Published in 2018 at "Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America"

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.1716506115

Abstract: Significance Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder. It is characterized by progressive deterioration of motor function caused by loss of dopamine-producing neurons. Currently, there is no treatment that could stop the… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Cancer Research"

DOI: 10.1158/1538-7445.am2023-2606

Abstract: p53 tumor suppressor, the most mutated gene in human cancer, is negatively regulated by MDM2 and MDM4 proteins. Two distinct mechanisms of MDM2/MDM4 regulation of p53 include, one, suppression of p53 transactivation activity by direct… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Circulation Research"

DOI: 10.1161/circresaha.122.321055

Abstract: Background: As an integral component of cell membrane repair machinery, MG53 (mitsugumin 53) is important for cardioprotection induced by ischemia preconditioning and postconditioning. However, it also impairs insulin signaling via its E3 ligase activity-mediated ubiquitination-dependent… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "PLOS Genetics"

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pgen.1010457

Abstract: The tumor suppressor BRCA1-BARD1 complex functions in many cellular processes; of critical importance to its tumor suppressor function is its role in genome integrity. Although RING E3 ubiquitin ligase activity is the only known enzymatic… read more here.
