MSK1, activated downstream of the Ras-Raf-MEK-ERK pathway, directly phosphorylates TRIM7, stimulating its E3 ubiquitin ligase activity. Activated TRIM7 then mediates K63-linked ubiquitination of the AP-1 co-activator RACO-1, stabilizing RACO-1 protein and promoting AP-1-dependent gene expression. |

Crystal structures of TRIM7 B30.2 domain in complex with viral 2C peptides reveal that a C-terminal glutamine residue is the primary determinant for TRIM7 substrate recognition. This 'Gln/C-degron' mechanism is shared by norovirus, SARS-CoV-2, and cellular substrates; TRIM7 triggers ubiquitination and degradation of these substrates. |

The B30.2 domain of TRIM7 forms a positively charged binding pocket that recognizes a 'U'-shaped Gln/C-degron; the four C-terminal residues of substrates are critical, with the terminal glutamine as the principal determinant. Crystal structures of TRIM7B30.2 with multiple peptides established a Gln/C-degron pathway. |

TRIM7's PRYSPRY domain captures substrates with a C-terminal helix terminating in a hydrophobic residue followed by glutamine ('helix-ΦQ' degron). This explains TRIM7's ability to restrict Coxsackievirus and norovirus, as viral 3C protease processing generates C-terminal glutamines on non-structural proteins. Cellular glycogenin also harbors this degron motif. |
