Emerging roles of the HECT E3 ubiquitin ligases in gastric cancer
Pathology and Oncology Research, 2023 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 ...

PROTACs: A novel strategy for cancer drug discovery and development
MedComm, 2023 Proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) technology has become a powerful strategy in drug discovery, especially for undruggable targets/proteins. A typical PROTAC degrader consists of three components: a small molecule that binds to a target protein, an ...

The EHEC type III effector NleL is an E3 ubiquitin ligase that modulates pedestal formation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157:H7 causes hemorrhagic colitis and may result in potentially fatal hemolytic uremia syndrome in humans. EHEC colonize the intestinal mucosa and promote the formation of actin-rich pedestals via translocated ...

MDM2 E3 ligase activity is essential for p53 regulation and cell cycle integrity.
PLoS Genetics, 2022 MDM2 and MDM4 are key regulators of p53 and function as oncogenes when aberrantly expressed. MDM2 and MDM4 partner to suppress p53 transcriptional transactivation and polyubiquitinate p53 for degradation.

A Comprehensive Atlas of E3 Ubiquitin Ligase Mutations in Neurological Disorders
Frontiers in Genetics, 2018 Protein ubiquitination is a posttranslational modification that plays an integral part in mediating diverse cellular functions. The process of protein ubiquitination requires an enzymatic cascade that consists of a ubiquitin activating enzyme (E1 ...
