Insights into degradation mechanism of N-end rule substrates by p62/SQSTM1 autophagy adapter

TL;DR: Molecular insights into p62 N-end rule substrate recognition are provided by solving the structures of the p62 ZZ-domain in complex with various type 1 and type 2 degrons and also show the pH dependent oligomerization of p62.
Journal ArticleDOI

The 1:2 complex between RavZ and LC3 reveals a mechanism for deconjugation of LC3 on the phagophore membrane

TL;DR: Based on the biochemical, structural, and cell-based analyses of RavZ and LC3, both distant flexible N- and C-terminal regions containing LC3-interacting region (LIR) motifs are important for substrate recognition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural and Biochemical Study of the Mono-ADP-Ribosyltransferase Domain of SdeA, a Ubiquitylating/Deubiquitylating Enzyme from Legionella pneumophila.

TL;DR: The mono-ADP-ribosyltransferase domain of SdeA is characterized and it is shown that it consists of two sub-domains termed mART-N and mart-C, which provide insight into the unusual ubiquitylation mechanism of S deA and expand knowledge on the structure-function of mono- ADP- ribosyl transferases.
Journal ArticleDOI

A novel conformation of the LC3-interacting region motif revealed by the structure of a complex between LC3B and RavZ.

TL;DR: The tandem LIR motifs located in the N-terminal region of RavZ adopt a novel β-sheet conformation and thus provide specific ionic interactions with LC3B in addition to canonical hydrophobic plugged-in interactions, which broaden the understanding of the functional repertoire of Lir motifs in autophagy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Aminopeptidases trim Xaa-Pro proteins, initiating their degradation by the Pro/N-degron pathway.

TL;DR: In this paper, specific aminopeptidases function as components of the Pro/N-degron pathway by removing Nt-Ala or NtSer and yielding NtPro, which can be recognized by Gid4-GID.
