SUMO chain-induced dimerization activates RNF4 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Dimeric RING E3 ligases interact with protein substrates and conformationally restrain the ubiquitin-E2-conjugating enzyme thioester complex such that it is primed for catalysis.

CCDC41 Drives Oocyte Meiotic Progression by Promoting Rab11a/Rab7‐Positive Vesicle Fusion with Target Membranes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
CCDC41 is essential for meiotic maturation in mouse oocytes through regulating Rab7‐positive endosomes fusion with lysosomes and Rab11a‐positive vesicle fusion with the plasma membrane. Abstract Coiled‐coil domain‐containing protein 41 (CCDC41), a core component of centriolar distal appendages involved in centriole assembly and ciliary vesicle docking,

Structural ubiquitin contributes to K48 linkage specificity of the HECT ligase Tom1

open access: yesCell Reports
Summary: Homologous to E6AP C terminus (HECT) ubiquitin ligases play key roles in essential pathways such as DNA repair, cell cycle control, or protein quality control. Tom1 is one of five HECT ubiquitin E3 ligases in budding yeast S.

A Molecular Basis for Stabilization of the von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) Tumor Suppressor Protein by Components of the VHL Ubiquitin Ligase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The multiprotein von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) tumor suppressor (CBCVHL, Cul2-Elongin BC-VHL) and SCF (Skp1-Cul1/Cdc53-F-box protein) complexes are members of structurally related families of E3 ubiquitin ligases that use a heterodimeric module composed of a ...

Restoring Histone Acetylation Accelerates Diabetic Wound Repair by Improving the Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Macrophages

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Butyrate—via epigenetic modulation of the histone core—rebalance dysregulated macrophage function and promotes wound healing under persisting hostile conditions of diabetic mice. Additionally, butyrate harmonizes macrophage interactions with keratinocytes and fibroblasts as well as breaks the vicious cycle of inflammation in chronic wounds by restoring

Ubiquitin Ligases in Control: Regulating NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience-Landmark
Ubiquitin ligases play pivotal roles in the regulation of NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation, a critical process in innate immunity and inflammatory responses.

The Role of Ubiquitin and the 26S Proteasome in Plant Abiotic Stress Signaling

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Ubiquitin is a small, highly conserved, ubiquitously expressed eukaryotic protein with immensely important and diverse regulatory functions. A well-studied function of ubiquitin is its role in selective proteolysis by the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS)

The Calcineurin-FoxO-MuRF1 signaling pathway regulates myofibril integrity in cardiomyocytes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Altered Ca2+ handling is often present in diseased hearts undergoing structural remodeling and functional deterioration. However, whether Ca2+ directly regulates sarcomere structure has remained elusive.

Tissue‐Resident Macrophage‐Derived E3 Ligase SMURF2 Restricts Autoimmune Inflammation by Mediating the Degradation of p‐TBK1

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Dysregulated Tissue resident macrophage (TRMs) link to autoimmune inflammation. SMURF2 mediates Lys‐27 (K27)‐linked ubiquitination of p‐TBK1 and its degradation, which inhibits CSF1R signaling‐triggered TRM proliferation, thereby restraining the autoimmune inflammation.

Selective targeting of activating and inhibitory Smads by distinct WWP2 ubiquitin ligase isoforms differentially modulates TGFβ signalling and EMT [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Ubiquitin-dependent mechanisms have emerged as essential regulatory elements controlling cellular levels of Smads and TGFß-dependent biological outputs such as epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT). In this study, we identify a HECT E3 ubiquitin ligase
