Ubiquitination of the chemokine receptor CXCR4 serves as a targeting signal for lysosomal degradation, but the mechanisms mediating ubiquitination and lysosomal sorting remain poorly understood. Here we report that the Nedd4-like E3 ubiquitin ligase AIP4 mediates ubiquitination of CXCR4 at the plasma membrane, and of the ubiquitin binding protein Hrs on endosomes. CXCR4 activation promotes CXCR4 colocalization with AIP4 and Hrs within the same region of endosomes. Endosomal sorting of CXCR4 is dependent on Hrs as well as the AAA ATPase Vps4, the latter involved in regulating the ubiquitination status of both CXCR4 and Hrs. We propose a model whereby AIP4, Hrs, and Vps4 coordinate a cascade of ubiquitination and deubiquitination events that sort CXCR4 to the degradative pathway.

Circulating levels of glucocorticoids are increased in many traumatic and muscle-wasting conditions that include insulin-dependent diabetes, acidosis, infection, and starvation. On the basis of indirect findings, it appeared that these catabolic hormones are required to stimulate Ub (ubiquitin)-proteasome-dependent proteolysis in skeletal muscles in such conditions. The present studies were performed to provide conclusive evidence for an activation of Ub-proteasome-dependent proteolysis after glucocorticoid treatment. In atrophying fast-twitch muscles from rats treated with dexamethasone for 6 days, compared with pair-fed controls, we found (i) increased MG132-inhibitable proteasome-dependent proteolysis, (ii) an enhanced rate of substrate ubiquitination, (iii) increased chymotrypsin-like proteasomal activity of the proteasome, and (iv) a co-ordinate increase in the mRNA expression of several ATPase (S4, S6, S7 and S8) and non-ATPase (S1, S5a and S14) subunits of the 19 S regulatory complex, which regulates the peptidase and the proteolytic activities of the 26 S proteasome. These studies provide conclusive evidence that glucocorticoids activate Ub-proteasome-dependent proteolysis and the first in vivo evidence for a hormonal regulation of the expression of subunits of the 19 S complex. The results suggest that adaptations in gene expression of regulatory subunits of the 19 S complex by glucocorticoids are crucial in the regulation of the 26 S muscle proteasome.

p97/VCP is a member of the AAA ATPase family and has roles in both membrane fusion and ubiquitin dependent protein degradation. Here, we present a 3.6A crystal structure of murine p97 in which D2 domain has been modelled as poly-alanine and the remaining approximately 100 residues are absent. The resulting structure illustrates a head-to-tail packing arrangement of the two p97 AAA domains in a natural hexameric state with D1 ADP bound and D2 nucleotide free. The head-to-tail packing arrangement observed in this structure is in contrast to our previously predicted tail-to-tail packing model. The linker between the D1 and D2 domains is partially disordered, suggesting a flexible nature. Normal mode analysis of the crystal structure suggests anti-correlated motions and distinct conformational states of the two AAA domains.

We have used RNA interference (RNAi) to examine the functional relationship between valosin-containing protein (VCP/p97/Cdc48p/TER94) ATPase and the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) in Drosophila S2 and human HeLa cells. In both cell types, RNAi of VCP (and, to a lesser extent, of certain VCP-interacting proteins) caused significant accumulation of high-molecular-weight conjugates of ubiquitin, an indication of inhibited UPS function. However, decreased VCP levels did not directly inhibit proteasome activity. In HeLa cells, polyubiquitinated proteins accumulated as dispersed aggregates rather than as single aggresomes, even in the presence of proteasome inhibitors, which normally promote aggresome formation. RNAi of VCP caused extensive vacuolization of the cytoplasm, and proteasome inhibitors exaggerated this feature. RNAi of VCP had little effect on S2 cell proliferation but blocked cell-cycle progression and induced mitotic abnormalities and apoptosis in HeLa cells. These results indicate that VCP plays an important general role in mediating the function of the UPS, probably by interacting with potential proteasome substrates before they are degraded by the proteasome.

The ubiquitin proteasome system classically selects its substrates for degradation by tagging them with ubiquitin. Here, we describe another means of controlling proteasome function in a global manner. The 26S proteasome can be inhibited by modification with the enzyme, O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT). This reversible modification of the proteasome inhibits the proteolysis of the transcription factor Sp1 and a hydrophobic peptide through inhibition of the ATPase activity of 26S proteasomes. The Rpt2 ATPase in the mammalian proteasome 19S cap is modified by O-GlcNAc in vitro and in vivo and as its modification increases, proteasome function decreases. This mechanism may couple proteasomes to the general metabolic state of the cell. The O-GlcNAc modification of proteasomes may allow the organism to respond to its metabolic needs by controlling the availability of amino acids and regulatory proteins.

The Cdc48/p97 AAA-ATPase functions in membrane fusion and ubiquitin-dependent protein degradation. Here, we show that, in yeast, Cdc48p interacts with three novel proteins, Cuil-3p, which contain a conserved ubiquitin-related (UBX) domain. Cui2p and Cui3p are closely related, interact with each other, and are localized at the perinuclear membrane. Cdc48p binds directly the UBX domain of Cui3p in vitro. Multiple deletions of the CUI1, CUI2 and CUI3 genes confer deficiency in sporulation and degradation of model ubiquitin-protein fusions. The Cuil-3 proteins were also found to interact with Ufd3p, a WD repeat protein known to associate with Cdc48p. Together, these results indicate that the Cuil-3 proteins form complexes that are components of the ubiquitin-proteasome system.

Membrane proteins destined for the vacuolar or lysosomal lumen are typically ubiquitinated, the ubiquitin serving as a targeting signal for the multivesicular body pathway. The RING-domain ubiquitin ligase Tul1 is an integral membrane protein that modifies the yeast vacuolar enzyme carboxypeptidase S (Cps1), the polyphosphatase Ppn1/Phm5 and other proteins containing exposed hydrophilic residues within their transmembrane domains (TMDs). Here we show that Bsd2 provides an alternative ubiquitination mechanism for Cps1, Phm5 and other proteins. Bsd2 is a three-TMD protein with a PPXY motif that binds the HECT domain ubiquitin ligase Rsp5. It can thus act as a specific adaptor linking Rsp5 to its substrates. Like Tul1, the Bsd2 system recognises polar TMDs. Bsd2 also controls the vacuolar targeting of a manganese transporter and a mutant plasma membrane ATPase, and together with the ER retrieval receptor Rer1, it protects cells from stress. We suggest that Bsd2 has a wide role in the quality control of membrane proteins. Bsd2 is the yeast homologue of human NEDD4 binding protein N4WBP5, which may therefore have similar functions.

The AAA ATPase p97/VCP is involved in many cellular events including ubiquitin-dependent processes and membrane fusion. In the latter, the p97 adaptor protein p47 is of central importance. In order to provide insight into the molecular basis of p97 adaptor binding, we have determined the crystal structure of p97 ND1 domains complexed with p47 C-terminal domain at 2.9 A resolution. The structure reveals that the p47 ubiquitin regulatory X domain (UBX) domain interacts with the p97 N domain via a loop (S3/S4) that is highly conserved in UBX domains, but is absent in ubiquitin, which inserts into a hydrophobic pocket between the two p97 N subdomains. Deletion of this loop and point mutations in the loop significantly reduce p97 binding. This hydrophobic binding site is distinct from the predicted adaptor-binding site for the p97/VCP homologue N-ethylmaleimide sensitive factor (NSF). Together, our data suggest that UBX domains may act as general p97/VCP/CDC48 binding modules and that adaptor binding for NSF and p97 might involve different binding sites. We also propose a classification for ubiquitin-like domains containing or lacking a longer S3/S4 loop.

Ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis plays a pivotal role in stress responses. To investigate the mechanisms of these cellular processes, we have been studying Schizosaccharomyces pombe mutants that have altered sensitivities to various stress conditions. Here, we showed that Lub1, a homologue of Ufd3p/Zzz4p/Doa1p in budding yeast, is involved in the regulation of ubiquitin contents. Disruption of the lub1+ gene resulted in monoubiquitin as well as multiubiquitin depletion without change in mRNA level and in hypersensitivity to various stress conditions. Consistently, overexpression of genes encoding ubiquitin suppressed the defects associated with lub1 mutation, indicating that the phenotypes of the lub1 mutants under stress conditions were due to cellular ubiquitin shortage at the posttranscriptional level. In addition, the lub1-deleted cells showed aberrant functions in ubiquitin/proteasome-dependent proteolysis, with accelerated degradation of ubiquitin. Also Cdc48, a stress-induced chaperon-like essential ATPase, was found to interact with Lub1, and this association might contribute to the stabilization of Lub1. Our results indicated that Lub1 is responsible for ubiquitin homeostasis at the protein level through a negative regulation of ubiquitin degradation.

Many signaling receptors require covalent modification by ubiquitin for agonist-induced down-regulation via endocytic trafficking to lysosomes, a process that is mediated by a conserved set of endosome-associating proteins also required for vacuolar protein-sorting (VPS) in yeast. The delta opioid receptor (DOR) is a G protein-coupled receptor that can undergo agonist-induced proteolysis via endocytic trafficking to lysosomes but does not require covalent modification by ubiquitin to do so. This raises the question of whether lysosomal down-regulation of this "ubiquitination-independent" GPCR is mediated by a completely distinct biochemical mechanism or if similar VPS machinery is involved. Agonist-induced proteolysis of DOR was significantly inhibited by dominant negative mutant versions of Vps4/Skd1, an AAA-family ATPase required for a late step in lysosomal sorting of ubiquitinated membrane cargo. Furthermore, overexpression and interfering RNA-mediated knockdown indicated that lysosomal trafficking of opioid receptors is also dependent on Hrs, a VPS protein that mediates an early step in lysosomal sorting of ubiquitinated cargo. However, interfering RNA-mediated knockdown of Tsg101, a VPS protein that is essential for an intermediate step of the conserved lysosomal sorting mechanism, did not detectably affect agonist-induced proteolysis of DOR in the same cells in which (ubiquitination-dependent) lysosomal trafficking of epidermal growth factor receptors was clearly inhibited. These results indicate that opioid receptors, despite their ability to undergo efficient agonist-induced trafficking to lysosomes in the absence of covalent modification by ubiquitin, utilize some (Vps4 and Hrs) but perhaps not all (Tsg101) of the VPS machinery required for lysosomal sorting of ubiquitinated membrane cargo.
