E3 Ubiquitin Ligases as Cancer Targets and Biomarkers
E3 ubiquitin ligases are a large family of proteins that are engaged in the regulation of the turnover and activity of many target proteins. Together with ubiquitinactivating enzyme El and ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2, E3 ubiquitin ligases catalyze ...

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.

DNA ligases join breaks in the phosphodiester backbone of DNA molecules and are used in many essential reactions within the cell. All DNA ligases follow the same reaction mechanism, but they may use either ATP or NAD+ as a cofactor. All Bacteria (eubacteria) contain NAD+‐dependent DNA ligases, and the uniqueness of these enzymes to Bacteria makes them ...

Ubiquitination mediated by RING-type E3 ligases in the progression of digestive system tumors: mechanistic insights and potential therapeutic strategies [PDF]
Ubiquitination is a core mechanism for the precise regulation of protein fate, closely related to the occurrence and development of many diseases. As the most critical enzymes in the ubiquitination process, really interesting new gene (RING)-type E3 ...

Ubiquitin ligases and beyond [PDF]
In a review published in 2004 [1] and that still repays reading today, Cecile Pickart traced the evolution of research on ubiquitination from its origins in the proteasomal degradation of proteins through the revelation that it has a central role in cell cycle regulation and the recognition of regulatory roles for ubiquitin in intracellular membrane ...

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.

HERC Ubiquitin Ligases in Cancer [PDF]
HERC proteins are ubiquitin E3 ligases of the HECT family. The HERC subfamily is composed of six members classified by size into large (HERC1 and HERC2) and small (HERC3–HERC6). HERC family ubiquitin ligases regulate important cellular processes, such as neurodevelopment, DNA damage response, cell proliferation, cell migration, and immune responses ...
