The transfer of membranes from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi apparatus occurs via 50-70 nm transition vesicles which derive from part-rough, part-smooth transitional elements of the endoplasmic reticulum (TER). Vesicle budding from the TER is an ATP-dependent process both in vivo and in vitro. An ATPase with a monomer molecular weight of 100 kD by SDS-PAGE has been isolated from TER and designated as TER ATPase. The native TER ATPase has been characterized as a hexamer of six 100-kD subunits by gel filtration. The protein catalyzes the hydrolysis of [gamma 32-P]ATP and is phosphorylated in the presence of Mg2+. It is distinct from the classical transport ATPases based on pH optima, ion effects, and inhibitor specificity. Electron microscopy of negatively stained preparations revealed the TER ATPase to be a ring-shaped structure with six-fold rotational symmetry. A 19-amino acid sequence of TER ATPase having 84% identity with valosin-containing protein and 64% identity with a yeast cell-cycle control protein CDC48p was obtained. Anti-synthetic peptide antisera to a 15-amino acid portion of the sequence of TER ATPase recognized a 100-kD protein from TER. These antisera reduced the ATP-dependent cell-free formation of transition vesicles from isolated TER of rat liver. In a reconstituted membrane transfer system, TER ATPase antisera inhibited transfer of radiolabeled material from endoplasmic reticulum to Golgi apparatus, while preimmune sera did not. The results suggest that the TER ATPase is obligatorily involved in the ATP requirements for budding of transition vesicles from the TER. cDNA clones encoding TER ATPase were isolated by immunoscreening a rat liver cDNA library with the affinity-purified TER ATPase antibody. A computer search of deduced amino acid sequences revealed the cloned TER ATPase to be the rat equivalent of porcine valosin-containing protein, a member of a novel family of ATP binding, homo-oligomeric proteins including the N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion protein.

Members of the AAA family of ATPases have been implicated in chaperone-like activities. We used the archaeal Cdc48/p97 homologue VAT as a model system to investigate the effect of an AAA protein on the folding and unfolding of two well-studied, heterologous substrates, cyclophilin and penicillinase. We found that, depending on the Mg2+ concentration, VAT assumes two states with maximum rates of ATP hydrolysis that differ by an order of magnitude. In the low-activity state, VAT accelerated the refolding of penicillinase, whereas in the high-activity state, it accelerated its unfolding. Both reactions were ATP-dependent. In its interaction with cyclophilin, VAT was ATP-independent and only promoted refolding. The N-terminal domain of VAT, which lacks ATPase activity, also accelerated the refolding of cyclophilin but showed no effect on penicillinase. VAT appears to be structurally equivalent over its entire length to Sec18/NSF, suggesting that these results apply more broadly to group II AAA proteins.

In eukaryotic cells, incorrectly folded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) are exported into the cytosol and degraded by the proteasome. This pathway is co-opted by some viruses. For example, the US11 protein of the human cytomegalovirus targets the major histocompatibility complex class I heavy chain for cytosolic degradation. How proteins are extracted from the ER membrane is unknown. In bacteria and mitochondria, members of the AAA ATPase family are involved in extracting and degrading membrane proteins. Here we demonstrate that another member of this family, Cdc48 in yeast and p97 in mammals, is required for the export of ER proteins into the cytosol. Whereas Cdc48/p97 was previously known to function in a complex with the cofactor p47 (ref. 5) in membrane fusion, we demonstrate that its role in ER protein export requires the interacting partners Ufd1 and Npl4. The AAA ATPase interacts with substrates at the ER membrane and is needed to release them as polyubiquitinated species into the cytosol. We propose that the Cdc48/p97-Ufd1-Npl4 complex extracts proteins from the ER membrane for cytosolic degradation.

The ATPase Cdc48 is required for membrane fusion and protein degradation. Recently it has been suggested that Cdc48 in a complex with Ufd1 and Npl4 acts as an ubiquitin-dependent chaperone. Here it is shown that recombinant Cdc48 alone can distinguish between the native and the non-native conformation of model substrates. First, Cdc48 prevents luciferase from aggregating following a heat shock. Second, it inhibits the aggregation of rhodanese upon dilution. Third, Cdc48 binds specifically to heat-denatured luciferase. These chaperone-like functions seem to be independent of ATPase activity. Furthermore, Cdc48 can act as a co-chaperone in the Hsc70-Hsp40 chaperone system. These results show that Cdc48 possesses chaperone-like activities and can functionally interact with Hsc70. Cdc48's ability to recognise denatured proteins can also be a source of unspecific binding in biochemical interaction experiments.

A member of the family of ATPases associated with diverse cellular activities, called p97 in mammals and Cdc48 in yeast, associates with the cofactor Ufd1-Npl4 to move polyubiquitinated polypeptides from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane into the cytosol for their subsequent degradation by the proteasome. Here, we have studied the mechanism by which the p97-Ufd1-Npl4 complex functions in this retrotranslocation pathway. Substrate binding occurs when the first ATPase domain of p97 (D1 domain) is in its nucleotide-bound state, an interaction that also requires an association of p97 with the membrane through its NH2-terminal domain. The two ATPase domains (D1 and D2) of p97 appear to alternate in ATP hydrolysis, which is essential for the movement of polypeptides from the ER membrane into the cytosol. The ATPase itself can interact with nonmodified polypeptide substrates as they emerge from the ER membrane. Polyubiquitin chains linked by lysine 48 are recognized in a synergistic manner by both p97 and an evolutionarily conserved ubiquitin-binding site at the NH2 terminus of Ufd1. We propose a dual recognition model in which the ATPase complex binds both a nonmodified segment of the substrate and the attached polyubiquitin chain; polyubiquitin binding may activate the ATPase p97 to pull the polypeptide substrate out of the membrane.

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) harbors a protein quality control system, which monitors protein folding in the ER. Elimination of malfolded proteins is an important function of this protein quality control. Earlier studies with various soluble and transmembrane ER-associated degradation (ERAD) substrates revealed differences in the ER degradation machinery used. To unravel the nature of these differences we generated two type I membrane ERAD substrates carrying malfolded carboxypeptidase yscY (CPY*) as the ER-luminal ERAD recognition motif. Whereas the first, CT* (CPY*-TM), has no cytoplasmic domain, the second, CTG*, has the green fluorescent protein present in the cytosol. Together with CPY*, these three substrates represent topologically diverse malfolded proteins, degraded via ERAD. Our data show that degradation of all three proteins is dependent on the ubiquitin-proteasome system involving the ubiquitin-protein ligase complex Der3/Hrd1p-Hrd3p, the ubiquitin conjugating enzymes Ubc1p and Ubc7p, as well as the AAA-ATPase complex Cdc48-Ufd1-Npl4 and the 26S proteasome. In contrast to soluble CPY*, degradation of the membrane proteins CT* and CTG* does not require the ER proteins Kar2p (BiP) and Der1p. Instead, CTG* degradation requires cytosolic Hsp70, Hsp40, and Hsp104p chaperones.

Spindle disassembly at the end of mitosis is a complex and poorly understood process. Here, we report that the AAA-ATPase Cdc48/p97 and its adapters Ufd1-Npl4, which have a well-established role in membrane functions, also regulate spindle disassembly by modulating microtubule dynamics and bundling at the end of mitosis. In the absence of p97-Ufd1-Npl4 function, microtubules in Xenopus egg extracts remain as monopolar spindles attached to condensed chromosomes after Cdc2 kinase activity has returned to the interphase level. Consequently, interphase microtubule arrays and nuclei are not established. Genetic analyses of Cdc48, the yeast homolog of p97, reveal that Cdc48 is also required for disassembly of mitotic spindles after execution of the mitotic exit pathway. Furthermore, Cdc48/p97-Ufd1-Npl4 directly binds to spindle assembly factors and regulates their interaction with microtubules at the end of mitosis. Therefore, Cdc48/p97-Ufd1-Npl4 is an essential chaperone that regulates transformation of the microtubule structure as cells reenter interphase.

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.

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.

The AAA ATPase Cdc48/p97 together with its adaptors, Ufd1-Npl4, regulate membrane-related functions and mitotic spindle disassembly by directly binding to membrane-associated proteins or spindle assembly factors, modulating their interactions with membranes or spindles, respectively. Here, we discuss the possibility that the Cdc48/ p97-Ufd1-Npl4 complex has a more general role in mediating morphological transitions as the cell exits mitosis and enters G(1).
