Biochemical and Structural Studies of the Interaction between ARAP1 and CIN85

ABSTRACTS 

Arf-GAP with Rho-GAP domain, ANK repeat and PH domain-containing protein 1 (ARAP1), Cbl-interacting protein of 85 kDa (CIN85), and casitas B-lineage lymphoma (Cbl) play important roles in epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) internalization and recycling. In previous studies, ARAP1 was found to interact with CIN85, and their interaction attenuated the ubiquitination of EGFR. However, the molecular mechanism was still unclear. In this study, we first biochemically and structurally characterized the interaction between ARAP1 and CIN85, and found that the CIN85 SH3B domain bound to the ARAP1 PXPXXRX (except P) XXR/H/K motif with high affinity and specificity. Based on this binding model, we further predicted other potential CIN85 binding partners and tested their interactions biochemically. Moreover, our swapping data and structure alignment analysis suggested that the β2-β3 loops of the CIN85 SH3 domains and the H87ARAP1/E132CIN85 interaction were critical for ARAP1 binding specificity. Finally, our competitive analytical gel-filtration chromatography and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) results showed that ARAP1 could compete with Cbl for CIN85 binding, which provides a biochemical basis for the regulatory roles of ARAP1 in the CIN85-mediated EGFR internalizing process.

The Catalytically Inactive Mutation of the Ubiquitin-Conjugating Enzyme CDC34 Affects its Stability and Cell Proliferation

Author：Xun Liu, Yang Zhang, Zhanhong Hu, Qian Li, Lu Yang,  Guoqiang Xu     《The Protein Journal》 ABSTRACTS The ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS) plays important roles in the regulation of protein stability, localization, and activity. A myriad of studies have focused on the functions of ubiquitin ligases E3s and deubiquitinating enzymes DUBs due to their specificity in the recognition of downstream substrates. However, the roles of the most ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes E2s are not completely understood except that they transport the activated ubiquitin and form E2–E3 protein complexes. Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme CDC34 can promote the degradation of downstream targets through the UPS whereas its non-catalytic functions are still elusive. Here, we find that mutation of the catalytically active cysteine to serine (C93S) results in the reduced ubiquitination, increased stability, and attenuated degradation rate of CDC34. Through semi-quantitative proteom...

A Quasi-direct LC-MS/MS-based Targeted Proteomics Approach for miRNA Quantification via a Covalently Immobilized DNA-peptide Probe

Author：Liang Liu, Qingqing Xu, Shuai Hao & Yun Chen     《Scientific Reports》 ABSTRACTS MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play a vital role in regulating gene expression and are associated with a variety of cancers, including breast cancer. Their distorted and unique expression is a potential marker in clinical diagnoses and prognoses. Thus, accurate determination of miRNA expression levels is a prerequisite for their applications. However, the assays currently available for miRNA detection typically require pre-enrichment, amplification and labeling steps, and most of the assays are only semi-quantitative. Therefore, we developed a quasi-direct liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS)-based targeted proteomics approach to quantify target miRNA by innovatively converting the miRNA signal into the mass response of a reporter peptide  via  a covalently immobilized DNA-peptide probe. Specifically, the probe containing the targeted proteomics-...

Preparation of an antimicrobial surface by direct assembly of antimicrobial peptide with its surface binding activity

Author：Junjian Chen, Yuchen Zhu, Yancheng Song, Lin Wang,  Jiezhao Zhan, Jingcai He, Jian Zheng, Chunting Zhong, Xuetao Shi, Sa Liu, Li Ren and Yingjun Wang     《Journal of Materials Chemistry B》 ABSTRACTS Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are a broad prospect for clinical application against bacterial infections of biomaterials. However, a bottleneck exists as there is a lack of simple technology to prepare AMPs on biomaterials with sufficient activity, as the activity of AMP is dependent on the correct orientation on the biomaterial. In the present study, based on the conventional AMP (Tet213: KRWWKWWRRC) and surface binding peptide (SKHKGGKHKGGKHKG), we designed an Anchor-AMP that could be directly assembled onto the surface of the biomaterial and also showed excellent antimicrobial activity. By characterizing the surface using a quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D), contact angle, atom force microscopy (AFM) and X-ray photoelectron spectr...
