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 ...

Erythrocyte Spectrin Is an E2 Ubiquitin Conjugating Enzyme
The involvement of red blood cell spectrin in the ubiquitination process was studied. Spectrin was found to form two ubiquitin-associated derivatives, a DTT-sensitive ubiquitin adduct and a DTT-insensitive conjugate, characteristic intermediate and final products of the ubiquitination reaction cascade.

Huntingtin Is Ubiquitinated and Interacts with a Specific Ubiquitin-conjugating Enzyme [PDF]
Using the yeast two-hybrid system, we have identified a human ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme (hE2-25K) as a protein that interacts with the gene product for Huntington disease (HD) (Huntingtin). This protein has complete amino acid identity with the bovine E2-25K protein and has striking similarity to the UBC-1, -4 and -5 enzymes of Saccharomyces ...

Poxvirus Interactions with the Host Ubiquitin System
The ubiquitin system has emerged as a master regulator of many, if not all, cellular functions. With its large repertoire of conjugating and ligating enzymes, the ubiquitin system holds a unique mechanism to provide selectivity and specificity in ...

Mechanisms of Generating Polyubiquitin Chains of Different Topology
Ubiquitination is an important post-translational process involving attachment of the ubiquitin molecule to lysine residue/s on a substrate protein or on another ubiquitin molecule, leading to the formation of protein mono-, multi- or polyubiquitination.

Interplay between the Ubiquitin Proteasome System and Ubiquitin-Mediated Autophagy in Plants
All eukaryotes rely on the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) and autophagy to control the abundance of key regulatory proteins and maintain a healthy intracellular environment. In the UPS, damaged or superfluous proteins are ubiquitinated and degraded in

A Yeast-Based Functional Assay to Study Plant N-Degron – N-Recognin Interactions
The N-degron pathway is a branch of the ubiquitin-proteasome system where amino-terminal residues serve as degradation signals. In a synthetic biology approach, we expressed ubiquitin ligase PRT6 and ubiquitin conjugating enzyme 2 (AtUBC2) from ...

Sequence of a Cloned Tomato Ubiquitin Conjugating Enzyme
Ubiquitin is a small, abundant protein that is seemingly present in a11 eukaryotic cells and that is covalently ligated to specific protein substrates via an ATP-dependent reaction. This ubiquitinous has been demonstrated to target proteins for subsequent cellular degradation.
