TRAF6-mediated ubiquitination of APPL1 enhances hepatic actions of insulin by promoting the membrane translocation of Akt
Keyword(s):
The adaptor protein APPL1 undergoes ubiquitination upon insulin stimulation in a TRAF6-dependent manner. Abrogation of APPL1 ubiquitination blocks insulin-evoked membrane localization of the APPL1–Akt complex, leading to impaired insulin actions on Akt activation and suppression of hepatic glucose production.
