RNF213 activators are a series of chemical compounds that amplify the functional ubiquitin ligase activity of RNF213 through the modulation of diverse cellular signaling pathways. Forskolin, which increases cAMP levels, indirectly augments the activity of RNF213 by activating PKA, leading to phosphorylation events that can enhance the ligase's function. This enhancement is mirrored by the action of MG132 and Epoxomicin, proteasome inhibitors that cause an accumulation of ubiquitinated proteins, thereby necessitating increased RNF213 ligase activity to maintain protein homeostasis. PMA, as a PKC activator, and Ionomycin, through its calcium ionophore activity, both lead to alterations in phosphorylation patterns, potentially enhancing RNF213's ubiquitin ligase activity. Additionally, the provision of zinc ions by ZnCl2 could act as a direct cofactor for RNF213, thus amplifying its enzymatic activity.
The second set of RNF213 activators includes LY294002, U0126, SB203580, and Okadaic Acid, each of which alters cellular signaling in a way that can indirectly enhance RNF213's activity. LY294002 suppresses PI3K, leading to compensatory ubiquitination activity, which RNF213 could be a part of, while U0126 and SB203580, as inhibitors of MEK and p38 MAPK respectively, may shift phosphorylation states that favor RNF213 activity. Okadaic Acid, inhibiting protein phosphatases, results in hyperphosphorylation, which could indirectly increase RNF213's ubiquitin ligase activity.
