| Description | Pupylation is a novel protein modification system found in some bacteria [ ]. This entry represents two related groups of proteins involved in this system. Pup ligases, such as PafA, conjugate the prokaryotic ubiquitin-like protein Pup to lysine residues in target proteins, marking them for degradation []. Pup deamidases, such as PafD, catalyse the deamidation of the Pup C-terminal glutamine to glutamate, thereby rendering the protein competent for conjugation []. It has been suggested that proteins in this entry are related to gamma-glutamyl-cysteine synthetases []. |
