The ISG15/USP18 pathway modulates cellular functions and is important for the host innate immune response to chronic viral infections such as Hepatitis C Virus (HCV). Interferon stimulated gene 15 (ISG15) was the first ubiquitin-like protein modifier identified. As in ubiquitination, ISG15 conjugates to target proteins (ISGylation) through the sequential enzymatic action of activating E1, conjugating E2, and ligating E3 enzymes. ISGylation modulates signal transduction pathways and host anti-viral response. The ISGylation process is reversible through the action of an ISG15 protease, USP18. Ubiquitin-like specific protease 18 (USP18) has functions that are both ISG15-dependent and ISG15-independent; the importance of the ISG15/USP18 pathway to chronic HCV infection is illustrated by the consistent finding of increased levels of ISG15 and USP18 in the liver tissue of patients who do not respond to interferon-based treatments. Mechanistically, HCV seems to exploit the ISG15/USP18 pathway to promote viral replication and evade innate anti-viral immune responses. 相似文献

Ubiquitin (Ub) and interferon-stimulated gene product 15 (ISG15) reversibly conjugate to proteins and mediate important innate antiviral responses. The ovarian tumor (OTU) domain represents a superfamily of predicted proteases found in eukaryotic, bacterial, and viral proteins, some of which have Ub-deconjugating activity. We show that the OTU domain-containing proteases from nairoviruses and arteriviruses, two unrelated groups of RNA viruses, hydrolyze Ub and ISG15 from cellular target proteins. This broad activity contrasts with the target specificity of known mammalian OTU domain-containing proteins. Expression of a viral OTU domain-containing protein antagonizes the antiviral effects of ISG15 and enhances susceptibility to Sindbis virus infection in vivo. We also show that viral OTU domain-containing proteases inhibit NF-kappaB-dependent signaling. Thus, the deconjugating activity of viral OTU proteases represents a unique viral strategy to inhibit Ub- and ISG15-dependent antiviral pathways. 相似文献

Ebola virus budding is mediated by two proline-rich motifs, PPxY and PTAP, within the viral matrix protein VP40. We have previously shown that a Nedd4-like protein BUL1, but not Nedd4, positively regulates budding of type D retrovirus Mason-Pfizer monkey virus (J. Yasuda, E. Hunter, M. Nakao, and H. Shida, EMBO Rep. 3:636-640, 2002). Here, we report that the cellular E3 ubiquitin ligase Nedd4 regulates budding of VP40-induced virus-like particles (VLPs) through interaction with the PPxY motif. Mutation of the active site cysteine (C894A), resulting in abrogation of ubiquitin ligase activity, impaired the function of Nedd4 on budding. In addition, the WW domains of Nedd4 are essential for binding to the viral PPxY motif, and a small fragment of Nedd4 containing only WW domains significantly inhibited Ebola VLP budding in a dominant-negative manner. Our findings suggest that the viruses containing PPxY as an L-domain motif specifically use E3 in the process of virus budding. We also examined the effects of overexpression of Tsg101 and its mutant. As expected, Tsg101 enhanced VP40-induced VLP release, and TsgDeltaC, which lacks its C-terminal half, inhibited VLP release. These results indicate that Nedd4, together with Tsg101, plays an important role in Ebola virus budding. 相似文献

Ubiquitin (Ub) ligases (E3s) catalyze the attachment of Ub chains to target proteins and thereby regulate a wide array of signal transduction pathways in eukaryotes. In HECT-type E3s, Ub first forms a thioester intermediate with a strictly conserved Cys in the C-lobe of the HECT domain and is then ligated via an isopeptide bond to a Lys residue in the substrate or a preceding Ub in a poly-Ub chain. To date, many key aspects of HECT-mediated Ub transfer have remained elusive. Here, we provide structural and functional insights into the catalytic mechanism of the HECT-type ligase Huwe1 and compare it to the unrelated, K63-specific Smurf2 E3, a member of the Nedd4 family. We found that the Huwe1 HECT domain, in contrast to Nedd4-family E3s, prioritizes K6- and K48-poly-Ub chains and does not interact with Ub in a non-covalent manner. Despite these mechanistic differences, we demonstrate that the architecture of the C-lobe ~ Ub intermediate is conserved between Huwe1 and Smurf2 and involves a reorientation of the very C-terminal residues. Moreover, in Nedd4 E3s and Huwe1, the individual sequence composition of the Huwe1 C-terminal tail modulates ubiquitination activity, without affecting thioester formation. In sum, our data suggest that catalysis of HECT ligases hold common features, such as the β-sheet augmentation that primes the enzymes for ligation, and variable elements, such as the sequence of the HECT C-terminal tail, that fine-tune ubiquitination activity and may aid in determining Ub chain specificity by positioning the substrate or acceptor Ub. 相似文献

UBP43 shows significant homology to well characterized ubiquitin-specific proteases and previously was shown to hydrolyze ubiquitin-beta-galactosidase fusions in Escherichia coli. In our assays, the activity of UBP43 toward Ub fusions was undetectable in vitro directing us to investigate the possibility of Ub-like proteins such as SUMO, Nedd8, and ISG15 as probable substrates. We consequently demonstrate that UBP43 can efficiently cleave only ISG15 fusions including native ISG15 conjugates linked via isopeptide bonds. In addition to commonly used methods we introduce a new experimental design featuring ISG15-UBP43 fusion self-processing. Deletion of the UBP43 gene in mouse leads to a massive increase of ISG15 conjugates in tissues indicating that UBP43 is a major ISG15-specific protease. UBP43 is the first bona fide ISG15-specific protease reported. Both ISG15 and UBP43 genes are known to be strongly induced by interferon, genotoxic stress, and viral infection. We postulate that UBP43 is necessary to maintain a critical cellular balance of ISG15-conjugated proteins in both healthy and stressed organisms. 相似文献

Modification of proteins by ubiquitin (Ub)-like proteins (UBLs) plays an important role in many cellular processes, including cell cycle progression, nuclear transport, and autophagy. Protein modification occurs via UBL-conjugating and -deconjugating enzymes, which presumably exert a regulatory function by determining the conjugation status of the substrate proteins. To target and identify UBL-modifying enzymes, we produced Nedd8, ISG15, and SUMO-1 in Escherichia coli and equipped them with a C-terminal electrophilic trap (vinyl sulfone [VS]) via an intein-based method. These C-terminally modified UBL probes reacted with purified UBL-activating (E1), -conjugating (E2), and -deconjugating enzymes in a covalent fashion. Modified UBLs were radioiodinated and incubated with cell lysates prepared from mouse cell lines and tissues to allow visualization of polypeptides reactive with individual UBL probes. The cell type- and tissue-specific labeling patterns observed for the UBL probes reflect distinct expression profiles of active enzymes, indicating tissue-specific functions of UBLs. We identify Ub C-terminal hydrolase L1 (UCH-L1) and DEN1/NEDP1/SENP8, in addition to UCH-L3, as proteases with specificity for Nedd8. The Ub-specific protease isopeptidase T/USP5 is shown to react with ISG15-VS. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the desumoylation enzyme SuPr-1 can be modified by SUMO-1-VS, a modification that is dependent on the SuPr-1 active-site cysteine. The UBL probes described here will be valuable tools for the further characterization of the enzymatic pathways that govern modification by UBLs. 相似文献

Nedd4 and Nedd4-2 are closely related HECT-type ubiquitin-protein ligases (E3) implicated in the regulation of a number of proteins and pathways. Given the close homology between these E3 enzymes it would be predicted that a conserved ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme (E2) specificity exists between the two proteins. However, E2 specificities for Nedd4 and Nedd4-2 are not well established. In the present studies we aimed at clarifying the E2-specificities of Nedd4 and Nedd4-2 using in vitro ubiquitination assays. We demonstrate strong substrate ubiquitination in the presence of UbcH5b by both Nedd4 and Nedd4-2. We also found that Ube2e3, an E2 previously shown to be used by Nedd4-2, is used less efficiently than UbcH5b. Our results suggest that for optimal ubiquitination Nedd4 and Nedd4-2 require the same E2 enzymes. 相似文献

Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) is one of several lethal viruses that encodes for a viral ovarian tumor domain (vOTU), which serves to cleave and remove ubiquitin (Ub) and interferon stimulated gene product 15 (ISG15) from numerous proteins involved in cellular signaling. Such manipulation of the host cell machinery serves to downregulate the host response and, therefore, complete characterization of these proteases is important. While several structures of the CCHFV vOTU protease have been solved, both free and bound to Ub and ISG15, few structural differences have been found and little insight has been gained as to the structural plasticity of this protease. Therefore, we have used NMR relaxation experiments to probe the dynamics of CCHFV vOTU, both alone and in complex with Ub, discovering a highly dynamic protease that exhibits conformational exchange within the same regions found to engage its Ub substrate. These experiments reveal a structural plasticity around the N-terminal regions of CCHFV vOTU, which are unique to vOTUs, and provide a rationale for engaging multiple substrates with the same binding site. 相似文献

Post-translational protein modification is an important strategy for the regulation of the cell proteome independent of the need for new gene expression. Ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like modifiers mediate the regulation of protein levels, signaling pathways, vesicular trafficking, and many other cellular processes through their covalent conjugation to proteins. Interferon stimulated gene 15 (ISG15) is a ubiquitin-like modifier induced by type I interferon. In addition to conjugating to potentially hundreds of target proteins, ISG15 can be found in an unconjugated form both inside of the cell and released from interferon stimulated cells into the extracellular environment. Due to its robust expression after type I interferon stimulation and the broad panel of proteins that it targets, ISG15 has drawn much attention as a potential regulator of the immune response and has been shown to mediate protection in a number of different viral infection models. Here we will review the current state of the field of ISG15, the viruses against which ISG15 mediates protection, and the mechanisms by which ISG15 exerts antiviral activity. 相似文献

ISG15 is an interferon (IFN)-alpha/beta-induced ubiquitin-like protein that is conjugated to cellular proteins during innate immune responses to viral and bacterial infections. A recent proteomics study identified 158 human proteins targeted for ISG15 conjugation, including the ISG15 E1 and E2 enzymes (Ube1L and UbcH8, respectively) and a HECT E3 enzyme, Herc5. Like the genes encoding Ube1L and UbcH8, expression of Herc5 was also induced by IFN-beta, suggesting that Herc5 might be a component of the ISG15 conjugation system. Consistent with this, small interfering RNAs targeting Herc5 had a dramatic effect on overall ISG15 conjugation in human cells, abrogating conjugation to the vast majority of ISG15 target proteins in vivo. In addition, co-transfection of plasmids expressing ISG15, Ube1L, UbcH8, and Herc5 resulted in robust ISG15 conjugation in non-IFN-treated cells, while the active-site cysteine mutant of Herc5 or a mutant lacking the RCC1 repeat region did not support ISG15 conjugation. These results demonstrate that Herc5 is required for conjugation of ISG15 to a broad spectrum of target proteins in human cells. 相似文献

The latent membrane protein (LMP) 2A of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is implicated in the maintenance of viral latency and appears to function in part by inhibiting B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling. The N-terminal cytoplasmic region of LMP2A has multiple tyrosine residues that upon phosphorylation bind the SH2 domains of the Syk tyrosine kinase and the Src family kinase Lyn. The LMP2A N-terminal region also has two conserved PPPPY motifs. Here we show that the PPPPY motifs of LMP2A bind multiple WW domains of E3 protein-ubiquitin ligases of the Nedd4 family, including AIP4 and KIAA0439, and demonstrate that AIP4 and KIAA0439 form physiological complexes with LMP2A in EBV-positive B cells. In addition to a C2 domain and four WW domains, these proteins have a C-terminal Hect catalytic domain implicated in the ubiquitination of target proteins. LMP2A enhances Lyn and Syk ubiquitination in vivo in a fashion that depends on the activity of Nedd4 family members and correlates with destabilization of the Lyn tyrosine kinase. These results suggest that LMP2A serves as a molecular scaffold to recruit both B-cell tyrosine kinases and C2/WW/Hect domain E3 protein-ubiquitin ligases. This may promote Lyn and Syk ubiquitination in a fashion that contributes to a block in B-cell signaling. LMP2A may potentiate a normal mechanism by which Nedd4 family E3 enzymes regulate B-cell signaling. 相似文献

The expression of the ubiquitin-like protein ISG15 and protein modification by ISG15 (ISGylation) are strongly activated by interferons. Accordingly, ISG15 expression and protein ISGylation are strongly activated upon viral and bacterial infections and during other stress conditions, suggesting important roles for the ISG15 system in innate immune responses. Here, we report the identification of the ubiquitin-protein isopeptide ligase (E3) EFP (estrogen-responsive finger protein) as the ISG15 E3 ligase for 14-3-3sigma protein. Like other known components of the protein ISGylation system (ISG15, UBE1L, UBP43, and UBC8), EFP is also an interferon-inducible protein. Expression of EFP small interfering RNA decreased the ISGylation of 14-3-3sigma in the 293T cell ISGylation system as well as in MCF-7 cells upon interferon treatment. Furthermore, the ISGylation enzyme activity of EFP was RING domain-dependent. These findings indicate that EFP is an ISG15 E3 ligase for 14-3-3sigma in vivo. The fact that both UBC8 and EFP are common components in the ubiquitin and ISG15 conjugation pathways suggests a mechanism whereby a limited set of enzymes accomplishes diverse post-translational modifications of their substrates in response to changes in environmental stimulations. 相似文献

随着有效的联合抗反转录病毒疗法(combination antiretroviral therapy,cART)的普及,人类免疫缺陷病毒(human immunodeficiency virus,HIV)感染者的生存期逐步延长。这一过程中,HIV感染者自身免疫反应对免疫系统功能的恢复也发挥了至关重要的作用。HIV感染激活干扰素信号通路,诱导干扰素刺激基因(interferon-stimulated gene,ISG)上调表达,从而发挥抗病毒作用。其中,类泛素蛋白ISG15在HIV感染者中显著上调,通过ISG化抑制HIV颗粒的出芽和释放;而HIV的非结构蛋白则通过干扰ISG化过程或结合干扰素信号通路关键分子,逆转ISG15对病毒的抑制作用。本文从ISG15的生物学特性、在不同细胞亚群中的表达、抗病毒功能及病毒逃逸机制等方面进行综述,为进一步解析ISG15在HIV感染中扮演的角色、探索如何获得以抗HIV感染宿主因子为契机的治疗策略提供了思路。 相似文献

The COP9 signalosome (CSN) is a platform for protein communication in eukaryotic cells. It has an intrinsic metalloprotease that removes the ubiquitin (Ub)-like protein Nedd8 from cullins. CSN-mediated deneddylation regulates culling-RING Ub ligases (CRLs) and controls ubiquitination of proteins involved in DNA damage response (DDR). CSN forms complexes with CRLs containing cullin 4 (CRL4s) which act on chromatin playing crucial roles in DNA repair, checkpoint control and chromatin remodeling. Furthermore, via associated kinases the CSN controls the stability of DDR effectors such as p53 and p27 and thereby the DDR outcome. DDR is a protection against cancer and deregulation of CSN function causes cancer making it an attractive pharmacological target. Here we review current knowledge on CSN function in DDR. 相似文献

Modification of BECN1 by ISG15 plays a crucial role in autophagy regulation by type I IFN/interferon
Daichao Xu Tao Zhang Juan Xiao Kezhou Zhu Ran Wei Zheming Wu Huyan Meng Ying Li Junying Yuan 《Autophagy》2015,11(4):617-628
ISG15 (ISG15 ubiquitin-like modifier), a ubiquitin-like protein, is one of the major type I IFN (interferon) effector systems. ISG15 can be conjugated to target proteins (ISGylation) via the stepwise action of E1, E2, and E3 enzymes. Conjugated ISG15 can be removed (deISGylated) from target proteins by USP18 (ubiquitin-specific peptidase 18). Here we investigated the role of deISGylation by USP18 in regulating autophagy and EGFR degradation in cells treated with type I IFNs. We show that type I IFN induced expression of ISG15 leads to ISGylation of BECN1 at Lys117, as well as Lys263, Lys265, and Lys266 which competes with Lys63 ubiquitination of BECN1. We demonstrate that ISGylation of BECN1 at Lys117, as well as Lys263, Lys265, and Lys266 serve an important role in negative regulation of intracellular processes including autophagy and EGFR degradation that are critically dependent upon the activity of class III PtdIns 3-kinase. Our studies provide fundamental new mechanistic insights into the innate immunity response implemented by type I IFNs. 相似文献

ISG15, the product of interferon (IFN)-stimulated gene 15, is the first identified ubiquitin-like protein, consisting of two ubiquitin-like domains. ISG15 is synthesized as a precursor in certain mammals and, therefore, needs to be processed to expose the C-terminal glycine residue before conjugation to target proteins. A set of three-step cascade enzymes, an E1 enzyme (UBE1L), an E2 enzyme (UbcH8), and one of several E3 ligases (e.g., EFP and HERC5), catalyzes ISG15 conjugation (ISGylation) of a specific protein. These enzymes are unique among the cascade enzymes for ubiquitin and other ubiquitin-like proteins in that all of them are induced by type I IFNs or other stimuli, such as exposure to viruses and lipopolysaccharide. Mass spectrometric analysis has led to the identification of several hundreds of candidate proteins that can be conjugated by ISG15. Some of them are type I IFN-induced proteins, such as PKR and RIG-I, and some are the key regulators that are involved in IFN signaling, such as JAK1 and STAT1, implicating the role of ISG15 and its conjugates in type I IFN-mediated innate immune responses. However, relatively little is known about the functional significance of ISG15 induction due to the lack of information on the consequences of its conjugation to target proteins. Here, we describe the recent progress made in exploring the biological function of ISG15 and its reversible modification of target proteins and thus in their implication in immune diseases. 相似文献
