SUMO conjugation regulates immune signalling
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) are critical drivers and attenuators for proteins that regulate immune signalling cascades in host defence. In this review, we explore functional roles for one such PTM, the small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO ...

In humans and other holozoan organisms, the ribosomal protein eS30 is synthesized as a fusion protein with the ubiquitin-like protein FUBI. However, FUBI is not part of the mature 40S ribosomal subunit and cleaved off by an as-of-yet unidentified ...

Dss1 is a 26S proteasome ubiquitin receptor [PDF]
The ubiquitin-proteasome system is the major pathway for protein degradation in eukaryotic cells. Proteins to be degraded are conjugated to ubiquitin chains that act as recognition signals for the 26S proteasome.

Solo or in Concert: SUMOylation in Pathogenic Fungi [PDF]
SUMOylation plays a pivotal role in DNA replication and repair, transcriptional stability, and stress response. Although SUMOylation is a conserved post-translational modification (PTM) in eukaryotes, the number, type, and function of SUMOylation ...

Triad3a induces the degradation of early necrosome to limit RipK1-dependent cytokine production and necroptosis. [PDF]
Understanding the molecular signaling in programmed cell death is vital to a practical understanding of inflammation and immune cell function. Here we identify a previously unrecognized mechanism that functions to downregulate the necrosome, a central ...

Ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase L1 (UCHL1) is a deubiquitinase known to play essential roles in the nervous tissue. Myocardial upregulation of UCHL1 was observed in human dilated cardiomyopathy and several animal models of heart disease, but the ...

Phenotypic Characterization of the Arabidopsis ufm1 (Ubiquitin Fold Modifier) Gene Involved in Seed Development [PDF]
Background and Objective: With the completion of the Arabidopsis genome sequencing, the next challenge is the determination ofgene function. Post-translational modifications of proteins by small polypeptide are implicated in plant growth and development ...

Pathophysiology of Primary Cilia: Signaling and Proteostasis Regulation
Primary cilia are microtubule-based, non-motile sensory organelles present in most types of growth-arrested eukaryotic cells. They are transduction hubs that receive and transmit external signals to the cells in order to control growth, differentiation ...

The short-lived MATα2 transcriptional regulator is ubiquitinated in vivo [PDF]
The substrates of ubiquitin-dependent proteolytic pathways include both damaged or otherwise abnormal proteins and undamaged proteins that are naturally short-lived. Few specific examples of the latter class have been identified, however.

A Novel Peptide-Based SILAC Method to Identify the Posttranslational Modifications Provides Evidence for Unconventional Ubiquitination in the ER-Associated Degradation Pathway. [PDF]
The endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) pathway is responsible for disposing misfolded proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum by inducing their ubiquitination and degradation.
