Ubiquitin (Ub) and ubiquitin-like (Ubl) proteins attached to their target proteins and modulating the activities of those targets in various ways. Three types of evolutionarily conserved enzymes — E1 activating enzymes, E2 conjugating enzymes and E3 ligase enzymes — act sequentially through parallel yet distinct pathways to conjugate ubiquitin and Ubl proteins, such as SUMO and NEDD8, to their targets. The E1 enzyme uses the <scene name='3kyc/Cv/3'>adenosine triphosphate (ATP)</scene> and magnesium to adenylate the C-terminal Ub/Ubl glycine, releasing pyrophosphate and resulting in <scene name='3kyc/Cv/8'>adenosine monophosphate (AMP)</scene>. A non-hydrolysable <scene name='3kyc/Cv/4'>mimic of the acyl adenylate intermediate (AMSN)</scene> and <scene name='3kyc/Cv/5'>mimic of the tetrahedral intermediate (AVSN)</scene> were constructed. In both these compounds the atom of <font color='orange'><b>phosphorus</b></font> is replaced by sulfur (colored <span style="color:yellow;background-color:black;font-weight:bold;">yellow</span>). | Ubiquitin (Ub) and ubiquitin-like (Ubl) proteins attached to their target proteins and modulating the activities of those targets in various ways.
