Function

UBI4P_YEAST Ubiquitin exists either covalently attached to another protein, or free (unanchored). When covalently bound, it is conjugated to target proteins via an isopeptide bond either as a monomer (monoubiquitin), a polymer linked via different Lys residues of the ubiquitin (polyubiquitin chains) or a linear polymer linked via the initiator Met of the ubiquitin (linear polyubiquitin chains). Polyubiquitin chains, when attached to a target protein, have different functions depending on the Lys residue of the ubiquitin that is linked: Lys-6-linked may be involved in DNA repair; Lys-11-linked is involved in ERAD (endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation) and in cell-cycle regulation; Lys-29-linked is involved in lysosomal degradation; Lys-33-linked is involved in kinase modification; Lys-48-linked is involved in protein degradation via the proteasome; Lys-63-linked is involved in endocytosis, and DNA-damage responses. Linear polymer chains formed via attachment by the initiator Met lead to cell signaling. Ubiquitin is usually conjugated to Lys residues of target proteins, however, in rare cases, conjugation to Cys or Ser residues has been observed. When polyubiquitin is free (unanchored-polyubiquitin), it also has distinct roles, such as in activation of protein kinases, and in signaling (By similarity).

Publication Abstract from PubMed

The activation of ubiquitin by the ubiquitin-activating enzyme Uba1 (E1) constitutes the first step in the covalent modification of target proteins with ubiquitin. This activation is a three-step process in which ubiquitin is adenylated at its C-terminal glycine, followed by the covalent attachment of ubiquitin to a catalytic cysteine residue of Uba1 and the subsequent adenylation of a second ubiquitin. Here, a ubiquitin E1 structure loaded with two ubiquitin molecules is presented for the first time. While one ubiquitin is bound in its adenylated form to the active adenylation domain of E1, the second ubiquitin represents the status after transfer and is covalently linked to the active-site cysteine. The covalently linked ubiquitin enables binding of the E2 enzyme without further modification of the ternary Uba1-ubiquitin2 arrangement. This doubly loaded E1 structure constitutes a missing link in the structural analysis of the ubiquitin-transfer cascade.
