LUBAC
Linear ubiquitin chain assembly complex (LUBAC) is a multi-protein complex and the only known E3 ubiquitin ligase able to conjugate ubiquitin in a head-to-tail manner to generate linear (M1-linked) polyubiquitin chains. The complex is currently known to be composed of three proteins: heme-oxidized IRP2 ubiquitin ligase 1 (HOIL-1), HOIL-1-interacting protein (HOIP), and Shank-associated RH domain-interacting protein (SHARPIN){{Cite journal |last1=Kirisako |first1=Takayoshi |last2=Kamei |first2=Kiyoko |last3=Murata |first3=Shigeo |last4=Kato |first4=Michiko |last5=Fukumoto |first5=Hiromi |last6=Kanie |first6=Masato |last7=Sano |first7=Soichi |last8=Tokunaga |first8=Fuminori |last9=Tanaka |first9=Keiji |last10=Iwai |first10=Kazuhiro |date=2006-10-18 |title=A ubiquitin ligase complex assembles linear polyubiquitin chains |journal=The EMBO Journal |volume=25 |issue=20 |pages=4877–4887 |doi=10.1038/sj.emboj.7601360 |issn=0261-4189 |pmc=1618115 |pmid=17006537}}, {{Cite journal |last1=Gerlach |first1=Björn |last2=Cordier |first2=Stefanie M. |last3=Schmukle |first3=Anna C. |last4=Emmerich |first4=Christoph H. |last5=Rieser |first5=Eva |last6=Haas |first6=Tobias L. |last7=Webb |first7=Andrew I. |last8=Rickard |first8=James A. |last9=Anderton |first9=Holly |last10=Wong |first10=Wendy W.-L. |last11=Nachbur |first11=Ueli |last12=Gangoda |first12=Lahiru |last13=Warnken |first13=Uwe |last14=Purcell |first14=Anthony W. |last15=Silke |first15=John |date=March 2011 |title=Linear ubiquitination prevents inflammation and regulates immune signalling |url=https://www.nature.com/articles/nature09816 |journal=Nature |language=en |volume=471 |issue=7340 |pages=591–596 |doi=10.1038/nature09816 |pmid=21455173 |s2cid=4384869 |issn=1476-4687|url-access=subscription }},.{{Cite journal |last1=Ikeda |first1=Fumiyo |last2=Deribe |first2=Yonathan Lissanu |last3=Skånland |first3=Sigrid S. |last4=Stieglitz |first4=Benjamin |last5=Grabbe |first5=Caroline |last6=Franz-Wachtel |first6=Mirita |last7=van Wijk |first7=Sjoerd J.
