Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to a new ubiquitin ligase and its application. The present invention also relates to a preparation method of the ubiquitin ligase, a gene encoding the ubiquitin ligase, a vector containing the gene, and a host cell. Antibodies to ubiquitin ligases, and uses thereof. Background technique
[0002] Endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ER-associated degradation, ERAD) is an important quality control process in cells, which is very important for maintaining the homeostasis of cells. During this process, some molecular chaperones in the endoplasmic reticulum first recognize misfolded proteins or other proteins that need to be degraded, and then complete the degradation of such proteins with the participation of ubiquitin-proteasome.
[0003] Ubiquitin-proteasome is the major pathway for the targeted degradation of normal, misfolded cytoplasmic or membrane proteins in eukaryotic cells. The ubiquitin-proteasome system i...
