In the family with ubiquitin [PDF]
The Cold Spring Harbor meeting on ‘The Ubiquitin family’, held in May 2011, brought together scientists from a wide range of fields, all under the common umbrella of ubiquitin and ubiquitin‐like protein structure, function and regulation.

Structural insight into SUMO chain recognition and manipulation by the ubiquitin ligase RNF4 [PDF]
The small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) can form polymeric chains that are important signals in cellular processes such as meiosis, genome maintenance and stress response.

Rsp5 Ubiquitin Ligase Is Required for Protein Trafficking in Saccharomyces cerevisiae COPI Mutants [PDF]
Retrograde trafficking from the Golgi to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) depends on the formation of vesicles coated with the multiprotein complex COPI.

A viral ubiquitin ligase has substrate preferential SUMO targeted ubiquitin ligase activity that counteracts intrinsic antiviral defence [PDF]
Intrinsic antiviral resistance represents the first line of intracellular defence against virus infection. During herpes simplex virus type-1 (HSV-1) infection this response can lead to the repression of viral gene expression but is counteracted by the ...

Ubiquitination in Plant Meiosis: Recent Advances and High Throughput Methods
Meiosis is a specialized cell division which is essential to sexual reproduction. The success of this highly ordered process involves the timely activation, interaction, movement, and removal of many proteins. Ubiquitination is an extraordinarily diverse

Keeping Cell Death in Check: Ubiquitylation-Dependent Control of TNFR1 and TLR Signaling
Pro-inflammatory signaling pathways, induced by pathogens, tissue damage or cytokines, depend on the ubiquitylation of various subunits of receptor signaling complexes, controlled by ubiquitin ligases and deubiquitinases.

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

More Than Just Cleaning: Ubiquitin-Mediated Proteolysis in Fungal Pathogenesis
Ubiquitin-proteasome mediated protein turnover is an important regulatory mechanism of cellular function in eukaryotes. Extensive studies have linked the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) to human diseases, and an array of proteasome inhibitors have been

Structural and biochemical analyses of monoubiquitinated human histones H2B and H4 [PDF]
Monoubiquitination is a major histone post-translational modification. In humans, the histone H2B K120 and histone H4 K31 residues are monoubiquitinated and may form transcriptionally active chromatin.

Ubiquitin-proteasome dependent mitochondrial protein quality control [PDF]
Dysfunctional mitochondria cause many neurodegenerative disorders and with aging in general, mechanisms of mitochondrial quality control are essential for cellular function.
