Interrogating specific cellular activities often entails the dissection of posttranslational modifications or functional redundancy conferred by protein families, which demands more sophisticated research tools than simply eliminating a specific gene product by gene targeting or RNA interference. We have developed a novel methodology that involves engineering a single SCF βTrCP-based ubiquitin ligase that is capable of not only simultaneously targeting the entire family of ErbB receptor tyrosine kinases for ubiquitination and degradation, but also selectively recruiting only activated ErbBs. The engineered SCF βTrCP ubiquitin ligase effectively blocked ErbB signaling and attenuated oncogenicity in breast cancer cells, yet had little effect on the survival and growth of non-cancerous breast epithelial cells. Therefore, engineering ubiquitin ligases offers a simple research tool to dissect the specific traits of tumorigenic protein families, and provides a rapid and feasible means to expand the dimensionality of drug discovery by assessing protein families or posttranslational modifications as potential drug targets.
