B Cell Endosomal RAB7 Promotes TRAF6 K63 Polyubiquitination and NF-κB Activation for Antibody Class-Switching.

ABSTRACT: Upon activation by CD40 or TLR signaling, B lymphocytes activate NF-κB to induce activation-induced cytidine deaminase and, therefore, Ig class switch DNA recombination, as central to the maturation of the Ab and autoantibody responses. In this study, we show that NF-κB activation is boosted by colocalization of engaged immune receptors, such as CD40, with RAB7 small GTPase on mature endosomes, in addition to signals emanating from the receptors localized on the plasma membrane, in mouse B cells. In mature endosomes, RAB7 directly interacts with TRAF6 E3 ubiquitin ligase, which catalyzes K63 polyubiquitination for NF-κB activation. RAB7 overexpression in Cd19^+/creRosa26^{fl-STOP-fl-Rab7} mouse B cells upregulates K63 polyubiquitination activity of TRAF6, enhances NF-κB activation and activation-induced cytidine deaminase induction, and boosts IgG Ab and autoantibody levels. This, together with the extensive intracellular localization of CD40 and the strong correlation of RAB7 expression with NF-κB activation in mouse lupus B cells, shows that RAB7 is an integral component of the B cell NF-κB activation machinery, likely through interaction with TRAF6 for the assembly of "intracellular membrane signalosomes."

Immune regulator LGP2 targets Ubc13/UBE2N to mediate widespread interference with K63 polyubiquitination and NF-κB activation.

Project description:Lysine 63-linked polyubiquitin (K63-Ub) chains activate a range of cellular immune and inflammatory signaling pathways, including the mammalian antiviral response. Interferon and antiviral genes are triggered by TRAF family ubiquitin ligases that form K63-Ub chains. LGP2 is a feedback inhibitor of TRAF-mediated K63-Ub that can interfere with diverse immune signaling pathways. Our results demonstrate that LGP2 inhibits K63-Ub by association with and sequestration of the K63-Ub-conjugating enzyme, Ubc13/UBE2N. The LGP2 helicase subdomain, Hel2i, mediates protein interaction that engages and inhibits Ubc13/UBE2N, affecting control over a range of K63-Ub ligase proteins, including TRAF6, TRIM25, and RNF125, all of which are inactivated by LGP2. These findings establish a unifying mechanism for LGP2-mediated negative regulation that can modulate a variety of K63-Ub signaling pathways.

UBE2O negatively regulates TRAF6-mediated NF-?B activation by inhibiting TRAF6 polyubiquitination.

Project description:Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6) is a key regulator of the activation of transcription factor NF-?B by the interleukin-1 receptor (IL-1R)/Toll-like receptor (TLR) superfamily. Recruitment of TRAF6 to the receptor-associated IRAK1-IRAK4-MyD88 adaptor protein complex induces lysine 63 (K63) autopolyubiquitination of TRAF6, which leads to further recruitment of downstream regulators, such as TAB2/3 and TAK1, and subsequently triggers NF-?B activation. Here, we identified the putative E2 ubiquitin-conjugating (UBC) enzyme UBE2O as a novel negative regulator of TRAF6-dependent NF-?B signaling. We found that UBE2O binds to TRAF6 to inhibit its K63-polyubiquitination, and to prevent the activation of NF-?B by IL-1? and lipopolysaccharides (LPS). We further show that the inhibitory effect of UBE2O is independent of its carboxy-terminal UBC domain. In contrast, we found that UBE2O acts to disrupt the IL-1?-induced association of TRAF6 with MyD88. These results provide novel insight into the regulation of signaling by IL-1R/TLR and TRAF6.

K63 polyubiquitination and activation of mTOR by the p62-TRAF6 complex in nutrient-activated cells.

Project description:The ability of cells to respond to changes in nutrient availability is critical for an adequate control of metabolic homeostasis. Mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) is a central complex kinase in these processes. The signaling adaptor p62 binds raptor, and integral component of the mTORC1 pathway. p62 interacts with TNF receptor associated factor 6 (TRAF6) and is required for mTORC1 translocation to the lysosome and its subsequent activation. Here we show that TRAF6 is recruited to and activates mTORC1 through p62 in amino acid-stimulated cells. We also show that TRAF6 is necessary for the translocation of mTORC1 to the lysosomes and that the TRAF6-catalyzed K63 ubiquitination of mTOR regulates mTORC1 activation by amino acids. TRAF6, through its interaction with p62 and activation of mTORC1, modulates autophagy and is an important mediator in cancer cell proliferation. Interfering with the p62-TRAF6 interaction serves to modulate autophagy and nutrient sensing.

NOD2 downregulates colonic inflammation by IRF4-mediated inhibition of K63-linked polyubiquitination of RICK and TRAF6.

Project description:It is well established that polymorphisms of the caspase activation and recruitment domain 15 (CARD15) gene, a major risk factor in Crohn's disease (CD), lead to loss of nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain 2 (NOD2) function. However, a molecular explanation of how such loss of function leads to increased susceptibility to CD has remained unclear. In a previous study exploring this question, we reported that activation of NOD2 in human dendritic cells by its ligand, muramyl dipeptide (MDP), negatively regulates Toll-like receptor (TLR)-mediated inflammatory responses. Here we show that NOD2 activation results in increased interferon regulatory factor 4 (IRF4) expression and binding to tumor necrosis factor receptor associated factor 6 (TRAF6) and RICK (receptor interacting serine-threonine kinase). We then show that such binding leads to IRF4-mediated inhibition of Lys63-linked polyubiquitination of TRAF6 and RICK and thus to downregulation of nuclear factor (NF)-κB activation. Finally, we demonstrate that protection of mice from the development of experimental colitis by MDP or IRF4 administration is accompanied by similar IRF4-mediated effects on polyubiquitination of TRAF6 and RICK in colonic lamina propria mononuclear cells. These findings thus define a mechanism of NOD2-mediated regulation of innate immune responses to intestinal microflora that could explain the relation of CARD15 polymorphisms and resultant NOD2 dysfunction to CD.

Integrin ?3?1 regulates kidney collecting duct development via TRAF6-dependent K63-linked polyubiquitination of Akt.

Project description:The collecting system of the kidney develops from the ureteric bud (UB), which undergoes branching morphogenesis, a process regulated by multiple factors, including integrin-extracellular matrix interactions. The laminin (LM)-binding integrin ?3?1 is crucial for this developmental program; however, the LM types and LM/integrin ?3?1-dependent signaling pathways are poorly defined. We show that ?3 chain-containing LMs promote normal UB branching morphogenesis and that LM-332 is a better substrate than LM-511 for stimulating integrin ?3?1-dependent collecting duct cell functions. We demonstrate that integrin ?3?1-mediated cell adhesion to LM-332 modulates Akt activation in the developing collecting system and that Akt activation is PI3K independent but requires decreased PTEN activity and K63-linked polyubiquitination. We identified the ubiquitin-modifying enzyme TRAF6 as an interactor with the integrin ?1 subunit and regulator of integrin ?3?1-dependent Akt activation. Finally, we established that the developmental defects of TRAF6- and integrin ?3-null mouse kidneys are similar. Thus K63-linked polyubiquitination plays a previously unrecognized role in integrin ?3?1-dependent cell signaling required for UB development and may represent a novel mechanism whereby integrins regulate signaling pathways.

HTLV-1 tax stabilizes MCL-1 via TRAF6-dependent K63-linked polyubiquitination to promote cell survival and transformation.

Project description:The human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) Tax protein hijacks the host ubiquitin machinery to activate I?B kinases (IKKs) and NF-?B and promote cell survival; however, the key ubiquitinated factors downstream of Tax involved in cell transformation are unknown. Using mass spectrometry, we undertook an unbiased proteome-wide quantitative survey of cellular proteins modified by ubiquitin in the presence of Tax or a Tax mutant impaired in IKK activation. Tax induced the ubiquitination of 22 cellular proteins, including the anti-apoptotic BCL-2 family member MCL-1, in an IKK-dependent manner. Tax was found to promote the nondegradative lysine 63 (K63)-linked polyubiquitination of MCL-1 that was dependent on the E3 ubiquitin ligase TRAF6 and the IKK complex. Tax interacted with and activated TRAF6, and triggered its mitochondrial localization, where it conjugated four carboxyl-terminal lysine residues of MCL-1 with K63-linked polyubiquitin chains, which stabilized and protected MCL-1 from genotoxic stress-induced degradation. TRAF6 and MCL-1 played essential roles in the survival of HTLV-1 transformed cells and the immortalization of primary T cells by HTLV-1. Therefore, K63-linked polyubiquitination represents a novel regulatory mechanism controlling MCL-1 stability that has been usurped by a viral oncogene to precipitate cell survival and transformation.

ZDHHC11 Positively Regulates NF-κB Activation by Enhancing TRAF6 Oligomerization.

Project description:Tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6) is a RING domain ubiquitin ligase that plays an important role in nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling by regulating activation of the TAK1 and IKK complexes. However, the molecular mechanisms that regulate TRAF6 E3 activity remain unclear. Here, we found that ZDHHC11, a member of the DHHC palmitoyl transferase family, functions as a positive modulator in NF-κB signaling. ZDHHC11 overexpression activated NF-κB, whereas ZDHHC11 deficiency impaired NF-κB activity stimulated by IL-1β, LPS, and DNA virus infection. Furthermore, Zdhhc11 knockout mice had a lower level of serum IL6 upon treatment with LPS and D-galactosamine or HSV-1 infection than control mice. Mechanistically, ZDHHC11 interacted with TRAF6 and then enhanced TRAF6 oligomerization, which increased E3 activity of TRAF6 for synthesis of K63-linked ubiquitination chains. Collectively, our study indicates that ZDHHC11 positively regulates NF-κB signaling by promoting TRAF6 oligomerization and ligase activity, subsequently activating TAK1 and IKK complexes.

Enhanced NF-κB activation via HIV-1 Tat-TRAF6 cross-talk.

Project description:The Tat proteins of HIV-1 and simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) are essential for activating viral transcription. In addition, Tat stimulates nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) signaling pathways to regulate viral gene expression although its molecular mechanism is unclear. Here, we report that Tat directly activates NF-κB through the interaction with TRAF6, which is an essential upstream signaling molecule of the canonical NF-κB pathway. This interaction increases TRAF6 oligomerization and auto-ubiquitination, as well as the synthesis of K63-linked polyubiquitin chains to further activate the NF-κB pathway and HIV-1 transcription. Moreover, ectopic expression of TRAF6 significantly activates HIV-1 transcription, whereas TRAF6 knockdown inhibits transcription. Furthermore, Tat-mediated activation of NF-κB through TRAF6 is conserved among HIV-1, HIV-2, and SIV isolates. Our study uncovers yet another mechanism by which HIV-1 subverts host transcriptional pathways to enhance its own transcription.

K48/K63-linked polyubiquitination of ATG9A at K581/K838 by TRAF6 E3 ligase

Project description:Excessive generation and accumulation of highly reactive oxidizing molecules causes oxidative stress and oxidative damage to cellular components. Accumulating evidence indicates that autophagy diminishes oxidative damage in cells and maintains redox homeostasis by degrading and recycling intracellular damaged components. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the activation of oxidative stress-mediated autophagic response remain elusive. Here we show that ubiquitin E3 ligase TNF receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6) and the deubiquitinase A20 coordinate to regulate ATG9A ubiquitination and autophagy activation in cells responding to oxidative stress. The reactive oxygen species (ROS)-dependent TRAF6-mediated non-proteolytic, K48/63-linked ubiquitination of ATG9A enhances its association with Beclin 1 and the assembly of class III phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3KC3/VPS34) UVRAG complex, thereby stimulating autophagy. Notably, depletion of ATG9A or expression of the ATG9A ubiquitination mutants markedly decreases ROS-induced VPS34 activation and autophagy. We further find that lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ROS production also stimulates TRAF6-mediated ATG9A ubiquitination and enhances the assembly of the UVRAG-containing VPS34 complex in an ATG9A-dependent manner. Ablation of ATG9A causes aberrant TLR4 endosomal trafficking and decreased phosphorylation of IRF-3 in LPS-stimulated macrophages. Our findings provide important insight into how K48/K63-linked ubiquitination of ATG9A contributes to the regulation of oxidative stress-induced autophagy.

YOD1/TRAF6 association balances p62-dependent IL-1 signaling to NF-κB.

Project description:The ubiquitin ligase TRAF6 is a key regulator of canonical IκB kinase (IKK)/NF-κB signaling in response to interleukin-1 (IL-1) stimulation. Here, we identified the deubiquitinating enzyme YOD1 (OTUD2) as a novel interactor of TRAF6 in human cells. YOD1 binds to the C-terminal TRAF homology domain of TRAF6 that also serves as the interaction surface for the adaptor p62/Sequestosome-1, which is required for IL-1 signaling to NF-κB. We show that YOD1 competes with p62 for TRAF6 association and abolishes the sequestration of TRAF6 to cytosolic p62 aggregates by a non-catalytic mechanism. YOD1 associates with TRAF6 in unstimulated cells but is released upon IL-1β stimulation, thereby facilitating TRAF6 auto-ubiquitination as well as NEMO/IKKγ substrate ubiquitination. Further, IL-1 triggered IKK/NF-κB signaling and induction of target genes is decreased by YOD1 overexpression and augmented after YOD1 depletion. Hence, our data define that YOD1 antagonizes TRAF6/p62-dependent IL-1 signaling to NF-κB.
