Tsg101 UEV Interaction with Nedd4 HECT Relieves E3 Ligase Auto-Inhibition, Promoting HIV-1 Assembly and CA-SP1 Maturation Cleavage.

ABSTRACT: Tsg101, a component of the endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT), is responsible for recognition of events requiring the machinery, as signaled by cargo tagging with ubiquitin (Ub), and for recruitment of downstream acting subunits to the site. Although much is known about the latter function, little is known about its role in the earlier event. The N-terminal domain of Tsg101 is a structural homologue of Ub conjugases (E2 enzymes) and the protein associates with Ub ligases (E3 enzymes) that regulate several cellular processes including virus budding. A pocket in the domain recognizes a motif, PT/SAP, that permits its recruitment. PT/SAP disruption makes budding dependent on Nedd4L E3 ligases. Using HIV-1 encoding a PT/SAP mutation that makes budding Nedd4L-dependent, we
