30-418: A protein, varies depending on what the amino-terminal amino acid residue is. In the amino-terminal rule of yeast, it is known that the half-life of proteins varies depending on the presence of 12 unstable amino acid residues (arginine, lysine, histidine, tyrosine, tryptophan, isoleucine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, asparagine, glutamine) out of 20 amino acids. When methionine, glycine, serine, valine, or proline
45-513: A ubiquitin linking enzyme, can be achieved by phosphorylation or allosteric transition following ligand or subunit binding. For example, the anaphase-promoting complex (APC) is a multiubiquitin-linking enzyme that is activated during mitosis by the addition of subunits along the cell cycle. Activated APC promotes proteolysis of mitotic cyclins and metaphase-late transition regulators. UBD was first discovered in reticuloendothelial tissues and mucosal-associated lymphoid immunological systems as one of
60-490: Is a protein that in humans is encoded by the UBD gene , also known as FAT10. UBD acts like ubiquitin , by covalently modifying proteins and tagging them for destruction in the proteasome. Ubiquitin is a protein composed of 76 amino acids. In order for ubiquitin to bind to other proteins, it must go through an activation process by E1, an ATP-dependent ubiquitin activating enzyme. The carboxyl terminal (C-terminus) of ubiquitin
75-519: Is determined by the E3 enzyme. In particular, E3 enzymes can be divided into four types such as HECT, RING-finger, U-box, and PHD-finger according to the method of determining the specificity of the substrate protein. Among them, the RING-finger E3 enzyme is known to follow the amino terminal rule the best. The amino-terminal rule means that the degradation rate of a protein, that is, the half-life of
90-434: Is known that the number is the highest. About a dozen E2 proteins are known to exist in yeast as transfer proteins that transfer ubiquitin from E1 to E3 or substrates, and it has been confirmed that more types exist in higher eukaryotes than yeast. E3 enzyme, also called E3 ligase, is an enzyme that acts in the final step of attaching ubiquitin to a substrate protein. The specificity of the substrate protein to be ubiquitinated
105-460: Is linked to the cysteine residue of the E1 protein by a high energy thioester linkage and activated. This reaction requires ATP and proceeds through a covalent AMP-ubiquitin intermediate. Proteolysis in cells is an essential process to prevent the production of unwanted or abnormal proteins. During protein degradation, the process in which proteolytic enzymes act in an ATP-dependent manner mainly occurs in
120-505: Is located at the amino-terminus, it has a half-life of more than 20 hours, whereas when residues such as tyrosine, glutamine, leucine, phenylalanine, aspartate, lysine, or arginine are located, the half-life is reduced to less than 10 minutes. Activated ubiquitin bound to E1 is transferred to the cysteine residue of the E2 molecule (ubiquitin conjugating enzyme). E2 molecules form complexes with E3 protein molecules, which are accessory proteins. In
135-621: The E2-E3 complex, called ubiquitin ligase, the E3 component binds to a specific degradation signal in the substrate protein, and then the E2 enzyme helps to form a multi-ubiquitin chain at the lysine residue of the substrate protein. In order to form a multi-ubiquitin chain, the C-terminal region of the next ubiquitin molecule is linked to the lysine residue of the preceding ubiquitin. About 30 different E2s exist in mammalian cells, and more than 300 specific E2-E3 complexes have been found. Thanks to
150-417: The degradation of substrate proteins with short half-lives. In particular, in eukaryotic cells, the proteolysis process by the binding of ubiquitin composed of 76 amino acids plays an important role in regulating the half-life and function of proteins. E1, E2 proteins and E3 enzymes are essential for attaching ubiquitin to matrix proteins. Among them, only one type of E1 protein exists in an individual, and it
165-410: The function of the E3 component, they can recognize specific degradation signals of target proteins. In general, E2 is called ubiquitin-linking enzyme, and E3 is traditionally called ubiquitin-linking enzyme. Functionally, however, it is more accurate to call the E2-E3 complex a ubiquitin ligase. Multi-ubiquitin chains on target proteins are recognized by specific receptors on the proteasome. In general,

#1732772147026180-1047: The genes at the human major histocompatibility complex class I locus on chromosome 6. The UBD gene encodes an 18 kDa protein containing an N- and C-terminus with 29 and 36% identity with ubiquitin, respectively. Of the ubiquitin-like proteins that have been identified, UBD is the only one of that conjugate to target proteins by a free diglycine motif at the C-terminus and directly guides noncovalently bound proteins to proteasomal degradation. UBD also has important roles in cell mitosis, chromosome instability, apoptosis and immune response. UBD deregulation may induce abnormal alterations in apoptosis, cell division or chromosome instability, which are associated with neoplastic change. Tumor UBD expression shows some tissue specificity, with transcriptional upregulation observed in liver, uterine cervix, ovarian, pancreatic, gastric and small intestine adenocarcinomas, but not in thyroid, prostate or kidney cancers. In hepatic cancer cells, increased expression of UBD

210-456: The proteasome is responsible for removing structurally abnormal proteins, but also contributes to regulating the lifespan of specific proteins according to the intracellular environment. For example, mitotic cyclins required for the induction of mitosis (or mitosis) remain long-lived throughout the cell cycle, but are destined for abrupt degradation at the end of mitosis. Then, how does this regulation of protein degradation occur? Activation of E3,
225-783: Was associated with Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen, a cell proliferation marker, and reported to provide a growth advantage over cells without UBD expression. High UBD expression also promoted hepatocellular carcinoma development in a mouse model and formation of Mallory–Denk bodies, which are preneoplastic changes in chronic liver disease. Overexpression of UBD in gastric cancer has been correlated with metastasis and tumor staging, and both UBD mRNA and protein levels were identified as independent prognostic factors for this disease. Increased UBD has also been positively correlated with mutant p53 expression, which may activate UBD expression and indirectly facilitate gastric cancer progression. Interferon-γ and tumor necrosis factor-α act synergistically to induce
