Crystal structure of RNF168 UDM1 in complex with Lys63-linked diubiquitin, tetrameric form
Structural highlights
Disease[RN168_HUMAN] Defects in RNF168 are the cause of Riddle syndrome (RIDDLES) [MIM:611943]. Riddle syndrome is characterized by increased radiosensitivity, immunodeficiency, mild motor control and learning difficulties, facial dysmorphism, and short stature. Defects are probably due to impaired localization of TP53BP1 and BRCA1 at DNA lesions.[1] Function[RN168_HUMAN] E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase required for accumulation of repair proteins to sites of DNA damage. Acts with UBE2N/UBC13 to amplify the RNF8-dependent histone ubiquitination. Recruited to sites of DNA damage at double-strand breaks (DSBs) by binding to ubiquitinated histone H2A and H2AX and amplifies the RNF8-dependent H2A ubiquitination, promoting the formation of 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitin conjugates. This leads to concentrate ubiquitinated histones H2A and H2AX at DNA lesions to the threshold required for recruitment of TP53BP1 and BRCA1. Also recruited at DNA interstrand cross-links (ICLs) sites and promotes accumulation of 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitination of histones H2A and H2AX, leading to recruitment of FAAP20/C1orf86 and Fanconi anemia (FA) complex, followed by interstrand cross-link repair. H2A ubiquitination also mediates the ATM-dependent transcriptional silencing at regions flanking DSBs in cis, a mechanism to avoid collision between transcription and repair intermediates. Also involved in class switch recombination in immune system, via its role in regulation of DSBs repair. Following DNA damage, promotes the ubiquitination and degradation of JMJD2A/KDM4A in collaboration with RNF8, leading to unmask H4K20me2 mark and promote the recruitment of TP53BP1 at DNA damage sites. Not able to initiate 'Lys-63'-linked ubiquitination in vitro; possibly due to partial occlusion of the UBE2N/UBC13-binding region. Catalyzes monoubiquitination of 'Lys-13' and 'Lys-15' of nucleosomal histone H2A (H2AK13Ub and H2AK15Ub, respectively).[2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [RS27A_HUMAN] Ubiquitin exists either covalently attached to another protein, or free (unanchored). When covalently bound, it is conjugated to target proteins via an isopeptide bond either as a monomer (monoubiquitin), a polymer linked via different Lys residues of the ubiquitin (polyubiquitin chains) or a linear polymer linked via the initiator Met of the ubiquitin (linear polyubiquitin chains). Polyubiquitin chains, when attached to a target protein, have different functions depending on the Lys residue of the ubiquitin that is linked: Lys-6-linked may be involved in DNA repair; Lys-11-linked is involved in ERAD (endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation) and in cell-cycle regulation; Lys-29-linked is involved in lysosomal degradation; Lys-33-linked is involved in kinase modification; Lys-48-linked is involved in protein degradation via the proteasome; Lys-63-linked is involved in endocytosis, DNA-damage responses as well as in signaling processes leading to activation of the transcription factor NF-kappa-B. Linear polymer chains formed via attachment by the initiator Met lead to cell signaling. Ubiquitin is usually conjugated to Lys residues of target proteins, however, in rare cases, conjugation to Cys or Ser residues has been observed. When polyubiquitin is free (unanchored-polyubiquitin), it also has distinct roles, such as in activation of protein kinases, and in signaling.[10] [11] Ribosomal protein S27a is a component of the 40S subunit of the ribosome.[12] [13] Publication Abstract from PubMedThe E3 ubiquitin (Ub) ligase RNF168 plays a critical role in the initiation of the DNA damage response to double-strand breaks (DSBs). The recruitment of RNF168 by ubiquitylated targets involves two distinct regions, Ub-dependent DSB recruitment module (UDM) 1 and UDM2. Here we report the crystal structures of the complex between UDM1 and Lys63-linked diUb (K63-Ub2) and that between the C-terminally truncated UDM2 (UDM2DeltaC) and K63-Ub2. In both structures, UDM1 and UDM2DeltaC fold as a single alpha-helix. Their simultaneous bindings to the distal and proximal Ub moieties provide specificity for Lys63-linked Ub chains. Structural and biochemical analyses of UDM1 elucidate an Ub-binding mechanism between UDM1 and polyubiquitylated targets. Mutations of Ub-interacting residues in UDM2 prevent the accumulation of RNF168 to DSB sites in U2OS cells, whereas those in UDM1 have little effect, suggesting that the interaction of UDM2 with ubiquitylated and polyubiquitylated targets mainly contributes to the RNF168 recruitment.
