Identification of a novel motif in DNA ligases exemplified by DNA ligase IV [PDF]
DNA ligase IV is an essential protein that functions in DNA non-homologous end-joining, the major mechanism that rejoins DNA double-strand breaks in mammalian cells. LIG4 syndrome represents a human disorder caused by mutations in DNA ligase IV that lead

From Drosophila to Human: Biological Function of E3 Ligase Godzilla and Its Role in Disease
The ubiquitin–proteasome system is of fundamental importance in all fields of biology due to its impact on proteostasis and in regulating cellular processes.

DNA ligases are used chiefly to create novel combinations of nucleic acid molecules and to attach them to vectors before molecular cloning. They are either of bacterial origin or bacteriophage encoded and have different properties, as discussed here.

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 ...

The involvement of E3 ubiquitin ligases in the development and progression of colorectal cancer
To date, colorectal cancer (CRC) still has limited therapeutic efficacy and poor prognosis and there is an urgent need for novel targets to improve the outcome of CRC patients.

Thermostable DNA ligases from hyperthermophiles in biotechnology
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.

The role of E3 ubiquitin ligases and deubiquitinases in bladder cancer development and immunotherapy
Bladder cancer is one of the common malignant urothelial tumors. Post-translational modification (PTMs), including ubiquitination, acetylation, methylation, and phosphorylation, have been revealed to participate in bladder cancer initiation and ...

Ubiquitylation in immune disorders and cancer: from molecular mechanisms to therapeutic implications [PDF]
Conjugation of ubiquitin to proteins (ubiquitylation) has emerged to be one of the most crucial post-translational modifications controlling virtually all cellular processes.
