Neuralized E3 Ubiquitin Protein Ligase 2 (NEURL2) is an enzyme that functions as an E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase in humans. E3 ligases are key components of the ubiquitin-proteasome system, which targets specific proteins for degradation by attaching ubiquitin molecules to them. This process, known as ubiquitination, is critical for numerous cellular processes, including cell cycle progression, apoptosis, and DNA repair.NEURL2 is part of the Neuralized family of E3 ubiquitin ligases, which are known for their role in the Notch signaling pathway, a highly conserved cellular signaling system that regulates cell-cell interactions necessary for proper embryonic development.
Recent studies have suggested a link between NEURL2 and human diseases, including cancer. For instance, NEURL2 has been identified as a potential tumor suppressor gene in hepatocellular carcinoma, the most common type of liver cancer. Moreover, it is believed that aberrant ubiquitination due to mutations in E3 ubiquitin ligases like NEURL2 can lead to the development of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's.In summary, NEURL2 is an E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase with potential roles in various cellular processes and diseases. While its specific functions and substrates are not yet fully known, ongoing research highlights its importance in understanding the complex mechanisms of protein degradation, cellular signaling, and disease pathogenesis.
