Ubiquitin-Conjugating Enzyme UBE2J1 Negatively Modulates
Feng et al. Virology Journal (2018) 15:132 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12985-018-1040-5 RESEARCH Open Access Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme UBE2J1 negatively modulates interferon pathway and promotes RNA virus infection Tingting Feng1, Lei Deng1, Xiaochuan Lu1, Wen Pan1, Qihan Wu2* and Jianfeng Dai1,2* Abstract Background: Viral infection activates innate immune pathways and interferons (IFNs) play a pivotal role in the outcome of a viral infection. Ubiquitin modifications of host and viral proteins significantly influence the progress of virus infection. Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2s (UBE2) have the capacity to determine ubiquitin chain topology and emerge as key mediators of chain assembly. Methods: In this study, we screened the functions of 34 E2 genes using an RNAi library during Dengue virus (DENV) infection. RNAi and gene overexpression approaches were used to study the gene function in viral infection and interferon signaling. Results: We found that silencing UBE2J1 significantly impaired DENV infection, while overexpression of UBE2J1 enhanced DENV infection. Further studies suggested that type I IFN expression was significantly increased in UBE2J1 silenced cells and decreased in UBE2J1 overexpressed cells. Reporter assay suggested that overexpression of UBE2J1 dramatically suppressed RIG-I directed IFNβ promoter activation. Finally, we have confirmed that UBE2J1 can facilitate the ubiquitination and degradation of transcription factor IFN regulatory factor 3 (IRF3). Conclusion: These results suggest that UBE2 family member UBE2J1 can negatively regulate type I IFN expression, thereby promote RNA virus infection.

A Drosophila Ortholog of the Human Cylindromatosis Tumor Suppressor
RESEARCH ARTICLE 2605 Development 134, 2605-2614 (2007) doi:10.1242/dev.02859 A Drosophila ortholog of the human cylindromatosis tumor suppressor gene regulates triglyceride content and antibacterial defense Theodore Tsichritzis1, Peer C. Gaentzsch3, Stylianos Kosmidis2, Anthony E. Brown3, Efthimios M. Skoulakis2, Petros Ligoxygakis3,* and George Mosialos1,4,* The cylindromatosis (CYLD) gene is mutated in human tumors of skin appendages. It encodes a deubiquitylating enzyme (CYLD) that is a negative regulator of the NF-B and JNK signaling pathways, in vitro. However, the tissue-specific function and regulation of CYLD in vivo are poorly understood. We established a genetically tractable animal model to initiate a systematic investigation of these issues by characterizing an ortholog of CYLD in Drosophila. Drosophila CYLD is broadly expressed during development and, in adult animals, is localized in the fat body, ovaries, testes, digestive tract and specific areas of the nervous system. We demonstrate that the protein product of Drosophila CYLD (CYLD), like its mammalian counterpart, is a deubiquitylating enzyme. Impairment of CYLD expression is associated with altered fat body morphology in adult flies, increased triglyceride levels and increased survival under starvation conditions. Furthermore, flies with compromised CYLD expression exhibited reduced resistance to bacterial infections. All mutant phenotypes described were reversible upon conditional expression of CYLD transgenes. Our results implicate CYLD in a broad range of functions associated with fat homeostasis and host defence in Drosophila.

A Minimum-Labeling Approach for Reconstructing Protein Networks Across Multiple Conditions
A Minimum-Labeling Approach for Reconstructing Protein Networks across Multiple Conditions Arnon Mazza1, Irit Gat-Viks2, Hesso Farhan3, and Roded Sharan1 1 Blavatnik School of Computer Science, Tel Aviv University, Tel Aviv 69978, Israel.

Abstract. The sheer amounts of biological data that are generated in recent years have driven the development of network analysis tools to fa- cilitate the interpretation and representation of these data. A fundamen- tal challenge in this domain is the reconstruction of a protein-protein sub- network that underlies a process of interest from a genome-wide screen of associated genes. Despite intense work in this area, current algorith- mic approaches are largely limited to analyzing a single screen and are, thus, unable to account for information on condition-specific genes, or reveal the dynamics (over time or condition) of the process in question. Here we propose a novel formulation for network reconstruction from multiple-condition data and devise an efficient integer program solution for it. We apply our algorithm to analyze the response to influenza in- fection in humans over time as well as to analyze a pair of ER export related screens in humans. By comparing to an extant, single-condition tool we demonstrate the power of our new approach in integrating data from multiple conditions in a compact and coherent manner, capturing the dynamics of the underlying processes. 1 Introduction With the increasing availability of high-throughput data, network biol- arXiv:1307.7803v1 [q-bio.QM] 30 Jul 2013 ogy has become the method of choice for filtering, interpreting and rep- resenting these data. -

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated. -

The Ubiquitination Enzymes of Leishmania Mexicana
The ubiquitination enzymes of Leishmania mexicana Rebecca Jayne Burge Doctor of Philosophy University of York Biology October 2020 Abstract Post-translational modifications such as ubiquitination are important for orchestrating the cellular transformations that occur as the Leishmania parasite differentiates between its main morphological forms, the promastigote and amastigote. Although 20 deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs) have been partially characterised in Leishmania mexicana, little is known about the role of E1 ubiquitin-activating (E1), E2 ubiquitin- conjugating (E2) and E3 ubiquitin ligase (E3) enzymes in this parasite. Using bioinformatic methods, 2 E1, 13 E2 and 79 E3 genes were identified in the L. mexicana genome. Subsequently, bar-seq analysis of 23 E1, E2 and HECT/RBR E3 null mutants generated in promastigotes using CRISPR-Cas9 revealed that the E2s UBC1/CDC34, UBC2 and UEV1 and the HECT E3 ligase HECT2 are required for successful promastigote to amastigote differentiation and UBA1b, UBC9, UBC14, HECT7 and HECT11 are required for normal proliferation during mouse infection. Null mutants could not be generated for the E1 UBA1a or the E2s UBC3, UBC7, UBC12 and UBC13, suggesting these genes are essential in promastigotes. X-ray crystal structure analysis of UBC2 and UEV1, orthologues of human UBE2N and UBE2V1/UBE2V2 respectively, revealed a heterodimer with a highly conserved structure and interface. Furthermore, recombinant L. mexicana UBA1a was found to load ubiquitin onto UBC2, allowing UBC2- UEV1 to form K63-linked di-ubiquitin chains in vitro. UBC2 was also shown to cooperate with human E3s RNF8 and BIRC2 in vitro to form non-K63-linked polyubiquitin chains, but association of UBC2 with UEV1 inhibits this ability. -

RNF11 at the Crossroads of Protein Ubiquitination
biomolecules Review RNF11 at the Crossroads of Protein Ubiquitination Anna Mattioni, Luisa Castagnoli and Elena Santonico * Department of Biology, University of Rome Tor Vergata, Via della ricerca scientifica, 00133 Rome, Italy; [email protected] (A.M.); [email protected] (L.C.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 29 September 2020; Accepted: 8 November 2020; Published: 11 November 2020 Abstract: RNF11 (Ring Finger Protein 11) is a 154 amino-acid long protein that contains a RING-H2 domain, whose sequence has remained substantially unchanged throughout vertebrate evolution. RNF11 has drawn attention as a modulator of protein degradation by HECT E3 ligases. Indeed, the large number of substrates that are regulated by HECT ligases, such as ITCH, SMURF1/2, WWP1/2, and NEDD4, and their role in turning off the signaling by ubiquitin-mediated degradation, candidates RNF11 as the master regulator of a plethora of signaling pathways. Starting from the analysis of the primary sequence motifs and from the list of RNF11 protein partners, we summarize the evidence implicating RNF11 as an important player in modulating ubiquitin-regulated processes that are involved in transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β), nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), and Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) signaling pathways. This connection appears to be particularly significant, since RNF11 is overexpressed in several tumors, even though its role as tumor growth inhibitor or promoter is still controversial. The review highlights the different facets and peculiarities of this unconventional small RING-E3 ligase and its implication in tumorigenesis, invasion, neuroinflammation, and cancer metastasis.

Syntaxin 16'S Newly Deciphered Roles in Autophagy
cells Perspective Syntaxin 16’s Newly Deciphered Roles in Autophagy Bor Luen Tang 1,2 1 Department of Biochemistry, Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore, Singapore 117596, Singapore; [email protected]; Tel.: +65-6516-1040 2 NUS Graduate School for Integrative Sciences and Engineering, National University of Singapore, Singapore 119077, Singapore Received: 19 November 2019; Accepted: 6 December 2019; Published: 17 December 2019 Abstract: Syntaxin 16, a Qa-SNARE (soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor activating protein receptor), is involved in a number of membrane-trafficking activities, particularly transport processes at the trans-Golgi network (TGN). Recent works have now implicated syntaxin 16 in the autophagy process. In fact, syntaxin 16 appears to have dual roles, firstly in facilitating the transport of ATG9a-containing vesicles to growing autophagosomes, and secondly in autolysosome formation. The former involves a putative SNARE complex between syntaxin 16, VAMP7 and SNAP-47. The latter occurs via syntaxin 16’s recruitment by Atg8/LC3/GABARAP family proteins to autophagosomes and endo-lysosomes, where syntaxin 16 may act in a manner that bears functional redundancy with the canonical autophagosome Qa-SNARE syntaxin 17. Here, I discuss these recent findings and speculate on the mechanistic aspects of syntaxin 16’s newly found role in autophagy. Keywords: ATG9; autophagy; autophagosome; SNARE; syntaxin 16; syntaxin 17; VAMP7 1. Introduction Vesicular membrane trafficking [1] and macroautophagy [2] are two highly conserved cellular membrane remodeling processes in eukaryotes. The former mediates the transfer of materials between membrane compartments, while the latter serves to degrade and recycle cytosolic as well as membranous cellular materials.
