Abstract

Background: Fungal sterol regulatory element-binding protein cleavage requires the Golgi Dsc E3 ligase complex of undefined structure. Results: Biochemical and bioinformatic analyses provide insight into Dsc E3 ligase architecture, indicating that Dsc2 is a ubiquitin-binding rhomboid pseudoprotease. Conclusion: The five Dsc E3 ligase subunits form subcomplexes and display defined connectivity. Significance: Multisubunit E3 ligase complexes in the ER and Golgi exhibit conserved subunit organization.
