Abstract:
:ALIS are large, transient, cytosolic aggregates that serve as storage compartments for ubiquitin-tagged defective ribosomal products. We determined the importance of the protein p62 in the formation of ALIS and demonstrated that two domains of p62-PB1 and UBA-are essential for ALIS assembly. Those two major binding domains of p62, also known as sequestosome 1, were shown to play a critical role in the formation of autophagosomes or cytoplasmic aggregates. Specifically, the PB1 domain is essential for self-oligomerization, and the UBA domain allows p62 to bind to polyubiquitin chains or ubiquitinated proteins. After stimulation of RAW 264.7 macrophages with lipopolysaccharide, we observed a significant decrease in the number of cells with ALIS. Importantly, cells overexpressing either a PB1 mutant or UBA-deleted p62 construct also exhibited a substantially diminished number of cells containing ALIS. Since both p62 and ubiquitin are found in ALIS, we evaluated the dynamics of YFP-tagged p62 in ALIS. In contrast to the findings of a previous study that evaluated GFP-tagged ubiquitin motility in ALIS, we determined that YFP-tagged p62 has very limited mobility. Lastly, we determined that GST-tagged full-length p62 binds to Lys-63-linked polyubiquitin chains but not to Lys-48-linked chains. Overall, our findings provide insight on the essential role that p62, particularly its PB1 and UBA domains, has in the formation of ALIS.
