UBIQUITIN LIGASE TRIM32 AND CHLORIDE-SENSITIVE WNK1 AS REGULATORS OF POTASSIUM CHANNELS IN THE BRAIN A Dissertation Presented by Eugene Miler Cilento to The Faculty of the Graduate College of The University of Vermont In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Specializing in Neuroscience October, 2015 Defense Date: August 04, 2014 Dissertation Examination Committee: Anthony Morielli, Ph.D., Advisor John Green, Ph.D., Chairperson Bryan Ballif, Ph.D. Wolfgang Dostmann Ph.D. George Wellman, Ph.D. Cynthia J. Forehand, Ph.D., Dean of the Graduate College ABSTRACT The voltage-gated potassium channel Kv1.2 impacts membrane potential and therefore excitability of neurons. Expression of Kv1.2 at the plasma membrane (PM) is critical for channel function, and altering Kv1.2 at the PM is one way to affect membrane excitability. -

In yeast, Dcn1 (defective this complex (14, 15). Human cells harbor 5 Dcn1-like proteins in Cul neddylation 1 protein) functions as a scaffold-like Nedd8 termed DCNL1–DCNL5 (also named DCUN1D 1–5 for defec- E3-ligase by interacting with its Cul substrates and the Nedd8 E2 tive in Cul neddylation 1 domain-containing protein 1–5) (Fig. Ubc12.

These DCNLs have distinct amino-terminal domains, but containing a C-terminal potentiating neddylation domain but dis- share a conserved C-terminal potentiating neddylation (PONY) tinct amino-terminal extensions.

And CAND1-Dependent Remodelling of the Budding Yeast SCF Complex
ARTICLE Received 31 Jan 2013 | Accepted 20 Feb 2013 | Published 27 Mar 2013 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms2628 OPEN CSN- and CAND1-dependent remodelling of the budding yeast SCF complex Aleksandra Zemla1, Yann Thomas1, Sylwia Kedziora1, Axel Knebel1, Nicola T Wood1, Gwenae¨l Rabut2 & Thimo Kurz1 Cullin–RING ligases (CRLs) are ubiquitin E3 enzymes with variable substrate-adaptor and -receptor subunits. All CRLs are activated by modification of the cullin subunit with the ubiquitin-like protein Nedd8 (neddylation). The protein CAND1 (Cullin-associated-Nedd8- dissociated-1) also promotes CRL activity, even though it only interacts with inactive ligase complexes. The molecular mechanism underlying this behaviour remains largely unclear. Here, we find that yeast SCF (Skp1–Cdc53–F-box) Cullin–RING complexes are remodelled in a CAND1-dependent manner, when cells are switched from growth in fermentable to non-fermentable carbon sources. Mechanistically, CAND1 promotes substrate adaptor release following SCF deneddylation by the COP9 signalosome (CSN). CSN- or CAND1- mutant cells fail to release substrate adaptors. This delays the formation of new complexes during SCF reactivation and results in substrate degradation defects. Our results shed light on how CAND1 regulates CRL activity and demonstrate that the cullin neddylation– deneddylation cycle is not only required to activate CRLs, but also to regulate substrate specificity through dynamic substrate adaptor exchange. 1 Scottish Institute for Cell Signalling, Protein Ubiquitylation Unit, College of Life Sciences, University of Dundee, Dow Street, Dundee DD1 5EH, Scotland, UK. 2 CNRS, Universite´ Rennes 1, Institut de Ge´ne´tique et De´veloppement de Rennes, 2 avenue du Professeur Le´on Bernard, CS 34317, Rennes Cedex 35043, France. -
Kelch-Like Protein 2 Mediates Angiotensin II–With No Lysine 3 Signaling in the Regulation of Vascular Tonus
BASIC RESEARCH www.jasn.org Kelch-Like Protein 2 Mediates Angiotensin II–With No Lysine 3 Signaling in the Regulation of Vascular Tonus Moko Zeniya, Nobuhisa Morimoto, Daiei Takahashi, Yutaro Mori, Takayasu Mori, Fumiaki Ando, Yuya Araki, Yuki Yoshizaki, Yuichi Inoue, Kiyoshi Isobe, Naohiro Nomura, Katsuyuki Oi, Hidenori Nishida, Sei Sasaki, Eisei Sohara, Tatemitsu Rai, and Shinichi Uchida Department of Nephrology, Graduate School of Medical and Dental Sciences, Tokyo Medical and Dental University, Tokyo, Japan ABSTRACT Recently, the kelch-like protein 3 (KLHL3)–Cullin3 complex was identified as an E3 ubiquitin ligase for with no lysine (WNK) kinases, and the impaired ubiquitination of WNK4 causes pseudohypoaldosteronism type II (PHAII), a hereditary hypertensive disease. However, the involvement of WNK kinase regulation by ubiquitination in situations other than PHAII has not been identified. Previously, we identified the WNK3–STE20/SPS1-related proline/alanine-rich kinase–Na/K/Cl cotransporter isoform 1 phosphoryla- tion cascade in vascular smooth muscle cells and found that it constitutes an important mechanism of vascular constriction by angiotensin II (AngII). In this study, we investigated the involvement of KLHL proteins in AngII-induced WNK3 activation of vascular smooth muscle cells. In the mouse aorta and mouse vascular smooth muscle (MOVAS) cells, KLHL3 was not expressed, but KLHL2, the closest homolog of KLHL3, was expressed. Salt depletion and acute infusion of AngII decreased KLHL2 and increased WNK3 levels in the mouse aorta. Notably, the AngII-induced changes in KLHL2 and WNK3 expression occurred within minutes in MOVAS cells. Results of KLHL2 overexpression and knockdown experiments in MOVAS cells confirmed that KLHL2 is the major regulator of WNK3 protein abundance. -

Antagonistic Regulation of ROMK by Long and Kidney-Specific WNK1 Isoforms

New Strategies to Inhibit KEAP1 and the Cul3-Based E3 Ubiquitin Ligases
Signalling 2013: from Structure to Function 103 New strategies to inhibit KEAP1 and the Cul3-based E3 ubiquitin ligases Peter Canning*1,2 and Alex N. Bullock*1 *Structural Genomics Consortium, University of Oxford, Old Road Campus, Roosevelt Drive, Oxford OX3 7DQ, U.K. Abstract E3 ubiquitin ligases that direct substrate proteins to the ubiquitin–proteasome system are promising, though largely unexplored drug targets both because of their function and their remarkable specificity. CRLs [Cullin– RING (really interesting new gene) ligases] are the largest group of E3 ligases and function as modular multisubunit complexes constructed around a Cullin-family scaffold protein. The Cul3-based CRLs uniquely assemble with BTB (broad complex/tramtrack/bric-a-brac)` proteins that also homodimerize and perform the role of both the Cullin adapter and the substrate-recognition component of the E3. The most prominent member is the BTB–BACK (BTB and C-terminal Kelch)–Kelch protein KEAP1 (Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1), a master regulator of the oxidative stress response and a potential drug target for common conditions such as diabetes, Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease. Structural characterization of BTB–Cul3 complexes has revealed a number of critical assembly mechanisms, including the binding of an N-terminal Cullin extension to a bihelical ‘3-box’ at the C-terminus of the BTB domain. Improved understanding of the structure of these complexes should contribute significantly to the effort to develop novel therapeutics targeted to CRL3-regulated pathways. Cullin–RING ligases The multisubunit CRLs (Cullin–RING ligases) represent Specific patterns of mono- or poly-ubiquitylation are used the largest class of E3 ligase. -
