Abstract excerpt
The Ubr1-like canonical N-recognins, widely conserved ubiquitin ligases in eukaryotes, play a role in the N-end rule pathway-mediated degradation of substrates harboring basic (type-1) or bulky hydrophobic (type-2) amino acids at the N-terminus. In this study, the roles of conserved domains were studied in the Schizosaccharomyces pombe Ubr11 protein. Mutations in the UBR box and the autoinhibitory domain blocked...
