Background Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the most common subtype of non‐small cell lung cancer and has a poor prognosis. RBR E3 ubiquitin ligases are a special class of E3 ubiquitin ligases which contain three zinc‐bing domains that catalyze ubiquitin to

The Role of E3 Ligase Pirh2 in Disease
The p53-dependent ubiquitin ligase Pirh2 regulates a number of proteins involved in different cancer-associated processes. Targeting the p53 family proteins, Chk2, p27Kip1, Twist1 and others, Pirh2 participates in such cellular processes as proliferation, cell cycle regulation, apoptosis and cellular migration.

Targeted Degradation of 53BP1 Using Ubiquitin Variant Induced Proximity
In recent years, researchers have leveraged the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) to induce selective degradation of proteins by E3 ubiquitin ligases, which has great potential as novel therapeutics for human diseases, including cancer and ...

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.

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

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

AIRE Functions As an E3 Ubiquitin Ligase [PDF]
Autoimmune regulator (AIRE) gene mutation is responsible for the development of autoimmune-polyendocrinopathy-candidiasis ectodermal dystrophy, an organ-specific autoimmune disease with monogenic autosomal recessive inheritance. AIRE is predominantly expressed in medullary epithelial cells of the thymus and is considered to play important roles in the ...
