NEDD8 (Neural precursor cell expressed developmentally downregulated protein 8) is a ubiquitin-like protein involved in post-translational modification through a process termed neddylation. This pathway is critical for regulating the activity of Cullin-RING ubiquitin ligases (CRLs), the largest family of E3 ubiquitin ligases that mediate proteasomal degradation of substrate proteins. Neddylation involves the covalent attachment of NEDD8 to target proteins, primarily Cullins, enhancing CRL complex assembly and enzymatic activity. Dysregulation of NEDD8 signaling is implicated in cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and immune disorders, making it a therapeutic target of interest.
Recombinant NEDD8 proteins are engineered using expression systems like *E. coli* or mammalian cells to ensure high purity and bioactivity. These proteins retain the conserved ubiquitin-like fold and C-terminal diglycine motif required for conjugation. Recombinant NEDD8 enables in vitro studies of neddylation mechanisms, including interactions with E1 (activating), E2 (conjugating), and E3 (ligase) enzymes, as well as de-neddylation processes mediated by the COP9 signalosome. They are essential tools for screening inhibitors (e.g., MLN4924/Pevonedistat, a NEDD8-activating enzyme inhibitor in clinical trials) or developing assays to study CRL-dependent substrate turnover.
Additionally, recombinant NEDD8 facilitates structural studies (e.g., X-ray crystallography, NMR) to resolve molecular interactions and dynamics. Its applications extend to understanding pathological conditions linked to aberrant protein degradation, such as tumorigenesis, and exploring targeted therapies. The development of recombinant NEDD8 underscores its importance in both basic research and drug discovery, offering insights into cellular regulation and therapeutic intervention strategies.
