Upon delivery aliquot and store at -20°C Background: This gene encodes a member of the F-box protein family which is characterized by an approximately 40 amino acid motif, the F-box. The F-box proteins constitute one of the four subunits of ubiquitin protein ligase complex called SCFs (SKP1-cullin-F-box), which function in phosphorylation-dependent ubiquitination. The F-box proteins are divided into 3 classes: Fbws containing WD-40 domains, Fbls containing leucine-rich repeats, and Fbxs containing either different protein-protein interaction modules or no recognizable motifs. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the Fbws class; in addition to an F-box, this protein contains multiple WD-40 repeats. The encoded protein mediates degradation of CD4 via its interaction with HIV-1 Vpu. It has also been shown to ubiquitinate phosphorylated NFKBIA (nuclear factor of kappa light polypeptide gene enhancer in B-cells inhibitor, alpha), targeting it for degradation and thus activating nuclear factor kappa-B. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. A related pseudogene exists in chromosome 6. Sales:[email protected] For research purposes only.

Improvements in mass spectrometry instrumentation and computation and in protein biochemistry methods have resulted in several new methods for ubiquitin ligase substrate identification. Here we used the parallel adapter capture (PAC) proteomics approach to study ␤TrCP2/FBXW11, a substrate adaptor for the SKP1–CUL1–F-box (SCF) E3 ubiquitin ligase complex. The processivity of the ubiquitylation reaction necessitates transient physical interactions between FBXW11 and its substrates, thus making biochemi- cal purification of FBXW11-bound substrates difficult. Using the PAC-based approach, we inhibited the proteasome to “trap” ubiquitylated substrates on the SCFFBXW11 E3 complex. Comparative mass spectrometry analysis of immunopurified FBXW11 protein complexes before and after proteasome inhibition revealed 21 known and 23 putatively novel substrates. In focused studies, we found that SCFFBXW11 bound, polyubiquitylated, and destabilized RAPGEF2, a guanine nucleotide exchange factor that activates the small GTPase RAP1.

Regulation of BTRC by Gain-Of-Function TP53 Mutation(S) in Cancer Cells
Regulation of BTRC by gain-of-function TP53 mutation(s) in cancer cells By Peter Xu A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Masters of Science (M.Sc) Graduate Department of Molecular Genetics University of Toronto © Copyright by Peter Xu (2015) Regulation of BTRC by gain-of-function TP53 mutation(s) in cancer cells Peter Xu Masters of Science Department of Molecular Genetics University of Toronto 2015 ABSTRACT Regulation of BTRC by gain-of-function TP53 mutation Peter Xu, Masters of Science (2015), Department of Molecular Genetics, University of Toronto Mutation or loss of TP53 has been detected in more than 50% of all human tumours. Gain-of-function (GOF) TP53 mutations have been linked to metastasis, altered metabolism, and drug resistance. Cancer patients carrying GOF TP53 mutations in their tumours respond poorly to standard of care treatments and have a worse prognosis. In my Master’s thesis, I have focused on understanding the relationship between a frequently observed mutation of TP53 (TP53 R248W ), and BTRC , an E3 ubiquitin ligase with functions impinging on cell cycle, morphology and metabolism. I observed a correlation between BTRC protein expression and TP53 genotype across a panel cancer cell lines. Additionally, I observed that TP53 R248W -mediated regulation of BTRC expression is dependent on a post-transcriptional mechanism, likely involving more than one micro-RNA. In conclusion, I present a model describing the regulation of BTRC by TP53 , which may have implications for targeted strategies in cancers harboring GOF TP53 mutations. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Foremost, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my advisor Prof.

Comparative Analysis of the Ubiquitin-Proteasome System in Homo Sapiens and Saccharomyces Cerevisiae
Comparative Analysis of the Ubiquitin-proteasome system in Homo sapiens and Saccharomyces cerevisiae Inaugural-Dissertation zur Erlangung des Doktorgrades der Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftlichen Fakultät der Universität zu Köln vorgelegt von Hartmut Scheel aus Rheinbach Köln, 2005 Berichterstatter: Prof. Dr. R. Jürgen Dohmen Prof. Dr. Thomas Langer Dr. Kay Hofmann Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 18.07.2005 Zusammenfassung I Zusammenfassung Das Ubiquitin-Proteasom System (UPS) stellt den wichtigsten Abbauweg für intrazelluläre Proteine in eukaryotischen Zellen dar. Das abzubauende Protein wird zunächst über eine Enzym-Kaskade mit einer kovalent gebundenen Ubiquitinkette markiert. Anschließend wird das konjugierte Substrat vom Proteasom erkannt und proteolytisch gespalten. Ubiquitin besitzt eine Reihe von Homologen, die ebenfalls posttranslational an Proteine gekoppelt werden können, wie z.B. SUMO und NEDD8. Die hierbei verwendeten Aktivierungs- und Konjugations-Kaskaden sind vollständig analog zu der des Ubiquitin- Systems. Es ist charakteristisch für das UPS, daß sich die Vielzahl der daran beteiligten Proteine aus nur wenigen Proteinfamilien rekrutiert, die durch gemeinsame, funktionale Homologiedomänen gekennzeichnet sind. Einige dieser funktionalen Domänen sind auch in den Modifikations-Systemen der Ubiquitin-Homologen zu finden, jedoch verfügen diese Systeme zusätzlich über spezifische Domänentypen. Homologiedomänen lassen sich als mathematische Modelle in Form von Domänen- deskriptoren (Profile) beschreiben. Diese Deskriptoren können wiederum dazu verwendet werden, mit Hilfe geeigneter Verfahren eine gegebene Proteinsequenz auf das Vorliegen von entsprechenden Homologiedomänen zu untersuchen. Da die im UPS involvierten Homologie- domänen fast ausschließlich auf dieses System und seine Analoga beschränkt sind, können domänen-spezifische Profile zur Katalogisierung der UPS-relevanten Proteine einer Spezies verwendet werden. Auf dieser Basis können dann die entsprechenden UPS-Repertoires verschiedener Spezies miteinander verglichen werden.

Recognizes and binds to phosphorylated target proteins. SCF(BTRC) mediates the ubiquitination of CTNNB1 and participates in Wnt signaling. SCF(BTRC) mediates the ubiquitination of NFKBIA, NFKBIB and NFKBIE; the degradation frees the associated NFKB1 to translocate into the nucleus and to activate transcription. Ubiquitination of NFKBIA occurs at 'Lys-21' and 'Lys-22'. SCF(BTRC) mediates the ubiquitination of phosphorylated NFKB1/nuclear factor NF-kappa-B p105 subunit, ATF4, SMAD3, SMAD4, CDC25A, DLG1, FBXO5 and probably NFKB2. SCF(BTRC) mediates the ubiquitination of phosphorylated SNAI1. May be involved in ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation through a DBB1-CUL4 E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase. Required for activation of NFKB-mediated transcription by IL1B, MAP3K14, MAP3K1, IKBKB and TNF. Required for proteolytic processing of GLI3. Expected subcellular localization： Cytoplasm, Nucleus. Expected tissue specificity：Expressed in epididymis (at protein level). Summary：This gene encodes a member of the F-box protein family which is characterized by an approximately 40 amino acid motif, the F-box. The F-box proteins constitute one of the four subunits of ubiquitin protein ligase complex called SCFs (SKP1-cullin-F-box), which function in phosphorylation-dependent ubiquitination.

Wingless Signaling: a Genetic Journey from Morphogenesis to Metastasis
| FLYBOOK CELL SIGNALING Wingless Signaling: A Genetic Journey from Morphogenesis to Metastasis Amy Bejsovec1 Department of Biology, Duke University, Durham, North Carolina 27708 ORCID ID: 0000-0002-8019-5789 (A.B.) ABSTRACT This FlyBook chapter summarizes the history and the current state of our understanding of the Wingless signaling pathway. Wingless, the fly homolog of the mammalian Wnt oncoproteins, plays a central role in pattern generation during development. Much of what we know about the pathway was learned from genetic and molecular experiments in Drosophila melanogaster, and the core pathway works the same way in vertebrates. Like most growth factor pathways, extracellular Wingless/ Wnt binds to a cell surface complex to transduce signal across the plasma membrane, triggering a series of intracellular events that lead to transcriptional changes in the nucleus. Unlike most growth factor pathways, the intracellular events regulate the protein stability of a key effector molecule, in this case Armadillo/b-catenin. A number of mysteries remain about how the “destruction complex” desta- bilizes b-catenin and how this process is inactivated by the ligand-bound receptor complex, so this review of the field can only serve as a snapshot of the work in progress.
