Substrates of N-end rule ubiquitylation and methods for measuring the ubiquitylation of these substrates

摘要

The present invention relates to methods, compositions, compounds and kits for detecting, measuring and modulating protein ubiquitylation via the N-end rule pathway and for identifying novel substrates, enzymes and modulators of N-end rule ubiquitylation. The present invention also relates to specific substrates of N-end rule ubiquitylation as well as activated fragments of these substrates, proteases that expose N-degrons in these substrates, ubiquitin ligases that ubiquitylate these substrates and inhibitors of the ubiquitylation of these substrates.
