Integrative proteomics reveals increased non-degradative ubiquitylation during CD4+ T cell activation

ABSTRACT: In spite of gathering evidence that ubiquitylation can direct non-degradative outcomes, most investigations of ubiquitylation in T cells remain focused on degradation. Here we integrated proteomic and transcriptomic datasets to establish a framework for predicting degradative or non-degradative outcomes of ubiquitylation in primary CD4+ T cells. Di-glycine remnant proteomics revealed ubiquitylated proteins, while whole cell proteomic and transcriptomic data were used to predict whether ubiquitylated proteins showed evidence of degradation. Applying this analysis to ubiquitylated proteins with functions in TCR signaling led us to the prediction that early T cell activation promotes increased non-degradative ubiquitylation. Supporting this, we observed an increase in non-proteasome targeted K29, K33 and K63 polyubiquitin chains during T cell activation, while K48 chains appeared unchanged. This study reveals over 1,200 proteins that are ubiquitylated in primary CD4+ T cells and supports the relevance of non-proteasomally targeted ubiquitin chains in T cell signaling.

Ubiquitylated H2A.Z nucleosomes are associated with nuclear architectural proteins and global transcriptional silencing

Project description:H2A.Z mono-ubiquitylation has been linked to transcriptional repression, but the mechanisms involved are not well understood. To address this, we developed a biotinylation-based approach to purify ubiquitylated H2A.Z (H2A.Zub) mononucleosomes for biochemical and genomics analyses. We observe that H2A.Zub nucleosomes are enriched for the repressive histone post-translational modification H3K27me3, but depleted of H3K4 methylation and other modifications associated with active transcription. ChIP-Seq analyses reveal that H2A.Zub-nucleosomes are enriched over non-expressed genes, and suggest that it is the relative ratio of ubiquitylated to non-ubiquitylated H2A.Z, rather than absolute presence or absence of H2A.Z ubiquitylation, that correlates with gene silencing. Finally, we observe that H2A.Zub-eniched mononucleosomes preferentially co-purify with transcriptional silencing factors as well as proteins involved in higher order chromatin organization such as CTCF and cohesin. Collectively, these results suggest an important role for H2A.Z ubiquitylation in mediating transcriptional regulation through its recruitment of transcriptional silencing factors and nuclear architectural proteins.

Calpain activity is regulated by a KCTD7–cullin 3 complex via non-degradative ubiquitination

Project description:Calpains are a class of non-lysosomal cysteine proteases that exert their regulatory functions via limited proteolysis of their substrates. Similar to the lysosomal and proteasomal systems, calpain dysregulation is implicated in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disease and cancer. Despite intensive efforts placed on the identification of mechanisms that regulate calpains, however, global regulators of calpains activity have remained elusive. Here we show that calpains are regulated by KCTD7, a cytosolic protein of previously uncharacterized function whose pathogenic mutations result in epilepsy, progressive ataxia, and severe neurocognitive deterioration. We show that KCTD7 works in complex with Cullin-3 and Rbx1 to execute atypical, non-degradative ubiquitination of calpains at specific sites (K398 of calpain 1, and K280 and K674 of calpain 2). Experiments based on single-lysine mutants of ubiquitin determined that KCTD7 mediates ubiquitination of calpain 1 via K6-, K27-, K29-, and K63-linked chains, whereas it uses K6- mediated ubiquitination to modify calpain 2. Loss of KCTD7-mediated ubiquitination of calpains led to calpain hyperactivation, aberrant cleavage of downstream targets, and caspase-3 activation. CRISPR/Cas9-mediated knockout of Kctd7 in mice phenotypically recapitulated human KCTD7 deficiency and resulted in calpain hyperactivation, behavioral impairments, and neurodegeneration. These phenotypes were largely prevented by pharmacological inhibition of calpains, thus demonstrating a major role of calpain dysregulation in KCTD7-associated disease. Finally, we determined that Cullin-3–KCTD7 mediates ubiquitination of all ubiquitous calpains. These results unveil a global mechanism and potential target to restrain calpain activity in human disease and shed light on the molecular pathogenesis of KCTD7-associated disease.

Proteomic profiling of ubiquitylated proteins in urinary exosomes

Project description:Exosomes, derived from multivesicular bodies (MVBs), contain proteins and genetic materials from their cell of origin and are secreted from various cells types, including kidney epithelial cells. In general, it is thought that protein cargo is ubiquitylated, but that ubiquitin is cleaved by specific deubiquitylases during the process of cargo incorporation into MVBs. Here, we provide direct evidence that in vivo, deubiquitylation is not essential. Ubiquitin was detected within human MVBs and urinary exosomes by electron microscopy. Protein mass spectrometry identified >6000 proteins in human urinary exosomes, 15% of which were ubiquitylated with various topologies (K63>K48> K11>K6>K29>K33>K27). Ubiquitylated proteins involved in transcriptional regulation or solute transport were significantly enriched. Non-biased analysis of over-represented motifs uncovered a significant preference for basic amino acids upstream of the ubiquitylation site. The current studies demonstrate that in human epithelial cells, deubiquitylation of protein cargo is not necessary for MVB formation and exosome secretion and highlight that urinary exosomes are an enriched source for studying ubiquitin modifications in physiological or disease states.

K29-linked unanchored polyubiquitin chains disrupt ribosome biogenesis and direct ribosomal proteins to the Intranuclear Quality control compartment (INQ)

Project description:Ribosome assembly requires precise coordination between the production and assembly of ribosomal components. Mutations in ribosomal proteins that inhibit the assembly process or ribosome function are often associated with Ribosomopathies, some of which are linked to defects in proteostasis. In this study, we examine the interplay between several yeast proteostasis enzymes, including deubiquitylases (DUBs), Ubp2 and Ubp14, and E3 ligases, Ufd4 and Hul5, and we explore their roles in the regulation of the cellular levels of K29-linked unanchored polyubiquitin (polyUb) chains. Accumulating K29-linked unanchored polyUb chains associate with maturing ribosomes to disrupt their assembly, activate the Ribosome assembly stress response (RASTR), and lead to the sequestration of ribosomal proteins at the Intranuclear Quality control compartment (INQ). These findings reveal the physiological relevance of INQ and provide insights into mechanisms of cellular toxicity associated with Ribosomopathies.

Proteasome degradative activity regulates CD8+ T lymphocyte metabolism and fate specification

Project description:Pre-effector and pre-memory cells resulting from the first CD8+ T cell division in vivo exhibit low and high rates of proteasome degradative activities, respectively. These proteasome-induced metabolic consequences were mediated in part by asymmetric segregation of Myc during cell division. Taken together, these results suggest proteasome activity as a regulator of CD8+ T lymphocyte metabolism and fate specification.

Protein abundance changes and ubiquitylation targets identified upon inhibition of the proteasome with Syringolin A

Project description:The numerous roles of the ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS) in cellular control have triggered interest in the identification of these ubiquitylation targets and their sites of ubiquitylation. For the identification of ubiquitylated proteins we employed affinity enrichment using an ubiquitin binding domains (UBAs). A change in the experimental set-up allowed for the identification of proteins that so far have been refractory to identification. We also investigated the changes in protein abundance upon interfering with the UPS by inhibition of the proteasome with the specific inhibitor Syringolin A and using a mutant overexpressing ubiquitin that cannot form K48-linked polyubiquitin chains.
