The Expanding Diversity of Plant U-box E3 Ubiquitin Ligases in Arabidopsis: Identifying AtPUB18 and AtPUB19 Function during Abiotic Stress Responses
… focal point of this research is on plant U-box (PUB) E3 ubiquitin ligases, a family that has undergone a large gene expansion possibly attributable to the regulation of biological processes unique to the plant life cycle. In Arabidopsis there are 64 predicted PUBs, many for which biological …

Functional Interactions of E2~Ubiquitin Conjugates in and outside the Ubiquitination Pathway
… site. We determined that addition of RING/U-box E3 ligases induced a shift in the ensemble of UbcH5c~Ub populated states toward more "closed" conformations. A variety of biochemical assays were used to show that these closed conformations represent the activated states by which E3 ligases …

Identification and functional characterization of RXLR effector proteins that are conserved between downy mildew pathogens and Phytophthora species
… addition, both effectors interact with plant U-box (PUB) proteins that are conserved between diverse plant species. The targeted PUB proteins are negative regulators of plant immunity in Arabidopsis. These experiments demonstrate that evolutionarily-conserved effectors from different oomycete …

Female sterility and carpel development in plants
… structural and functional protein components, F-Box and U-Box proteins, and ankyrin, penta-, tetra- and tri- copeptide repeat containing proteins. The known loci identified to have SNPs include key players such as HUELLENOS (HLL), MEIOSIS DEFECTIVE 1 (MEI1), ESSENTIAL MEIOTIC ENDONUCLEASE 1B (EME …

Biological and Biochemical Characterization of Atypical Receptor-Like Cytoplasmic Kinases in Arabidopsis Immune Signaling
… the RLCK-IXb subgroup possess a plant ubiquitin-box (PUB) type E3 ubiquitin ligase domain and have been identified as targets of diverse pathogen effectors in multiple plant species, including Arabidopsis thaliana, potato, tomato, and Nicotiana benthamiana. However, the biochemical functions and …
