“…Ubiquitination reactions involve three different classes of enzymes: E1 ubiquitin-activating enzymes, E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes, and E3 ubiquitin ligases such as Hrd1 and Doa10 (human MARCHF6/TEB4). INM-associated degradation (INMAD) has been proposed as an extension of ERAD to maintain INM homeostasis, which also depends on the UPS (Foresti et al, 2014; Khmelinskii et al, 2014; Koch and Yu, 2019; Smoyer and Jaspersen, 2019; Mannino and Lusk, 2022). It has been shown that in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae , ERAD and INMAD require additional machinery for the degradation of integral membrane proteins, involving Cdc48/p97, an ATPase associated with diverse cellular activities (AAA-ATPase), which removes the ubiquitinated proteins from the membrane before transferring them to the proteasome for degradation (Ruggiano et al, 2014; Christianson and Carvalho, 2022; Koch and Yu, 2019; Smoyer and Jaspersen, 2019; Mannino and Lusk, 2022).…”
