Intracellular Dynamics of the Ubiquitin-Proteasome-System [version 2; referees: 3 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2015
The ubiquitin-proteasome system is the major degradation pathway for short-lived proteins in eukaryotic cells. Targets of the ubiquitin-proteasome-system are proteins regulating a broad range of cellular processes including cell cycle progression, gene ...

Pathophysiological mechanisms of statin‐associated myopathies: possible role of the ubiquitin‐proteasome system

open access: yesJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, 2020
Background Statins are the cornerstone of pharmacotherapy for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. While these drugs are generally safe, treatment adherence is not optimal in a considerable proportion of patients because of the adverse effects on ...

Control of mitochondrial biogenesis and function by the ubiquitin–proteasome system [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2017
Mitochondria are pivotal organelles in eukaryotic cells. The complex proteome of mitochondria comprises proteins that are encoded by nuclear and mitochondrial genomes. The biogenesis of mitochondrial proteins requires their transport in an unfolded state

Poxvirus Exploitation of the Ubiquitin-Proteasome System

open access: yesViruses, 2010
Ubiquitination plays a critical role in many cellular processes. A growing number of viruses have evolved strategies to exploit the ubiquitin-proteasome system, including members of the Poxviridae family. Members of the poxvirus family have recently been

Site-Specific Proteasome Inhibitors

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
Proteasome is a multi-subunit protein degradation machine, which plays a key role in the maintenance of protein homeostasis and, through degradation of regulatory proteins, in the regulation of numerous cell functions. Proteasome inhibitors are essential

The Ubiquitin–Proteasome System in Immune Cells

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
The ubiquitin–proteasome system (UPS) is the major intracellular and non-lysosomal protein degradation system. Thanks to its unique capacity of eliminating old, damaged, misfolded, and/or regulatory proteins in a highly specific manner, the UPS is ...

The Role of Ubiquitin-Proteasome System in the Pathogenesis of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 Disease

open access: yesInternational Journal of Inflammation, 2023
Different protein degradation pathways exist in cells. However, the bulk of cellular proteins are degraded by the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS), which is one of these pathways.

An extract of Artemisia dracunculus L. inhibits ubiquitin-proteasome activity and preserves skeletal muscle mass in a murine model of diabetes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Impaired insulin signaling is a key feature of type 2 diabetes and is associated with increased ubiquitin-proteasome-dependent protein degradation in skeletal muscle. An extract of Artemisia dracunculus L.

Dual Function of USP14 Deubiquitinase in Cellular Proteasomal Activity and Autophagic Flux

open access: yesCell Reports, 2018
Summary: The ubiquitin-proteasome system and the autophagy-lysosome system are two major intracellular proteolytic pathways in eukaryotes. Although several biochemical mechanisms underlying the crosstalk between them have been suggested, little is known ...

Characterization of the ubiquitylating components of the human malaria parasite's protein degradation pathway. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Ubiquitin-dependent protein degradation within malarial parasites is a burgeoning field of interest due to several encouraging reports of proteasome inhibitors that were able to confer antimalarial activity. Despite the growing interest in the Plasmodium
