Prompted by previous observations which suggested that the release of polymannose oligosaccharides shortly after the cotranslational N-glycosylation of proteins is a function of the ER-associated quality control system (Moore and Spiro (1994) J. Biol. Chem., 269, 12715-12721), we evaluated the effect which proteasome inhibitors have on the appearance of these free saccharide components. Employing as a model system castanospermine-treated BW5147 mouse T-lymphoma cells in which accelerated degradation of the T-cell receptor (TCR) alpha subunit takes place (Kearse et al. (1994) EMBO J., 13, 3678-3686), we noted that both lactacystin and N-acetyl-L-leucyl-L-leucyl-L-norleucinal, but not leupeptin, brought about a rapid and substantial reduction in the release of free polymannose oligosaccharides into the cytosol during pulse-chase studies, while the oligosaccharides in the intravesicular compartment remained unchanged, as measured by streptolysin O permeabilization. This inhibition was furthermore selective in that it affected solely the components terminating in a single N-acetylglucosamine residue (OS-GlcNAc(1)) and not the oligosaccharides terminating in a di-N-acetylchitobiose sequence (OS-GlcNAc(2)), which reside primarily in the intravesicular compartment. Despite the quantitative effect of the proteasome inhibitors on the cytosolic oligosaccharides, the molar distribution of the triglucosyl OS-GlcNAc(1) species was unaffected. The decrease in cytosolic oligosaccharides brought about by proteasome inhibition was reflected in a pronounced increase in the stability of the TCRalpha subunit. Our findings suggest that the N-deglycosylation and proteasome mediated degradation are coupled events. On the basis of our data and those of others we propose that the quality control mechanism involves proteasomes associated with the cytosolic side of the endoplasmic reticulum acting in concert with a membrane situated N-glycanase. Such a complex by removing the carbohydrate units could facilitate the retrograde ER to cytosol translocation of glycoproteins.

Human cytomegalovirus encodes two glycoproteins, US2 and US11, which cause rapid degradation of MHC class I molecules, thus preventing recognition of virus-infected cells by the immune system. This degradation process involves retrograde transport or 'dislocation' of MHC class I molecules from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the cytosol, where they are deglycosylated by an N-glycanase and degraded by the proteasome. At present it is unknown whether ubiquitination is required for US2- and US11-mediated dislocation and degradation of MHC class I molecules. Here, we show that in E36ts20 hamster cells, which contain a temperature-sensitive mutation in the E1 ubiquitin-activating enzyme, US11-mediated degradation of MHC class I molecules is strongly impaired at the non-permissive temperature, indicating the necessity for ubiquitination in this process. We next addressed the question of whether ubiquitination is a condition for the retrograde movement of MHC class I molecules from the ER to the cytosol, or whether ubiquitination is merely required for recognition of dislocated MHC class I molecules by the proteasome. In the absence of a functional ubiquitin system, complexes of US11 and MHC class I molecules accumulate in the ER. In this state the membrane topology of MHC class I molecules does not significantly change, as judged from proteinase K digestions. Thus the results indicate that a functional ubiquitin system is essential for dislocation of MHC class I molecules from the ER to the cytosol.

Cytoplasmic peptide:N-glycanase (PNGase) is a de-N-glycosylating enzyme which may be involved in the proteasome-dependent pathway for degradation of misfolded glycoproteins formed in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) that are exported into the cytoplasm. A cytoplasmic PNGase found in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Png1p, is widely distributed in higher eukaryotes as well as in yeast (Suzuki, T., et al. J. Cell Biol. 149, 1039-1051, 2000). The recently uncovered complete genome sequence of Arabidopsis thaliana prompted us to search for the protein homologue of Png1p in this organism. Interestingly, when the mouse Png1p homologue sequence was used as a query, not only a Png1p homologue containing a transglutaminase-like domain that is believed to contain a catalytic triad for PNGase activity, but also four proteins which had a domain of 46 amino acids in length that exhibited significant similarity to the N-terminus of mouse Png1p were identified. Moreover, three of these homologous proteins were also found to possess a UBA or UBX domain, which are found in various proteins involved in the ubiquitin-related pathway. We name this newly found homologous region the PUB (Peptide:N-glycanase/UBA or UBX-containing proteins) domain and propose that this domain may mediate protein-protein interactions.

When expressed in tobacco cells, the catalytic subunit of the dimeric ribosome inactivating protein, ricin, is first inserted into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and then degraded in a manner that can be partially inhibited by the proteasome inhibitor clasto-lactacystin beta-lactone. Consistent with the implication of cytosolic proteasomes, degradation of ricin A chain is brefeldin A-insensitive and the polypeptides that accumulate in the presence of the proteasome inhibitor are not processed in a vacuole-specific fashion. Rather, these stabilized polypeptides are in part deglycosylated by a peptide:N-glycanase-like activity. Taken together, these results indicate that ricin A chain, albeit a structurally native protein, can behave as a substrate for ER to cytosol export, deglycosylation in the cytosol, and proteasomal degradation. Furthermore, retrotranslocation of this protein is not tightly coupled to proteasomal activity. These data are consistent with the hypothesis that ricin A chain can exploit the ER-associated protein degradation pathway to reach the cytosol. Although well characterized in mammalian and yeast cells, the operation of a similar pathway to the cytosol of plant cells has not previously been demonstrated.

A cytoplasmic peptide:N-glycanase has been implicated in the proteasomal degradation of newly synthesized misfolded glycoproteins exported from the endoplasmic reticulum. The gene encoding this enzyme (Png1p) has been identified in yeast. Based on sequence analysis, Png1p was classified as a member of the 'transglutaminase-like superfamily' that contains a putative catalytic triad of amino acids (cysteine, histidine, and aspartic acid). More recent studies in yeast indicate that Png1p can bind to the 26S proteasome through its interaction with the DNA repair protein Rad23p. A mouse homologue of Png1p (mPng1p) bound not only to the Rad23 protein, but also to various proteins related to ubiquitin and/or the proteasome through an extended amino-terminal domain. This NH2 terminus of mPng1p, which is not found in yeast, contains a PUB domain predicted to be involved in the ubiquitin-related pathway. This review will focus on the primary structure and potential functions of the cytoplasmic PNGases.

A cytoplasmic peptide:N-glycanase has been implicated in the proteasomal degradation of newly synthesized misfolded glycoproteins that are exported from the endoplasmic reticulum to the cytosol. Recently, the gene encoding this enzyme (Png1p) was identified in yeast and shown to bind to the 26S proteasome through its interaction with a component of the DNA repair system, Rad23p. Moreover, a mouse homologue of Png1p (mPng1p), which has an extended N-terminal domain, was found to bind not only to the Rad23 protein, but also to various proteins related to the ubiquitin/proteasome pathway. An extended N-terminus of mPng1p, which is not found in yeast, contains a potential site of protein-protein interaction called the PUB/PUG domain. The PUB/PUG domain is predicted to be helix-rich and is found in various proteins that may be involved in the ubiquitin/proteasome-related pathway. This review will discuss the consequence of the deglycosylation reaction by peptide:N-glycanase in cellular processes. In addition, the potential importance of the PUB/PUG domain for the formation of a putative "glycoprotein-degradation complex" will be discussed.

Successful maturation determines the intracellular fate of secretory and membrane proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Failure of proteins to fold or assemble properly can lead to their retention in the ER and redirects them to the cytosol for degradation by the proteasome. Proteasome inhibitors can yield deglycosylated cytoplasmic intermediates that are the result of an N-glycanase activity, believed to act prior to destruction of these substrates by the proteasome. A gene encoding a yeast peptide:N-glycanase, PNG1, has been cloned, but this N-glycanase and its mammalian homolog were reported to be incapable of deglycosylating full-length glycoproteins. We show that both the yeast PNG1 enzyme and its mammalian homolog display N-glycanase activity towards intact glycoproteins. As substrates, cytosolic PNGase activity prefers proteins containing high-mannose over those bearing complex type oligosaccharides. Importantly, PNG1 discriminates between non-native and folded glycoproteins, consistent with a role for N-glycanase in cytoplasmic turnover of glycoproteins.

Recently, the role of N-linked glycans in the process of ERAD (endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation) of proteins has been widely recognized. In the present study, we attempted to delineate further the sequence of events leading from a fully glycosylated soluble protein to its deglycosylated form. Degradation intermediates of a truncated form of ribophorin I, namely RI(332), which contains a single N-linked oligosaccharide and is a substrate for the ERAD/ubiquitin-proteasome pathway, were characterized in HeLa cells under conditions blocking proteasomal degradation. The action of a deoxymannojirimycin- and kifunensine-sensitive alpha1,2-mannosidase was shown here to be required for both further glycan processing and progression of RI(332) in the ERAD pathway. In a first step, the Man(8) isomer B, generated by ER mannosidase I, appears to be the major oligomannoside structure associated with RI(332) intermediates. Some other trimmed N-glycan species, in particular Glc(1)Man(7)GlcNAc(2), were also found on the protein, indicating that several mannosidases might be implicated in the initial trimming of the oligomannoside. Secondly, another intermediate of degradation of RI(332) accumulated after proteasome inhibition. We demonstrated that this completely deglycosylated form arose from the action of an N-glycanase closely linked to the ER membrane. Indeed, the deglycosylated form of the protein remained membrane-associated, while being accessible from the cytoplasm to ubiquitinating enzymes and to added protease. Our results indicate that deglycosylation of a soluble ERAD substrate glycoprotein occurs in at least two distinct steps and is coupled with the retro-translocation of the protein preceding its proteasomal degradation.

Juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (JNCL) is an autosomal recessively inherited lysosomal storage disease involving a mutation in the CLN3 gene. The sequence of CLN3 was determined in 1995; however, the localization of the CLN3 gene product (Cln3p) was not confirmed. In this study, we investigated endogenous Cln3p using two peptide antibodies raised against two distinct epitopes of murine Cln3p. Identification of the liver 60 kDa protein as Cln3p was ascertained by amino acid sequence analysis using tandem mass spectrometry. Liver Cln3p was predominantly localized in the lysosomal membranes, not in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) or Golgi apparatus. As the tissue concentration of brain Cln3p was much lower than that of liver Cln3p, it could be detected only after purification from brain extract using anti-Cln3p IgG Sepharose. The apparent molecular masses of liver Cln3p and brain Cln3p were determined to be about 60 kDa and 55 kDa, respectively. Both brain and liver Cln3p were deglycosylated by PNGase F treatment to form polypeptides with almost the same molecular mass (45 kDa). However, they were not affected by Endo h treatment. In addition, it was also elucidated that the amino terminal region of Cln3p faces the cytosol.

N-glycanase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Png1) preferentially removes N-glycans from misfolded proteins. The ability of Png1 to distinguish between folded and misfolded glycoproteins is reminiscent of substrate recognition by UDP-glucose glycoprotein glucosyl transferase, an enzyme that possesses this trait. The only known in vivo substrates of Png1 are aberrant glycoproteins that originate in the endoplasmic reticulum, and arrive in the cytoplasm for proteasomal degradation. The substrate specificity of Png1 is admirably suited for this task.
