In vitro Auto- and Substrate-Ubiquitination Assays
The precise regulation of the homeostasis of the cellular proteome is critical for the appropriate growth and development of plants. It also allows the plants to respond to various environmental stresses, by modulating their biochemical and ...

USP15 targets ALK3/BMPR1A for deubiquitylation to enhance bone morphogenetic protein signalling [PDF]
Protein kinase ALK3/BMPR1A mediates bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signalling through phosphorylation and activation of SMADs 1/5/8. SMAD6, a transcriptional target of BMP, negatively regulates the BMP pathway by recruiting E3 ubiquitin ligases and ...

RNF38 encodes a nuclear ubiquitin protein ligase that modifies p53
The RNF38 gene encodes a RING finger protein of unknown function. Here we demonstrate that RNF38 is a functional ubiquitin protein ligase (E3). We show that RNF38 isoform 1 is localized to the nucleus by a bipartite nuclear localization sequence (NLS). We confirm that RNF38 is a binding partner of p53 and demonstrate that RNF38 can ubiquitinate p53 in ...

The E3 ubiquitin ligase, RNF219, suppresses CNOT6L expression to exhibit antiproliferative activity
We identified RNF219 as a CCR4‐NOT complex‐interacting E3 ubiquitin ligase that targets the CCR4‐NOT subunit CNOT6L for ubiquitination. RNF219 directly binds to the DUF3819 domain of CNOT1 through its putative α‐helix spanning amino acids 521–542. Our findings also suggest that antiproliferative activity of RNF219 is at least partially mediated by ...

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematological tumor characterized by the malignant proliferation of plasma cells in bone marrow (BM). Despite the prolonged survival of MM patients, a significant amount of patients relapse or become drug resistant.

Reduced cul-5 activity causes aberrant follicular morphogenesis and germ cell loss in Drosophila oogenesis. [PDF]
Drosophila oogenesis is especially well suited for studying stem cell biology, cellular differentiation, and morphogenesis. The small modifier protein ubiquitin regulates many cellular pathways.

Hyperglycemia triggers HIPK2 protein degradation [PDF]
Homeodomain interacting protein kinase-2 (HIPK2) is an evolutionary conserved kinase that modulates several key molecular pathways to restrain tumor growth and induce p53-depending apoptotic cell-death in response to anticancer therapies. HIPK2 silencing

A ubiquitin-protein ligase specific for type III protein substrates. [PDF]
A previously studied species of ubiquitin-protein ligase contains specific sites for the binding of basic (Type I) and bulky hydrophobic (Type II) NH2-terminal amino acid residues of protein substrates. We now describe another enzyme that ligates ubiquitin specifically to proteins that have NH2-terminal residues other than the above two categories ...

CDT1 is an essential protein for DNA replication licensing that loads the MCM complex, the eukaryotic replicative DNA helicase, onto replication origins. Overexpression of CDT1 induces cell cycle arrest at the S phase. Here we showed CDT1 inhibits the progression of replication forks by interacting with the MCM complex, leading to the stalling and ...

Proteasome Lid Bridges Mitochondrial Stress with Cdc53/Cullin1 NEDDylation Status [PDF]
Cycles of Cdc53/Cullin1 rubylation (a.k.a NEDDylation) protect ubiquitin-E3 SCF (Skp1-Cullin1-F-box protein) complexes from self-destruction and play an important role in mediating the ubiquitination of key protein substrates involved in cell cycle ...
