== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/WWP2_HUMAN WWP2_HUMAN] E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase which accepts ubiquitin from an E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme in the form of a thioester and then directly transfers the ubiquitin to targeted substrates. Polyubiquitinates POU5F1 by 'Lys-63'-linked conjugation and promotes it to proteasomal degradation; in embryonic stem cells (ESCs) the ubiquitination is proposed to regulate POU5F1 protein level. Ubiquitinates EGR2 and promotes it to proteasomal degradation; in T-cells the ubiquitination inhibits activation-induced cell death. Ubiquitinates SLC11A2; the ubiquitination is enhanced by presence of NDFIP1 and NDFIP2. Ubiquitinates RPB1 and promotes it to proteasomal degradation.<ref>PMID:19274063</ref> <ref>PMID:19651900</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
The HECT E3 ubiquitin ligases 1 (WWP1) and 2 (WWP2) are responsible for the ubiquitin-mediated degradation of key tumour suppressor proteins and are dysregulated in various cancers and diseases. Here we expand their limited inhibitor space by identification of NSC-217913 displaying a WWP1 IC(50) of 158.3 microM (95% CI = 128.7, 195.1 microM). A structure-activity relationship by synthesis approach aided by molecular docking led to compound 11 which displayed increased potency with an IC(50) of 32.7 microM (95% CI = 24.6, 44.3 microM) for WWP1 and 269.2 microM (95% CI = 209.4, 347.9 microM) for WWP2. Molecular docking yielded active site-bound poses suggesting that the heterocyclic imidazo[4,5-b]pyrazine scaffold undertakes a pi-stacking interaction with the phenolic group of tyrosine, and the ethyl ester enables strong ion-dipole interactions. Given the therapeutic potential of WWP1 and WWP2, we propose that compound 11 may provide a basis for future lead compound development.
