Twice primed: cyclin E is phosphorylated and isomerized before being ubiquitinated

Mol Cell. 2006 Jul 21;23(2):149-50. doi: 10.1016/j.molcel.2006.07.002.

Abstract

Targeting proteins for irreversible degradation must be under tight control and is often regulated at the level of substrate-receptor binding. But does a protein really need to be marked twice with two different modifications, first phosphorylation and then isomerization, to bind its receptor, as van Drogen et al. (2006) show for cyclin E?
