CTLs, a new class of RING-H2 ubiquitin ligases uncovered by YEELL, a motif close to the RING domain that is present across eukaryotes. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
RING ubiquitin E3 ligases enclose a RING domain for ubiquitin ligase activity and associated domains and/or conserved motifs outside the RING domain that collectively facilitate their classification and usually reveal some of key information related to ...

Obscurin and KCTD6 regulate cullin-dependent small ankyrin-1 (sAnk1.5) protein turnover. [PDF]

, 2012
Protein turnover through cullin-3 is tightly regulated by posttranslational modifications, the COP9 signalosome, and BTB/POZ-domain proteins that link cullin-3 to specific substrates for ubiquitylation.

Nanotherapies for Atherosclerosis: Targeting, Catalysis, and Energy Transduction

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Atherosclerosis management is hindered by poor drug targeting and plaque heterogeneity. Nanotechnology overcomes these barriers via three core strategies: (1) target‐engineered nanocarriers that achieve lesion‐specific precision via ligand modification, biomimetic camouflage, stimuli‐responsive release, and self‐propelling nanomotors; (2) catalytic ...

TRIM47 Regulates Energy Metabolism via Glycolytic Reprogramming to Drive Hepatocellular Carcinoma Progression and Represents an Efficient Therapeutic Target

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies TRIM47 as a key driver of liver cancer progression by promoting glycolysis through ubiquitin‐mediated degradation of the gluconeogenic enzyme FBP1. TRIM47 enhances glucose uptake, lactate and ATP production, and tumor growth and metastasis.

Biochemical and Genetic Studies of UBR3, a Ubiquitin Ligase with a Function in Olfactory and Other Sensory Systems [PDF]

, 2007
Our previous work identified E3 ubiquitin ligases, termed UBR1-UBR7, that contain the ~70-residue UBR box, a motif important for the targeting of N-end rule substrates.

Strawberry Notch 1 Acts as a Transcriptional Regulator Driving Oncogenic Programs in Liver Carcinogenesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reports that SBNO1 protein is upregulated in several cancer entities. SBNO1 protein interacts with the basal transcription factor TFIID via TAF4, enabling its recruitment to transcription start sites and the modulation of target gene expression.

Role and therapeutic potential of E3s in the tumor microenvironment of hepatocellular carcinoma

Frontiers in Immunology
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a high-incidence, poor-prognosis malignancy worldwide, requiring new strategies for treatment. Ubiquitination, especially ubiquitination through E3 ubiquitin ligases, plays an indispensable role in the development and ...

Parkin-independent mitophagy controls chemotherapeutic response in cancer cells [PDF]

, 2017
Mitophagy is an evolutionarily conserved process that selectively targets impaired mitochondria for degradation. Defects in mitophagy are often associated with diverse pathologies, including cancer.

Attenuation of Influenza a Virus into Live Vaccines Through C‐End Degrons

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Naturally occurring C‐end degrons are exploited to design proteolysis‐targeting live attenuated influenza vaccines. C‐end degron tagging of viral M1 protein promotes proteasome‐dependent degradation, resulting in robust attenuation in host cells while permitting scalable production in engineered cells.
