Zentrum fur Molekulare Biologie der Universitat Heidelberg, Im Neuenheimer Feld 282, 69120 Heidelberg, Germany
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 96:5510-5. 1999..A tumorigenic pVHL variant, however, is essentially deficient in this activity. Thus, ligation of NEDD8 to hCUL-2 is linked to pVHL activity and may be important for pVHL tumor suppressor function...
Identification of the von Hippel-lindau tumor-suppressor protein as part of an active E3 ubiquitin ligase complexK Iwai
