Abstract:Neural precursor cells expressed developmentally downregulated protein 4-2 (Nedd4-2) plays a key role in the ubiquitination process, which leads to the endocytosis and degradation of its downstream target molecules such as membrane proteins. Nedd4-2 belongs to the HECT ubiquitin ligase family, which regulates signal transduction through interaction with other proteins including 14-3-3 proteins. 14-3-3s are evolutionarily conserved proteins, which negatively regulate Nedd4-2 in cAMP-dependent manner through pho… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
