Ubiquitin-like (UBL)-ubiquitin-associated (UBA) proteins such as Rad23 and Dsk2 mediate the delivery of polyubiquitinated proteins to the proteasome in the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. We show here that budding yeast peptidyl-tRNA hydrolase 2 (Pth2), which was previously recognized as a peptidyl-tRNA hydrolase, is a UBL domain-binding protein that participates in the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. Pth2 bound to the UBL domain of both Rad23 and Dsk2. Pth2 also interacted with polyubiquitinated proteins through the UBA domains of Rad23 and Dsk2. Pth2 overexpression caused an accumulation of polyubiquitinated proteins and inhibited the growth of yeast. Ubiquitin-dependent degradation was accelerated in the pth2Delta mutant and was retarded by overexpression of Pth2. Pth2 inhibited the interaction of Rad23 and Dsk2 with the polyubiquitin receptors Rpn1 and Rpn10 on the proteasome. Furthermore, Pth2 function involving UBL-UBA proteins was independent of its peptidyl-tRNA hydrolase activity. These results suggest that Pth2 negatively regulates the UBL-UBA protein-mediated shuttling pathway in the ubiquitin-proteasome system.

E1 ubiquitin activating enzyme catalyzes the initial step in all ubiquitin-dependent processes. We report the isolation of uba1-204, a temperature-sensitive allele of the essential Saccharomyces cerevisiae E1 gene, UBA1. Uba1-204 cells exhibit dramatic inhibition of the ubiquitin-proteasome system, resulting in rapid depletion of cellular ubiquitin conjugates and stabilization of multiple substrates. We have employed the tight phenotype of this mutant to investigate the role ubiquitin conjugates play in the dynamic interaction of the UbL/UBA adaptor proteins Rad23 and Dsk2 with the proteasome. Although proteasomes purified from mutant cells are intact and proteolytically active, they are depleted of ubiquitin conjugates, Rad23, and Dsk2. Binding of Rad23 to these proteasomes in vitro is enhanced by addition of either free or substrate-linked ubiquitin chains. Moreover, association of Rad23 with proteasomes in mutant and wild-type cells is improved upon stabilizing ubiquitin conjugates with proteasome inhibitor. We propose that recognition of polyubiquitin chains by Rad23 promotes its shuttling to the proteasome in vivo.

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.

A protein that exemplifies the intimate link between the ubiquitin/proteasome system (UPS) and DNA repair is the yeast nucleotide excision repair (NER) protein Rad23 and its human orthologs hHR23A and hHR23B. Rad23, which was originally identified as an important factor involved in the recognition of DNA lesions, also plays a central role in targeting ubiquitylated proteins for proteasomal degradation, an activity that it shares with other ubiquitin receptors like Dsk2 and Ddi1. Although the finding that Rad23 serves as a ubiquitin receptor explains to a large extent its importance in proteasomal degradation, the precise mode of action of Rad23 in NER and the possible link with the UPS is less clear. In this review, we discuss our present knowledge on the functions of Rad23 in protein degradation and DNA repair and speculate on the importance of the dual roles of Rad23 for the cell's ability to cope with stress conditions.

The ubiquitin-like domain (UBL) of yeast protein Dsk2p is widely believed to recognize and bind to ubiquitin receptors on the proteasome and, as part of Dsk2p, to bridge polyubiquitinated substrates and proteasomal degradation machinery. Here we report NMR resonance assignment for (1)H, (15)N, and (13)C nuclei in the backbone and side chains of the UBL domain of Dsk2p. This assignment will aid in NMR studies focused on understanding of Dsk2's interactions with proteasomal receptors and its role as a polyubiquitin shuttle in the ubiquitin-dependent proteasomal degradation as well as other cellular pathways.

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.

As a signal for substrate targeting, polyubiquitin meets various layers of receptors upstream to the 26S proteasome. We obtained structural information on two receptors, Rpn10 and Dsk2, alone and in complex with (poly)ubiquitin or with each other. A hierarchy of affinities emerges with Dsk2 binding monoubiquitin tighter than Rpn10 does, whereas Rpn10 prefers the ubiquitin-like domain of Dsk2 to monoubiquitin, with increasing affinities for longer polyubiquitin chains. We demonstrated the formation of ternary complexes of both receptors simultaneously with (poly)ubiquitin and found that, depending on the ubiquitin chain length, the orientation of the resulting complex is entirely different, providing for alternate signals. Dynamic rearrangement provides a chain-length sensor, possibly explaining how accessibility of Dsk2 to the proteasome is limited unless it carries a properly tagged cargo. We propose a mechanism for a malleable ubiquitin signal that depends both on chain length and combination of receptors to produce tetraubiquitin as an efficient signal threshold.

The switch from gluconeogenesis to glycolysis in yeast has been shown to require ubiquitin-proteasome dependent elimination of the key enzyme fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase). Prior to proteasomal degradation, polyubiquitination of the enzyme occurs via the ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes Ubc1, Ubc4, Ubc5 and Ubc8 in conjunction with a novel multi-subunit ubiquitin ligase, the Gid complex. As an additional machinery required for the catabolite degradation process, we identified the trimeric Cdc48(Ufd1-Npl4) complex and the ubiquitin receptors Dsk2 and Rad23. We show that this machinery acts between polyubiquitination of FBPase and its degradation by the proteasome.

Proteins containing ubiquitin-like (UBL) and ubiquitin-associated (UBA) domains interact with various binding partners and function as hubs during ubiquitin-mediated protein degradation. A common interaction of the budding yeast UBL-UBA proteins Rad23 and Dsk2 with the E4 ubiquitin ligase Ufd2 has been described in endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation among other pathways. The UBL domains of Rad23 and Dsk2 play a prominent role in this process by interacting with Ufd2 and different subunits of the 26 S proteasome. Here, we report crystal structures of Ufd2 in complex with the UBL domains of Rad23 and Dsk2. The N-terminal UBL-interacting region of Ufd2 exhibits a unique sequence pattern, which is distinct from any known ubiquitin- or UBL-binding domain identified so far. Residue-specific differences exist in the interactions of these UBL domains with Ufd2, which are coupled to subtle differences in their binding affinities. The molecular details of their differential interactions point to a role for adaptive evolution in shaping these interfaces.
