Analysis of Morgue, a novel ubiquitination protein that functions in programmed cell death

The Drosophila morgue gene was identified as a regulator of programmed cell death and protein ubiquitination. It has been shown to enhance programmed cell death via promoting the turnover of DIAP1, a conserved anti-apoptotic protein. Morgue protein contains a zinc finger motif, an F box domain and a...
