Ubiquitin-protein ligase E3C

Definition

E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that specifically catalyzes 'Lys-29'- and 'Lys-48'-linked polyubiquitin chains. Accepts ubiquitin from the E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme UBE2D1 in the form of a thioester and then directly transfers the ubiquitin to targeted substrates. Associates with the proteasome and promotes elongation of ubiquitin chains on substrates bound to the 26S proteasome. Also catalyzes 'Lys-29'- and 'Lys-48'-linked ubiquitination of 26S proteasome subunit ADRM1/RPN13 in response to proteotoxic stress, impairing the ability of the proteasome to bind and degrade ubiquitin-conjugated proteins. Acts as a negative regulator of autophagy by mediating 'Lys-29'- and 'Lys-48'-linked ubiquitination of PIK3C3/VPS34, promoting its degradation. Can assemble unanchored poly-ubiquitin chains in either 'Lys-29'- or 'Lys-48'-linked polyubiquitin chains; with some preference for 'Lys-48' linkages. Acts as a negative regulator of type I interferon by mediating 'Lys-48'-linked ubiquitination of IRF3 and IRF7, leading to their degradation by the proteasome. Catalyzes ubiquitination and degradation of CAND2.
