Abstract excerpt
Recent structural analyses support a model whereby Mms2 interacts with and orientates Ub to promote Ubc13-mediated Lys63 chain formation. However, residues of the hMms2-Ub interface have not been addressed. We found two hMms2 residues to be critical for binding and polyUb conjugation. Surprisingly, while each single mutation reduces the binding affinity, the double mutation causes significant reduction of Ub...
