Met1-linked linear ubiquitination (M1-Ubi) is catalyzed by linear ubiquitin chain assembly complex (LUBAC). Here the authors show that Ago2 protein is M1-Ubi modified by LUBAC complex under hypoxia condition leading to less association of miRNA target mRNAs to Ago2 protein and de-repression of miRNA targets.
