Site-specific ubiquitination of the E3 ligase HOIP regulates apoptosis and immune signaling.

ABSTRACT: HOIP, the catalytic component of the linear ubiquitin chain assembly complex (LUBAC), is a critical regulator of inflammation. However, how HOIP itself is regulated to control inflammatory responses is unclear. Here, we discover that site-specific ubiquitination of K784 within human HOIP promotes tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-induced inflammatory signaling. A HOIP K784R mutant is catalytically active but shows reduced induction of an NF-κB reporter relative to wild-type HOIP. HOIP K784 is evolutionarily conserved, equivalent to HOIP K778 in mice. We generated Hoip^K778R/K778R knock-in mice, which show no overt developmental phenotypes; however, in response to TNF, Hoip^K778R/K778R mouse embryonic fibroblasts display mildly suppressed NF-κB activation and increased apoptotic markers. On the other hand, HOIP K778R enhances the TNF-induced formation of TNFR complex II and an interaction between TNFR complex II and LUBAC. Loss of the LUBAC component SHARPIN leads to embryonic lethality in Hoip^K778R/K778R mice, which is rescued by knockout of TNFR1. We propose that site-specific ubiquitination of HOIP regulates a LUBAC-dependent switch between survival and apoptosis in TNF signaling.

The E3 ligase TRAF6 regulates Akt ubiquitination and activation.

Project description:Akt signaling plays a central role in many biological functions, such as cell proliferation and apoptosis. Because Akt (also known as protein kinase B) resides primarily in the cytosol, it is not known how these signaling molecules are recruited to the plasma membrane and subsequently activated by growth factor stimuli. We found that the protein kinase Akt undergoes lysine-63 chain ubiquitination, which is important for Akt membrane localization and phosphorylation. TRAF6 was found to be a direct E3 ligase for Akt and was essential for Akt ubiquitination, membrane recruitment, and phosphorylation upon growth-factor stimulation. The human cancer-associated Akt mutant displayed an increase in Akt ubiquitination, in turn contributing to the enhancement of Akt membrane localization and phosphorylation. Thus, Akt ubiquitination is an important step for oncogenic Akt activation.

E3 ligase RNF99 negatively regulates TLR-mediated inflammatory immune response via K48-linked ubiquitination of TAB2.

Project description:Innate immunity is the first line to defend against pathogenic microorganisms, and Toll-like receptor (TLR)-mediated inflammatory responses are an essential component of innate immunity. However, the regulatory mechanisms of TLRs in innate immunity remain unperfected. We found that the expression of E3 ligase Ring finger protein 99 (RNF99) decreased significantly in peripheral blood monocytes from patients infected with Gram negative bacteria (G-) and macrophages stimulated by TLRs ligands, indicating the role of RNF99. We also demonstrated for the first time, the protective role of RNF99 against LPS-induced septic shock and dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis using RNF99 knockout mice (RNF99-/-) and bone marrow-transplanted mice. In vitro experiments revealed that RNF99 deficiency significantly promoted TLR-mediated inflammatory cytokine expression and activated the NF-κB and MAPK pathways in macrophages. Mechanistically, in both macrophages and HEK293 cell line with TLR4 stably transfection, RNF99 interacted with and degraded TAK1-binding protein (TAB) 2, a regulatory protein of the kinase TAK1, via the lysine (K)48-linked ubiquitin-proteasomal pathway on lysine 611 of TAB2, which further regulated the TLR-mediated inflammatory response. Overall, these findings indicated the physiological significance of RNF99 in macrophages in regulating TLR-mediated inflammatory reactions. It provided new insight into TLRs signal transduction, and offered a novel approach for preventing bacterial infections, endotoxin shock, and other inflammatory ills.

E3 ubiquitin ligase HOIP attenuates apoptotic cell death induced by cisplatin.

Project description:The genotoxin cisplatin is commonly used in chemotherapy to treat solid tumors, yet our understanding of the mechanism underlying the drug response is limited. In a focused siRNA screen, using an siRNA library targeting genes involved in ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like signaling, we identified the E3 ubiquitin ligase HOIP as a key regulator of cisplatin-induced genotoxicity. HOIP forms, with SHARPIN and HOIL-1L, the linear ubiquitin assembly complex (LUBAC). We show that cells deficient in the HOIP ligase complex exhibit hypersensitivity to cisplatin. This is due to a dramatic increase in caspase-8/caspase-3-mediated apoptosis that is strictly dependent on ATM-, but not ATR-mediated DNA damage checkpoint activation. Moreover, basal and cisplatin-induced activity of the stress response kinase JNK is enhanced in HOIP-depleted cells and, conversely, JNK inhibition can increase cellular resistance to cisplatin and reverse the apoptotic hyperactivation in HOIP-depleted cells. Furthermore, we show that HOIP depletion sensitizes cancer cells, derived from carcinomas of various origins, through an enhanced apoptotic cell death response. We also provide evidence that ovarian cancer cells classified as cisplatin-resistant can regain sensitivity following HOIP downregulation. Cumulatively, our study identifies a HOIP-regulated antiapoptotic signaling pathway, and we envisage HOIP as a potential target for the development of combinatorial chemotherapies to potentiate the efficacy of platinum-based anticancer drugs.

Characterisation of HOIP RBR E3 ligase conformational dynamics using integrative modelling.

Project description:Multidomain proteins composed of individual domains connected by flexible linkers pose a challenge for structural studies due to their intrinsic conformational dynamics. Integrated modelling approaches provide a means to characterise protein flexibility by combining experimental measurements with molecular simulations. In this study, we characterise the conformational dynamics of the catalytic RBR domain of the E3 ubiquitin ligase HOIP, which regulates immune and inflammatory signalling pathways. Specifically, we combine small angle X-ray scattering experiments and molecular dynamics simulations to generate weighted conformational ensembles of the HOIP RBR domain using two different approaches based on maximum parsimony and maximum entropy principles. Both methods provide optimised ensembles that are instrumental in rationalising observed differences between SAXS-based solution studies and available crystal structures and highlight the importance of interdomain linker flexibility.

E3 ligase WWP2 negatively regulates TLR3-mediated innate immune response by targeting TRIF for ubiquitination and degradation.

Project description:Recognition of viral double-stranded RNA by Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) triggers activation of the transcription factors NF-?B and interferon regulated factor 3, leading to induction of type I interferons and proinflammatory cytokines. TIR-domain-containing adapter-inducing interferon-? (TRIF) is an adapter protein required for TLR3-mediated signaling. Here we identified the E3 ubiquitin ligase WW domain-containing protein 2 (WWP2) as a TRIF-associated protein by biochemical purification. WWP2 mediated K48-linked ubiquitination and degradation of TRIF upon TLR3 activation. Overexpression of WWP2 inhibited TLR3-mediated NF-?B and interferon regulated factor 3 activation, whereas knockdown of WWP2 had opposite effects. We generated Wwp2-deficient mice to further investigate the roles of Wwp2 in innate immune responses. Consistently, production of IFN-?, CCL5, TNF?, and IL-6 in response to the TLR3 ligand poly(I:C) was elevated in Wwp2(-/-) macrophages and Wwp2-deficient mice exhibited increased susceptibility to poly(I:C)-induced death than the control littermates. Our findings suggest that WWP2 negatively regulates TLR3-mediated innate immune and inflammatory responses by targeting TRIF for ubiquitination and degradation.

The circadian E3 ligase FBXL21 regulates myoblast differentiation and sarcomere architecture via MYOZ1 ubiquitination and NFAT signaling.

Project description:Numerous molecular and physiological processes in the skeletal muscle undergo circadian time-dependent oscillations in accordance with daily activity/rest cycles. The circadian regulatory mechanisms underlying these cyclic processes, especially at the post-transcriptional level, are not well defined. Previously, we reported that the circadian E3 ligase FBXL21 mediates rhythmic degradation of the sarcomere protein TCAP in conjunction with GSK-3β, and Psttm mice harboring an Fbxl21 hypomorph allele show reduced muscle fiber diameter and impaired muscle function. To further elucidate the regulatory function of FBXL21 in skeletal muscle, we investigated another sarcomere protein, Myozenin1 (MYOZ1), that we identified as an FBXL21-binding protein from yeast 2-hybrid screening. We show that FBXL21 binding to MYOZ1 led to ubiquitination-mediated proteasomal degradation. GSK-3β co-expression and inhibition were found to accelerate and decelerate FBXL21-mediated MYOZ1 degradation, respectively. Previously, MYOZ1 has been shown to inhibit calcineurin/NFAT signaling important for muscle differentiation. In accordance, Fbxl21 KO and MyoZ1 KO in C2C12 cells impaired and enhanced myogenic differentiation respectively compared with control C2C12 cells, concomitant with distinct effects on NFAT nuclear localization and NFAT target gene expression. Importantly, in Psttm mice, both the levels and diurnal rhythm of NFAT2 nuclear localization were significantly diminished relative to wild-type mice, and circadian expression of NFAT target genes associated with muscle differentiation was also markedly dampened. Furthermore, Psttm mice exhibited significant disruption of sarcomere structure with a considerable excess of MYOZ1 accumulation in the Z-line. Taken together, our study illustrates a pivotal role of FBXL21 in sarcomere structure and muscle differentiation by regulating MYOZ1 degradation and NFAT2 signaling.

E3 ubiquitin ligase NEDD4L negatively regulates inflammation by promoting ubiquitination of MEKK2.

Project description:Aberrant activation of inflammation signaling triggered by tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin-1 (IL-1), and interleukin-17 (IL-17) is associated with immunopathology. Here, we identify neural precursor cells expressed developmentally down-regulated gene 4-like (NEDD4L), a HECT type E3 ligase, as a common negative regulator of signaling induced by TNF-α, IL-1, and IL-17. NEDD4L modulates the degradation of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 2 (MEKK2) via constitutively and directly binding to MEKK2 and promotes its poly-ubiquitination. In interleukin-17 receptor (IL-17R) signaling, Nedd4l knockdown or deficiency enhances IL-17-induced p38 and NF-κB activation and the production of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines in a MEKK2-dependent manner. We further show that IL-17-induced MEKK2 Ser520 phosphorylation is required not only for downstream p38 and NF-κB activation but also for NEDD4L-mediated MEKK2 degradation and the subsequent shutdown of IL-17R signaling. Importantly, Nedd4l-deficient mice show increased susceptibility to IL-17-induced inflammation and aggravated symptoms of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) in IL-17R signaling-dependent manner. These data suggest that NEDD4L acts as an inhibitor of IL-17R signaling, which ameliorates the pathogenesis of IL-17-mediated autoimmune diseases.

Innate immune-directed NF-?B signaling requires site-specific NEMO ubiquitination.

Project description:While the I kappa kinase (IKK) scaffolding protein NF-?B essential modulator (NEMO) binds to polyubiquitin chains to transmit inflammatory signals, NEMO itself is also ubiquitinated in response to a variety of inflammatory agonists. Although there have been hints that polyubiquitination of NEMO is essential for avoiding inflammatory disorders, the in vivo physiologic role of NEMO ubiquitination is unknown. In this work, we knock in a NEMO allele in which two major inflammatory agonist-induced ubiquitination sites cannot be ubiquitinated. We show that mice with a nonubiquitinatable NEMO allele display embryonic lethality. Heterozygous females develop inflammatory skin lesions, decreased B cell numbers, and hypercellular spleens. Embryonic lethality can be complemented by mating onto a TNFR1(-/-) background, at the cost of severe steatohepatitis and early mortality, and we also show that NEMO ubiquitination is required for optimal innate immune signaling responses. These findings suggest that NEMO ubiquitination is crucial for NF-?B activity in response to innate immune agonists.
