Summary: Ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like chains are finely balanced by conjugating and de-conjugating enzymes. Alterations in this balance trigger the response to stress conditions and are often observed in pathologies.

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

TULIP2: An Improved Method for the Identification of Ubiquitin E3-Specific Targets
Protein modification by Ubiquitin or Ubiquitin-like modifiers is mediated by an enzyme cascade composed of E1, E2, and E3 enzymes. E1s, or ubiquitin-activating enzymes, perform ubiquitin activation. Next, ubiquitin is transferred to ubiquitin-conjugating

The HIP2~ubiquitin conjugate forms a non-compact monomeric thioester during di-ubiquitin synthesis. [PDF]
Polyubiquitination is a post-translational event used to control the degradation of damaged or unwanted proteins by modifying the target protein with a chain of ubiquitin molecules.

Structural Diversity of Ubiquitin E3 Ligase
The post-translational modification of proteins regulates many biological processes. Their dysfunction relates to diseases. Ubiquitination is one of the post-translational modifications that target lysine residue and regulate many cellular processes ...

Crystal structure of UBA2ufd-Ubc9: insights into E1-E2 interactions in sumo pathways [PDF]
Canonical ubiquitin-like proteins (UBLs) such as ubiquitin, Sumo, NEDD8, and ISG15 are ligated to targets by E1-E2-E3 multienzyme cascades. The Sumo cascade, conserved among all eukaryotes, regulates numerous biological processes including protein ...

UBE2G1 governs the destruction of cereblon neomorphic substrates
The cereblon modulating agents (CMs) including lenalidomide, pomalidomide and CC-220 repurpose the Cul4-RBX1-DDB1-CRBN (CRL4CRBN) E3 ubiquitin ligase complex to induce the degradation of specific neomorphic substrates via polyubiquitination in ...

Pleiotropic Roles of a KEAP1-Associated Deubiquitinase, OTUD1
Protein ubiquitination, which is catalyzed by ubiquitin-activating enzymes, ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes, and ubiquitin ligases, is a crucial post-translational modification to regulate numerous cellular functions in a spatio–temporal-specific manner ...

Contributions of ubiquitin- and PCNA-binding domains to the activity of Polymerase η in Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]
Bypassing of DNA lesions by damage-tolerant DNA polymerases depends on the interaction of these enzymes with the monoubiquitylated form of the replicative clamp protein, PCNA.

Determinants of Functionality in the Ubiquitin Conjugating Enzyme Family [PDF]
The E2 enzymes are key enzymes in the ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like protein ligation pathways. To understand the functionality of the different E2 enzymes, we analyzed 190 protein sequences and 211 structures and electrostatic potentials. Key findings include: The ScUbc1 orthologs are defined by a C-terminal UBA domain. An N-terminal sequence motif that
