Background Ubiquitin ligases (E3) are the enzymes in the ubiquitin/26S proteasome pathway responsible for targeting proteins to the degradation pathway and play major roles in multiple biological activities. However, the E3 family and their functions are

Regulation of reactive oxygen species during plant immunity through phosphorylation and ubiquitination of RBOHD. [PDF]
Production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is critical for successful activation of immune responses against pathogen infection. The plant NADPH oxidase RBOHD is a primary player in ROS production during innate immunity. However, how RBOHD is negatively

Trim25 restricts rabies virus replication by destabilizing phosphoprotein
Tripartite motif-containing protein 25 (Trim25) is an E3 ubiquitin ligase that activates retinoid acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I) and promotes the antiviral interferon response.

Structural analysis of MDM2 RING separates degradation from regulation of p53 transcription activity [PDF]
MDM2–MDMX complexes bind the p53 tumor-suppressor protein, inhibiting p53's transcriptional activity and targeting p53 for proteasomal degradation. Inhibitors that disrupt binding between p53 and MDM2 efficiently activate a p53 response, but their use in

Protein stability modulation by E3 ubiquitin ligases is an important layer of functional regulation, but screening for E3 ligase-substrate interactions is time-consuming and costly.

Roles of the TRAF6 and Pellino E3 ligases in MyD88 and RANKL signaling [PDF]
It is widely accepted that the essential role of TRAF6 in vivo is to generate the Lys63-linked ubiquitin (K63-Ub) chains needed to activate the "master" protein kinase TAK1.

Lafora disease offers a unique window into neuronal glycogen metabolism [PDF]
Lafora disease (LD) is a fatal, autosomal recessive, glycogen-storage disorder that manifests as severe epilepsy. LD results from mutations in the gene encoding either the glycogen phosphatase laforin or the E3 ubiquitin ligase malin. Individuals with LD

Ubiquitylation in immune disorders and cancer: from molecular mechanisms to therapeutic implications [PDF]
Conjugation of ubiquitin to proteins (ubiquitylation) has emerged to be one of the most crucial post-translational modifications controlling virtually all cellular processes.

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.

Pruning that selectively eliminates unnecessary axons/dendrites is crucial for sculpting the nervous system during development. During Drosophila metamorphosis, dendrite arborization neurons, ddaCs, selectively prune their larval dendrites in response to
