Molecular mechanism of HUWE1-HAPSTR1-USP7-mediated ubiquitin chain amplification on nuclear proteins.
Rapid protein turnover is essential for cellular stress adaptation. HUWE1 (HECT, UBA, and WWE domain containing 1), a large HECT-type E3 ligase, regulates many short-lived stress-responsive proteins, yet the mechanisms underlying its substrate selectivity remain unclear. Here, we reveal that HUWE1 functions as a ubiqui...
