Comparative proteomics reveals elevated CCN2 in NGLY1-deficient cells.

ABSTRACT: N-glycanase 1(NGLY1) catalyzes the removal of N-linked glycans from newly synthesized or misfolded protein. NGLY1 deficiency is a recently diagnosed rare genetic disorder. The affected individuals present a broad spectrum of clinical features. Recent studies explored several possible molecular mechanisms of NGLY1 deficiency including defects in proteostasis, mitochondrial homeostasis, innate immunity, and water/ion transport. We demonstrate abnormal accumulation of endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) substrates in NGLY1-deficient cells. Global quantitative proteomics discovered elevated levels of endogenous proteins in NGLY1-defective human and mouse cells. Further biological validation assays confirmed the altered abundance of several key candidates that were subjected to
