Open AccessSatb2 is required for the regionalization of retrosplenial cortex
The retrosplenial cortex (Rsp) is a transitional cortex located between the neocortex and archicortex, but the molecular mechanism specifying Rsp from the archicortex remains elusive. We here report that the t...

RNF220 mediates K63-linked polyubiquitination of STAT1 and promotes host defense
STAT1 is a master regulator that orchestrates type 1 and 2 interferon (IFN)-induced IFN-stimulated gene (ISG) expression. The mechanisms by which STAT1 is phosphorylated and activated upon IFN signaling remain...

TRIM26 positively regulates the inflammatory immune response through K11-linked ubiquitination of TAB1
Protein ubiquitination plays an important role in the regulation of TGF-β-activated kinase 1 (TAK1)-mediated NF-κB activation. It is well established that TAK1 activation is tightly regulated with its binding ...

The E3 ubiquitin ligase TRIM31 plays a critical role in hypertensive nephropathy by promoting proteasomal degradation of MAP3K7 in the TGF-β1 signaling pathway
Renal fibrosis and inflammation are critical for the initiation and progression of hypertensive renal disease (HRD). However, the signaling mechanisms underlying their induction are poorly understood, and the ...

Open AccessKnockdown of METTL16 disrupts learning and memory by reducing the stability of MAT2A mRNA
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is abundant in the mammalian brain and is considered to have a wide range of effects on learning and memory. Here, we found that the upregulated methyltransferase-like protein 16 (METTL16...

CD-NTase family member MB21D2 promotes cGAS-mediated antiviral and antitumor immunity
cGAS/DncV-like nucleotidyltransferase (CD-NTase) family members are immune sensors that synthesize diverse nucleotide signals to initiate antiviral response in bacteria and animals. As a founding member of CD-...

Open AccessOTUD5 promotes the inflammatory immune response by enhancing MyD88 oligomerization and Myddosome formation
Myddosome is an oligomeric complex required for the transmission of inflammatory signals from TLR/IL1Rs and consists of MyD88 and IRAK family kinases. However, the molecular basis for the self-assemble of Mydd...

E3 ubiquitin ligase TRIM31 alleviates dopaminergic neurodegeneration by promoting proteasomal degradation of VDAC1 in Parkinson’s Disease model
Mitochondrial dysfunction plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease (PD). As a mitochondrial governor, voltage-dependent anion channel 1 (VDAC1) is critical for cell survival and death si...
