Cryo-EM structure of the KLHL22 E3 ligase bound to an oligomeric metabolic enzyme

CULLIN-RING ligases constitute the largest group of E3 ubiquitin ligases. While some CULLIN family members recruit adapters before engaging further with different substrate receptors, homo-dimeric BTB-Kelch family proteins combine adapter and substrate receptor into a single polypeptide for the CULLIN3 family. However, the entire structural assembly and molecular details have not been elucidated to date. Here, we present a cryo-EM structure of the CULLIN3
