The Highwire Ubiquitin Ligase Promotes Axonal Degeneration by Tuning Levels of Nmnat Protein
Highwire, a conserved axonal E3 ubiquitin ligase, regulates the initiation of axonal degeneration after injury in Drosophila by regulating the levels of the NAD+ biosynthetic enzyme, Nmnat, and the Wnd kinase.
