The Ubiquitination Machinery of the Ubiquitin System [PDF]
The Arabidopsis Book, 2014 The protein ubiquitin is a covalent modifier of proteins, including itself. The ubiquitin system encompasses the enzymes required for catalysing attachment of ubiquitin to substrates as well as proteins that bind to ubiquitinated proteins leading them to their final fate.

eLife, 2014 The primary cilium has an important role in signaling; defects in structure are associated with a variety of human diseases. Much of the most basic biology of this organelle is poorly understood, even basic mechanisms, such as control of growth and ...

Global and context-specific transcriptional consequences of oncogenic Fbw7 mutations
eLife, 2022 The Fbw7 ubiquitin ligase targets many proteins for proteasomal degradation, which include oncogenic transcription factors (TFs) (e.g., c-Myc, c-Jun, and Notch).

Characterization of a Dominant Negative Mutant of the Cell Cycle Ubiquitin-conjugating Enzyme Cdc34 [PDF]
, 1995 The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae CDC34 gene encodes a ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme that is required for the cell cycle G(1)/S transition. We show here that a dominant negative Cdc34 protein is generated by simultaneously replacing both Cys and Leu with

Ubiquitin in Motion: Structural Studies of the Ubiquitin-Conjugating Enzyme∼Ubiquitin Conjugate [PDF]
Biochemistry, 2011 Ubiquitination of proteins provides a powerful and versatile post-translational signal in the eukaryotic cell. The formation of a thioester bond between ubiquitin (Ub) and the active site of a ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme (E2) is critical for the transfer of Ub to substrates. Assembly of a functional ubiquitin ligase (E3) complex poised for Ub transfer

Triad3a induces the degradation of early necrosome to limit RipK1-dependent cytokine production and necroptosis. [PDF]
, 2018 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 ...

A single vertebrate DNA virus protein disarms invertebrate immunity to RNA virus infection
eLife, 2014 Virus-host interactions drive a remarkable diversity of immune responses and countermeasures. We found that two RNA viruses with broad host ranges, vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) and Sindbis virus (SINV), are completely restricted in their replication ...

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.
