Ubiquitylation in immune disorders and cancer: from molecular mechanisms to therapeutic implications [PDF]
, 2012 Conjugation of ubiquitin to proteins (ubiquitylation) has emerged to be one of the most crucial post-translational modifications controlling virtually all cellular processes.

Thermostable DNA ligases from hyperthermophiles in biotechnology
Frontiers 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]
Journal 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.

Molecular 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]
, 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.

Expanding PROTACtable genome universe of E3 ligases
Nature 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 ...

The role of Schizosaccharomyces pombe SUMO ligases in genome stability [PDF]
, 2007 SUMOylation is a post-translational modification that affects a large number of proteins, many of which are nuclear. While the role of SUMOylation is beginning to be elucidated, it is clear that understanding the mechanisms that regulate the process is ...

Identification of a novel motif in DNA ligases exemplified by DNA ligase IV [PDF]
, 2006 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
