ITCH is an E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that accepts ubiquitin from an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme in the form of a thioester and then directly transfers the ubiquitin to targeted substrates. ITCH regulates the transcriptional activity of several transcription factors including the hematopoietic transcription factor NF-E2, and may play an important role in the regulation of immune response. ITCH down-regulates Epstein-Barr virus LMP2A activity in B cell signaling, and also interacts with NOTCH1, OCLN, JUN, and JUNB. ITCH has a wide tissue distribution and is localized within the nucleus and cytoplasm. Two ITCH splice variants have been described; an approximately 103 kDa form as well as a truncated form (~98 kDa) lacking 42 amino acids in the N-terminal half of the protein. ITCH contains a MAP Kinase binding site and its activity is modulated by phosphorylation at multiple threonine residues by JNK1.

We previously reported that hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection activates the reactive oxygen species (ROS)/c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) signaling pathway. However, the roles of ROS/JNK activation in the HCV life cycle remain unclear. We sought to identify a novel role
Lysosomes have emerged as critical regulators of cellular homeostasis. Here we show that the lysosomal protein TMEM55B contributes to restore cellular homeostasis in response to oxidative stress by three different mechanisms: (1) TMEM55B mediates NEDD4-dependent PLEKHM1 ubiquitination, causing PLEKHM1 proteasomal
Unlike the other MAP3Ks, MEKK1 (encoded by Map3k1) contains a PHD motif. To understand the role of this motif, we have created a knockin mutant of mouse Map3k1 (Map3k1(m) (PHD)) with an inactive PHD motif. Map3k1(m) (PHD) ES cells demonstrate
The metabolic state of a cell is influenced by cell-extrinsic factors, including nutrient availability and growth factor signaling. Here, we present extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling as another fundamental node of cell-extrinsic metabolic regulation. Unbiased analysis of glycolytic drivers identified the
