Export-deficient monoubiquitinated PEX5 triggers peroxisome removal in SV40 large T antigen-transformed mouse embryonic fibroblasts.

Autophagy 11 , 1326-40, (2015)

Peroxisomes are ubiquitous cell organelles essential for human health. To maintain a healthy cellular environment, dysfunctional and superfluous peroxisomes need to be selectively removed. Although emerging evidence suggests that peroxisomes are mainly degrad...

Insights into Ubiquitination from the Unique Clamp-like Binding of the RING E3 AO7 to the E2 UbcH5B.

J. Biol. Chem. 290 , 30225-39, (2015)

RING proteins constitute the largest class of E3 ubiquitin ligases. Unlike most RINGs, AO7 (RNF25) binds the E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme, UbcH5B (UBE2D2), with strikingly high affinity. We have defined, by co-crystallization, the distinctive means by whic...

Stimulation of ATP-dependent proteolysis requires ubiquitin with the COOH-terminal sequence Arg-Gly-Gly.

J. Biol. Chem. 256 , 9235-9241, (1981)

It was previously shown that ubiquitin is very similar to the polypeptide cofactor of the ATP-dependent protein degradation system from rabbit reticulocytes (Wilkinson, K. D., Urban, M. K., and Haas, A. L. (1980) J. Biol. Chem. 255, 7529-7532). We have extend...

The ubiquitin system for protein degradation.

Annu. Rev. Biochem. 61 , 761-807, (1992)

The ubiquitin-proteasome pathway and pathogenesis of human diseases.

Annu. Rev. Med. 50 , 57-74, (1999)

The ubiquitin-proteasome pathway plays a pivotal role in the degradation of short-lived and regulatory proteins important in a variety of basic cellular processes, including regulation of the cell cycle, modulation of cell surface receptors and ion channels, ...

Structure and functions of the 20S and 26S proteasomes.

Annu. Rev. Biochem. 65 , 801, (1996)

The proteasome is an essential component of the ATP-dependent proteolytic pathway in eukaryotic cells and is responsible for the degradation of most cellular proteins. The 20S (700-kDa) proteasome contains multiple peptidase activities that function through a...

Changes in the ratio of free NEDD8 to ubiquitin triggers NEDDylation by ubiquitin enzymes.

Biochem. J. 441 , 927-36, (2012)

Ubiquitin and UBL (ubiquitin-like) modifiers are small proteins that covalently modify other proteins to alter their properties or behaviours. Ubiquitin modification (ubiquitylation) targets many substrates, often leading to their proteasomal degradation. NED...

The UBAP1 subunit of ESCRT-I interacts with ubiquitin via a SOUBA domain.

Structure 20 , 414-28, (2012)

The endosomal sorting complexes required for transport (ESCRTs) facilitate endosomal sorting of ubiquitinated cargo, MVB biogenesis, late stages of cytokinesis, and retroviral budding. Here we show that ubiquitin associated protein 1 (UBAP1), a subunit of hum...

Quantitative measurement of intact alpha-synuclein proteoforms from post-mortem control and Parkinson's disease brain tissue by intact protein mass spectrometry.

Sci. Rep. 4 , 5797, (2014)

A robust top down proteomics method is presented for profiling alpha-synuclein species from autopsied human frontal cortex brain tissue from Parkinson's cases and controls. The method was used to test the hypothesis that pathology associated brain tissue will...

Structural basis for the RING-catalyzed synthesis of K63-linked ubiquitin chains.

Nat. Struct. Mol. Biol. 22 , 597-602, (2015)

RING E3 ligase-catalyzed formation of K63-linked ubiquitin chains by the Ube2V2-Ubc13 E2 complex is required in many important biological processes. Here we report the structure of the RING-domain dimer of rat RNF4 in complex with a human Ubc13∼Ub conjugate a...
