NF-kappaB activation: Nondegradative ubiquitination implicates NEMO

Alain Israël. Trends Immunol. 2006 Sep.

Abstract

Non-degradative ubiquitination events have been recently demonstrated to have an important role in activating the IkappaB kinase (IKK) complex, the central component of the nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB signaling cascade. Two new papers demonstrate that NF-kappaB essential modulator (NEMO)-IKKgamma, the structural and regulatory component of the IKK complex, specifically recognizes Lys63 polyubiquitin chains attached to the receptor-interacting protein (RIP)1 kinase following tumor necrosis factor treatment, and that this recognition is a requirement for IKK activation.
