Potato virus Y (PVY) infections often lead to altered numbers of host plant chloroplasts, as well as changes in morphology and inhibited photosynthesis. The multifunctional protein helper component-proteinase, HC-Pro, has been identified in PVY-infected leaf chloroplasts. We used yeast two-hybrid and bimolecular fluorescence complementation assays to demonstrate that HC-Pro can interact with the chloroplast division-related factor NtMinD in yeast and tobacco cells, respectively. In addition, we confirmed that residues 271 to 314 in NtMinD are necessary for its interaction with PVY HC-Pro in a yeast two-hybrid analysis using four NtMinD deletion mutants. These residues are necessary for the dimerization of NtMinD, which plays a vital role in chloroplast division. Thus, PVY HC-Pro may affect NtMinD activity by inhibiting the formation of NtMinD homodimers, and this may interfere with chloroplast division and contribute to changes in the numbers of chloroplast per cell observed in PVY-infected plants. 相似文献

Potato virus Y (PVY) is an important plant virus and causes great losses every year. Viral infection often leads to abnormal chloroplasts. The first step of chloroplast division is the formation of FtsZ ring (Z-ring), and the placement of Z-ring is coordinated by the Min system in both bacteria and plants. In our lab, the helper-component proteinase (HC-Pro) of PVY was previously found to interact with the chloroplast division protein NtMinD through a yeast two-hybrid screening assay and a bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) assay in vivo. Here, we further investigated the biological significance of the NtMinD/HC-Pro interaction. We purified the NtMinD and HC-Pro proteins using a prokaryotic protein purification system and tested the effect of HC-Pro on the ATPase activity of NtMinD in vitro. We found that the ATPase activity of NtMinD was reduced in the presence of HC-Pro. In addition, another important chloroplast division related protein, NtMinE, was cloned from the cDNA of Nicotiana tabacum. And the NtMinD/NtMinE interaction site was mapped to the C-terminus of NtMinD, which overlaps the NtMinD/HC-Pro interaction site. Yeast three-hybrid assay demonstrated that HC-Pro competes with NtMinE for binding to NtMinD. HC-Pro was previously reported to accumulate in the chloroplasts of PVY-infected tobacco and we confirmed this result in our present work. The NtMinD/NtMinE interaction is very important in the regulation of chloroplast division. To demonstrate the influence of HC-Pro on chloroplast division, we generated HC-Pro transgenic tobacco with a transit peptide to retarget HC-Pro to the chloroplasts. The HC-Pro transgenic plants showed enlarged chloroplasts. Our present study demonstrated that the interaction between HC-Pro and NtMinD interfered with the function of NtMinD in chloroplast division, which results in enlarged chloroplasts in HC-Pro transgenic tobacco. The HC-Pro/NtMinD interaction may cause the formation of abnormal chloroplasts in PVY-infected plants. 相似文献

The ubiquitin/26S proteasome system plays an essential role not only in maintaining protein turnover, but also in regulating many other plant responses, including plant–pathogen interactions. Previous studies highlighted different roles of the 20S proteasome in plant defense during virus infection, either indirectly through viral suppressor-mediated degradation of Argonaute proteins, affecting the RNA interference pathway, or directly through modulation of the proteolytic and RNase activity of the 20S proteasome, a component of the 20S proteasome, by viral proteins, affecting the levels of viral proteins and RNAs. Here we show that MG132, a cell permeable proteasomal inhibitor, caused an increase in papaya ringspot virus (PRSV) accumulation in its natural host papaya (Carica papaya). We also show that the PRSV HcPro interacts with the papaya homologue of the Arabidopsis PAA (α1 subunit of the 20S proteasome), but not with the papaya homologue of Arabidopsis PAE (α5 subunit of the 20S proteasome), associated with the RNase activity, although the two 20S proteasome subunits interacted with each other. Mutated forms of PRSV HcPro showed that the conserved KITC54 motif in the N-terminal domain of HcPro was necessary for its binding to PAA. Co-agroinfiltration assays demonstrated that HcPro expression mimicked the action of MG132, and facilitated the accumulation of bothtotal ubiquitinated proteins and viral/non-viral exogenous RNA in Nicotiana benthamiana leaves. These effects were not observed by using an HcPro mutant (KITS54), which impaired the HcPro – PAA interaction. Thus, the PRSV HcPro interacts with a proteasomal subunit, inhibiting the action of the 20S proteasome, suggesting that HcPro might be crucial for modulating its catalytic activities in support of virus accumulation. 相似文献

S100 proteins are small dimeric members of the EF-hand superfamily of Ca(2+) binding proteins thought to participate in mediating intracellular Ca(2+) signals by binding to and thereby regulating target proteins in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner. As dimer formation is crucial to S100 function, we applied a yeast two-hybrid approach in analyzing in vivo molecular aspects of S100 dimerization. We chose S100P, a member of the S100 family highly expressed in placenta, for detailed analysis and showed that S100P monomers strongly interact with one another but not with other S100 polypeptides, indicating that homodimer formation is obligatory for S100P. Analysis of the interaction of site-specific S100P mutants with the wild-type polypeptide or with other S100P mutant chains identifies conserved hydrophobic amino acid residues involved in mediating dimerization in vivo. Of these residues, F-15 is crucially important as a mutation to alanine abolishes dimerization even when the F15A S100P mutant polypeptide is allowed to interact with a wild-type chain. On the other hand, I-11, I-12, or F-89 need to be replaced by a less hydrophopic residue in both subunits for there to be a similar extent of interfere with dimerization. This proves that hydrophobic residues implicated through structural studies in S100 dimerization are involved in the dimer interaction in vivo and argues for a hierarchy of hydrophobic contacts stabilizing the dimer and thereby regulating S100 function. 相似文献

Intracellular degradation of many eukaryotic proteins requires their covalent ligation to ubiquitin. We previously identified a ubiquitin-dependent degradation pathway in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the DOA pathway. Independent work has suggested that a major mechanism of cellular proteolysis involves a large multisubunit protease(s) called the 20S proteasome. We demonstrate here that Doa3 and Doa5, two essential components of the DOA pathway, are subunits of the proteasome. Biochemical analyses of purified mutant proteasomes suggest functions for several conserved proteasome subunit residues. All detectable proteasome particles purified from doa3 or doa5 cells have altered physical properties; however, the mutant particles contain the same 14 different subunits as the wild-type enzyme, indicating that most or all yeast 20S proteasomes comprise a uniform population of hetero-oligomeric complexes rather than a mixture of particles of variable subunit composition. Unexpectedly, we found that the yeast Doa3 and Pre3 subunits are synthesized as precursors which are processed in a manner apparently identical to that of related mammalian proteasome subunits implicated in antigen presentation, suggesting that biogenesis of the proteasome particle is highly conserved between yeast and mammals. 相似文献

Proteasomes are multicatalytic complexes that function as the major proteolytic machinery in regulated protein degradation. The eukaryotic 20S proteasome proteolytic core structure comprises 14 different subunits: 7 alpha-type and 7 beta-type. DTS7 is a dominant temperature-sensitive (DTS) lethal mutation at 29 degrees that also acts as a recessive lethal at ambient temperatures. DTS7 maps to cytological position 71AB. Molecular characterization of DTS7 reveals that this is caused by a missense mutation in a beta-type subunit gene, beta2. A previously characterized DTS mutant, l(3)73Ai1, results from a missense mutation in another beta-type subunit gene, beta6. These two mutants share a very similar phenotype, show a strong allele-specific genetic interaction, and are rescued by the same extragenic suppressor, Su(DTS)-1. We propose that these mutants might act as "poison subunits," disrupting proteasome function in a dosage-dependent manner, and suggest how they may interact on the basis of the structure of the yeast 20S proteasome. 相似文献

An Arabidopsis gene homologous to mammalian and insect genes encoding the largest proteasome subunit
A gene encoding a protein with extensive homology to the largest subunit of the multicatalytic proteinase complex (proteasome) has been identified in Arabidopsis thaliana. This gene, referred to as AtPSM30, is entirely encompassed within a previously characterized radiation-induced deletion, which may thus provide the first example of a proteasome null mutation in a higher eukaryote. However, the growth rate and fertility of Arabidopsis plants do not appear to be significantly affected by this mutation, even though disruption experiments in yeast have shown that most proteasome subunits are essential. Analysis of mRNA levels in developing seedlings and mature plants indicates that expression of AtPSM30 is differentially regulated during development and is slightly induced in response to stress, as has been observed for proteasome genes in yeast, Drosophila, and mammals. Southern blot analysis indicates that the Arabidopsis genome contains numerous sequences closely related to AtPSM30, consistent with recent reports of at least two other proteasome genes in Arabidopsis. A comparison of the deduced amino acid sequences for all proteasome genes reported to date suggests that multiple proteasome subunits evolved in eukaryotes prior to the divergence of plants and animals. 相似文献

E3 ubiquitin (Ub) ligases play diverse roles in cellular regulation in eukaryotes. Three homologous AtRmas (AtRma1, AtRma2, and AtRma3) were recently identified as ER-localized Arabidopsis homologs of human RING membrane-anchor E3 Ub ligase. Here, auxin binding protein 1 (ABP1), one of the auxin receptors in Arabidopsis, was identified as a potential substrate of AtRma2 through a yeast two-hybrid assay. An in vitro pull-down assay confirmed the interaction of full-length AtRma2 with ABP1. AtRma2 was transiently expressed in tobacco (Nicotiana benthamiana) plants through an Agrobacterium-mediated infiltration method and bound ABP1 in vivo. In vitro ubiquitination assays revealed that bacterially-expressed AtRma2 ubiquitinated ABP1. ABP1 was poly-ubiquitinated in tobacco cells and its stability was significantly increased in the presence of MG132, a 26S proteasome inhibitor. This suggests that ABP1 is controlled by the Ub/26S proteasome system. Therefore, AtRma2 is likely involved in the cellular regulation of ABP1 expression levels. 相似文献

The human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) Tat protein was previously reported to compete the association of PA28 regulator with the alpha rings of the 20S proteasome and to inhibit its peptidase activity. However, the distinct interaction sites within the proteasome complex remained to be determined. Here we show that HIV-1 Tat binds to alpha4 and alpha7, six beta subunits of the constitutive 20S proteasome and the interferon-gamma-inducible subunits beta2i and beta5i. A Tat-proteasome interaction can also be demonstrated in vivo and leads to inhibition of proteasomal activity. This indicates that Tat can modulate or interfere with cellular proteasome function by specific interaction with distinct proteasomal subunits. 相似文献

Soybean mosaic virus (SMV), a member of the genus Potyvirus , is transmitted by aphids in a non-persistent manner. It has been well documented that the helper component-proteinase (HC-Pro) plays a role as a 'bridge' between virion particles and aphid stylets in the aphid transmission of potyviruses. Several motifs, including the KITC and PTK motifs on HC-Pro and the DAG motif on the coat protein (CP), have been found to be involved in aphid transmission. Previously, we have shown strong interaction between SMV CP and HC-Pro in a yeast two-hybrid system (YTHS). In this report, we further analysed this CP–HC-Pro interaction based on YTHS and an in vivo binding assay to identify crucial amino acid residues for this interaction. Through this genetic approach, we identified two additional amino acid residues (H256 on CP and R455 on HC-Pro), as well as G12 on the DAG motif, crucial for the CP–HC-Pro interaction. We introduced mutations into the identified residues using an SMV infectious clone and showed that these mutations affected the efficiency of aphid transmission of SMV. We also investigated the involvement of the PTK and DAG motifs in the CP–HC-Pro interaction and aphid transmission of SMV. Our results support the concept that physical interaction between CP and HC-Pro is important for potyviral aphid transmission. Based on the combination of our current results with previous findings, the possibility that aphid transmission may be regulated by more complex molecular interactions than the simple involvement of HC-Pro as a bridge is discussed. 相似文献

Stimulation of human DNA topoisomerase II activity by its direct association with the beta subunit of protein kinase CKII 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
DNA topoisomerase II copurifies with and is phosphorylated by protein kinase CKII. In this study, a yeast two-hybrid system was used to investigate the interaction between human topoisomerase II isozymes and CKII subunits. The two-hybrid test clearly showed that both topoisomerase IIalpha and IIbeta interact with the CKIIbeta, but not the CKIIalpha subunit. The two-hybrid test also demonstrated that topoisomerase IIbeta residues 1099-1263 and topoisomerase IIalpha residues 1078-1182 mediate the interaction with the CKIIbeta subunit, providing evidence that the leucine zipper motif and the major CKII-dependent phosphorylation sites of topoisomerase II are unnecessary for its physical binding to CKIIbeta. Furthermore, a DNA relaxation assay demonstrated that the CKII subunit enhances topoisomerase II activity by physical interaction with topoisomerase II. 相似文献

Proteasome disassembly and downregulation is correlated with viability during stationary phase 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
During prolonged starvation, yeast cells enter a stationary phase (SP) during which the synthesis of many proteins is dramatically decreased. We show that a parallel decrease in proteasome-dependent proteolysis also occurs. The reduction in proteolysis is correlated with disassembly of 26S proteasome holoenzymes into their 20S core particle (CP) and 19S regulatory particle (RP) components. Proteasomes are reassembled, and proteolysis resumes prior to cell cycle reentry. Free 20S CPs are found in an autoinhibited state in which the N-terminal tails from neighboring alpha subunits are anchored by an intricate lattice of interactions blocking the channel that leads into the 20S CPs. By deleting channel gating residues of CP alpha subunits, we generated an "open channel" proteasome that exhibits faster rates of protein degradation both in vivo and in vitro, indicating that gating contributes to regulation of proteasome activity. This open channel mutant is delayed in outgrowth from SP and cannot survive following prolonged starvation. In summary, we have found that the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway can be subjected to global downregulation, that the proteasome is a target of this regulation, and that proteasome downregulation is linked to survival of SP cells. Maintaining high viability during SP is essential for evolutionary fitness, which may explain the extreme conservation of channel gating residues in eukaryotic proteasomes. 相似文献

The eukaryotic 26S proteasome plays a central role in ubiquitin-dependent intracellular protein metabolism. The multimeric holoenzyme is composed of two major subcomplexes, known as the 20S proteolytic core particle and the 19S regulatory particle (RP). The RP can be further dissected into two multisubunit complexes, the lid and the base complex. The lid complex shares striking similarities with another multiprotein complex, the COP9 signalosome. Several subunits of both complexes contain the characteristic PCI domain, a structural motif important for complex assembly. The COP9 signalosome was shown to act as a versatile regulator in numerous pathways. To help define the molecular interactions of the signalosome during Drosophila development, we performed a yeast two-hybrid screen to identify proteins that physically interact with subunit 2 of the complex, namely Alien/CSN2. Here, we report that Drosophila Rpn6, a non-ATPase subunit of the RP lid complex, interacts with Alien/CSN2 via its PCI domain. The temporal and spatial expression patterns of Rpn6 and alien/CSN2 overlap on a large scale during development providing additional evidence for their interaction in vivo. Analyses of an Rpn6 P element insertion mutant and newly generated Rpn6 alleles reveal that Rpn6 is essential for Drosophila development. 相似文献

Immunoproteasomes and standard proteasomes assemble by alternative pathways that bias against the formation of certain "mixed" proteasomes. Differences between beta subunit propeptides contribute to assembly specificity and an assembly chaperone, proteassemblin, may be involved via differential propeptide interactions. We investigated possible mechanisms of biased proteasome assembly and the role of proteassemblin by identifying protein-protein interactions among human 20S proteasome subunits and proteassemblin using a yeast two-hybrid interaction assay. Forty-one interactions were detected, including five involving proteassemblin and contiguous beta subunits, which suggests that proteassemblin binds to preproteasomes via a beta subunit surface. Interaction between proteassemblin and beta5, but not beta5i, suggests that proteassemblin may be involved in the propeptide-dependent differential incorporation of these subunits. Interactions between proteassemblin and beta1, beta1i, and beta7 suggest that proteassemblin may regulate preproteasome dimerization via interactions with the C-termini of these subunits, which in the mature 20S structure extend to contact opposing beta subunit rings. 相似文献

Proper assembly of the 26 S proteasome is required to efficiently degrade polyubiquitinated proteins. Many proteasome subunits contain the proteasome-COP9-initiation factor (PCI) domain, thus raising the possibility that the PCI domain may play a role in mediating proteasome assembly. We have previously characterized the PCI protein Yin6, a fission yeast ortholog of the mammalian Int6 that has been implicated in breast oncogenesis, and demonstrated that it binds and regulates the assembly of the proteasome. In this study, we isolated another PCI proteasome subunit, Rpn7, as a high copy suppressor that rescued the proteasome defects in yin6 null cells. To better define the function of the PCI domain, we aligned protein sequences to identify a conserved leucine residue that is present in nearly all known PCI domains. Replacing it with aspartate in yeast Rpn7, Yin6, and Rpn5 inactivated these proteins, and mutant human Int6 mislocalized in HeLa cells. Rpn7 and Rpn5 bind Rpn9 with high affinity, but their mutant versions do not. Our data suggest that this leucine may interact with several hydrophobic amino acid residues to influence the spatial arrangement either within the N-terminal tandem alpha-helical repeats or between these repeats and the more C-terminal winged helix subdomain. Disruption of such an arrangement in the PCI domain may substantially inactivate many PCI proteins and block their binding to other proteins. 相似文献

Decline of proteasome activity has been reported in mammals, flies and yeasts during aging. In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the reduction of proteolysis in stationary phase is correlated with disassembly of the 26S proteasomes into their 20S and 19S subcomplexes. However a recent report showed that upon entry into the stationary phase, proteasome subunits massively re-localize from the nucleus into mobile cytoplasmic structures called proteasome storage granules (PSGs). Whether proteasome subunits in PSG are assembled into active complexes remains an open question that we addressed in the present study. We showed that a particular mutant of the RPN11 gene (rpn11-m1), encoding a proteasome lid subunit already known to exhibit proteasome assembly/stability defect in vitro, is unable to form PSGs and displays a reduced viability in stationary phase. Full restoration of long-term survival and PSG formation in rpn11-m1 cells can be achieved by the expression in trans of the last 45 amino acids of the C-terminal domain of Rpn11, which was moreover found to co-localize with PSGs. In addition, another rpn11 mutant leading to seven amino acids change in the Rpn11 C-terminal domain, which exhibits assembled-26S proteasomes, is able to form PSGs but with a delay compared to the wild type situation. Altogether, our findings indicate that PSGs are formed of fully assembled 26S proteasomes and suggest a critical role for the Rpn11 protein in this process. 相似文献

Ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis is mediated by the proteasome. To understand the structure and function of the human 26S proteasome, we cloned complete ORFs of 32 human proteasome subunits and conducted a yeast two-hybrid analysis of their interactions with each other. We observed that there are 114 interacting-pairs in the human 26S proteasome. About 10% (11/114) of these interacting-pairs was confirmed by the GST-pull down analysis. Among these observed interacting subunits, 58% (66/114) are novel and the rest 42% (48/114) has been reported previously in human or in other species. We observed new interactions between the 19S regulatory particle and the beta-rings of the 20S catalytic particle and therefore proposed a modified model of the 26S proteasome. 相似文献

The ubiquitin system recognizes degradation signals of protein substrates through E3-E2 ubiquitin ligases, which produce a substrate-linked multi-ubiquitin chain. Ubiquitinated substrates are degraded by the 26S proteasome, which consists of the 20S protease and two 19S particles. We previously showed that UBR1 and UFD4, two E3 ligases of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, interact with specific proteasomal subunits. Here we advance this analysis for UFD4 and show that it interacts with RPT4 and RPT6, two subunits of the 19S particle. The 201-residue amino-terminal region of UFD4 is essential for its binding to RPT4 and RPT6. UFD4(DeltaN), which lacks this N-terminal region, adds ubiquitin to test substrates with apparently wild-type activity, but is impaired in conferring short half-lives on these substrates. We propose that interaction of a targeted substrate with the 26S proteasome involves contacts of specific proteasomal subunits with the substrate-bound ubiquitin ligase, with the substrate-linked multi-ubiquitin chain and with the substrate itself. This multiple-site binding may function to slow down dissociation of the substrate from the proteasome and to facilitate the unfolding of substrate through ATP-dependent movements of the chaperone subunits of the 19S particle. 相似文献
