Specific ubiquitin–UBD interactions are crucial for the regulation of multiple cellular functions, including protein stability, receptor trafficking, DNA damage responses and inflammatory pathways.

Ubiquitylation is a reversible post-translational modification involved in a myriad of cellular functions. A superfamily of approximately 100 ubiquitin-specific proteases, called deubiquitylating ...

An enzyme called Ubiquitin-specific peptidase 5 is a key factor in protein quality in heart muscle cells ...

A new study has identified an enzyme that plays an important role in breaking down unneeded or damaged proteins in the heart -- an important process for maintaining heart health.

Here we explore peptide inhibitors of Cdc20, a substrate-recognition subunit and activator of the E3 ubiquitin ligase the anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) that is essential in mitosis and ...

This study presents a valuable finding on the alterations in the autophagic-lysosomal pathway in a Huntington's disease model. The evidence supporting the claims of the authors is solid. However, the ...

The ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) is a non-lysosomal proteolytic pathway involved in numerous normal functions of the nervous system, modulation of neurotransmitter release, synaptic plasticity, ...

Ubiquitination is an important regulatory mechanism of T-cell activation and several E3 ubiquitin ligases, including casitas B-lineage lymphoma proto-oncogene B (Cbl-B), itchy homolog (Itch), and gene ...
