[The regulation of ubiquitination in milk fat synthesis in bovine].

Ubiquitination signaling is the main pathway of protein degradation in eukaryotic cells. Ubiquitin-proteasome system degrades the ubiquitinated cytoplasmic proteins and lysosome pathway mainly degrades the ubiquitinated membrane proteins. Previous studies have shown that ubiquitination signaling plays a critical role in fatty acids synthesis. In the process of fatty acids import, disruption of ubiquitination could prevent the degradation of fatty acid transport proteins, thereby promoting fatty acids import and milk fat synthesis in bovine primary mammary epithelial cells. In this review, we summarize the signal transduction and regulation mechanism of ubiquitination signaling in milk fat synthesis, which may provide references and new ideas for future research on milk fat traits in dairy cows.
