STRUCTURE OF A CBL-UBCH7 COMPLEX: RING DOMAIN FUNCTION IN UBIQUITIN-PROTEIN LIGASES

Overview

Ubiquitin-protein ligases (E3s) regulate diverse cellular processes by, mediating protein ubiquitination. The c-Cbl proto-oncogene is a RING, family E3 that recognizes activated receptor tyrosine kinases, promotes, their ubiquitination by a ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme (E2) and terminates, signaling. The crystal structure of c-Cbl bound to a cognate E2 and a, kinase peptide shows how the RING domain recruits the E2. A comparison, with a HECT family E3-E2 complex indicates that a common E2 motif is, recognized by the two E3 families. The structure reveals a rigid coupling, between the peptide binding and the E2 binding domains and a conserved, surface channel leading from the peptide to the E2 active site, suggesting, that RING E3s may function as scaffolds that position the substrate and, the E2 optimally for ubiquitin transfer.
