Abstract excerpt
Hub1 exhibits 23% sequence identity to ubiquitin. However, Hub1 lacks the C-terminal Gly, which is essential for covalent attachment to target protein(s) of ubiquitin and other ubiquitin-like (UBL) modifiers. Instead, Hub1 proteins in all eukaryotes retain the di-Tyr just before a single variable residue at the C-terminus, so one intriguing question is whether Hub1 could be linked to substrate through the...
