Ubiquitin-proteasome system in diabetic retinopathy [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2022
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the most common complication of diabetes, being the most prevalent reason for blindness among the working-age population in the developed world.

The ubiquitin-proteasome system is required for African swine fever replication. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Several viruses manipulate the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) to initiate a productive infection. Determined viral proteins are able to change the host's ubiquitin machinery and some viruses even encode their own ubiquitinating or deubiquitinating ...

Denervation-Induced Activation of the Ubiquitin-Proteasome System Reduces Skeletal Muscle Quantity Not Quality. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
It is well known that the ubiquitin-proteasome system is activated in response to skeletal muscle wasting and functions to degrade contractile proteins. The loss of these proteins inevitably reduces skeletal muscle size (i.e., quantity).

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.

A Conditional Yeast E1 Mutant Blocks the Ubiquitin–Proteasome Pathway and Reveals a Role for Ubiquitin Conjugates in Targeting Rad23 to the Proteasome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
E1 ubiquitin activating enzyme catalyzes the initial step in all ubiquitin-dependent processes. We report the isolation of uba1-204, a temperature-sensitive allele of the essential Saccharomyces cerevisiae E1 gene, UBA1.

Proteasome inhibition-enhanced fracture repair is associated with increased mesenchymal progenitor cells in mice.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
The ubiquitin/proteasome system controls the stability of Runx2 and JunB, proteins essential for differentiation of mesenchymal progenitor/stem cells (MPCs) to osteoblasts.

Dss1 is a 26S proteasome ubiquitin receptor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The ubiquitin-proteasome system is the major pathway for protein degradation in eukaryotic cells. Proteins to be degraded are conjugated to ubiquitin chains that act as recognition signals for the 26S proteasome.

Insulin alleviates degradation of skeletal muscle protein by inhibiting the ubiquitin-proteasome system in septic rats

open access: yesJournal of Inflammation, 2011
Hypercatabolism is common under septic conditions. Skeletal muscle is the main target organ for hypercatabolism, and this phenomenon is a vital factor in the deterioration of recovery in septic patients.

Quantitative Cell-based Protein Degradation Assays to Identify and Classify Drugs That Target the Ubiquitin-Proteasome System [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We have generated a set of dual-reporter human cell lines and devised a chase protocol to quantify proteasomal degradation of a ubiquitin fusion degradation (UFD) substrate, a ubiquitin ligase CRL2^(VHL) substrate, and a ubiquitin-independent substrate ...

Niclosamide prevents the formation of large ubiquitin-containing aggregates caused by proteasome inhibition. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Protein aggregation is a hallmark of many neurodegenerative diseases and has been linked to the failure to degrade misfolded and damaged proteins. In the cell, aberrant proteins are degraded by the ubiquitin proteasome system that mainly targets short ...
