Abstract excerpt
Treatment of yeast and human cells with DNA-damaging agents elicits lysine 48-linked polyubiquitylation of Rpb1, the largest subunit of RNA polymerase II (Pol II), which targets Pol II for proteasomal degradation. However, the ubiquitin ligase (E3) responsible for Pol II polyubiquitylation has not been identified in humans or the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Here we show that elongin A (Ela1) and cullin 3...
