mTORC2 Phosphorylation of GSDME‐N Drives Cullin4B‐Mediated Proteasomal Degradation to Suppress Pyroptosis and Confer Radioresistance in Small Cell Lung Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Radioresistance severely limits the efficacy of therapies for small cell lung cancer (SCLC). This study reveals a novel mechanism of resistance driven by the active suppression of pyroptosis. Specifically, the mTORC2 complex directly phosphorylates GSDME‐N and promotes its CUL4B‐mediated ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation.

Substrate Identification of the Adenovirus E3 Ubiquitin Ligase

open access: yes, 2015
Species C human Adenovirus type 5 (Ad5) E1B-55 kilodalton (kDa) protein is a multifunctional protein that has been implicated in numerous important parts of early viral infections, including repression of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs), sumoylation ...

Heat Shock Protein 90: From Molecular Chaperone Function to Therapeutic Targeting in Malignancies

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this review, an integrated conceptual framework linking HSP90's molecular chaperone functions to its pathological roles in cancer is proposed. HSP90 serves as a central node that integrates oncogenic signaling, buffers proteotoxic stress, maintains cancer stem cell plasticity, and shapes tumor‐immune interactions, all of which converge to drive ...

The E3 ubiquitin ligase c-IAP1 regulates PCSK9-mediated LDLR degradation: Linking the TNF-α pathway to cholesterol uptake

open access: yes, 2010
Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9), in addition to LDLR (low-density lipoprotein receptor) and APOB (apolipoprotein B), is one of three loci implicated in autosomal dominant hypercholesterolaemia (ADH)^1^.

PDIA6–SCD1 Axis Rewires Lipid Metabolism to Drive Gastric Cancer Progression

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Protein disulfide isomerase A6 (PDIA6) is identified as an oncogenic driver in gastric cancer. PDIA6 directly binds and stabilizes SCD1 by limiting its ubiquitin–proteasome‐mediated degradation, thereby sustaining monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA)‐enriched lipid homeostasis and lipid metabolic reprogramming.

TRIM proteins and CXS chemokines : evolutionary dynamics and functional characterization of two large protein families in teleost fish

open access: yes, 2012
Two large protein families with roles in the immune system were the subject of this thesis. In part one of the thesis, TRIM proteins were studied, which are part of an ancient intracellular immune system. In mammals, TRIM proteins were recently found to

RNF138‐Mediated Ubiquitination and Degradation of NS5 Restricts Tick‐Borne Encephalitis Virus Infection

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Host‐specific compatibility between RNF138‐like proteins and flavivirus NS5 determines NS5 stability. Mammalian RNF138 but not arthropod homologs recognizes and induces conserved NS5/RdRp K48‐linked ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation, thereby restricting viral replication. Ectopic RNF138 in mice attenuates TBEV‐induced pathogenesis. (Created in
