Abstract excerpt
The newly discovered midnolin-proteasome pathway is a unique ubiquitin-independent mechanism for degrading nuclear proteins, which is crucial for maintaining cellular protein homeostasis. The Catch domain of midnolin is essential for substrate recognition and binding, yet the underlying mechanism for its broad substrate specificity remains elusive. Transcription factor IRF4, essential for the functions of B and T...
