Praja1 E3 ubiquitin ligase promotes skeletal myogenesis through degradation of EZH2 upon p38α activation

In skeletal muscle progenitors, EZH2 maintains myogenic genes in a repressed state, but during differentiation its levels are reduced via unknown mechanisms. Here the authors show that during myogenesis, p38α kinase phosphorylates EZH2 and targets it for degradation by the ubiquitin ligase PRAJA1.
