Abstract excerpt
The Ubiquitin Proteasome System (UPS) is a major regulator of protein abundance in the cell. The UPS influences the functions of multiple biological processes by targeting key regulators for destruction. E3 ubiquitin ligases are a vital component of the UPS machinery, working with E1 and E2 enzymes to bind substrates and facilitate the transfer of ubiquitin molecules onto the target protein. This...
