Comprehensive analysis of the expression and prognosis for RBR E3 ubiquitin ligases in lung adenocarcinoma

open access: yesThoracic Cancer, 2022
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

Targeted Degradation of 53BP1 Using Ubiquitin Variant Induced Proximity

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
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 ...

Classification of barley U-box E3 ligases and their expression patterns in response to drought and pathogen stresses

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2019
Background Controlled turnover of proteins as mediated by the ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS) is an important element in plant defense against environmental and pathogen stresses.

Structural basis for Cul3 protein assembly with the BTB-Kelch family of E3 ubiquitin ligases. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Cullin-RING ligases are multisubunit E3 ubiquitin ligases that recruit substrate-specific adaptors to catalyze protein ubiquitylation. Cul3-based Cullin-RING ligases are uniquely associated with BTB adaptors that incorporate homodimerization, Cul3 ...

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.

SUMO chain-induced dimerization activates RNF4 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Dimeric RING E3 ligases interact with protein substrates and conformationally restrain the ubiquitin-E2-conjugating enzyme thioester complex such that it is primed for catalysis.

Structure of the Human FANCL RING-Ube2T Complex Reveals Determinants of Cognate E3-E2 Selection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The combination of an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme with an E3 ubiquitin-ligase is essential for ubiquitin modification of a substrate. Moreover, the pairing dictates both the substrate choice and the modification type. The molecular details of generic

E3-ligase knock down revealed differential titin degradation by autopagy and the ubiquitin proteasome system

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The sarcomere protein titin is a major determinant of cardiomyocyte stiffness and ventricular distensibility. The constant mechanical stress on titin requires well-controlled protein quality control, the exact mechanisms of which have not yet been fully ...

Progress on Poxvirus E3 Ubiquitin Ligases and Adaptor Proteins

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Poxviruses have evolved a variety of innate immunity evasion mechanisms, some of which involve poxvirus-encoded E3 ubiquitin ligases and adaptor proteins.

Functional Diversity and Structural Disorder in the Human Ubiquitination Pathway [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The ubiquitin-proteasome system plays a central role in cellular regulation and protein quality control (PQC). The system is built as a pyramid of increasing complexity, with two E1 (ubiquitin activating), few dozen E2 (ubiquitin conjugating) and several
