The ubiquitin E3 ligase TRAF6 exacerbates pathological cardiac hypertrophy via TAK1-dependent signalling

TRAF6 is a ubiquitin E3 ligase regulating a number of biological processes. Here the authors show that ROS, generated during pathological cardiac stress, induces TRAF6 auto-ubiquitination and activation, promoting its interaction with and ubiquitination of TAK1 that contributes to development of car...
