, 2022
SCF-dependent proteolysis was first discovered via genetic screening of budding yeast almost 25 years ago. In recent years, more and more functions of SCF (Skp1-Cullin 1-F-box) ligases have been described, and we can expect the number of studies on this ...

Rat liver DNA ligases [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 1992
A novel form of rat liver DNA ligase (molecular mass 100 kDa) can be differentiated from DNA ligase I by several biochemical parameters. It is a more heat‐labile enzyme and unable to join bluntended DNA, even in the presence of poly(ethylene glycol) concentrations which stimulate such joining by DNA ligase I and T4 DNA ligase.

The Inhibitory Effect of Non-Substrate and Substrate DNA on the Ligation and Self-Adenylylation Reactions Catalyzed by T4 DNA Ligase. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
DNA ligases are essential both to in vivo replication, repair and recombination processes, and in vitro molecular biology protocols. Prior characterization of DNA ligases through gel shift assays has shown the presence of a nick site to be essential for ...

Two-tiered enforcement of high-fidelity DNA ligation

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
DNA ligases catalyze the joining of DNA strands to complete DNA replication, recombination and repair transactions. Here the authors present X-ray structures and kinetic analyses of LIG1 complexes with undamaged and oxidatively damaged DNA that unveil ...

BioE3 identifies specific substrates of ubiquitin E3 ligases

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Hundreds of E3 ligases play a critical role in recognizing specific substrates for modification by ubiquitin (Ub). Separating genuine targets of E3s from E3-interactors remains a challenge. We present BioE3, a powerful approach for matching substrates to

Global-genome Nucleotide Excision Repair Controlled by Ubiquitin/Sumo Modifiers

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2016
Global-genome nucleotide excision repair (GG-NER) prevents genome instability by excising a wide range of structurally unrelated DNA base adducts and crosslinks induced by chemical carcinogens, ultraviolet (UV) radiation or intracellular metabolic by ...

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

The Action of DNA Ligase at Abasic Sites in DNA [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1998
Apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) sites occur frequently in DNA as a result of spontaneous base loss or following removal of a damaged base by a DNA glycosylase. The action of many AP endonuclease enzymes at abasic sites in DNA leaves a 5'-deoxyribose phosphate (dRP) residue that must be removed during the base excision repair process.

Hyperosmotic stress induces PARP1‐mediated HPF1‐dependent mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Sorbitol‐induced hyperosmotic stress rapidly induces reversible mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation (MARylation) on PARP1 without the signs of genotoxic signaling. We show that PARP1 autoMARylation is HPF1 dependent and forms hydroxylamine‐resistant O‐glycosidic linkages.

An isoform of 14‐3‐3 protein regulates transbilayer lipid movement at the plasma membrane

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Loss of 14‐3‐3ζ in CHO cells confers resistance to exogenous phosphatidylserine (PS) and impairs endocytosis‐independent inward flip‐flop of fluorescent PS at the plasma membrane. RNAi‐mediated knockdown reproduces this defect, while no additive effect is seen in ATP11C‐deficient cells.
