Quantitative mass spectrometry to discover interactors of parkin E3 ubiquitin ligase, a protein implicated in early-onset Parkinson's disease

Ubiquitylation is a major post-translational modification based on a network of about six hundred E3 ubiquitin ligases in human. It is involved in several processes such as proteolysis, vesicle trafficking and DNA damage response. Mutations in PARK2, which encode parkin E3 ubiquitin ligase, account...
