TRAF6 Lactylation in Glycolytic Macrophages Drives NF‐κB Signaling and M1 Polarization During Orthodontic Tooth Movement

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Schematic diagram showing compressive stress triggers glycolytic reprogramming and lactate accumulation in macrophages. Lactate mediates TRAF6 lactylation at K171/K180 dual sites, which enhances its K63‐linked ubiquitination to activate the NF‑κB pathway and promote M1 polarization. This cascade drives orthodontic tooth movement (OTM) and alveolar bone

Indirect ubiquitination independent of endogenous ubiquitination machinery for targeted protein degradation

Communications Chemistry
Heterobifunctional small degrader molecules that hijack endogenous E3 ubiquitin ligases have attracted attention for the rapid and irreversible knock-down of target proteins via ubiquitination.

Targeted Degradation of STING by a Neutrophil Membrane‐Coated Nanoplatform Suppresses Microglial Pyroptosis After Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
MG1@NM‐Px serves as a microglia‐targeted STING‐degrading nanoplatform for subarachnoid hemorrhage. Following systemic administration, it crosses the blood–brain barrier and accumulates in activated microglia. STP1‐mediated STING ubiquitination and degradation suppress MAPK/inflammasome signaling, GSDME‐mediated pyroptosis, and IL‐1β release, revealing ...

Structural visualization of HECT-type E3 ligase Ufd4 accepting and transferring ubiquitin to form K29/K48-branched polyubiquitination

Nature Communications
The K29/K48-linked ubiquitination generated by the cooperative catalysis of E3 ligase Ufd4 and Ubr1 is an enhanced protein degradation signal, in which Ufd4 is responsible for introducing K29-linked ubiquitination to K48-linked ubiquitin chains to ...

Ubiquitination of ACSL4 by Parkin Suppresses Ferroptosis and Rescues Glucocorticoid‐Induced Bone Loss

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
GCs reduce Parkin, leading to ACSL4 accumulation and PUFA‐phospholipid‐driven ferroptosis in BMSCs, which impairs osteogenesis and promotes adipogenesis, causing GIOP. Parkin restoration (via OE‐Parkin or Parkin‐LNP@DSS6) ubiquitinates and degrades ACSL4, inhibiting ferroptosis, rescuing bone formation, and rescues GIOP bone loss.

Microprotein MP104 Promotes Malignant Progression of Colorectal Cancer Through Regulating Protein Translation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A previously unrecognized microprotein, MP104, encoded by ZEB1‐AS1, emerges as a critical driver of colorectal cancer progression. MP104 links ubiquitin‐mediated protein degradation with translational reprogramming via the UBE2O–AMPKα2–mTOR–EIF4B axis, revealing an unrecognized layer of oncogenic regulation.

WDR72 Promotes Neuroblastoma Stemness and Progression by Sequestering TRIM31‐Mediated Degradation of CBX8

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study unveiled that METTL14 mediates m6A modification of WDR72 mRNA to stabilize and enhance WDR72 expression, which disrupts TRIM31‐mediated ubiquitination of CBX8 protein and retards its degradation, finally the elevated CBX8 contributes to tumor stemness.

Targeting E3 Ubiquitin Ligases for Cancer Therapy

Cancer Biology & Therapy, 2003
E3 ubiquitin ligases are a large family of proteins that can be classified into three major structurally distinct types: N-end rule E3s, E3s containing the HECT (Homology to E6AP C-Terminus) domain, and E3s with the RING (Really Interesting New Gene) finger, including its derivatives, the U- Box and the PHD (Plant Homeo-Domain).

The E3 ubiquitin ligase c-IAP1 regulates PCSK9-mediated LDLR degradation: Linking the TNF-α pathway to cholesterol uptake [PDF]

, 2010
Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9), in addition to LDLR (low-density lipoprotein receptor) and APOB (apolipoprotein B), is one of three loci implicated in autosomal dominant hypercholesterolaemia (ADH)^1^.

ZBTB11 Promotes Breast Cancer Progression by Activating FBXO28‐Mediated MST1 Degradation and Suppressing Hippo Signaling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ZBTB11 is identified as an oncogenic transcription factor that activates FBXO28 in breast cancer. FBXO28 promotes K48‐linked ubiquitination and degradation of MST1, suppressing Hippo signaling and enhancing epithelial–mesenchymal transition and metastasis. This transcription‐to‐ubiquitination cascade defines a prognostic biomarker axis and highlights a
