Funded Activity Summary

Ubiquitin is a small molecule which controls all facets of a cell's growth and biology, such as growth. Ubiquitin functions by being attached to proteins in cells to alter their function and hence a particular chemical pathway. How ubiquitin is attached to proteins is poorly understood. This studiy will unveil how enzymes termed Ubcs attach ubiquitin to proteins, which is fundamental to understanding how ubiquitn controls cell functions.
