E3 ubiquitin ligases

Essays in Biochemistry, 2005
The selectivity of the ubiquitin–26 S proteasome system (UPS) for a particular substrate protein relies on the interaction between a ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme (E2, of which a cell contains relatively few) and a ubiquitin–protein ligase (E3, of which there are possibly hundreds).

RBR E3 ubiquitin ligases in tumorigenesis

Seminars in Cancer Biology, 2020
RING-in-between-RING (RBR) E3 ligases are one class of E3 ligases that is characterized by the unique RING-HECT hybrid mechanism to function with E2s to transfer ubiquitin to target proteins for degradation. Emerging evidence has demonstrated that RBR E3 ligases play essential roles in neurodegenerative diseases, infection, inflammation and cancer ...

The Role of Ubiquitin E3 Ligase in Atherosclerosis

Current Medicinal Chemistry, 2020
Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory vascular disease. Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease is the main cause of death in both developed and developing countries. Many pathophysiological factors, including abnormal cholesterol metabolism, vascular inflammatory response, endothelial dysfunction and vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation and ...

Ubiquitin E3 ligase FIEL1 regulates fibrotic lung injury through SUMO-E3 ligase PIAS4 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Medicine, 2016
The E3 small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) protein ligase protein inhibitor of activated STAT 4 (PIAS4) is a pivotal protein in regulating the TGFβ pathway. In this study, we discovered a new protein isoform encoded by KIAA0317, termed fibrosis-inducing E3 ligase 1 (FIEL1), which potently stimulates the TGFβ signaling pathway through the site-specific

E3 ubiquitin ligases for MHC molecules

Current Opinion in Immunology, 2009
Recently, novel E3 ubiquitin ligases that target MHC molecules for lysosomal degradation have been discovered by several groups. All these E3s are membrane-bound and possess a variant type RING domain, termed the RING-CH or RING variant (RINGv) domain. They belong to a new E3 family designated Modulator of Immune Recognition (MIR), based on the name of

Dueling E3 Ligases

Science's STKE, 2004
Protein degradation plays a key role in progression through the cell cycle. The anaphase-promoting complex (APC) is best known for its role as an E3 ubiquitin ligase that contributes to the degradation of proteins that allow exit from mitosis.

The HECT family of E3 ubiquitin ligases and PTEN

Seminars in Cancer Biology, 2022
Members of the HECT family of E3 ubiquitin ligases have emerged as prominent regulators of PTEN function, subcellular localization and levels. In turn this unfolding regulatory network is allowing for the identification of genes directly involved in both tumorigenesis at large and cancer susceptibility syndromes. While the complexity of this regulatory

Autoantigen Ro52 is an E3 ubiquitin ligase

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2006
Anti-Ro/SSA antibodies are classic autoantibodies commonly found in patients with Sjögren's syndrome, a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by dryness of the eyes and mouth. The autoantibodies recognize a RING-finger protein, Ro52, whose function is still unknown.

HECT-Type E3 Ubiquitin Ligases in Cancer

Trends in Biochemical Sciences, 2019
Ubiquitination, a post-translational modification that involves a covalent attachment of ubiquitin to a protein substrate, is essential for cellular homeostatic maintenance. At the end of a three-enzyme cascade, E3 ubiquitin ligases (E3s) recruit substrates and promote or directly catalyze ubiquitin transfer to targets.
