How can the #ubiquitin #ligase APC/C recognize and inactivate the major kinase, CDK1-Cyclin B1, as soon as the spindle checkpoint is switched off?
Luca Cirillo, Rose Young et al identify chromosome as the key platform, recruiting both Cyclin B1 and APC3 via arginine anchor motifs in their sequences

Extensive multivalent interactions between intrinsically disordered regions in the #BRCA1/#BARD1 #E3 #ligase and #nucleosome substrates facilitate #chromatin recruitment and contribute to histone H2A #ubiquitylation and #DNArepair

How are specific dysfunctional #mitochondria removed under steady-state conditions?
Julia Pagan and coworkers (University of Queensland) show that an #SCF #ubiquitin #ligase based on #FBXL4, mutated in #MTDPS13, limits basal #mitophagy via #ubiquitination of #NIX and #BNIP3 receptors

What controls basal, #Parkin-independent #mitophagy?
E3 #ubiquitin #ligase screen by Sylvie Urbé, Michael Clague and coworkers identifies #VHL and #FBXL4 as negative regulators of mitophagy receptors #NIX and #BNIP3 via transcriptional and direct post-translational mechanisms, respectively

Viral mimicry of a #DCAF #ubiquitin #ligase adaptor: #CryoEM shows how rodent #cytomegalovirus #CMV E27/M27 hijacks host cell #CRL4 #cullin-RING E3s to degrade #STAT2 and suppress #antiviral #interferon signaling

#BRD4-#PRC2 represses #transcription of T-helper 2-specific negative regulators during #Tcell #differentiation:
Brd4 interacts with #Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) to repress transcriptional expression of T-helper 2 (Th2)-negative regulators #Foxp3 and E3 #ubiqutin #ligase #Fbxw7 during lineage-specific differentiation of #Th2 cells from mouse primary naïve CD4+ T cells

Protein complex assembly #qualitycontrol in action:
#cryoEM structures by Nico Thomä at FMI and colleagues show how #CRL4-#DCAF12 #ubiquitin E3 #ligase engages a C-terminal di-Glu #degron in CCT5 recognizable only when this subunit is not incorporated into the #TRiC/#CCT #chaperone complex

Unusual #ubiquitin #ligase interplay in #Hippo #signaling:
Bin Zhao, Xin-Hua Feng and colleagues Zhejiang University show that #HERC3 blocks #YAP/#TAZ recognition and degradation via #SCF-#betaTrCP independent of its own E3 activity
