Under nutrient limiting conditions, cytoplasmic components are randomly sequestered into double-membrane vesicles called autophagosomes and delivered to the lysosome/vacuole for degradation and recycling. In the last few years, however, it has been observed that several cytoplasmic components such as organelles, pathogens or specific protein complexes can also be selectively targeted for degradation by autophagy-related pathways (reviewed in reference 1). We have recently shown that in S. cerevisiae, mature ribosomes are subject to such selective degradation by autophagy under starvation conditions, in a process that we termed ‘ribophagy’.2 By genetic screening, we found that selective degradation of 60S large ribosomal subunits depends on the ubiquitin protease Ubp3 and its cofactor Bre5, implying that ribophagy is regulated by ubiquitin-dependent steps. Interestingly, several ubiquitinated proteins accumulate in ribosome fractions isolated from ubp3? cells, suggesting that the regulation of ribophagy by ubiquitin may be direct. Here we present data on a potential role of the ubiquitin ligase Rsp5 as a positive regulator of ribophagy, and discuss the possible involvement of ubiquitin as a signaling molecule in this process.Addendum to: Kraft C, Deplazes A, Sohrmann M, Peter M.

Proteins in eukaryotic cells are continually being degraded to amino acids either by the ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS) or by the autophagic-lysosomal pathway. The breakdown of proteins by these 2 degradative pathways involves totally different enzymes that function in distinct subcellular compartments. While most studies of the UPS have focused on the selective ubiquitination and breakdown of specific cell proteins, macroautophagy/autophagy is a more global nonselective process. Consequently, the UPS and autophagy were traditionally assumed to serve distinct physiological functions and to be regulated in quite different manners. However, recent findings indicate that protein breakdown by these 2 systems is coordinately regulated by important physiological stimuli. The activation of MTORC1 by nutrients and hormones rapidly suppresses proteolysis by both proteasomes and autophagy, which helps promote protein accumulation, whereas in nutrient-poor conditions, MTORC1 inactivation causes the simultaneous activation of these 2 degradative pathways to supply the deprived cells with a source of amino acids. Also this selective breakdown of key anabolic proteins by the UPS upon MTORC1 inhibition can help limit growth-related processes (e.g., cholesterol biosynthesis). Thus, the collaboration of these 2 degradative systems, together with the simultaneous control of protein translation by MTORC1, provide clear advantages to the organism in both growth and starvation conditions. 相似文献

Selective degradation of intracellular targets, such as misfolded proteins and damaged organelles, is an important homeostatic function that autophagy has acquired in addition to its more general role in restoring the nutrient balance during stress and starvation. Although the exact mechanism underlying selection of autophagic substrates is not known, ubiquitination is a candidate signal for autophagic degradation of misfolded and aggregated proteins. p62/SQSTM1 was the first protein shown to bind both target-associated ubiquitin (Ub) and LC3 conjugated to the phagophore membrane, thereby effectively acting as an autophagic receptor for ubiquitinated targets. Importantly, p62 not only mediates selective degradation but also promotes aggregation of ubiquitinated proteins that can be harmful in some cell types. Is p62 the only autophagic receptor for selective autophagy? Looking for proteins that interact with ATG8 family proteins, we identified NBR1 (neighbor of BRCA1 gene 1) as an additional LC3- and Ub-binding protein. NBR1 is degraded by autophagy depending on its LC3-interacting region (LIR) but does not strictly require p62 for this process. Like p62, NBR1 accumulates and aggregates when autophagy is inhibited and is a part of pathological inclusions. We propose that NBR1 together with p62 promotes autophagic degradation of ubiquitinated targets and simultaneously regulates their aggregation when autophagy becomes limited. 相似文献

Autophagic degradation of ribosomes is promoted by nutrient starvation and inactivation of target of rapamycin complex 1 (TORC1). Here we show that selective autophagic degradation of ribosomes (called ribophagy) after TORC1 inactivation requires the specific autophagy receptor Atg11. Rim15 protein kinase upregulated ribophagy, while it downregulated non-selective degradation of ribosomes. 相似文献

The target of rapamycin (TOR) pathway is the central regulator of cell growth in eukaryotes. Inhibition of TOR by rapamycin elicits changes in translation attributed mainly to altered translation initiation and repression of the synthesis of new ribosomes. Using quantitative analysis of rRNA, we found that the number of existing ribosomes present in a Saccharomyces cerevisiae culture during growth in rich medium rapidly decreases by 40 to 60% when the cells are treated with rapamycin. This process is not appreciably affected by a suppression of autophagy, previously implicated in degradation of ribosomes in eukaryotes upon starvation. Yeast cells deficient in the exosome function or lacking its cytoplasmic Ski cofactors show an abnormal pattern of rRNA degradation, particularly in the large ribosomal subunit, and accumulate rRNA fragments after rapamycin treatment and during diauxic shift. The exosome and Ski proteins are thus important for processing of rRNA decay intermediates, although they are probably not responsible for initiating rRNA decay. The role of cytoplasmic nucleases in rapamycin-induced rRNA degradation suggests mechanistic parallels of this process to nutrient-controlled ribosome turnover in prokaryotes. We propose that ribosome content is regulated dynamically in eukaryotes by TOR through both ribosome synthesis and the cytoplasmic turnover of mature ribosomes. 相似文献

We have previously shown that stress-induced protein degradation requires a functional ubiquitin-activating enzyme and the autophagic-lysosomal pathway. In this study, we examined the occurrence of ubiquitin-protein conjugates that form during nutrient starvation. Kidney and liver epithelial cells respond to nutrient stress by enhancing autophagy and protein degradation. We have shown that this degradative response was more dramatic in nondividing cultures. In addition, the onset of autophagy was suppressed by pactamycin, cycloheximide, and puromycin. We observed an accumulation of ubiquitinated proteins coincident with the degradative response to amino acid starvation. The stress-induced protein ubiquitination was not affected by cycloheximide, indicating that protein synthesis was not required. The ubiquitinated proteins were localized to the cytosol and subcellular fractions enriched with autophagosomes and lysosomes. The incorporation of the ubiquitinated proteins into autolysosomes was dramatically reduced by 3-methyladenine, an inhibitor of autophagy. The evidence suggests that ubiquitinated proteins are sequestered by autophagy for degradation. We next set out to identify those primary ubiquitinated proteins at 60 kDa and 68 kDa. Polyclonal antibodies were prepared against these proteins that had been immunopurified from rat liver lysosomes. The antibodies prepared against those 68 kDa proteins also recognized a 40 kDa protein in cytosolic fractions. Internal amino acid sequences obtained from two cyanogen bromide fragments of this 40 kDa protein were shown to be identical to sequences in liver fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase B. Anti-Ub68 antibodies recognized purified aldolase A and aldolase B. Conversely, antibodies prepared against aldolase B recognized the 40 kDa aldolase as well as four to five high molecular weight forms, including a 68 kDa protein. Finally, we have shown that the degradation of aldolase B was enhanced during amino acid and serum starvation. This degradation was suppressed by chloroquine and 3-methyladenine, suggesting that aldolase B was being degraded within autolysosomes. We propose that aldolase B is ubiquitinated within the cytosol and then transported into autophagosomes and autolysosomes for degradation during nutrient stress.

Upon starvation cells undergo autophagy, a cellular degradation pathway important in the turnover of whole organelles and long lived proteins. Starvation-induced protein degradation has been regarded as an unspecific bulk degradation process. We studied global protein dynamics during amino acid starvation-induced autophagy by quantitative mass spectrometry and were able to record nearly 1500 protein profiles during 36 h of starvation. Cluster analysis of the recorded protein profiles revealed that cytosolic proteins were degraded rapidly, whereas proteins annotated to various complexes and organelles were degraded later at different time periods. Inhibition of protein degradation pathways identified the lysosomal/autophagosomal system as the main degradative route. Thus, starvation induces degradation via autophagy, which appears to be selective and to degrade proteins in an ordered fashion and not completely arbitrarily as anticipated so far. 相似文献

Target of rapamycin complex 1 (TORC1) promotes biogenesis and inhibits the degradation of ribosomes in response to nutrient availability. To ensure a basal supply of ribosomes, cells are known to preserve a small pool of dormant ribosomes under nutrient‐limited conditions. However, the regulation of these dormant ribosomes is poorly characterized. Here, we show that upon inhibition of yeast TORC1 by rapamycin or nitrogen starvation, the ribosome preservation factor Stm1 mediates the formation of nontranslating, dormant 80S ribosomes. Furthermore, Stm1‐bound 80S ribosomes are protected from proteasomal degradation. Upon nutrient replenishment, TORC1 directly phosphorylates and inhibits Stm1 to reactivate translation. Finally, we find that SERBP1, a mammalian ortholog of Stm1, is likewise required for the formation of dormant 80S ribosomes upon mTORC1 inhibition in mammalian cells. These data suggest that TORC1 regulates ribosomal dormancy in an evolutionarily conserved manner by directly targeting a ribosome preservation factor. 相似文献

Protein synthesis across kingdoms involves the assembly of 70S (prokaryotes) or 80S (eukaryotes) ribosomes on the mRNAs to be translated. 70S ribosomes are protected from degradation in bacteria during stationary growth or stress conditions by forming dimers that migrate in polysome profiles as 100S complexes. Formation of ribosome dimers in Escherichia coli is mediated by proteins, namely the ribosome modulation factor (RMF), which is induced in the stationary phase of cell growth. It is reported here a similar ribosomal complex of 110S in eukaryotic cells, which forms during nutrient starvation. The dynamic nature of the 110S ribosomal complex (mammalian equivalent of the bacterial 100S) was supported by the rapid conversion into polysomes upon nutrient-refeeding via a mechanism sensitive to inhibitors of translation initiation. Several experiments were used to show that the 110S complex is a dimer of nontranslating ribosomes. Cryo-electron microscopy visualization of the 110S complex revealed that two 80S ribosomes are connected by a flexible, albeit localized, interaction. We conclude that, similarly to bacteria, rat cells contain stress-induced ribosomal dimers. The identification of ribosomal dimers in rat cells will bring new insights in our thinking of the ribosome structure and its function during the cellular response to stress conditions.Key words: ribosome, translation, stress, starvation, polysome 相似文献

Autophagy and the ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS) mediate the degradation of cellular proteins. However, we are now realizing that autophagy can also be a selective process that degrades various organelles. Peter and co-workers discovered a selective autophagic pathway that targets ribosomes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This pathway, which they termed ribophagy, depends on Ubp3 ubiquitin protease and its partner Bre5. This is an important finding, because it suggests that the number of ribosomes can be adjusted to match the needs of the cell. 相似文献

Eukaryotes have two major intracellular protein degradation pathways, namely the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) and autophagy. Inhibition of proteasomal activities has been previously shown to induce autophagy, indicating a coordinated and complementary relationship between these two systems. However, little is known about the regulation of the UPS by autophagy. In this study, we showed for the first time that proteasomes were activated in response to pharmacological inhibition of autophagy as well as disruption of autophagy-related genes by RNA interference under nutrient-deficient conditions in cultured human colon cancer cells. The induction was evidenced by the increased proteasomal activities and the upregulation of proteasomal subunits, including the proteasome β5 subunit, PSMB5. Co-inhibition of the proteasome and autophagy also synergistically increased the accumulation of polyubiquitinated proteins. Collectively, our findings suggest that proteasomes are activated in a compensatory manner for protein degradation upon autophagy inhibition. Our studies unveiled a novel regulatory mechanism between the two protein degradation pathways. 相似文献

Damaged or aggregated proteins and organelles accumulate with age and contribute to various age-related pathologies including Alzheimer, Parkinson or Huntington diseases. In eukaryotic cells, there are 2 major pathways for degradation of the cytoplasm: The ubiquitin–proteasome system (UPS) and macroautophagy/autophagy. Both pathways can share the characteristic of initiating the process by ubiquitination of the substrate, but they utilize different ubiquitin receptors. In a paper described in a punctum in this issue, Lu et al. used the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae to demonstrate that the decision to use a particular pathway is made through a mechanism that depends on the receptors rather than the specific type of substrate ubiquitination. 相似文献

Autophagy is a protein degradation process in which cells recycle cytoplasmic contents when subjected to environmental stress conditions or during certain stages of development. Upon the induction of autophagy, a double membrane autophagosome forms around cytoplasmic components and delivers them to the vacuole or lysosome for degradation. In plants, autophagy has been shown previously to be induced during abiotic stresses including nutrient starvation and oxidative stress. In this paper, we demonstrate the induction of autophagy in high salt and osmotic stress conditions, concomitant with the upregulation of expression of an Arabidopsis thaliana autophagy-related gene AtATG18a. Autophagy-defective RNAi-AtATG18a plants are more sensitive to salt and drought conditions than wild-type plants, demonstrating a role for autophagy in the response to these stresses. NADPH oxidase inhibitors block autophagy induction upon nutrient starvation and salt stress, but not during osmotic stress, indicating that autophagy can be activated by NADPH oxidase-dependent or -independent pathways. Together our results indicate that diverse environmental stresses can induce autophagy and that autophagy is regulated by distinct signaling pathways in different conditions. 相似文献

Stu1p is a microtubule-associated protein required for spindle assembly. In this article we show that the temperature-sensitive stu1-5 allele is synthetically lethal in combination with ubp3, gim1-gim5, and kem1 mutations. The primary focus of this article is on the stu1-5 ubp3 interaction. Ubp3 is a deubiquitination enzyme and a member of a large family of cysteine proteases that cleave ubiquitin moieties from protein substrates. UBP3 is the only one of 16 UBP genes in yeast whose loss is synthetically lethal with stu1-5. Stu1p levels in stu1-5 cells are several-fold lower than the levels in wild-type cells and the stu1-5 temperature sensitivity can be rescued by additional copies of stu1-5. These results indicate that the primary effect of the stu1-5 mutation is to make the protein less stable. The levels of Stu1p are even lower in ubp3Delta stu1-5 cells, suggesting that Ubp3p plays a role in promoting protein stability. We also found that ubp3Delta produces growth defects in combination with mutations in other genes that decrease protein stability. Overall, these data support the idea that Ubp3p has a general role in the reversal of protein ubiquitination. 相似文献

The functions of Lys(63)-linked polyubiquitin chains are poorly understood, as are the enzymes that specifically generate Lys(63)-linked conjugates. Rsp5 is a HECT (homologous to E6AP C terminus) ubiquitin ligase involved in numerous processes, and an associated deubiquitinating enzyme, Ubp2, modulates its activity. A dramatic increase in Lys(63)-linked conjugates was observed in ubp2Delta cells. The formation of these was Rsp5-dependent, and ubp2Delta phenotypes could be suppressed by prevention of formation of Lys(63) conjugates. Cell wall integrity was impaired in rsp5-1 cells and in cells defective in Lys(63)-polyubiquitination, as assayed by calcofluor white sensitivity, and ubp2Delta and rup1Delta mutants suppressed the calcofluor white sensitivity of rsp5-1. A large fraction of the Lys(63) conjugates in ubp2Delta cells bound to Rsp5, and a proteomics approach was used to identify Rsp5 substrates subject to Ubp2 regulation. Two closely related proteins, Csr2 and Ecm21, were among the identified proteins. Both were efficiently Lys(63)-polyubiquitinated by Rsp5 and deubiquitinated by Ubp2. Together, these results indicate that Ubp2 modulates Lys(63)-polyubiquitination of Rsp5 substrates in vivo, including ubiquitination of two newly identified Rsp5 substrates. 相似文献
