Determinants of chemoselectivity in ubiquitination by the J2 family of ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes
12 Nov 2024
Abstract excerpt
Ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes (E2) play a crucial role in the attachment of ubiquitin to proteins. Together with ubiquitin ligases (E3), they catalyze the transfer of ubiquitin (Ub) onto lysines with high chemoselectivity. A subfamily of E2s, including yeast Ubc6 and human Ube2J2, also mediates noncanonical modification of serines, but the structural determinants for this chemical versatility remain unknown....
