Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor ubiquitination is mediated by mammalian Ubc7, a component of the endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation pathway, and is inhibited by chelation of intracellular Zn2+.Wojcikiewicz et al., Syracuse, United States. In J Biol Chem, 2003
In the present study we have examined the enzymology of ubiquitination of endogenous InsP3Rs in muscarinic agonist-stimulated SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells, focusing our attention on two mammalian E2s, MmUbc6 and MmUbc7, that have been implicated in endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) and are homologous to the yeast ERAD E2s, Ubc6p and Ubc7p.
Role of Cue1p in ubiquitination and degradation at the ER surface.Sommer et al., Berlin, Germany. In Science, 1998
Moreover, ubiquitination by Cue1p-assembled Ubc7p and Ubc6p was a prerequisite for retrograde transport of lumenal substrates out of the ER, which suggests that ubiquitination is mechanistically integrated into the ER degradation process.
