Journal ArticleDOI

Ubiquitin-binding domains — from structures to functions

TL;DR: New structure-based insights provide strategies for controlling cellular processes by targeting ubiquitin–UBD interfaces with implications for drug design and cell reprograming.
Journal ArticleDOI

Proteasome subunit Rpn13 is a novel ubiquitin receptor

TL;DR: The identification of a new ubiquitin receptor, Rpn13/ARM1, a known component of the proteasome, is reported, suggesting a coupling of chain recognition and disassembly at the prote asome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ubiquitin docking at the proteasome through a novel pleckstrin-homology domain interaction

TL;DR: It is reported that Rpn13, a component of the nine-subunit proteasome base, functions as a ubiquitin receptor, complementing its known role in docking de-ubiquitinating enzyme Uch37/UCHL5 to the proteasomes, and a novel ubiquitIn-binding mode in which loops rather than secondary structural elements are used to capture ubiqu itin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rpn1 provides adjacent receptor sites for substrate binding and deubiquitination by the proteasome

TL;DR: The results indicate that proteasome subunit Rpn1 can recognize both ubiquitin and UBL domains of substrate shuttling factors that themselves bind ubiquit in and function as reversibly associated proteasomal Ubiquitin receptors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gates, Channels, and Switches: Elements of the Proteasome Machine

TL;DR: Cryoelectron microscopy studies are brought together with molecular analyses to describe the principles of proteasome activity and regulation.
