IKK-Mediated Regulation of the COP9 Signalosome via Phosphorylation of CSN5.

ABSTRACT: The COP9 signalosome (CSN) is an evolutionarily conserved multisubunit protein complex, which controls protein degradation through deneddylation and inactivation of cullin-RING ubiquitin E3 ligases (CRLs). Recently, the CSN complex has been linked to the NF-κB signaling pathway due to its association with the IKK complex. However, how the CSN complex is regulated in this signaling pathway remains unclear. Here, we have carried out biochemical experiments and confirmed the interaction between the CSN and IKK complexes. In addition, we have determined that overexpression of IKKα or IKKβ leads to enhanced phosphorylation of CSN5, the catalytic subunit for CSN deneddylase activity. Mutational analyses have revealed that phosphorylation at serine 201 and threonine 205 of CSN5 impairs CSN-mediat
