| Abstract | The RAD6 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae encodes a 20 kd ubiquitin conjugating (E2) enzyme that is required for DNA repair, DNA damage-induced mutagenesis, and sporulation. Here, we demonstrate a novel activity of RAD6 protein--its ability to mediate protein degradation dependent on the N-end-recognizing ubiquitin protein ligase (E3). In reaction mixtures containing E1, E3 and the ubiquitin specific protease from rabbit reticulocytes, RAD6 is as effective as mammalian E214k in E3 dependent ubiquitin--protein conjugate formation and subsequent protein degradation. The ubiquitin conjugating activity of RAD6 is required for these reactions as indicated by the ineffectiveness of the rad6 Ala88 and rad6 Val88 mutant proteins, which lack the ability to form a thioester adduct with ubiquitin and therefore do not conjugate ubiquitin to substrates. We also show that the highly acidic carboxyl-terminus of RAD6 is dispensable for the interaction with E3, and that purified S. cerevisiae E2(30k), product of the UBC1 gene, does not function with E3. These findings demonstrate a specific interaction between RAD6 and E3, and highlight the strong conservation of the ubiquitin conjugating system in eukaryotes. We suggest a function for RAD6 mediated E3 dependent protein degradation in sporulation, and discuss the possible role of this activity during vegetative growth. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
