    Description: beta-Lactamase and penicillin-binding protein 2a mediate staphylococcal resistance to beta-lactam antibiotics, which are otherwise highly clinically effective. Production of these inducible proteins is regulated by a signal-transducing integral membrane protein and a transcriptional repressor. The signal transducer is a fusion protein with penicillin-binding and zinc metalloprotease domains. The signal for protein expression is transmitted by site-specific proteolytic cleavage of both the transducer, which autoactivates, and the repressor, which is inactivated, unblocking gene transcription. Compounds that disrupt this regulatory pathway could restore the activity of beta-lactam antibiotics against drug-resistant strains of staphylococci.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Zhang, H Z -- Hackbarth, C J -- Chansky, K M -- Chambers, H F -- AI4005804/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AI46610/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2001 Mar 9;291(5510):1962-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Infectious Diseases, San Francisco General Hospital, Department of Medicine, University of California at San Francisco, 1001 Potrero Avenue, San Francisco, CA 94110, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11239156" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Arabidopsis thaliana De-etiolated-1 (AtDET1) is a highly conserved protein, with orthologs in vertebrate and invertebrate organisms. AtDET1 negatively regulates photomorphogenesis, but its biochemical mechanism and function in other species are unknown. We report that human DET1 (hDET1) promotes ubiquitination and degradation of the proto-oncogenic transcription factor c-Jun by assembling a multisubunit ubiquitin ligase containing DNA Damage Binding Protein-1 (DDB1), cullin 4A (CUL4A), Regulator of Cullins-1 (ROC1), and constitutively photomorphogenic-1. Ablation of any subunit by RNA interference stabilized c-Jun and increased c-Jun-activated transcription. These findings characterize a c-Jun ubiquitin ligase and define a specific function for hDET1 in mammalian cells.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wertz, Ingrid E -- O'Rourke, Karen M -- Zhang, Zemin -- Dornan, David -- Arnott, David -- Deshaies, Raymond J -- Dixit, Vishva M -- GM065997/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2004 Feb 27;303(5662):1371-4.
