Attenuation of HOIL-1L ligase activity promotes systemic autoimmune disorders by augmenting linear ubiquitin signaling.

ABSTRACT: Linear ubiquitin chains, which are generated specifically by the linear ubiquitin assembly complex (LUBAC) ubiquitin ligase, play crucial roles in immune signaling, including NF-κB activation. LUBAC comprises catalytic large isoform of heme-oxidized iron regulatory protein 2 ubiquitin ligase 1 (HOIL-1L) interacting protein (HOIP), accessory HOIL-1L, and SHANK-associated RH domain-interacting protein (SHARPIN). Deletion of the ubiquitin ligase activity of HOIL-1L, an accessory ligase of LUBAC, augments LUBAC functions by enhancing LUBAC-mediated linear ubiquitination, which is catalyzed by HOIP. Here, we show that HOIL-1L ΔRING1 mice, which exhibit augmented LUBAC functions upon loss of the HOIL-1L ligase, developed systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and Sjögren's syndrome in a female-domin
