IUBMB Comments

Some RING-type E3 ubiquitin transferase (EC 2.3.2.27) are not able to bind a substrate protein directly. Instead, they form a complex with a cullin scaffold protein and a substrate recognition module, which is named CRL for Cullin-RING-Ligase. The cullin protein needs to be activated by the ubiquitin-like protein NEDD8 in a process known as neddylation. The transfer of NEDD8 from a NEDD8-specific E2 enzyme onto the cullin protein is a secondary function of the RING-type E3 ubiquitin transferase in the CRL complex. The process requires auxiliary factors that belong to the DCN1 (defective in cullin neddylation 1) family.

The enzyme appears in viruses and cellular organisms
