The formation of amyloid fibers is usually associated with aging and neurodegeneration. In this issue of Molecular Cell, Ji et al. (2019) demonstrate that the deubiquitinase Otu coalesces into amyloid-like fibers to enhance its activity and ensure its optimum biological function.
淀粉样纤维的形成通常与衰老和神经退行性变有关。在本期《分子细胞》中,Ji 等人(2019 年)证明去泛素化酶 Otu 聚集形成类似淀粉样的纤维,以增强其活性并确保其最佳的生物学功能。
