EC 2.3.2.32 Details
EC number
2.3.2.32
Accepted name
cullin-RING-type E3 NEDD8 transferase
Reaction
[E2 NEDD8-conjugating enzyme]-S-[NEDD8-protein]-yl-L-cysteine + [cullin]-L-lysine = [E2 NEDD8-conjugating enzyme]-L-cysteine + [cullin]-N6-[NEDD8-protein]-yl-L-lysine
Other name(s)
RBX1 (gene name)
Systematic name
[E2 NEDD8-conjugating enzyme]-S-[NEDD8-protein]-yl-L-cysteine:[cullin] [NEDD8-protein] transferase (isopeptide bond-forming; RING-type)
Comment
Some RING-type E3 ubiquitin transferase (EC 2.3.2.27) are not able to bind a substrate protein directly. Instead, they form a complex with a cullin scaffold protein and a substrate recognition module, which is named CRL for Cullin-RING-Ligase. The cullin protein needs to be activated by the ubiquitin-like protein NEDD8 in a process known as neddylation. The transfer of NEDD8 from a NEDD8-specific E2 enzyme onto the cullin protein is a secondary function of the RING-type E3 ubiquitin transferase in the CRL complex. The process requires auxiliary factors that belong to the DCN1 (defective in cullin neddylation 1) family.
