Inhibition of the Ubiquitin-Activating Enzyme UBA1 Suppresses Diet-Induced Atherosclerosis in Apolipoprotein E-Knockout Mice

open access: yesJournal of Immunology Research, 2020
Background. Ubiquitin-like modifier activating enzyme 1 (UBA1) is the first and major E1 activating enzyme in ubiquitin activation, the initial step of the ubiquitin-proteasome system.

Somatic Mutations in UBA1 and Severe Adult-Onset Autoinflammatory Disease [PDF]

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2020
Adult-onset inflammatory syndromes often manifest with overlapping clinical features. Variants in ubiquitin-related genes, previously implicated in autoinflammatory disease, may define new disorders.We analyzed peripheral-blood exome sequence data independent of clinical phenotype and inheritance pattern to identify deleterious mutations in ubiquitin ...

A Pathogenic Missense Variant (c.1617G>A, p.Met539Ile) in UBA1 Causing Infantile X-Linked Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMAX2)

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics, 2020
Background: Infantile X-linked spinal muscular atrophy (SMAX2) is a rare type of spinal muscular atrophy associated with UBA1 variants.Methods: Clinical imaging and neurophysiological tests were performed on a Chinese patient with SMAX2. Further, focused

Recruitment of ubiquitin-activating enzyme UBA1 to DNA by poly(ADP-ribose) promotes ATR signalling

open access: yesLife Science Alliance, 2018
Human but not yeast UBA1 binds poly(ADP-ribose) polymers via a solvent-exposed and positively charged patch. Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1–dependent recruitment of UBA1 to DNA ensures ataxia-telangiectasia and RAD3-related activation.

Exome sequencing can misread high variant allele fraction of somatic variants in UBA1 as hemizygous in VEXAS syndrome: a case report

open access: yesBMC Rheumatology, 2022
Background VEXAS syndrome (vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, autoinflammatory, somatic syndrome) is a recently described syndrome caused by a somatic missense variant at the methionine-41 (p.(Met41)) position in the ubiquitin-like modifier activating enzyme

Synergistic recruitment of UbcH7~Ub and phosphorylated Ubl domain triggers parkin activation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The E3 ligase parkin ubiquitinates outer mitochondrial membrane proteins during oxidative stress and is linked to early-onset Parkinson’s disease. Parkin is autoinhibited but is activated by the kinase PINK1 that phosphorylates ubiquitin leading to ...

A Molecular Basis for Stabilization of the von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) Tumor Suppressor Protein by Components of the VHL Ubiquitin Ligase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The multiprotein von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) tumor suppressor (CBCVHL, Cul2-Elongin BC-VHL) and SCF (Skp1-Cul1/Cdc53-F-box protein) complexes are members of structurally related families of E3 ubiquitin ligases that use a heterodimeric module composed of a ...

VEXAS syndrome with cutaneous nodules

open access: yesDermatology Reports, 2021
Recently, a rare severe autoinflammatory Vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, autoinflammatory, Somatic (VEXAS) syndrome caused by somatic variants in the UBA1 gene was discovered.

RETRACTED ARTICLE: GRP78 determines glioblastoma sensitivity to UBA1 inhibition-induced UPR signaling and cell death

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2021
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is an extremely aggressive brain tumor for which new therapeutic approaches are urgently required. Unfolded protein response (UPR) plays an important role in the progression of GBM and is a promising target for developing ...

A general strategy for discovery of inhibitors and activators of RING and U-box E3 ligases with ubiquitin variants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
RING and U-box E3 ubiquitin ligases regulate diverse eukaryotic processes and have been implicated in numerous diseases, but targeting these enzymes remains a major challenge.
