Ubiquitylation of MLKL at lysine 219 positively regulates necroptosis-induced tissue injury and pathogen clearance

Ubiquitylation of MLKL at lysine 219 positively regulates necroptosis-induced tissue injury and pathogen clearance

Necroptosis is a form of cell death characterized by membrane rupture via MLKL oligomerization, although mechanistic details remain unclear. Here, the authors show that MLKL ubiquitylation of K219 facilitates high-order membrane assembly and subsequent rupture, promoting cytotoxicity.
