CSNAP, the smallest CSN subunit, modulates proteostasis through cullin-RING ubiquitin ligases.

ABSTRACT: The cullin-RING ubiquitin E3 ligase (CRL) family consists of ~250 complexes that catalyze ubiquitylation of proteins to achieve cellular regulation. All CRLs are inhibited by the COP9 signalosome complex (CSN) through both enzymatic (deneddylation) and nonenzymatic (steric) mechanisms. The relative contribution of these two mechanisms is unclear. Here, we decouple the mechanisms using CSNAP, the recently discovered ninth subunit of the CSN. We find that CSNAP reduces the affinity of CSN toward CRL complexes. Removing CSNAP does not affect deneddylation, but leads to global effects on the CRL, causing altered reproductive capacity, suppressed DNA damage response, and delayed cell cycle progression. Thus, although CSNAP is only 2% of the CSN mass, it plays a critical role in the steric regulation of CRLs by the CSN.

Suramin inhibits cullin-RING E3 ubiquitin ligases.

Project description:Cullin-RING E3 ubiquitin ligases (CRL) control a myriad of biological processes by directing numerous protein substrates for proteasomal degradation. Key to CRL activity is the recruitment of the E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme Cdc34 through electrostatic interactions between E3's cullin conserved basic canyon and the acidic C terminus of the E2 enzyme. This report demonstrates that a small-molecule compound, suramin, can inhibit CRL activity by disrupting its ability to recruit Cdc34. Suramin, an antitrypansomal drug that also possesses antitumor activity, was identified here through a fluorescence-based high-throughput screen as an inhibitor of ubiquitination. Suramin was shown to target cullin 1's conserved basic canyon and to block its binding to Cdc34. Suramin inhibits the activity of a variety of CRL complexes containing cullin 2, 3, and 4A. When introduced into cells, suramin induced accumulation of CRL substrates. These observations help develop a strategy of regulating ubiquitination by targeting an E2-E3 interface through small-molecule modulators.

Building and remodelling Cullin-RING E3 ubiquitin ligases.

Project description:Cullin-RING E3 ubiquitin ligases (CRLs) control a plethora of biological pathways through targeted ubiquitylation of signalling proteins. These modular assemblies use substrate receptor modules to recruit specific targets. Recent efforts have focused on understanding the mechanisms that control the activity state of CRLs through dynamic alterations in CRL architecture. Central to these processes are cycles of cullin neddylation and deneddylation, as well as exchange of substrate receptor modules to re-sculpt the CRL landscape, thereby responding to the cellular requirements to turn over distinct proteins in different contexts. This review is focused on how CRLs are dynamically controlled with an emphasis on how cullin neddylation cycles are integrated with receptor exchange.

Cullin-RING E3 Ubiquitin Ligases: Bridges to Destruction.

Project description:Ubiquitination is a highly conserved post-translational modification in eukaryotes, well known for targeting proteins for degradation by the 26S proteasome. Proteins destined for proteasomal degradation are selected by E3 ubiquitin ligases. Cullin-RING E3 ubiquitin ligases (CRLs) are the largest superfamily of E3 ubiquitin ligases, with over 400 members known in mammals. These modular complexes are tightly regulated in the cell. In this chapter, we highlight recent structural and biochemical advances shedding light on the assembly and architecture of cullin-RING ligases, their dynamic regulation by a variety of host factors, and their manipulation by viral pathogens and small molecules.

NEDD8 and ubiquitin ligation by cullin-RING E3 ligases.

Project description:RING E3s comprise the largest family of ubiquitin (UB) and ubiquitin-like protein (UBL) ligases. RING E3s typically promote UB or UBL transfer from the active site of an associated E2 enzyme to a distally-recruited substrate. Many RING E3s - including the cullin-RING ligase family - are multifunctional, interacting with various E2s (or other E3s) to target distinct proteins, transfer different UBLs, or to initially modify substrates with UB or subsequently elongate UB chains. Here we consider recent structures of cullin-RING ligases, and their partner E2 enzymes, representing ligation reactions. The studies collectively reveal multimodal mechanisms - interactions between ancillary E2 or E3 domains, post-translational modifications, or auxiliary binding partners - directing cullin-RING E3-E2 enzyme active sites to modify their specific targets.

Identification of hypertrophy-modulating Cullin-RING ubiquitin ligases in primary cardiomyocytes.

Project description:Cullin-RING ubiquitin ligases (CRL) regulate numerous biological processes in the heart and have been implicated in regulating cardiac hypertrophy. This study aimed to identify novel hypertrophy-modulating CRLs in cardiomyocytes (CM). A functional genomic approach using siRNA-mediated depletion and automated microscopy was employed to screen for cell size-modulating CRLs in neonatal rat CM. Screening hits were confirmed by 3H-isoleucine incorporation. Of 43 targets screened, siRNA-mediated depletion of Fbxo6, Fbxo45, and Fbxl14 resulted in decreased cell size, whereas depletion of Fbxo9, Fbxo25, Fbxo30, Fbxo32, Fbxo33, Cullin1, Roc1, Ddb1, Fbxw4, and Fbxw5 led to a markedly increased cell size under basal conditions. In CM stimulated with phenylephrine (PE), depletion of Fbxo6, Fbxo25, Fbxo33, Fbxo45, and Fbxw4 further augmented PE-induced hypertrophy. As a proof-of-concept, the CRLFbox25 was analysed by transverse aortic constriction (TAC) resulting in a 4.5-fold increase in Fbxo25 protein concentrations compared to control animals. In cell culture, siRNA-mediated depletion of Fbxo25 resulted in a ∼ 37% increase in CM cell size and ∼41% increase in 3H-isoleucine incorporation. Depleting Fbxo25 resulted in upregulation of Anp and Bnp. In summary, we identified 13 novel CRLs as positive or negative regulators of CM hypertrophy. Of these, CRLFbox25 was further characterized, as a potential modulator of cardiac hypertrophy.

It is not all about BRCA: Cullin-Ring ubiquitin Ligases in ovarian cancer.

Project description:Mutations in the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes predispose individuals to the development of breast and ovarian cancers. As a result, biochemical functions of BRCA1 and BRCA2 proteins are being characterised in great detail. These studies have prompted the use of PARP inhibitors to treat BRCA1 and BRCA2-deficient ovarian cancers. This example of synthetic lethality represents a conceptual progress made recently in the approach to cancer treatment and is being currently tested in multiple clinical trials. Other than BRCA1 and BRCA2, many other factors might influence the survival of ovarian cancer patients. Currently, ovarian cancer remains the fifth most common cancer in the United Kingdom among women. Recent evidence suggests benefit in the modulation of the ubiquitin-proteasome system for the treatment of ovarian cancer. In this manuscript, we review the role of Cullin-Ring ubiquitin Ligases (CRLs) in the pathogenesis of ovarian cancer and their potential therapeutic exploitation. CRLs comprise a large family of proteins that, like kinases, might represent ideal candidates for targeted therapy and provide a large repertoire for the development of new anti-cancer compounds.

Protein neddylation: beyond cullin-RING ligases.

Project description:NEDD8 (neural precursor cell expressed developmentally downregulated protein 8) is a ubiquitin-like protein that activates the largest ubiquitin E3 ligase family, the cullin-RING ligases. Many non-cullin neddylation targets have been proposed in recent years. However, overexpression of exogenous NEDD8 can trigger NEDD8 conjugation through the ubiquitylation machinery, which makes validating potential NEDD8 targets challenging. Here, we re-evaluate studies of non-cullin targets of NEDD8 in light of the current understanding of the neddylation pathway, and suggest criteria for identifying genuine neddylation substrates under homeostatic conditions. We describe the biological processes that might be regulated by non-cullin neddylation, and the utility of neddylation inhibitors for research and as potential therapies. Understanding the biological significance of non-cullin neddylation is an exciting research prospect primed to reveal fundamental insights.

A RING E3-substrate complex poised for ubiquitin-like protein transfer: structural insights into cullin-RING ligases.

Project description:How RING E3 ligases mediate E2-to-substrate ubiquitin-like protein (UBL) transfer remains unknown. Here we address how the RING E3 RBX1 positions NEDD8's E2 (UBC12) and substrate (CUL1). We find that existing structures are incompatible with CUL1 NEDD8ylation and report a new conformation of RBX1 that places UBC12 adjacent to CUL1. We propose RING domain rotation as a general mechanism for UBL transfer for the largest family of E3s.

Targeting Cullin-RING E3 ubiquitin ligases for drug discovery: structure, assembly and small-molecule modulation.

Project description:In the last decade, the ubiquitin-proteasome system has emerged as a valid target for the development of novel therapeutics. E3 ubiquitin ligases are particularly attractive targets because they confer substrate specificity on the ubiquitin system. CRLs [Cullin-RING (really interesting new gene) E3 ubiquitin ligases] draw particular attention, being the largest family of E3s. The CRLs assemble into functional multisubunit complexes using a repertoire of substrate receptors, adaptors, Cullin scaffolds and RING-box proteins. Drug discovery targeting CRLs is growing in importance due to mounting evidence pointing to significant roles of these enzymes in diverse biological processes and human diseases, including cancer, where CRLs and their substrates often function as tumour suppressors or oncogenes. In the present review, we provide an account of the assembly and structure of CRL complexes, and outline the current state of the field in terms of available knowledge of small-molecule inhibitors and modulators of CRL activity. A comprehensive overview of the reported crystal structures of CRL subunits, components and full-size complexes, alone or with bound small molecules and substrate peptides, is included. This information is providing increasing opportunities to aid the rational structure-based design of chemical probes and potential small-molecule therapeutics targeting CRLs.
