Solution NMR structure of the native form of UbcH7 (UBE2L3)
Structural highlights
Function[UB2L3_HUMAN] Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2 that specifically acts with HECT-type and RBR family E3 ubiquitin-protein ligases. Does not function with most RING-containing E3 ubiquitin-protein ligases because it lacks intrinsic E3-independent reactivity with lysine: in contrast, it has activity with the RBR family E3 enzymes, such as PARK2 and ARIH1, that function like function like RING-HECT hybrids. Accepts ubiquitin from the E1 complex and catalyzes its covalent attachment to other proteins. In vitro catalyzes 'Lys-11'-linked polyubiquitination. Involved in the selective degradation of short-lived and abnormal proteins. Down-regulated during the S-phase it is involved in progression through the cell cycle. Regulates nuclear hormone receptors transcriptional activity. May play a role in myelopoiesis.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] Publication Abstract from PubMedUbiquitination is a post-translational modification that regulates a plethora of processes in cells. Ubiquitination requires three type of enzyme: E1 ubiquitin (Ub) activating enzymes, E2 Ub conjugating enzymes and E3 ubiquitin ligases. The E2 enzymes perform a variety of functions, as Ub chain initiation, elongation and regulation of the topology and the process of chain formation. The E2 enzymes family is mainly characterized by a highly conserved ubiquitin conjugating domain (UBC), which comprises the binding region for the activated Ub, E1 and E3 enzymes. The E2 enzyme UbcH7 (UBE2L3) is a known interacting partner for different types of E3 Ub ligases such as HECT, RING and RBR. A structural analysis of the apo form of the native UbcH7 will provide the structural information to understand how this E2 enzyme is implicated in a wide range of diseases and how it interacts with its partners. In the present study we present the high yield expression of the native UbcH7 E2 enzyme and its preliminary analysis via solution NMR spectroscopy. The E2 enzyme is folded in solution and nearly a complete backbone assignment was achieved. Additionally, TALOS+ analysis was performed and the results indicated that UbcH7 adopts a alphabetabetabetabetaalphaalphaalpha topology which is similar to that of the majority of E2 enzymes.
