Oligomerization‐driven MLKL ubiquitylation antagonizes necroptosis [PDF]
The EMBO Journal, 2021 AbstractMixed lineage kinase domain‐like (MLKL) is the executioner in the caspase‐independent form of programmed cell death called necroptosis. Receptor‐interacting serine/threonine protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) phosphorylates MLKL, triggering MLKL oligomerization, membrane translocation and membrane disruption.

An Affinity-directed Protein Missile (AdPROM) System for Targeted Destruction of Endogenous Proteins
Bio-Protocol, 2017 We recently reported an Affinity-directed PROtein Missile (AdPROM) system for the targeted proteolysis of endogenous proteins of interest (POI) (Fulcher et al., 2016 and 2017).

Mitofusins: ubiquitylation promotes fusion [PDF]
Cell Research, 2014 Mitochondrial genes including Mfn2 are at the center of many diseases, underscoring their potential as a therapeutical target. The Chen group now identified 15-oxospiramilactone as a chemical inhibitor of the mammalian deubiquitylase USP30, acting on Mfn1 and Mfn2.

PPM1H phosphatase counteracts LRRK2 signaling by selectively dephosphorylating Rab proteins
eLife, 2019 Mutations that activate LRRK2 protein kinase cause Parkinson’s disease. LRRK2 phosphorylates a subset of Rab GTPases within their Switch-II motif controlling interaction with effectors.

Remodeling Membrane Binding by Mono-Ubiquitylation
Biomolecules, 2019 Ubiquitin (Ub) receptors respond to ubiquitylation signals. They bind ubiquitylated substrates and exert their activity in situ. Intriguingly, Ub receptors themselves undergo rapid ubiquitylation and deubiquitylation.

Protein Ubiquitylation in Pancreatic Cancer [PDF]
The Scientific World JOURNAL, 2010 Pancreatic cancer is one of the worst, as almost 100% of patients will die within 5 years after diagnosis. The tumors are characterized by an early, invasive, and metastatic phenotype, and extreme resistance to all known anticancer therapies. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop new investigative strategies in order to identify new molecular ...

USP45 and Spindly are part of the same complex implicated in cell migration
Scientific Reports, 2018 Ubiquitylation is a protein modification implicated in several cellular processes. This process is reversible by the action of deubiquinating enzymes (DUBs).

Ubiquitylation of cyclin C by HACE1 regulates cisplatin‐associated sensitivity in gastric cancer
Clinical and Translational Medicine, 2022 Background Cyclin C (CCNC) was reported to take part in regulating mitochondria‐derived oxidative stress under cisplatin stimulation. However, its effect in gastric cancer is unknown.
