Analysis of Proteasome-Associated Ubiquitin Ligase Activity
The ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) is the predominant protein degradation machinery in eukaryotic cells. It is highly conserved among eukaryotes... -
Arabidopsis thaliana ubiquitin-associated protein 2 (AtUAP2) functions as an E4 ubiquitin factor and negatively modulates dehydration stress response
E4, a ubiquitin (Ub) chain assembly factor and post-translational modification protein, plays a key role in the regulation of multiple cellular...
