Glycoprotein-specific ubiquitin ligases recognize N-glycans in unfolded substrates.

ABSTRACT: Misfolded or unassembled polypeptides in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) are retro-translocated into the cytosol and degraded by the ubiquitin-proteasome system. We reported previously that the SCF(Fbs1,2) ubiquitin-ligase complexes that contribute to ubiquitination of glycoproteins are involved in the ER-associated degradation pathway. Here we investigated how the SCF(Fbs1,2) complexes interact with unfolded glycoproteins. The SCF(Fbs1) complex was associated with p97/VCP AAA ATPase and bound to integrin-beta1, one of the SCF(Fbs1) substrates, in the cytosol in a manner dependent on p97 ATPase activity. Both Fbs1 and Fbs2 proteins interacted with denatured glycoproteins, which were modified with not only high-mannose but also complex-type oligosaccharides, more efficiently than native proteins. Given that Fbs proteins interact with innermost chitobiose in N-glycans, we propose that Fbs proteins distinguish native from unfolded glycoproteins by sensing the exposed chitobiose structure.

BioE3 identifies specific substrates of ubiquitin E3 ligases.

Project description:Hundreds of E3 ligases play a critical role in recognizing specific substrates for modification by ubiquitin (Ub). Separating genuine targets of E3s from E3-interactors remains a challenge. We present BioE3, a powerful approach for matching substrates to Ub E3 ligases of interest. Using BirA-E3 ligase fusions and bioUb, site-specific biotinylation of Ub-modified substrates of particular E3s facilitates proteomic identification. We show that BioE3 identifies both known and new targets of two RING-type E3 ligases: RNF4 (DNA damage response, PML bodies), and MIB1 (endocytosis, autophagy, centrosome dynamics). Versatile BioE3 identifies targets of an organelle-specific E3 (MARCH5) and a relatively uncharacterized E3 (RNF214). Furthermore, BioE3 works with NEDD4, a HECT-type E3, identifying new targets linked to vesicular trafficking. BioE3 detects altered specificity in response to chemicals, opening avenues for targeted protein degradation, and may be applicable for other Ub-likes (UbLs, e.g., SUMO) and E3 types. BioE3 applications shed light on cellular regulation by the complex UbL network.

The pellino e3 ubiquitin ligases recognize specific phosphothreonine motifs and have distinct substrate specificities.

Project description:The four mammalian Pellinos (Pellinos 1, 2, 3a, and 3b) are E3 ubiquitin ligases that are emerging as critical mediators for a variety of immune signaling pathways, including those activated by Toll-like receptors, the T-cell receptor, and NOD2. It is becoming increasingly clear that each Pellino has a distinct role in facilitating immune receptor signaling. However, the underlying mechanisms by which these highly homologous proteins act selectively in these signaling pathways are not clear. In this study, we investigate whether Pellino substrate recognition contributes to the divergent functions of Pellinos. Substrate recognition of each Pellino is mediated by its noncanonical forkhead-associated (FHA) domain, a well-characterized phosphothreonine-binding module. Pellino FHA domains share very high sequence identity, so a molecular basis for differences in substrate recognition is not immediately apparent. To explore Pellino substrate specificity, we first identify a high-affinity Pellino2 FHA domain-binding motif in the Pellino substrate, interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 1 (IRAK1). Analysis of binding of the different Pellinos to a panel of phosphothreonine-containing peptides derived from the IRAK1-binding motif reveals that each Pellino has a distinct phosphothreonine peptide binding preference. We observe a similar binding specificity in the interaction of Pellinos with a number of known Pellino substrates. These results argue that the nonredundant roles that Pellinos play in immune signaling are in part due to their divergent substrate specificities. This new insight into Pellino substrate recognition could be exploited for pharmacological advantage in treating inflammatory diseases that have been linked to the aberrant regulation of Pellinos.

Enzyme-substrate relationships in the ubiquitin system: approaches for identifying substrates of ubiquitin ligases.

Project description:Protein ubiquitylation is an important post-translational modification, regulating aspects of virtually every biochemical pathway in eukaryotic cells. Hundreds of enzymes participate in the conjugation and deconjugation of ubiquitin, as well as the recognition, signaling functions, and degradation of ubiquitylated proteins. Regulation of ubiquitylation is most commonly at the level of recognition of substrates by E3 ubiquitin ligases. Characterization of the network of E3-substrate relationships is a major goal and challenge in the field, as this expected to yield fundamental biological insights and opportunities for drug development. There has been remarkable success in identifying substrates for some E3 ligases, in many instances using the standard protein-protein interaction techniques (e.g., two-hybrid screens and co-immunoprecipitations paired with mass spectrometry). However, some E3s have remained refractory to characterization, while others have simply not yet been studied due to the sheer number and diversity of E3s. This review will discuss the range of tools and techniques that can be used for substrate profiling of E3 ligases.

A family of mammalian E3 ubiquitin ligases that contain the UBR box motif and recognize N-degrons.

Project description:A subset of proteins targeted by the N-end rule pathway bear degradation signals called N-degrons, whose determinants include destabilizing N-terminal residues. Our previous work identified mouse UBR1 and UBR2 as E3 ubiquitin ligases that recognize N-degrons. Such E3s are called N-recognins. We report here that while double-mutant UBR1(-/-) UBR2(-/-) mice die as early embryos, the rescued UBR1(-/-) UBR2(-/-) fibroblasts still retain the N-end rule pathway, albeit of lower activity than that of wild-type fibroblasts. An affinity assay for proteins that bind to destabilizing N-terminal residues has identified, in addition to UBR1 and UBR2, a huge (570 kDa) mouse protein, termed UBR4, and also the 300-kDa UBR5, a previously characterized mammalian E3 known as EDD/hHYD. UBR1, UBR2, UBR4, and UBR5 shared a approximately 70-amino-acid zinc finger-like domain termed the UBR box. The mammalian genome encodes at least seven UBR box-containing proteins, which we propose to call UBR1 to UBR7. UBR1(-/-) UBR2(-/-) fibroblasts that have been made deficient in UBR4 as well (through RNA interference) were significantly impaired in the degradation of N-end rule substrates such as the Sindbis virus RNA polymerase nsP4 (bearing N-terminal Tyr) and the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 integrase (bearing N-terminal Phe). Our results establish the UBR box family as a unique class of E3 proteins that recognize N-degrons or structurally related determinants for ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis and perhaps other processes as well.

Substrates of IAP ubiquitin ligases identified with a designed orthogonal E3 ligase, the NEDDylator.

Project description:Inhibitors of Apoptosis Protein (IAPs) are guardian ubiquitin ligases that keep classic proapoptotic proteins in check. Systematic identification of additional IAP substrates is challenged by the heterogeneity and sheer number of ubiquitinated proteins (>5,000). Here we report a powerful catalytic tagging tool, the NEDDylator, which fuses a NEDD8 E2-conjugating enzyme, Ubc12, to the ubiquitin ligase, XIAP or cIAP1. This permits transfer of the rare ubiquitin homolog NEDD8 to the ubiquitin E3 substrates, allowing them to be efficiently purified for LC-MS/MS identification. We have identified >50 potential IAP substrates of both cytosolic and mitochondrial origin that bear hallmark N-terminal IAP binding motifs. These substrates include the recently discovered protein phosphatase PGAM5, which we show is proteolytically processed, accumulates in cytosol during apoptosis, and sensitizes cells to death. These studies reveal mechanisms and antagonistic partners for specific IAPs, and provide a powerful technology for labeling binding partners in transient protein-protein complexes.

Deep-learning based approach to identify substrates of human E3 ubiquitin ligases and deubiquitinases.

Project description:E3 ubiquitin ligases (E3s) and deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs) play key roles in protein degradation. However, a large number of E3 substrate interactions (ESIs) and DUB substrate interactions (DSIs) remain elusive. Here, we present DeepUSI, a deep learning-based framework to identify ESIs and DSIs using the rich information present in protein sequences. Utilizing the collected golden standard dataset, key hyperparameters in the process of model training, including the ones relevant to data sampling and number of epochs, have been systematically assessed. The performance of DeepUSI was thoroughly evaluated by multiple metrics, based on internal and external validation. Application of DeepUSI to cancer-associated E3 and DUB genes identified a list of druggable substrates with functional implications, warranting further investigation. Together, DeepUSI presents a new framework for predicting substrates of E3 ubiquitin ligases and deubiquitinates.

Mannosidase activity of EDEM1 and EDEM2 depends on an unfolded state of their glycoprotein substrates.

Project description:Extensive mannose trimming of nascent glycoprotein N-glycans signals their targeting to endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD). ER mannosidase I (ERManI) and the EDEM protein family participate in this process. However, whether the EDEMs are truly mannosidases can be addressed only by measuring mannosidase activity in vitro. Here, we reveal EDEM1 and EDEM2 mannosidase activities in vitro. Whereas ERManI significantly trims free N-glycans, activity of the EDEMs is modest on free oligosaccharides and on glycoproteins. However, mannosidase activity of ERManI and the EDEMs is significantly higher on a denatured glycoprotein. The EDEMs associate with oxidoreductases, protein disulfide isomerase, and especially TXNDC11, enhancing mannosidase activity on glycoproteins but not on free N-glycans. The finding that substrate unfolded status increases mannosidase activity solves an important conundrum, as current models suggest general slow mannose trimming. As we show, misfolded or unfolded glycoproteins are subject to differentially faster trimming (and targeting to ERAD) than well-folded ones.

Human and viral membrane-associated E3 ubiquitin ligases MARCH1 and MIR2 recognize different features of CD86 to downregulate surface expression.

Project description:Immune-stimulatory ligands, such as major histocompatibility complex molecules and the T-cell costimulatory ligand CD86, are central to productive immunity. Endogenous mammalian membrane-associated RING-CHs (MARCH) act on these and other targets to regulate antigen presentation and activation of adaptive immunity, whereas virus-encoded homologs target the same molecules to evade immune responses. Substrate specificity is encoded in or near the membrane-embedded domains of MARCHs and the proteins they regulate, but the exact sequences that distinguish substrates from nonsubstrates are poorly understood. Here, we examined the requirements for recognition of the costimulatory ligand CD86 by two different MARCH-family proteins, human MARCH1 and Kaposi's sarcoma herpesvirus modulator of immune recognition 2 (MIR2), using deep mutational scanning. We identified a highly specific recognition surface in the hydrophobic core of the CD86 transmembrane (TM) domain (TMD) that is required for recognition by MARCH1 and prominently features a proline at position 254. In contrast, MIR2 requires no specific sequences in the CD86 TMD but relies primarily on an aspartic acid at position 244 in the CD86 extracellular juxtamembrane region. Surprisingly, MIR2 recognized CD86 with a TMD composed entirely of valine, whereas many different single amino acid substitutions in the context of the native TM sequence conferred MIR2 resistance. These results show that the human and viral proteins evolved completely different recognition modes for the same substrate. That some TM sequences are incompatible with MIR2 activity, even when no specific recognition motif is required, suggests a more complicated mechanism of immune modulation via CD86 than was previously appreciated.

Protein quality control degron-containing substrates are differentially targeted in the cytoplasm and nucleus by ubiquitin ligases.

Project description:Intracellular proteolysis by the ubiquitin-proteasome system regulates numerous processes and contributes to protein quality control (PQC) in all eukaryotes. Covalent attachment of ubiquitin to other proteins is specified by the many ubiquitin ligases (E3s) expressed in cells. Here we determine the E3s in Saccharomyces cerevisiae that function in degradation of proteins bearing various PQC degradation signals (degrons). The E3 Ubr1 can function redundantly with several E3s, including nuclear-localized San1, endoplasmic reticulum/nuclear membrane-embedded Doa10, and chromatin-associated Slx5/Slx8. Notably, multiple degrons are targeted by more ubiquitylation pathways if directed to the nucleus. Degrons initially assigned as exclusive substrates of Doa10 were targeted by Doa10, San1, and Ubr1 when directed to the nucleus. By contrast, very short hydrophobic degrons-typical targets of San1-are shown here to be targeted by Ubr1 and/or San1, but not Doa10. Thus, distinct types of PQC substrates are differentially recognized by the ubiquitin system in a compartment-specific manner. In human cells, a representative short hydrophobic degron appended to the C-terminus of GFP-reduced protein levels compared with GFP alone, consistent with a recent study that found numerous natural hydrophobic C-termini of human proteins can act as degrons. We also report results of bioinformatic analyses of potential human C-terminal degrons, which reveal that most peptide substrates of Cullin-RING ligases (CRLs) are of low hydrophobicity, consistent with previous data showing CRLs target degrons with specific sequences. These studies expand our understanding of PQC in yeast and human cells, including the distinct but overlapping PQC E3 substrate specificity of the cytoplasm and nucleus.
