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...

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 ...

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 ...

Open AccessThe overexpression of Tipe2 in CRC cells suppresses survival while endogenous Tipe2 accelerates AOM/DSS induced-tumor initiation
Aging is a natural and progressive process characterized by an increased frequency of age-related diseases such as cancer. But its mechanism is unclear. TNFAIP8L2 (Tipe2) is an important negative regulator for...

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...
