Anti-E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase MUL1 antibody,Abcam,AB155511

Target data Exhibits weak E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase activity (PubMed : 18591963, PubMed : 19407830, PubMed : 22410793). E3 ubiquitin ligases accept ubiquitin from an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme in the form of a thioester and then directly transfer the ubiquitin to targeted substrates (PubMed : 18591963, PubMed : 19407830, PubMed : 22410793). Can ubiquitinate AKT1 preferentially at 'Lys-284' involving 'Lys-48'-linked polyubiquitination and seems to be involved in regulation of Akt signaling by targeting phosphorylated Akt to proteasomal degradation (PubMed : 22410793). Mediates polyubiquitination of cytoplasmic TP53 at 'Lys-24' which targets TP53 for proteasomal degradation, thus reducing TP53 levels in the cytoplasm and mitochondrion (PubMed : 21597459). Proposed to preferentially act as a SUMO E3 ligase at physiological concentrations (PubMed : 19407830). Plays a role in the control of mitochondrial morphology by promoting mitochondrial fragmentation, and influences mitochondrial localization (PubMed : 18207745, PubMed : 18213395, PubMed : 19407830). Likely to promote mitochondrial fission through negatively regulating the mitochondrial fusion proteins MFN1 and MFN2, acting in a pathway that is parallel to the PRKN/PINK1 regulatory pathway (PubMed : 24898855). May also be involved in the sumoylation of the membrane fission protein DNM1L (PubMed : 18207745, PubMed : 19407830). Inhibits cell growth (PubMed : 18591963, PubMed : 22410793). When overexpressed, activates JNK through MAP3K7/TAK1 and induces caspase-dependent apoptosis (PubMed : 23399697). Involved in the modulation of innate immune defense against viruses by inhibiting RIGI-dependent antiviral response (PubMed : 23399697). Can mediate RIGI sumoylation and disrupt its polyubiquitination (PubMed : 23399697). See full target information MUL1
