When covalently bound,it isconjugated to target proteins via an isopeptide bond either as a monomer (monoubiquitin), a polymer linked via different Lys residues of theubiquitin (polyubiquitin chains) or a linear polymer linked via theinitiator Met ofthe ubiquitin (linear polyubiquitin chains).Polyubiquitin chains,when attached to a target protein,have different functions depending on theLys residue of theubiquitin that is linked: Lys-6-linked may be involved in DNA repair; Lys-11-linked is involved in ERAD (endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation) andin cell-cycle regulation; Lys-29-linked is involved inlysosomal degradation; Lys-33-linked isinvolved in kinase modification; Lys-48-linked isinvolved in protein degradation via the proteasome; Lys-63-linked is involved in endocytosis,DNA-damage responses as well as insignaling processes leading toactivation of thetranscription factor NF-kappa-B.Linear polymer chains formedvia attachment by theinitiator Met lead tocell signaling. Ubiquitin is usually conjugated toLys residues of target proteins, however, inrare cases,conjugation to Cys or Ser residues has been observed.When polyubiquitin isfree (unanchored-polyubiquitin),it also has distinct roles, such as in activation of protein kinases, andin signaling.<ref>PMID:16543144</ref> <ref>PMID:19754430</ref>   Ribosomal protein L40 is acomponent of the60S subunit of theribosome.<ref>PMID:16543144</ref> <ref>PMID:19754430</ref>   | + | [https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/M4STU1_MERS M4STU1_MERS] Forms a primer, NSP9-pU, which is utilized by the polymerase for the initiation of RNA chains.

  Publication Abstract from PubMed Middle-East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) is a newly emerging human pathogen that was first isolated in 2012. MERS-CoV replication depends in part on a virus-encoded papain-like protease (PLpro) that cleaves the viral replicase polyproteins at three sites releasing non-structural protein (nsp) 1, nsp2 and nsp3. In addition to this replicative function, MERS-CoV PLpro was recently shown to possess deubiquitinating (DUB) and deISGylating activities, as previously reported for other coronaviral PLpro domains including that of severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus (SARS-CoV). These activities have been suggested to suppress host antiviral responses during infection. To understand the molecular basis for ubiquitin (Ub) recognition and deconjugation by MERS-CoV PLpro, we determined its crystal structure in complex with Ub. Guided by this structure, mutations were introduced into PLpro to specifically disrupt Ub binding without affecting viral polyprotein cleavage, as determined using an in trans nsp3|4 cleavage assay. Having developed a strategy to selectively disable PLpro DUB activity, we were able to specifically examine the effects of this activity on the innate immune response. Whereas the wild-type PLpro domain was found to suppress IFN-beta promoter activation, PLpro variants specifically lacking DUB activity were no longer able to do so. These findings directly implicate the DUB function of PLpro, and not its proteolytic activity per se, in the inhibition of IFN-beta promoter activity. The ability to decouple the DUB activity of PLpro from its role in viral polyprotein processing now provides an approach to further dissect the role(s) of PLpro as a viral DUB during MERS-CoV infection.
