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

Ubiquitylation in immune disorders and cancer: from molecular mechanisms to therapeutic implications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Conjugation of ubiquitin to proteins (ubiquitylation) has emerged to be one of the most crucial post-translational modifications controlling virtually all cellular processes.

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

Thermostable DNA ligases from hyperthermophiles in biotechnology

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
DNA ligase is an important enzyme ubiquitous in all three kingdoms of life that can ligate DNA strands, thus playing essential roles in DNA replication, repair and recombination in vivo.

Ubiquitin-protein ligases [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cell Science, 2004
Post-translational covalent tagging of proteins with the 76-residue protein ubiquitin (Ub) serves many functions. Polyubiquitylated proteins are directed to the large multi-component, multi-catalytic protease the 26S proteasome.

Bacterial DNA ligases [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, 2001
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 ...

DNA Ligase I, the Replicative DNA Ligase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Multiple DNA ligation events are required to join the Okazaki fragments generated during lagging strand DNA synthesis. In eukaryotes, this is primarily carried out by members of the DNA ligase I family. The C-terminal catalytic region of these enzymes is composed of three domains: a DNA binding domain, an adenylation domain and an OB-fold domain.

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 ...

Expanding PROTACtable genome universe of E3 ligases

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Proteolysis-targeting chimera (PROTAC) and other targeted protein degradation (TPD) molecules that induce degradation by the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) offer new opportunities to engage targets that remain challenging to be inhibited by ...

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.
