Quantitative Analysis of Ubiquitinated Proteins in Human Pituitary and Pituitary Adenoma Tissues

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2019
Protein ubiquitination is an important post-translational modification that is associated with multiple diseases, including pituitary adenomas (PAs). Protein ubiquitination profiling in human pituitary and PAs remains unknown.

Mechanisms underlying linear ubiquitination and implications in tumorigenesis and drug discovery

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling, 2023
Linear ubiquitination is a distinct type of ubiquitination that involves attaching a head-to-tail polyubiquitin chain to a substrate protein. Early studies found that linear ubiquitin chains are essential for the TNFα- and IL-1-mediated NF-κB signaling ...

Ubiquitination of transcription factors in cancer: unveiling therapeutic potential

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In cancer, dysregulated ubiquitination of transcription factors contributes to the uncontrolled growth and survival characteristics of tumors. Tumor suppressors are degraded by aberrant ubiquitination, or oncogenic transcription factors gain stability through ubiquitination, thereby promoting tumorigenesis.

Translesion synthesis in mammalian cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
DNA damage blocks the progression of the replication fork. In order to circumvent the damaged bases, cells employ specialized low stringency DNA polymerases, which are able to carry out translesion synthesis (TLS) past different types of damage. The five

Uncovering Ubiquitin and Ubiquitin-like Signaling Networks

open access: yesChemical Reviews, 2011
Proteomes are significantly more complex than genomes and transcriptomes due to protein processing and extensive post-translational modification (PTM) of proteins. Hundreds of different modifications exist. Release 66 of the RESID database(1) (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/RESID/) contains 559 different modifications, including small chemical modifications such

Targeted protein degradation in oncology: novel therapeutic opportunity for solid tumours?

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Current anticancer therapies are limited by the occurrence of resistance and undruggability of most proteins. Targeted protein degraders are novel, promising agents that trigger the selective degradation of previously undruggable proteins through the recruitment of the ubiquitin–proteasome machinery. Their mechanism of action raises exciting challenges,

Dipole-dipole interactions in protein-protein complexes: a quantum mechanical study of the ubiquitin-Dsk2 complex [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2013
Quantum mechanical calculations are performed on the proteins that constitute the ubiquitin-Dsk2 complex whose atomic structure has been experimentally determined by NMR spectroscopy (PDB id 1WR1). The results indicate that the dipole moment vectors of the two proteins are aligned in a head-to-tail orientation while forming and angle of ~130{\deg ...

Mutations in LZTR1 drive human disease by dysregulating RAS ubiquitination

open access: yesScience, 2018
Regulation of RAS by ubiquitination The protein LZTR1 is mutated in human cancers and developmental diseases. Work from two groups now converges to implicate the protein in regulating signaling by the small guanosine triphosphatase RAS.

RNF115 plays dual roles in innate antiviral responses by catalyzing distinct ubiquitination of MAVS and MITA

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
MAVS and MITA are essential adaptor proteins mediating innate antiviral immune responses against RNA and DNA viruses, respectively. Here we show that RNF115 plays dual roles in response to RNA or DNA virus infections by catalyzing distinct types of ...

A role for chromatin remodellers in replication of damaged DNA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In eukaryotic cells, replication past damaged sites in DNA is regulated by the ubiquitination of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA). Little is known about how this process is affected by chromatin structure.
