Human Fas associated factor 1 (hFAF1) is a pro-apoptotic scaffolding protein containing ubiquitin-associating (UBA), ubiquitin like 1 and 2 (UBL1, UBL2), and ubiquitin regulatory X (UBX) domains. hFAF1 interacts with polyubiquitinated proteins via its N-terminal UBA domain and with valosin containing protein (VCP) via its C-terminal UBX domain. Overexpression of hFAF1 or its N-terminal UBA domain significantly increases cell death by increasing the degradation of polyubiquitinated proteins. In this study, we investigated whether hFAF1, whose expression level is reduced in cervical cancer, plays a role in tumor formation. We found that HeLa cells overexpressing full-length hFAF1 or the hFAF1 UBA domain alone, significantly suppressed the anchorage independent tumor growth in soft agar colony formation, increased cell death, and activated JNK and caspase 3. Employing UBA-specific tandem immunoprecipitation, we identified moieties specifically interacting with UBA domain of hFAF1, and found that polyubiquitinated Hsp70s are recruited to UBA domain. We also demonstrated that hFAF1 overexpression promotes Hsp70 degradation via the proteasome. We further found that mutating the UBA domain (I41N), as well as knocking down hFAF1 with specific RNAi, abolishs its ability to increase the proteasomal degradation of Hsp70. These findings suggest that hFAF1 inhibits tumor formation by increasing the degradation of Hsp70 mediated via its UBA domain. 相似文献

Valosin-containing protein is a multi-ubiquitin chain-targeting factor required in ubiquitin-proteasome degradation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The ubiquitin-proteasome (Ub-Pr) degradation pathway regulates many cellular activities, but how ubiquitinated substrates are targeted to the proteasome is not understood. We have shown previously that valosin-containing protein (VCP) physically and functionally targets the ubiquitinated nuclear factor kappaB inhibitor, IkappaBalpha to the proteasome for degradation. VCP is an abundant and a highly conserved member of the AAA (ATPases associated with a variety of cellular activities) family. Besides acting as a chaperone in membrane fusions, VCP has been shown to have a role in a number of seemingly unrelated cellular activities. Here we report that loss of VCP function results in an inhibition of Ub-Pr-mediated degradation and an accumulation of ubiquitinated proteins. VCP associates with ubiquitinated proteins through the direct binding of its amino-terminal domain to the multi-ubiquitin chains of substrates. Furthermore, its N-terminal domain is required in Ub-Pr-mediated degradation. We conclude that VCP is a multi-ubiquitin chain-targeting factor that is required in the degradation of many Ub-Pr pathway substrates, and provide a common mechanism that underlies many of the functions of VCP. 相似文献

Fas-associated factor 1 (FAF1) is a ubiquitin receptor containing multiple ubiquitin-related domains including ubiquitin-associated (UBA), ubiquitin-like (UBL) 1, UBL2, and ubiquitin regulatory X (UBX). We previously showed that N-terminal UBA domain recognizes Lys48-ubiquitin linkage to recruit polyubiquitinated proteins and that a C-terminal UBX domain interacts with valosin-containing protein (VCP). This study shows that FAF1 interacts only with VCP complexed with Npl4-Ufd1 heterodimer, a requirement for the recruitment of polyubiquitinated proteins to UBA domain. Intriguingly, VCP association to C-terminal UBX domain regulates ubiquitin binding to N-terminal UBA domain without direct interaction between UBA and UBX domains. These interactions are well characterized by structural and biochemical analysis. VCP-Npl4-Ufd1 complex is known as the machinery required for endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation. We demonstrate here that FAF1 binds to VCP-Npl4-Ufd1 complex via UBX domain and polyubiquitinated proteins via UBA domain to promote endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation. 相似文献

Fas‐associated factor (FAF)‐1 is a multidomain protein that was first identified as a member of the Fas death‐inducing signaling complex, but later found to be involved in various biological processes. Although the exact mechanisms are not clear, FAF1 seems to play an important role in cancer, asbestos‐induced mesotheliomas, and Parkinson's disease. It interacts with polyubiquitinated proteins, Hsp70, and p97/VCP (valosin‐containing protein), in addition to the proteins of the Fas‐signaling pathway. We have determined the crystal structure of the ubiquitin‐associated domain of human FAF1 (hFAF1‐UBA) and examined its interaction with ubiquitin and ubiquitin‐like proteins using nuclear magnetic resonance. hFAF1‐UBA revealed a canonical three‐helical bundle that selectively binds to mono‐ and di‐ubiquitin (Lys48‐linked), but not to SUMO‐1 (small ubiquitin‐related modifier 1) or NEDD8 (neural precursor cell expressed, developmentally down‐regulated 8). The interaction between hFAF1‐UBA and di‐ubiquitin involves hydrophobic interaction accompanied by a transition in the di‐ubiquitin conformation. These results provide structural insight into the mechanism of polyubiquitin recognition by hFAF1‐UBA. 相似文献

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-associated protein degradation requires the dislocation of selected substrates from the ER to the cytosol for proteolysis via the ubiquitin-proteasome system. The AAA ATPase Cdc48 (known as p97 or VCP in mammals) has a crucial, but poorly understood role in this transport step. Here, we show that Ubx2 (Sel1) mediates interaction of the Cdc48 complex with the ER membrane-bound ubiquitin ligases Hrd1 (Der3) and Doa10. The membrane protein Ubx2 contains a UBX domain that interacts with Cdc48 and an additional UBA domain. Absence of Ubx2 abrogates breakdown of ER proteins but also that of a cytosolic protein, which is ubiquitinated by Doa10. Intriguingly, our results suggest that recruitment of Cdc48 by Ubx2 is essential for turnover of both ER and non-ER substrates, whereas the UBA domain of Ubx2 is specifically required for ER proteins only. Thus, a complex comprising the AAA ATPase, a ubiquitin ligase and the recruitment factor Ubx2 has a central role in ER-associated proteolysis. 相似文献

Crystal structure of the ubiquitin-associated (UBA) domain of p62 and its interaction with ubiquitin

p62/SQSTM1/A170 is a multimodular protein that is found in ubiquitin-positive inclusions associated with neurodegenerative diseases. Recent findings indicate that p62 mediates the interaction between ubiquitinated proteins and autophagosomes, leading these proteins to be degraded via the autophagy-lysosomal pathway. This ubiquitin-mediated selective autophagy is thought to begin with recognition of the ubiquitinated proteins by the C-terminal ubiquitin-associated (UBA) domain of p62. We present here the crystal structure of the UBA domain of mouse p62 and the solution structure of its ubiquitin-bound form. The p62 UBA domain adopts a novel dimeric structure in crystals, which is distinctive from those of other UBA domains. NMR analyses reveal that in solution the domain exists in equilibrium between the dimer and monomer forms, and binding ubiquitin shifts the equilibrium toward the monomer to form a 1:1 complex between the UBA domain and ubiquitin. The dimer-to-monomer transition is associated with a structural change of the very C-terminal end of the p62 UBA domain, although the UBA fold itself is essentially maintained. Our data illustrate that dimerization and ubiquitin binding of the p62 UBA domain are incompatible with each other. These observations reveal an autoinhibitory mechanism in the p62 UBA domain and suggest that autoinhibition plays a role in the function of p62. 相似文献

Budding yeast Dsk2 is a family of UbL-UBA proteins that can interact with both polyubiquitin and the proteasome, and is thereby thought to function as a shuttle protein in the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. Here we show that Dsk2 can homodimerize via its C-terminal UBA domain in the absence of ubiquitin. Dsk2 mutants defective in the UBA domain do not dimerize and do not bind polyubiquitin. The expression of Dsk2 UBA mutants fails to restore the growth defect caused by DSK2 disruption although that of wild-type Dsk2 can restore the defect. These results suggest that Dsk2 homodimerization via the UBA domain plays a role in regulating polyubiquitin binding in the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. 相似文献

Selective macroautophagy (autophagy) of ubiquitinated protein is implicated as a compensatory mechanism of the ubiquitin-proteasome system. p62/SQSTM1 is a key molecule managing autophagic clearance of polyubiquitinated proteins. However, little is known about mechanisms controlling autophagic degradation of polyubiquitinated proteins. Here, we show that the specific phosphorylation of p62 at serine 403 (S403) in its ubiquitin-associated (UBA) domain increases the affinity between UBA and polyubiquitin chain, resulting in efficiently targeting polyubiquitinated proteins in "sequestosomes" and stabilizing sequestosome structure as a cargo of ubiquitinated proteins for autophagosome entry. Casein kinase 2 (CK2) phosphorylates S403 of p62 directly. Furthermore, CK2 overexpression or phosphatase inhibition reduces the formation of inclusion bodies of the polyglutamine-expanded huntingtin exon1 fragment in a p62-dependent manner. We propose that phosphorylation of p62 at S403 regulates autophagic clearance of ubiquitinated proteins and protein aggregates that are poorly degraded by proteasomes. 相似文献

Ubiquitin (Ub) is a small protein (8 kDa) found in all eukaryotic cells, which is conjugated covalently to numerous proteins, tagging them for recognition by a downstream effector. One of the best characterized functions of Ub is targeting proteins for either selective degradation by the proteasome, or for bulk degradation by the autophagy-lysosome system. The executing arm of the UPS is the 26S proteasome, a large multicatalytic complex. While much is known about the synthesis and assembly of the proteasome's subunits, the mechanism(s) underlying its removal has remained obscure, similar to that of many other components of the ubiquitin-proteasome system. Our recent study identified autophagy as the degrading mechanism for the mammalian proteasome, mostly under stress conditions. Amino acid starvation induces specific ubiquitination of certain 19S proteasomal subunits that is essential for its binding to SQSTM1/p62, the protein that shuttles the ubiquitinated proteasome to the autophagic machinery. SQSTM1 delivers ubiquitinated substrates for proteasomal degradation via interaction of its PB1 domain with the 19S proteasomal subunit PSMD4/Rpn10, in situations where the proteasome serves as a “predator." In contrast, we found that the UBA domain of SQSTM1 is essential for its interaction with the ubiquitinated proteasome and its delivery to the autophagosome, rendering the proteasome a “prey.” 相似文献

Endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) is a protein quality control mechanism that eliminates unwanted proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) through a ubiquitin-dependent proteasomal degradation pathway. gp78 is a previously described ER membrane-anchored ubiquitin ligase (E3) involved in ubiquitination of ER proteins. AAA ATPase (ATPase associated with various cellular activities) p97/valosin-containing protein (VCP) subsequently dislodges the ubiquitinated proteins from the ER and chaperones them to the cytosol, where they undergo proteasomal degradation. We now report that gp78 physically interacts with p97/VCP and enhances p97/VCP-polyubiquitin association. The enhanced association correlates with decreases in ER stress-induced accumulation of polyubiquitinated proteins. This effect is abolished when the p97/VCP-interacting domain of gp78 is removed. Further, using ERAD substrate CD3delta, gp78 consistently enhances p97/VCP-CD3delta binding and facilitates CD3delta degradation. Moreover, inhibition of endogenous gp78 expression by RNA interference markedly increases the levels of total polyubiquitinated proteins, including CD3delta, and abrogates VCP-CD3delta interactions. The gp78 mutant with deletion of its p97/VCP-interacting domain fails to increase CD3delta degradation and leads to accumulation of polyubiquitinated CD3delta, suggesting a failure in delivering ubiquitinated CD3delta for degradation. These data suggest that gp78-p97/VCP interaction may represent one way of coupling ubiquitination with retrotranslocation and degradation of ERAD substrates. 相似文献

Herein, we demonstrate that the ubiquitin-associated (UBA) domain of sequestosome 1/p62 displays a preference for binding K63-polyubiquitinated substrates. Furthermore, the UBA domain of p62 was necessary for aggregate sequestration and cell survival. However, the inhibition of proteasome function compromised survival in cells with aggregates. Mutational analysis of the UBA domain reveals that the conserved hydrophobic patch MGF as well as the conserved leucine in helix 2 are necessary for binding polyubiquitinated proteins and for sequestration-aggregate formation. We report that p62 interacts with the proteasome by pull-down assay, coimmunoprecipitation, and colocalization. Depletion of p62 levels results in an inhibition of ubiquitin proteasome-mediated degradation and an accumulation of ubiquitinated proteins. Altogether, our results support the hypothesis that p62 may act as a critical ubiquitin chain-targeting factor that shuttles substrates for proteasomal degradation. 相似文献

The 97-kDa valosin-containing protein (p97-VCP) plays a role in a wide variety of cellular activities, many of which are regulated by the ubiquitin-proteasome (Ub-Pr)-mediated degradation pathway. We previously demonstrated that VCP binds to multi-ubiquitin chains and may act as a molecular chaperone that targets the ubiquitinated substrates to the proteasome for degradation. In this report, we show that although the ubiquitin chain-binding activity, carried out by the N-terminal 200 residues (N domain), is necessary for the degradation of proteasome substrates, it is not sufficient. Using in vitro degradation assays, we demonstrated that the entire VCP molecule, consisting of the N domain and two ATPase domains D1 and D2, is required for mediating the Ub-Pr degradation. The ATPase activity of VCP requires Mg(2+), and is stimulated by high temperature. Under optimal conditions, VCP hydrolyzes ATP with a K(m) of approximately 0.33 mm and a V(max) of approximately 0.52 nmol P(i) min(-1) microg(-1). At a physiological temperature, mutation in D2 significantly inhibits the ATPase activity, while that in D1 has little effect. Interestingly, mutations in D1, but not D2, abolish the heat-stimulated ATPase activity. Thus, we provide the first demonstration that the ATPase activity of VCP is required for mediating the Ub-Pr degradation, that D2 accounts for the major ATPase activity, and that D1 contributes to the heat-induced activity. 相似文献

Degradation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae G(1) cyclins Cln1 and Cln2 is mediated by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway and involves the SCF E3 ubiquitin-ligase complex containing the F-box protein Grr1 (SCF(Grr1)). Here we identify the domain of Cln2 that confers instability and describe the signals in Cln2 that result in binding to Grr1 and rapid degradation. We demonstrate that mutants of Cln2 that lack a cluster of four Cdc28 consensus phosphorylation sites are highly stabilized and fail to interact with Grr1 in vivo. Since one of the phosphorylation sites lies within the Cln2 PEST motif, a sequence rich in proline, aspartate or glutamate, serine, and threonine residues found in many unstable proteins, we fused various Cln2 C-terminal domains containing combinations of the PEST and the phosphoacceptor motifs to stable reporter proteins. We show that fusion of the Cln2 domain to a stabilized form of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor Sic1 (Delta N-Sic1), a substrate of SCF(Cdc4), results in degradation in a phosphorylation-dependent manner. Fusion of Cln2 degradation domains to Delta N-Sic1 switches degradation of Sic1 from SCF(Cdc4) to SCF(Grr1). Delta N-Sic1 fused with a Cln2 domain containing the PEST motif and four phosphorylation sites binds to Grr1 and is unstable and ubiquitinated in vivo. Interestingly, the phosphoacceptor domain of Cln2 binds to Grr1 but is not ubiquitinated and is stable. In summary, we have identified a small transferable domain in Cln2 that can redirect a stabilized SCF(Cdc4) target for SCF(Grr1)-mediated degradation by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. 相似文献

Mitochondrial quality control by the ubiquitin-proteasome system 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Mitochondria perform multiple functions critical to the maintenance of cellular homoeostasis and their dysfunction leads to disease. Several lines of evidence suggest the presence of a MAD (mitochondria-associated degradation) pathway that regulates mitochondrial protein quality control. Internal mitochondrial proteins may be retrotranslocated to the OMM (outer mitochondrial membrane), multiple E3 ubiquitin ligases reside at the OMM and inhibition of the proteasome causes accumulation of ubiquitinated proteins at the OMM. Reminiscent of ERAD [ER (endoplasmic reticulum)-associated degradation], Cdc48 (cell division cycle 42)/p97 is recruited to stressed mitochondria, extracts ubiquitinated proteins from the OMM and presents ubiquitinated proteins to the proteasome for degradation. Recent research has provided mechanistic insights into the interaction of the UPS (ubiquitin-proteasome system) with the OMM. In yeast, Vms1 [VCP (valosin-containing protein) (p97)/Cdc48-associated mitochondrial-stress-responsive 1] protein recruits Cdc48/p97 to the OMM. In mammalian systems, the E3 ubiquitin ligase parkin regulates the recruitment of Cdc48/p97 to mitochondria, subsequent mitochondrial protein degradation and mitochondrial autophagy. Disruption of the Vms1 or parkin systems results in the hyper-accumulation of ubiquitinated proteins at mitochondria and subsequent mitochondrial dysfunction. The emerging MAD pathway is important for the maintenance of cellular and therefore organismal viability. 相似文献

The budding yeast UbL-UBA protein Dsk2 has a UbL domain at its N-terminus and a UBA domain at its C-terminus, and thus functions as a shuttle protein in the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. In this report we describe two isoforms of Xenopus Dsk2-related protein, XDRP1L and XDRP1S. Difference of the two proteins in sequence was that the UbL domain of XDRP1S lacks 15 residues in the middle part of that of XDRP1L. Both XDRP1L and XDRP1S were expressed in Xenopus eggs. XDRP1L and XDRP1S bound to polyubiquitinated proteins via their UBA domains. XDRP1L also bound to the proteasome via its UbL domain, whereas the XDRP1S UbL domain was less likely to bind to the proteasome. Instead, XDRP1S not XDRP1L bound to monomeric cyclin A and prevented its degradation. The existence of such Dsk2-isoforms in Xenopus eggs suggests that the shuttling function via the UbL-UBA protein Dsk2 is evolutionally conserved across species. 相似文献

Ubiquitin-like (UBL)-ubiquitin-associated (UBA) proteins such as Rad23 and Dsk2 mediate the delivery of polyubiquitinated proteins to the proteasome in the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. We show here that budding yeast peptidyl-tRNA hydrolase 2 (Pth2), which was previously recognized as a peptidyl-tRNA hydrolase, is a UBL domain-binding protein that participates in the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. Pth2 bound to the UBL domain of both Rad23 and Dsk2. Pth2 also interacted with polyubiquitinated proteins through the UBA domains of Rad23 and Dsk2. Pth2 overexpression caused an accumulation of polyubiquitinated proteins and inhibited the growth of yeast. Ubiquitin-dependent degradation was accelerated in the pth2Delta mutant and was retarded by overexpression of Pth2. Pth2 inhibited the interaction of Rad23 and Dsk2 with the polyubiquitin receptors Rpn1 and Rpn10 on the proteasome. Furthermore, Pth2 function involving UBL-UBA proteins was independent of its peptidyl-tRNA hydrolase activity. These results suggest that Pth2 negatively regulates the UBL-UBA protein-mediated shuttling pathway in the ubiquitin-proteasome system. 相似文献

p62/Sequestosome-1 (p62/SQSTM1, hereafter referred to as p62) is a major adaptor that allows ubiquitinated proteins to be degraded by autophagy, and Atg8 homologs are required for p62-mediated autophagic degradation, but their relationship is still not understood in Lepidopteran insects. Here it is clearly demonstrated that the silkworm homolog of mammalian p62, Bombyx mori p62 (Bmp62), forms p62 bodies depending on its Phox and Bem1p (PB1) and ubiquitin-associated (UBA) domains. These two domains are associated with Bmp62 binding to ubiquitinated proteins to form the p62 bodies, and the UBA domain is essential for the binding, but Bmp62 still self-associates without the PB1 or UBA domain. The p62 bodies in Bombyx cells are enclosed by BmAtg9-containing membranes and degraded via autophagy. It is revealed that the interaction between the Bmp62 AIM motif and BmAtg8 is critical for the autophagic degradation of the p62 bodies. Intriguingly, we further demonstrate that lipidation of BmAtg8 is required for the Bmp62-mediated complete degradation of p62 bodies by autophagy. Our results should be useful in future studies of the autophagic mechanism in Lepidopteran insects. 相似文献

Macroautophagy/autophagy can be a selective degradative process via the utilization of various autophagic receptor proteins. Autophagic receptors selectively recognize ubiquitinated cargoes and deliver them to phagophores, the precursors to autophagosomes, for their degradation. For example, SQSTM1/p62 directly binds to ubiquitinated protein aggregates via its UBA domain and sequesters them into inclusion bodies via its PB1 domain. SQSTM1also interacts with phagophores via its LC3-interacting (LIR) motif. However, a regulatory mechanism for autophagic receptors is not yet understood. 相似文献

The UBA domain is a motif found in a variety of proteins, some of which are associated with the ubiquitin-proteasome system. We describe the isolation of a fission-yeast gene, mud1+, which encodes a UBA domain containing protein that is able to bind multi-ubiquitin chains. We show that the UBA domain is responsible for this activity. Two other proteins containing this motif, the fission-yeast homologues of Rad23 and Dsk2, are also shown to bind multi-ubiquitin chains via their UBA domains. These two proteins are implicated, along with the fission-yeast Pus1(S5a/Rpn10) subunit of the 26 S proteasome, in the recognition and turnover of substrates by this proteolytic complex. 相似文献
