U‑Box Ubiquitin Ligase
U‑box ubiquitin ligases are RING‑type E3 enzymes with a modified U‑box domain that enables zinc‑independent ubiquitin transfer. Key members such as CHIP, PRPF19 and UBOX5 regulate chaperone‑mediated protein quality control, DNA‑damage repair and cellular stress responses, making the U‑box family essential for proteostasis and genome stability.
