from a Cullin-RING ligase <b>dimer</b> ([[3dpl]]) to the <b>trimer</b> resulting from NEDD8ylation (covalent addition of the NEDD8 ubiquitin-like chain to Lys724 of Cullin; [[3dqv]]). NEDD8 binds and rotates the C-terminal domain of Cullin, releasing the folded RING domain from its Cullin-binding site. RING remains attached to Cullin by the RING N-terminus which remains embedded in Cullin. ''The contraction and re-expansion of the C-terminal domain during rotation is an artifact of the morphing algorithm.'' | from a Cullin-RING ligase <b>dimer</b> ([[3dpl]]) to the <b>trimer</b> resulting from NEDD8ylation (covalent addition of the NEDD8 ubiquitin-like chain to Lys724 of Cullin; [[3dqv]]).
