E3 ligase Nedd4l promotes antiviral innate immunity by catalyzing K29-linked cysteine ubiquitination of TRAF3

Ubiquitination is a prevalent post translational modification. Here, the authors show a pivotal role for Nedd4l in the regulation of antiviral immunity via promotion of ubiquitination of TRAF3 and go on to show disruption of Nedd4l both in vitro and in vivo perturbs the antiviral immune response.
