The ubiquitin‐proteasome system and autophagy as guardians of the cellular proteome

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This Perspective covers the three principles governing the crosstalk between the ubiquitin‐proteasome system and autophagy in cellular proteostasis: (1) a shared ubiquitin code routing substrates via shuttle factors or autophagy receptors; (2) spatial compartmentalization into phase‐separated degradation hubs and organelle‐specific modules (exemplified

Real estate in the DNA damage response: Ubiquitin and SUMO ligases home in on DNA double-strand breaks

Frontiers in Genetics, 2016
Ubiquitin and the ubiquitin-like modifier SUMO are intimately connected with the cellular response to various types of DNA damage. A striking feature is the local accumulation of these proteinaceous post-translational modifications in the direct vicinity

The DNA binding domain and the C-terminal region of DNA Ligase IV specify its role in V(D)J recombination.

PLoS ONE, 2023
DNA Ligase IV is responsible for the repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSB), including DSBs that are generated during V(D)J recombination. Like other DNA ligases, Ligase IV contains a catalytic core with three subdomains-the DNA binding (DBD), the ...

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

RNAi-Based Suppressor Screens Reveal Genetic Interactions Between the CRL2LRR-1 E3-Ligase and the DNA Replication Machinery in Caenorhabditis elegans

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2016
Cullin-RING E3-Ligases (CRLs), the largest family of E3 ubiquitin-Ligases, regulate diverse cellular processes by promoting ubiquitination of target proteins.

Phosphoinositides and inositol phosphates as molecular glues

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Inositol phosphates (IPs) and phosphoinositides (PIPs) regulate diverse eukaryotic processes. Beyond recruiting signaling proteins or acting as structural cofactors, recent studies suggest they mediate protein–protein interactions as natural molecular glues.

Multifaceted roles of SUMO in DNA metabolism

Nucleus
Sumoylation, a process in which SUMO (small ubiquitin like modifier) is conjugated to target proteins, emerges as a post-translational modification that mediates protein−protein interactions, protein complex assembly, and localization of target proteins.

Cullin 3 as a novel target in diverse pathologies

Redox Biology, 2013
Recent evidence suggests that the malfunctioning disposal system of cell protein called ubiquitin–proteasome system (UPS) plays an important role in the development of disorders, including cancer and neurodegenerative diseases.

Structural insights into Cullin4-RING ubiquitin ligase remodelling by Vpr from simian immunodeficiency viruses.

PLoS Pathogens, 2021
Viruses have evolved means to manipulate the host's ubiquitin-proteasome system, in order to down-regulate antiviral host factors. The Vpx/Vpr family of lentiviral accessory proteins usurp the substrate receptor DCAF1 of host Cullin4-RING ligases (CRL4),

Three phosphatase families form a community: The phosphohydrolases that act upon inositol pyrophosphates

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.
