E3 ubiquitin ligases: styles, structures and functions
E3 ubiquitin ligases are a large family of enzymes that join in a three-enzyme ubiquitination cascade together with ubiquitin activating enzyme E1 and ubiquitin conjugating enzyme E2.

E3 ubiquitin ligases: structural diversity, dysregulation in disease, and their emerging role in targeted therapeutic strategies [PDF]
The Ubiquitin-Proteasome System (UPS) is a key mechanism of cellular homeostasis. A central part of this mechanism is E3 ubiquitin ligases, which selectively direct proteins to be ubiquitinated for degradation via the UPS.
