Uniform integrability of stopped submartingales The following is well-known and useful :

Lemma. Let $(\Omega,\mathcal{F},\mathbb{P})$ be a probabiliy space, and let $\mathcal{X}=(X_i)_{i\in I}\in L^1(\mathbb{P})^I$ be a uniformly integrable family. Then the family of all conditional expectations of $\mathcal{X}$ :
  $$\Big(\mathbf{E}(X_i\mid\mathcal{G})\Big)_{i\in I,~\mathcal{G}~\equiv~\text{sigma-subalgebras of }\mathcal{F}}$$
  is uniformly integrable.

Hence, if $(\mathcal{F}_t)_{t\geq 0}$ is a (complete, right continuous) filtration, it follows from the stopping time theorem that for any right continuous, uniformly integrable martingale  $(M_t)_{t\geq 0}$, the family
$$(M_T)_{\,T~\equiv~\text{stopping time}}$$
is uniformly integrable. Indeed, for any stopping time $T$, $M_T=\mathbf{E}(X_\infty\mid\mathcal{F}_T)$, where $X_\infty$ is the almost sure and $L^1$ limit of $X_t$, $t\to+\infty$.

Question :
Suppose $(S_t)_{t\geq 0}$ is a right continuous, uniformly integrable submartingale. Is
$$(S_T)_{\,T~\equiv~\text{stopping time}}$$
uniformly integrable ?
 A: In general, the family of random variables $(S_T)_T$ fails to be uniformly integrable. Let's introduce the following definitions:

Definition Let $(X_t)_{t \geq 0}$ be a jointly measurable stochastic process. If the family $$\{X_{\tau}; \tau < \infty \, \, \text{stopping time}\}$$ is uniformly integrable, then we say that $(X_t)_{t \geq 0}$ is of class (D). If $$\{X_{\tau}; \tau \leq M \, \, \text{stopping time}\}$$ is uniformly integrable for any constant $M>0$, then $(X_t)_{t \geq 0}$ is of class (DL).

As you already pointed out, any uniformly integrable martingale with càdlàg sample paths is of class (D). Let me mention that these notions play an important role for the Doob-Meyer decomposition of (sub)martingales.
For submartingales there is the following statement (see Lemma 5 here):

Lemma A càdlàg submartingale is of class (DL) if and only if its negative part is of class (DL).

In particular, any non-negative càdlàg submartingale is of class (DL). Moreover, one can show the following statement (see Lemma 4):

Lemma: A non-negative càdlàg submartingale is of class (D) if, and only if, it is uniformly integrable.

The equivalence does, in general, not hold if we drop the assumption of non-negativity.
Example Let $(B_t)_{t \geq 0}$ be a three-dimensional Brownian motion started at $B_0 =( 1,0,0)$. If we set $u(x) := \frac{1}{|x|}$, then $M_t := u(B_t)$ is a non-negative supermartingale. Note that $(M_t)_{t \geq 0}$ has continuous sample paths with probability 1 since $$\mathbb{P}(\exists t>0: B_t=0)=0$$ (recall that $(B_t)_t$ is a three-dimensional Brownian motion; in dimension $d=1$ this statement is plainly wrong). It is possible to show that $(M_t)_{t \geq 0}$ is uniformly integrable but not of class (D), see the very end of the paper (1). Consequently, the process
$$N_t := -M_t$$
is a uniformly integrable submartingale which is not of class (D).

There is the following equivalent characterization (see Chapter 2 in (2)):

Theorem: Let $(X_t)_{t \geq 0}$ be a right-continuous submartingale. Then:

*

*$(X_t)_{t \geq 0}$ is of class (DL) if, and only if, there exists a right-continuous martingale $(M_t)_{t \geq 0}$ and a non-decreasing predictable process $(A_t)_{t \geq 0}$ such that $X=M+A$.

*$(X_t)_{t \geq 0}$ is of class (D) if, and only if, it admits a Doob-Meyer decomposition $X=M+A$ for a uniformly integrable right-continuous martingale $(M_t)_{t \geq 0}$ and a non-decreasing predictable uniformly integrable process $(A_t)_{t \geq 0}$.
