E3-ubiquitin ligases and recent progress in osteoimmunology
Frontiers in Immunology, 2023 Ubiquitin-mediated proteasomal degradation is a post-transcriptional protein modification that is comprised of various components including the 76-amino acid protein ubiquitin (Ub), Ub-activating enzyme (E1), Ub-conjugating enzyme (E2), ubiquitin ligase (

Solution Structure of the Ubiquitin-conjugating Enzyme UbcH5B [PDF]
Journal of Molecular Biology, 2004 The ubiquitination pathway is the main pathway for protein degradation in eukaryotic cells. The attachment of ubiquitin to a substrate protein is catalyzed by three types of enzymes, namely a ubiquitin activating enzyme (E1), a ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme (E2), and a ubiquitin ligase (E3). Here, the structure of the human ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme (

RNF8/UBC13 ubiquitin signaling suppresses synapse formation in the mammalian brain
Nature Communications, 2017 Ubiquitin ligases play critical roles in neuronal connectivity in the brain. Here, Valnegri and colleagues show that ubiquitin ligase RNF8 and ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme UBC13 regulate synapse number in cerebellar granule neurons and rodent cerebellar ...

The role of E3 ubiquitin ligases and deubiquitinases in bladder cancer development and immunotherapy
Frontiers in Immunology, 2023 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 ...

In vitro Protein Ubiquitination Assays
Bio-Protocol, 2013 Ubiquitin can be added to substrate protein as a protein tag by the concerted actions of ubiquitin activating enzyme (E1), ubiquitin conjugating enzyme (E2) and ubiquitin protein ligase (E3).

Ubiquitin conjugating enzymes participate in polyglutamine protein aggregation [PDF]
BMC Cell Biology, 2007 Abstract Background Protein aggregation is a hallmark of several neurodegenerative diseases including Huntington's disease and Parkinson's disease. Proteins containing long, homopolymeric stretches of glutamine are especially prone to form aggregates.

Loss of the ubiquitin conjugating enzyme UBE2E3 induces cellular senescence
Redox Biology, 2018 Cellular senescence plays essential roles in tissue homeostasis as well as a host of diseases ranging from cancers to age-related neurodegeneration. Various molecular pathways can induce senescence and these different pathways dictate the phenotypic and ...

E3 ubiquitin ligases: styles, structures and functions
Molecular Biomedicine, 2021 E3 ubiquitin ligases are a large family of enzymes that join in a three-enzyme ubiquitination cascade together with ubiquitin activating enzyme E1 and ubiquitin conjugating enzyme E2.
