Structural highlights
FunctionVCIP1_HUMAN Deubiquitinating enzyme involved in DNA repair and reassembly of the Golgi apparatus and the endoplasmic reticulum following mitosis (PubMed:32649882). Necessary for VCP-mediated reassembly of Golgi stacks after mitosis (By similarity). Plays a role in VCP-mediated formation of transitional endoplasmic reticulum (tER) (By similarity). Mediates dissociation of the ternary complex containing STX5A, NSFL1C and VCP (By similarity). Also involved in DNA repair following phosphorylation by ATM or ATR: acts by catalyzing deubiquitination of SPRTN, thereby promoting SPRTN recruitment to chromatin and subsequent proteolytic cleavage of covalent DNA-protein cross-links (DPCs) (PubMed:32649882). Hydrolyzes 'Lys-11'- and 'Lys-48'-linked polyubiquitin chains (PubMed:23827681).[UniProtKB:Q8CF97][1] [2] (Microbial infection) Regulates the duration of C.botulinum neurotoxin type A (BoNT/A) intoxication by catalyzing deubiquitination of Botulinum neurotoxin A light chain (LC), thereby preventing LC degradation by the proteasome, and accelerating botulinum neurotoxin intoxication in patients.[3] Publication Abstract from PubMedVCP/p97 regulates a wide range of cellular processes, including post-mitotic Golgi reassembly. In this context, VCP is assisted by p47, an adapter protein, and VCPIP1, a deubiquitylase (DUB). However, how they organize into a functional ternary complex to promote Golgi assembly remains unknown. Here, we use cryo-EM to characterize both VCP-VCPIP1 and VCP-VCPIP1-p47 complexes. We show that VCPIP1 engages VCP through two interfaces: one involving the N-domain of VCP and the UBX domain of VCPIP1, and the other involving the VCP D2 domains and a region of VCPIP1 we refer to as VCPID. The p47 UBX domain competitively binds to the VCP N-domain, while not affecting VCPID binding. We show that VCPID is critical for VCP-mediated enhancement of DUB activity and proper Golgi assembly. The ternary structure along with biochemical and cellular data provides new insights into the complex interplay of VCP with its co-factors.
