Abstract
A moonlighting protein is one, which carries out multiple, often wholly unrelated, functions. The RAD23 protein is a fascinating example of this, where the same polypeptide and the embedded domains function independently in both nucleotide excision repair (NER) and protein degradation via the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS). Hence, through direct binding to the central NER component XPC, RAD23 stabilizes XPC and contributes to DNA damage recognition. Conversely, RAD23 also interacts directly with the 26S proteasome and ubiquitylated substrates to mediate proteasomal substrate recognition. In this function, RAD23 activates the proteolytic activity of the proteasome and engages specifically in well-characterized degradation pathways through direct interactions with E3 ubiquitin-protein ligases and other UPS components. Here, we summarize the past 40 years of research into the roles of RAD23 in NER and the UPS.
期刊介绍:
BBA Gene Regulatory Mechanisms includes reports that describe novel insights into mechanisms of transcriptional, post-transcriptional and translational gene regulation. Special emphasis is placed on papers that identify epigenetic mechanisms of gene regulation, including chromatin, modification, and remodeling. This section also encompasses mechanistic studies of regulatory proteins and protein complexes; regulatory or mechanistic aspects of RNA processing; regulation of expression by small RNAs; genomic analysis of gene expression patterns; and modeling of gene regulatory pathways. Papers describing gene promoters, enhancers, silencers or other regulatory DNA regions must incorporate significant functions studies.
