Multifaceted roles of KCTD17 in cellular homeostasis and disease

Potassium channel tetramerization domain-containing protein 17 (KCTD17) is part of the BTB/POZ domain-containing KCTD protein family and serves as a multifunctional regulator of cellular homeostasis. As an adaptor protein associated with Cullin 3 (CUL3)-based E3 ubiquitin ligase complexes, KCTD17 plays a critical role...

The E3 ubiquitin ligase HECTD3 controls immune colonic inflammation by restricting Myd88 activation and signaling.

It is demonstrated that Hectd3 directly ubiquitinates Myd88 through K27-linked Poly-Ub chains in a nondegradative manner, establishing Myd88 as a new target for Hectd3 non-degradative polyubiquitination and restriction of immune colonic inflammation.

GSK3β-FBXW7 axis regulates MAFB protein stability through ubiquitin-mediated proteasome degradation.

FBXW7, the substrate recognition component of the SCFFBXW7 E3 ubiquitin ligase complex, functions as a tumor suppressor by regulating cell cycle progression, stem cell maintenance, and cellular differentiation. Loss of FBXW7 contributes to hematopoietic malignancies and promotes monocyte-to-macrophage differentiation....

RNF213 regulates palmitate signaling through AAA+ and RZ-finger domains, a process enhanced by gain-of-function moyamoya disease-associated mutations.

RNF213 was originally identified as a susceptibility gene for Moyamoya disease (MMD), and its variants are also associated with other vascular occlusive disorders, including pulmonary arterial hypertension and large-artery atherosclerosis. RNF213 encodes a large protein with AAA+ ATPase and E3 ubiquitin ligase activiti...

Unconventional role of hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA synthase 1 in driving pathogenic TH17 cell immunity and autoimmune diseases

This work unveils a noncanonical axis in which HMGCS1 sustains ER stress to license pTH17 differentiation during autoimmune responses, and thereby unveils a noncanonical axis in which pTH17 immunity and mitigates autoimmune disease in vivo are revealed.
