摘要：

A putative ubiquitin protein ligase (E3-CaM) which cooperates with UBC4 in selectively ubiquitinating calmodulin has been partially purified from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Ca2+ was required for this activity and monoubiquitinated calmodulin was the main product of the reaction. The apparent K(m) of E3-CaM for calmodulin was approximately 1 muM which is of the same order of magnitude as the concentration of calmodulin in yeast cells. Proteins which are good substrates for other E3s (E3alpha or E3-R) were not ubiquitinated by E3-CaM. Lower but significant activities of E3-CaM were observed when UBC1 replaced UBC4.
