Drosophila IAP1-mediated ubiquitylation controls activation of the initiator caspase DRONC independent of protein degradation.

Ubiquitylation targets proteins for proteasome-mediated degradation and plays important roles in many biological processes including apoptosis. However, non-proteolytic functions of ubiquitylation are also known. In Drosophila, the inhibitor of apoptosis protein 1 (DIAP1) is known to ubiquitylate th...
