OTUD6 deubiquitination of RPS7/eS7 on the free 40 S ribosome regulates global protein translation and stress.

ABSTRACT: Ribosomes are regulated by evolutionarily conserved ubiquitination/deubiquitination events. We uncover the role of the deubiquitinase OTUD6 in regulating global protein translation through deubiquitination of the RPS7/eS7 subunit on the free 40 S ribosome in vivo in Drosophila. Coimmunoprecipitation and enrichment of monoubiquitinated proteins from catalytically inactive OTUD6 flies reveal RPS7 as the ribosomal substrate. The 40 S protein RACK1 and E3 ligases CNOT4 and RNF10 function upstream of OTUD6 to regulate alkylation stress. OTUD6 interacts with RPS7 specifically on the free 40 S, and not on 43 S/48 S initiation complexes or the translating ribosome. Global protein translation levels are bidirectionally regulated by OTUD6 protein abundance. OTUD6 protein abundance is physiologically
