Research progress of Nedd4L in cardiovascular diseases.

ABSTRACT: Post-translational modifications (PTMs) are a covalent processing process of proteins after translation. Proteins are capable of playing their roles only after being modified, so as to maintain the normal physiological function of cells. As a key modification of protein post-translational modification, ubiquitination is an essential element, which forms an enzyme-linked reaction through ubiquitin-activating enzyme, ubiquitin binding enzyme, and ubiquitin ligase, aiming to regulate the expression level and function of cellular proteins. Nedd4 family is the largest group of ubiquitin ligases, including 9 members, such as Nedd4-1, Nedd4L (Nedd4-2), WWP1, WWP2, ITCH, etc. They could bind to substrate proteins through their WW domain and play a dominant role in the ubiquitination process, and t
