RNF12 X-linked intellectual disability mutations disrupt E3 ligase activity and neural differentiation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Summary: X-linked intellectual disability (XLID) is a heterogeneous syndrome affecting mainly males. Human genetics has identified >100 XLID genes, although the molecular and developmental mechanisms underpinning this disorder remain unclear.

A general strategy for discovery of inhibitors and activators of RING and U-box E3 ligases with ubiquitin variants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
RING and U-box E3 ubiquitin ligases regulate diverse eukaryotic processes and have been implicated in numerous diseases, but targeting these enzymes remains a major challenge.

Pto kinase binds two domains of AvrPtoB and its proximity to the effector E3 ligase determines if it evades degradation and activates plant immunity. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2014
The tomato--Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pst)--pathosystem is one of the best understood models for plant-pathogen interactions. Certain wild relatives of tomato express two closely related members of the same kinase family, Pto and Fen, which ...

RBR E3 ubiquitin ligases: new structures, new insights, new questions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The RBR (RING-BetweenRING-RING) or TRIAD [two RING fingers and a DRIL (double RING finger linked)] E3 ubiquitin ligases comprise a group of 12 complex multidomain enzymes.

Inhibitors of ubiquitin E3 ligase as potential new antimalarial drug leads

open access: yesBMC Pharmacology and Toxicology, 2017
Background Protein ubiquitylation is an important post-translational regulation, which has been shown to be necessary for life cycle progression and survival of Plasmodium falciparum.

Biochemical characterization of TRIM72 E3 ligase and its interaction with the insulin receptor substrate 1

open access: yesBiochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2020
TRIM family of E3 ubiquitin ligases have an amino-terminal conserved tripartite motif consisting of RING, B-Box, coiled-coil domain and different C-terminal domain leading it to classification into 11 subclasses.

An ORFeome of rice E3 ubiquitin ligases for global analysis of the ubiquitination interactome

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2022
Background Ubiquitination is essential for many cellular processes in eukaryotes, including 26S proteasome-dependent protein degradation, cell cycle progression, transcriptional regulation, and signal transduction.

IAPs as E3 ligases of Rac1 : shaping the move [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Inhibitors of Apoptosis Proteins (IAPs) are well-studied E3 ubiquitin ligases predominantly known for regulation of apoptosis. We uncovered that IAPs can function as a direct E3 ubiquitin ligase of RhoGTPase Rac1.

Cryo-EM structures of Gid12-bound GID E3 reveal steric blockade as a mechanism inhibiting substrate ubiquitylation

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
The GID E3 ligase regulates glucose-induced degradation in yeast, and key physiology. This study unveils E3 ligase regulation by reshaping the substrate binding site, blocking substrate access to ubiquitination active sites, and a Cage-like assembly.

Exploration of Aberrant E3 Ligases Implicated in Alzheimer’s Disease and Development of Chemical Tools to Modulate Their Function

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2021
The Ubiquitin Proteasome System (UPS) is responsible for the degradation of misfolded or aggregated proteins via a multistep ATP-dependent proteolytic mechanism. This process involves a cascade of ubiquitin (Ub) transfer steps from E1 to E2 to E3 ligase.
