PINK1-PARKIN interplay: down to ubiquitin phosphorylation

Mol Cell. 2014 Nov 6;56(3):341-342. doi: 10.1016/j.molcel.2014.10.022. Epub 2014 Nov 6.

Abstract

By using quantitative proteomics, Ordureau et al. (2014) provide a comprehensive view on the regulatory steps by which PINK1-mediated phosphorylation of PARKIN and ubiquitin triggers the recruitment of the ubiquitin ligase PARKIN to damaged mitochondria.
