چکیده

The nuclear envelope is a barrier comprising outer and inner membranes that separate the cytoplasm from the nucleoplasm. The two membranes have different physical characteristics and protein compositions. The processes governing the stability of inner nuclear membrane (INM) proteins are not well characterized. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the INM Asi1-Asi3 complex, principally composed of integral membrane proteins Asi1 and Asi3, is an E3 ubiquitin ligase. In addition to its well-documented function in endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-associated degradation, the Doa10 E3 ubiquitin ligase complex partially localizes to the INM. The Asi1-Asi3 and Doa10 complexes define independent INM-associated degradation (INMAD) pathways that target discrete sets of nuclear substrates for proteasomal degradation. Here, we report that Asi1 is rapidly turned over (t1/2≤30 min). Its turnover depends on ubiquitin-mediated degradation by nucleus-localized proteasomes, exhibiting a clear requirement for the E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme Ubc7, Cue1 and the AAA ATPase Cdc48 and co-factor Ubx1. Asi1 turnover occurs largely independently of the Asi1-Asi3 or Doa10 complexes, indicating that it is subject to quality control at the INM in a manner distinct from that of the characterized INMAD pathways.

Latency of transcription factor Stp1 depends on a modular regulatory motif that functions as cytoplasmic retention determinant and nuclear degron

The Ssy1-Ptr3-Ssy5 (SPS)-sensing pathway enables yeast to respond to extracellular amino acids. Stp1, the effector transcription factor, is synthesized as a latent cytoplasmic precursor with an N-terminal regulatory domain that restricts its nuclear accumulation. The negative regulatory mechanisms impinging on the N-terminal domain are poorly understood. However, Stp1 latency depends on three i...

Asi1 is an inner nuclear membrane protein that restricts promoter access of two latent transcription factors

Stp1 and Stp2 are homologous transcription factors in yeast that are synthesized as latent cytoplasmic precursors with NH2-terminal regulatory domains. In response to extracellular amino acids, the plasma membrane-localized Ssy1-Ptr3-Ssy5 (SPS) sensor endoproteolytically processes Stp1 and Stp2, an event that releases the regulatory domains. The processed forms of Stp1 and Stp2 efficiently targ...

Quality control of inner nuclear membrane proteins by the Asi complex.

Misfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) are eliminated by a quality control system called ER-associated protein degradation (ERAD). However, it is unknown how misfolded proteins in the inner nuclear membrane (INM), a specialized ER subdomain, are degraded. We used a quantitative proteomics approach to reveal an ERAD branch required for INM protein quality control in yeast. This bra...

INMAD: a quality control mechanism at the inner nuclear membrane

Protein quality control mechanisms protect cells from defective, mislocalized or supernumerary proteins. The clearance of those proteins is achieved by intracellular degradation pathways, among which the ubiquitin-proteasome system is a major player. In this system, proteins to be degraded are labeled through the covalent attachment of ubiquitin. This is achieved through a complex enzymatic net...

Doa1 targets ubiquitinated substrates for mitochondria-associated degradation

Mitochondria-associated degradation (MAD) mediated by the Cdc48 complex and proteasome degrades ubiquitinated mitochondrial outer-membrane proteins. MAD is critical for mitochondrial proteostasis, but it remains poorly characterized. We identified several mitochondrial Cdc48 substrates and developed a genetic screen assay to uncover regulators of the Cdc48-dependent MAD pathway. Surprisingly, w...
