Structural Diversity of Ubiquitin E3 Ligase [PDF]
The post-translational modification of proteins regulates many biological processes. Their dysfunction relates to diseases. Ubiquitination is one of the post-translational modifications that target lysine residue and regulate many cellular processes ...

Discovery of E3 Ligase Ligands for Target Protein Degradation
Target protein degradation has emerged as a promising strategy for the discovery of novel therapeutics during the last decade. Proteolysis-targeting chimera (PROTAC) harnesses a cellular ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis system for the efficient ...

Differential PROTAC substrate specificity dictated by orientation of recruited E3 ligase
PROTACs enable targeted protein degradation by recruiting an E3 ligase to a specific substrate but the determinants of selectivity are not fully understood.

Activity-based E3 ligase profiling uncovers an E3 ligase with esterification activity [PDF]
Ubiquitination is initiated by transfer of ubiquitin (Ub) from a ubiquitin-activating enzyme (E1) to a ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme (E2), producing a covalently linked intermediate (E2-Ub) 1 . Ubiquitin ligases (E3s) of the 'really interesting new gene' (RING) class recruit E2-Ub via their RING domain and then mediate direct transfer of ubiquitin to ...

Emerging roles of the HECT E3 ubiquitin ligases in gastric cancer
Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most pernicious gastrointestinal tumors with extraordinarily high incidence and mortality. Ubiquitination modification of cellular signaling proteins has been shown to play important roles in GC tumorigenesis ...

A non‐canonical scaffold‐type E3 ligase complex mediates protein UFMylation
Protein UFMylation, i.e., post‐translational modification with ubiquitin‐fold modifier 1 (UFM1), is essential for cellular and endoplasmic reticulum homeostasis.
