Structural Insights into E1-Catalyzed Ubiquitin Activation and Transfer to Conjugating Enzymes [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2008
Ubiquitin (Ub) and ubiquitin-like proteins (Ubls) are conjugated to their targets by specific cascades involving three classes of enzymes, E1, E2, and E3. Each E1 adenylates the C terminus of its cognate Ubl, forms a E1 approximately Ubl thioester intermediate, and ultimately generates a thioester-linked E2 approximately Ubl product. We have determined

Discovery of TAK-981, a First-in-Class Inhibitor of SUMO-Activating Enzyme for the Treatment of Cancer.

open access: yesJournal of Medicinal Chemistry, 2021
SUMOylation is a reversible post-translational modification that regulates protein function through covalent attachment of small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) proteins. The process of SUMOylating proteins involves an enzymatic cascade, the first step of

In vitro Ubiquitin Dimer Formation Assay

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2017
The process of protein ubiquitination typically consists of three sequential steps to add an ubiquitin (Ub) or Ub chain to a substrate protein, requiring three different enzymes, ubiquitin activating enzyme (E1), ubiquitin conjugating enzyme (E2), and ...

Ubiquitin enzymes in the regulation of immune responses

open access: yesCritical reviews in biochemistry and molecular biology, 2017
Ubiquitination plays a central role in the regulation of various biological functions including immune responses. Ubiquitination is induced by a cascade of enzymatic reactions by E1 ubiquitin activating enzyme, E2 ubiquitin conjugating enzyme, and E3 ...

"Covalent affinity" purification of ubiquitin-activating enzyme.

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1982
We have previously described an enzyme that activates ubiquitin, the heat-stable polypeptide of the ATP-dependent proteolytic system from reticulocytes (Ciechanover, A., Heller, H., Katz-Etzion, R., and Hershko, A. (1981) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 78, 761-765). It carries out ubiquitin-dependent PPi-ATP and AMP-ATP exchange reactions and binds to

Emerging role of UFMylation in secretory cells involved in the endocrine system by maintaining ER proteostasis

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
Ubiquitin-fold modifier 1 (UFM1) is a ubiquitin-like molecule (UBL) discovered almost two decades ago, but our knowledge about the cellular and molecular mechanisms of this novel protein post-translational modification is still very fragmentary.

Insights in Post-Translational Modifications: Ubiquitin and SUMO

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022
Both ubiquitination and SUMOylation are dynamic post-translational modifications that regulate thousands of target proteins to control virtually every cellular process.

Mathematical model for the ubiquitin activating enzyme E1

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Science and Engineering, 2010
The ubiquitin-activating enzyme E1 (EC 6.3.2.19) represents the first step in the degradation of proteins by the ubiquitin proteasome pathway. E1 transfers ubiquitin from the ubiquitinated E1 to the ubiquitin carrier proteins (E2), ubiquitin-protein ligases (E3) and proteins. This process is rather complex, and known from the work of Haas, Ciechanover,

HyperISGylation of Old World monkey ISG15 in human cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2008
BACKGROUND: ISG15 is an Ubiquitin-like protein, highly induced by Type I Interferons. Upon the cooperative activity of specific Ubiquitinating enzymes, ISG15 can be conjugated to its substrates. Increasing evidence points to a role for protein ISGylation
