THE UBIQUITIN SYSTEM

Annual Review of Biochemistry, 1998
The selective degradation of many short-lived proteins in eukaryotic cells is carried out by the ubiquitin system. In this pathway, proteins are targeted for degradation by covalent ligation to ubiquitin, a highly conserved small protein. Ubiquitin-mediated degradation of regulatory proteins plays important roles in the control of numerous processes ...

[Progress in ubiquitin, ubiquitin chain and protein ubiquitination].

Sheng wu gong cheng xue bao = Chinese journal of biotechnology, 2016
Protein ubiquitination is one of the most important and widely exist protein post-translational modifications in eukaryotic cells, which takes the ubiquitin and ubiquitin chains as signal molecules to covalently modify other protein substrates. It plays an important roles in the control of almost all of the life processes, including gene transcription ...

Is This Protein Ubiquitinated?

2005
Covalent modification of proteins with ubiquitin plays an important role in a wide array of cellular processes (Hershko and Ciechanover, 1998; Pickart, 2004). For this reason an increasing number of investigators in diverse research fields are confronted with the question whether their favorite proteins are ubiquitinated.

The Ubiquitin Code

Annual Review of Biochemistry, 2012
The posttranslational modification with ubiquitin, a process referred to as ubiquitylation, controls almost every process in cells. Ubiquitin can be attached to substrate proteins as a single moiety or in the form of polymeric chains in which successive ubiquitin molecules are connected through specific isopeptide bonds.

Proteomic insights into ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like proteins

Current Opinion in Chemical Biology, 2005
The dynamic and specific modification of cellular proteins by members of the ubiquitin protein family is a vital regulatory mechanism that lies at the heart of almost all biological processes. Because of both their pervasive and complex nature, these regulatory pathways have been the target of many recent proteomic studies.

The Ubiquitin Code in the Ubiquitin-Proteasome System and Autophagy

Trends in Biochemical Sciences, 2017
The conjugation of the 76 amino acid protein ubiquitin to other proteins can alter the metabolic stability or non-proteolytic functions of the substrate. Once attached to a substrate (monoubiquitination), ubiquitin can itself be ubiquitinated on any of its seven lysine (Lys) residues or its N-terminal methionine (Met1).

The ubiquitin system

Trends in Biochemical Sciences, 1997
Eukaryotes contain a highly conserved multi-enzyme system that covalently links ubiquitin to a variety of intracellular proteins that bear degradation signals recognized by this system. The resulting ubiquitin-protein conjugates are degraded by the 26S proteasome, a large ATP-dependent protease.

Ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like proteins as multifunctional signals

Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, 2005
Protein ubiquitylation is a recognized signal for protein degradation. However, it is increasingly realized that ubiquitin conjugation to proteins can be used for many other purposes. Furthermore, there are many ubiquitin-like proteins that control the activities of proteins.

Ubiquitin in chains

Trends in Biochemical Sciences, 2000
The ubiquitin-proteasome system fulfills an essential function in eukaryotes by controlling the levels of crucial intracellular regulatory proteins. In this system, a specific type of polyubiquitin chain acts as the proximal signal for targeting substrates to 26S proteasomes for degradation.

Ubiquitin adenylate: structure and role in ubiquitin activation

Biochemistry, 1983
The acid precipitate of the ubiquitin activating enzyme after reaction with ATP and ubiquitin contains one enzyme equivalent of ubiquitin adenylate in which the carboxyl-terminal glycine of ubiquitin and AMP are in an acyl-phosphate linkage. The recovered ubiquitin adenylate has the catalytic properties proposed for it as a reaction intermediate. Thus,
