Structural highlights
Function[PSMD1_HUMAN] Acts as a regulatory subunit of the 26 proteasome which is involved in the ATP-dependent degradation of ubiquitinated proteins. [UBB_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.[1] [2] [ADRM1_HUMAN] Functions as a proteasomal ubiquitin receptor. Recruits the deubiquitinating enzyme UCHL5 at the 26S proteasome and promotes its activity.[3] [4] [5] [6] [7] Publication Abstract from PubMedRpn13/Adrm1 is recruited to the proteasome by PSMD1/Rpn2, where it serves as a substrate receptor that binds preferentially to K48-linked ubiquitin chains, an established signal for protein proteolysis. Here, we use NMR to solve the structure of hRpn13 Pru:hRpn2 (940-953):K48-diubiquitin. Surprisingly, hRpn2-bound hRpn13 selects a dynamic, extended conformation of K48-diubiquitin that is unique from previously determined structures. NMR experiments on free K48-diubiquitin demonstrate the presence of the reported "closed" conformation observed by crystallography, but also this more extended state, in which the hRpn13-binding surface is exposed. This extended K48-diubiquitin conformation is defined by interactions between L73 from G76-linked (distal) ubiquitin and a Y59-centered surface of K48-linked (proximal) ubiquitin. Furthermore, hRpn13 exchanges between the two ubiquitins within 100 ms, although prefers the proximal ubiquitin due to interactions with the K48 linker region. Altogether, these data lead to a revised model of how ubiquitinated substrates interact with the proteasome.
