Diversity of structure and function in Cullin E3 ligases
Current Opinion in Structural Biology(2024)
摘要
The cellular process by which the protein ubiquitin (Ub) is covalently attached to a protein substrate involves Ub activating (E1s) and conjugating enzymes (E2s) that work together with a large variety of E3 ligases that impart substrate specificity. The largest family of E3s is the Cullin-RING ligase (CRL) family which utilizes a wide variety of substrate receptors, adapter proteins, and cooperating ligases. Cryo-electron microscopy (cryoEM) has revealed a wide variety of structures which suggest how Ub transfer occurs. Hydrogen deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (HDXMS) has revealed the role of dynamics and expanded our knowledge of how covalent NEDD8 modification (neddylation) activates the CRLs, particularly by facilitating cooperation with additional RING-between-RING ligases to transfer Ub.
