Polyubiquitin is a diverse signal both in terms of chain length and linkage type. Lysine 48-linked ubiquitin is essential for marking targets for proteasomal degradation, but the significance and relative abundance of different linkages remain ambiguous. Here we dissect the relationship of two proteasome-associated polyubiquitin-binding proteins, Rpn10 and Dsk2, and demonstrate how Rpn10 filters Dsk2 interactions, maintaining proper function of the ubiquitin-proteasome system. Using quantitative mass spectrometry of ubiquitin, we found that in S. cerevisiae under normal growth conditions the majority of conjugated ubiquitin was linked via lysine 48 and lysine 63. In contrast, upon DSK2 induction, conjugates accumulated primarily in the form of lysine 48 linkages correlating with impaired proteolysis and cytotoxicity. By restricting Dsk2 access to the proteasome, extraproteasomal Rpn10 was essential for alleviating the cellular stress associated with Dsk2. This work highlights the importance of polyubiquitin shuttles such as Rpn10 and Dsk2 in controlling the ubiquitin landscape.

In a recent issue of Molecular Cell, Matiuhin et al. (2008) reveal how the ubiquitin receptor Dsk2 becomes deleterious to cells and that it is kept in check by Rpn10, which restricts its access to the proteasome.

S5a/Rpn10 is a ubiquitin (Ub)-binding protein that is a subunit of the 26S proteasome but also exists free in the cytosol. It binds poly-Ub chains through its two Ub-interacting motifs (UIMs). We discovered that, unlike typical substrates of Ub ligases (E3s), S5a can be ubiquitinated by all E3s tested including multimeric and monomeric Ring finger E3s (MuRF1, Siah2, Parkin, APC, and SCF(betaTRCP1)), the U-box E3, CHIP, and HECT domain E3s (E6AP and Nedd4) when assayed with UbcH5 or related Ub-conjugating enzymes. However, the E2s, UbcH1 and UbcH13/Uev1a, which function by distinct mechanisms, do not support S5a ubiquitination. Thus, S5a can be used for assay of probably all E3s with UbcH5. Ubiquitination of S5a results from its binding to Ub chains on the E3 (after self-ubiquitination) or on the substrate, as a mutant lacking the UIM domain was not ubiquitinated. Furthermore, if the S5a UIM domains were fused to GST, the protein was rapidly ubiquitinated by MuRF1 and CHIP. In addition, polyubiquitination (but not monoubiquitination) of MuRF1 allowed S5a to bind to MuRF1 and accelerated S5a ubiquitination. This tendency of S5a to associate with the growing Ub chain can explain how S5a, unlike typical substrates, which are recognized by certain E3s through specific motifs, is ubiquitinated by all E3s tested and is rapidly degraded in vivo.

We identified a novel ubiquitin-like molecule DULP from human dendritic cells. DULP contains a domain that shares 26% identity and 34% similarity with ubiquitin, and it possesses the corresponding Ile-44 hydrophobic patch used by mono- or poly-ubiquitin to interact with a ubiquitin-interaction motif (UIM) or ubiquitin-associated domain (UBA). Lysine residue corresponding to 6 of ubiquitin, which is involved in the formation of a multi-ubiquitin chain that can bind proteasomal subunit Rpn10/S5a, is also conserved in its ubiquitin-homology domain. However, DULP does not possess the highly conserved C-terminus Gly-Gly required for ubiquitin conjugation or the Lys-48 required for the formation of polyubiquitin chain to target substrates for degradation, suggesting it might be a novel ubiquitin-domain protein (UDP). DULP was found widely expressed in many cells and the ubiquitin-homology domain was not cleaved. We also confirmed that DULP expression was enriched in the nucleus and much weaker in the cytosol. Besides, we found that overexpression of DULP in 293T cells induced apoptosis, which might not be associated with the mitochondrial or proteasome pathway, with the specific mechanism remaining unclear. Further investigations are needed to identify the precise biological functions of DULP.

Although the final size of plant organs is influenced by environmental cues, it is generally accepted that the primary size determinants are intrinsic factors that regulate and coordinate cell proliferation and cell expansion. Here, we show that optimal proteasome function is required to maintain final shoot organ size in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). Loss of function of the subunit regulatory particle AAA ATPase (RPT2a) causes a weak defect in 26S proteasome activity and leads to an enlargement of leaves, stems, flowers, fruits, seeds, and embryos. These size increases are a result of increased cell expansion that compensates for a reduction in cell number. Increased ploidy levels were found in some but not all enlarged organs, indicating that the cell size increases are not caused by a higher nuclear DNA content. Partial loss of function of the regulatory particle non-ATPase (RPN) subunits RPN10 and RPN12a causes a stronger defect in proteasome function and also results in cell enlargement and decreased cell proliferation. However, the increased cell volumes in rpn10-1 and rpn12a-1 mutants translated into the enlargement of only some, but not all, shoot organs. Collectively, these data show that during Arabidopsis shoot development, the maintenance of optimal proteasome activity levels is important for balancing cell expansion with cell proliferation rates.

19S regulatory particles (19SRP) of 26S proteasome participate in multiple steps of gene transcription in yeast. We previously showed that Tat-binding protein-1 (TBP-1), an ATPase of 19SRP, interacts with thyroid hormone receptor (TR) and enhances TR-mediated transcription synergistically with steroid receptor coactivator-1 (SRC-1). To further elucidate the roles of ATPases and a non-ATPase component of 19SRP in gene regulation by TR, we investigated whether knockdown (KO) of TBP-1, TRIP1 or Rpn10 using small interfering RNA affects TR-mediated transactivation in HeLa cells. KO of individual subunits attenuated TR-mediated transactivation through the thyroid hormone response element (TRE) in the absence or presence of cotransfected SRC-1 without altering TR and SRC-1 protein levels. KO of TBP-1 disrupted ligand-induced loading of TR, SRC-1, and RNA polymerase II in chromatin immunoprecipitation assays. Collectively, both ATPase and non-ATPase components of 19SRP play critical roles in TR-mediated transactivation by coordinating the proper loading of liganded TR to TRE.

Cryo-electron microscopy in conjunction with advanced image analysis was used to analyze the structure of the 26S proteasome and to elucidate its variable features. We have been able to outline the boundaries of the ATPase module in the "base" part of the regulatory complex that can vary in its position and orientation relative to the 20S core particle. This variation is consistent with the "wobbling" model that was previously proposed to explain the role of the regulatory complex in opening the gate in the alpha-rings of the core particle. In addition, a variable mass near the mouth of the ATPase ring has been identified as Rpn10, a multiubiquitin receptor, by correlating the electron microscopy data with quantitative mass spectrometry.

Recognition of polyubiquitylated substrates by the proteasome is a highly regulated process that requires polyubiquitin receptors. We show here that the concentrations of the proteasomal and extraproteasomal polyubiquitin receptors change in a developmentally regulated fashion. The stoichiometry of the proteasomal p54/Rpn10 polyubiquitin receptor subunit, relative to that of other regulatory particle (RP) subunits falls suddenly at the end of embryogenesis, remains low throughout the larval stages, starts to increase again in the late third instar larvae and remains high in the pupae, adults and embryos. A similar developmentally regulated fluctuation was observed in the concentrations of the Rad23 and Dsk2 extraproteasomal polyubiquitin receptors. Depletion of the polyubiquitin receptors at the end of embryogenesis is due to the emergence of a developmentally regulated selective proteolytic activity. To follow the fate of subunit p54/Rpn10 in vivo, transgenic Drosophila melanogaster lines encoding the N-terminal half (NTH), the C-terminal half (CTH) or the full-length p54/Rpn10 subunit were established in the inducible Gal4-UAS system. The daughterless-Gal4-driven whole-body expression of the full-length subunit or its NTH did not produce any detectable phenotypic changes, and the transgenic products were incorporated into the 26S proteasome. The transgene-encoded CTH was not incorporated into the 26S proteasome, caused third instar larval lethality and was found to be multi-ubiquitylated. This modification, however, did not appear to be a degradation signal because the half-life of the CTH was over 48 hours. Accumulation of the CTH disturbed the developmentally regulated changes in subunit composition of the RP and the emergence of the selective proteolytic activity responsible for the depletion of the polyubiquitin receptors. Build-up of subunit p54/Rpn10 in the RP had already started in 84-hour-old larvae and reached the full complement characteristic of the non-larval developmental stages at the middle of the third instar larval stage, just before these larvae perished. Similar shifts were observed in the concentrations of the Rad23 and Dsk2 polyubiquitin receptors. The postsynthetic modification of CTH might be essential for this developmental regulation, or it might regulate an essential extraproteasomal function(s) of subunit p54/Rpn10 that is disturbed by the expression of an excess of CTH.

Degradation by the proteasome typically requires substrate ubiquitination. Two ubiquitin receptors exist in the proteasome, S5a/Rpn10 and Rpn13. Whereas Rpn13 has only one ubiquitin-binding surface, S5a binds ubiquitin with two independent ubiquitin-interacting motifs (UIMs). Here, we use nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and analytical ultracentrifugation to define at atomic level resolution how S5a binds K48-linked diubiquitin, in which K48 of one ubiquitin subunit (the "proximal" one) is covalently bonded to G76 of the other (the "distal" subunit). We demonstrate that S5a's UIMs bind the two subunits simultaneously with a preference for UIM2 binding to the proximal subunit while UIM1 binds to the distal one. In addition, NMR experiments reveal that Rpn13 and S5a bind K48-linked diubiquitin simultaneously with subunit specificity, and a model structure of S5a and Rpn13 bound to K48-linked polyubiquitin is provided. Altogether, our data demonstrate that S5a is highly adaptive and cooperative toward binding ubiquitin chains.

26S proteasomes consist of cylindrical 20S proteasomes with 19S regulatory complexes attached to the ends. Treatment with high concentrations of salt causes the regulatory complexes to separate into two sub-complexes, the base, which is in contact with the 20S proteasome, and the lid, which is the distal part of the 19S complex. Here, we describe two assembly intermediates of the human regulatory complex. One is a dimer of the two ATPase subunits, Rpt3 and Rpt6. The other is a complex of nascent Rpn2, Rpn10, Rpn11, Rpn13, and Txnl1, attached to preexisting 20S proteasomes. This early assembly complex does not yet contain Rpn1 or any of the ATPase subunits of the base. Thus, assembly of 19S regulatory complexes takes place on preexisting 20S proteasomes, and part of the lid is assembled before the base.
