Introduction

spinqualitylabelsall models WWP2 Ubiquitin Ligase Full-length Structure (PDB entry 5TJ8) Show:Asymmetric Unit Biological Assembly Drag the structure with the mouse to rotate   Export Animated Image WWP2 is a family member of Homologous to the E6-AP Carboxyl Terminus (HECT) E3 Ligases which accept a ubiquitin molecule from an enzyme upstream in the ubiquitination pathway and transfer the ubiquitin to a target signaling molecule or transcription factor. The thioester bond formation between an active site Cystine on HECT E3 Ligases and ubiquitin differentiates this family of enzymes from the more abundant RING family of ubiquitin ligases which do not covalently bond to the ubiquitin ligand.
