Descriptions

Ubiquitination of proteins is an abundant modification that controls numerous cellular processes. The C2-WW-HECT-domain E3 Smurf2 downregulates transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling by targeting itself, the adaptor protein Smad7, and TGF-b receptor kinases for degradation. In a human hologous protein, Smurf2 (Q9HAU4), the intramolecular interaction between C2 phospholipid binding domain and HECT domain inhibits the catalytic activity of the HECT domain by obstructing accessibility of the catalytic cysteine of the HECT domain and thus blocking Smurf2-Ub thioester formation.

6 GO annotations of cellular component

Name Definition
cytoplasm The contents of a cell excluding the plasma membrane and nucleus, but including other subcellular structures.
cytosol The part of the cytoplasm that does not contain organelles but which does contain other particulate matter, such as protein complexes.
membrane raft Any of the small (10-200 nm), heterogeneous, highly dynamic, sterol- and sphingolipid-enriched membrane domains that compartmentalize cellular processes. Small rafts can sometimes be stabilized to form larger platforms through protein-protein and protein-lipid interactions.
nuclear speck A discrete extra-nucleolar subnuclear domain, 20-50 in number, in which splicing factors are seen to be localized by immunofluorescence microscopy.
plasma membrane The membrane surrounding a cell that separates the cell from its external environment. It consists of a phospholipid bilayer and associated proteins.
ubiquitin ligase complex A protein complex that includes a ubiquitin-protein ligase and enables ubiquitin protein ligase activity. The complex also contains other proteins that may confer substrate specificity on the complex.

4 GO annotations of molecular function

Name Definition
identical protein binding Binding to an identical protein or proteins.
SMAD binding Binding to a SMAD signaling protein.
ubiquitin protein ligase activity Catalysis of the transfer of ubiquitin to a substrate protein via the reaction X-ubiquitin + S -> X + S-ubiquitin, where X is either an E2 or E3 enzyme, the X-ubiquitin linkage is a thioester bond, and the S-ubiquitin linkage is an amide bond: an isopeptide bond between the C-terminal glycine of ubiquitin and the epsilon-amino group of lysine residues in the substrate or, in the linear extension of ubiquitin chains, a peptide bond the between the C-terminal glycine and N-terminal methionine of ubiquitin residues.
ubiquitin-protein transferase activity Catalysis of the transfer of ubiquitin from one protein to another via the reaction X-Ub + Y --> Y-Ub + X, where both X-Ub and Y-Ub are covalent linkages.

9 GO annotations of biological process

Name Definition
negative regulation of BMP signaling pathway Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of the BMP signaling pathway.
negative regulation of transforming growth factor beta receptor signaling pathway Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of any TGF-beta receptor signaling pathway.
positive regulation of protein catabolic process Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of a protein by the destruction of the native, active configuration, with or without the hydrolysis of peptide bonds.
positive regulation of trophoblast cell migration Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of trophoblast cell migration.
proteasome-mediated ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of a protein or peptide by hydrolysis of its peptide bonds, initiated by the covalent attachment of ubiquitin, and mediated by the proteasome.
protein polyubiquitination Addition of multiple ubiquitin groups to a protein, forming a ubiquitin chain.
protein ubiquitination The process in which one or more ubiquitin groups are added to a protein.
ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of a protein or peptide by hydrolysis of its peptide bonds, initiated by the covalent attachment of a ubiquitin group, or multiple ubiquitin groups, to the protein.
ubiquitin-dependent SMAD protein catabolic process The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of SMAD signaling proteins by ubiquitination and targeting to the proteasome.
