Aluminum (Al) toxicity is a major factor limiting crop production on acid soils, which represent over 30% of the world’s arable land. Some plants have evolved mechanisms to detoxify Al. Arabidopsis, for example, secretes malate via the AtALMT1 transporter to chelate and detoxify Al. The C2H2-type transcription factor STOP1 plays a crucial role in Al resistance by inducing the expression of a set of genes, including AtALMT1. Here, we identify and characterize an F-box protein-encoding gene regulation of Atalmt1 expression 1 (RAE1) that regulates the level of STOP1. Mutation and overexpression of RAE1 increases or decreases the expression of AtALMT1 and other STOP1-regulated genes, respectively. RAE1 interacts with and promotes the degradation of STOP1 via the ubiquitin-26S proteasome pathway, while Al stress promotes the accumulation of STOP1. We find that STOP1 up-regulates RAE1 expression by directly binding to the RAE1 promoter, thus forming a negative feedback loop between STOP1 and RAE1. Our results demonstrate that RAE1 influences Al resistance through the ubiquitination and degradation of STOP1.

Abstract Background F-box proteins are substrate-recognition components of the Skp1-Rbx1-Cul1-F-box protein (SCF) ubiquitin ligases. By selectively targeting the key regulatory proteins or enzymes for ubiquitination and 26S proteasome mediated degradation, F-box proteins play diverse roles in plant growth/development and in the responses of plants to both environmental and endogenous signals. Studies of F-box proteins from the model plant Arabidopsis and from many additional plant species have demonstrated that they belong to a super gene family, and function across almost all aspects of the plant life cycle. However, systematic exploration of F-box family genes in the important fiber crop cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) has not been previously performed. The genome-wide analysis of the cotton F-box gene family is now possible thanks to the completion of several cotton genome sequencing projects. Results In current study, we first conducted a genome-wide investigation of cotton F-box family genes by reference to the published F-box protein sequences from other plant species. 592 F-box protein encoding genes were identified in the Gossypium hirsutume acc.TM-1 genome and, subsequently, we were able to present their gene structures, chromosomal locations, syntenic relationships with their parent species. In addition, duplication modes analysis showed that cotton F-box genes were distributed to 26 chromosomes, with the maximum number of genes being detected on chromosome 5. Although the WGD (whole-genome duplication) mode seems play a dominant role during cotton F-box gene expansion process, other duplication modes including TD (tandem duplication), PD (proximal duplication), and TRD (transposed duplication) also contribute significantly to the evolutionary expansion of cotton F-box genes. Collectively, these bioinformatic analysis suggest possible evolutionary forces underlying F-box gene diversification. Additionally, we also conducted analyses of gene ontology, and expression profiles in silico, allowing identification of F-box gene members potentially involved in hormone signal transduction. Conclusion The results of this study provide first insights into the Gossypium hirsutum F-box gene family, which lays the foundation for future studies of functionality, particularly those involving F-box protein family members that play a role in hormone signal transduction.

ABSTRACT The ubiquitin-proteasome pathway regulates gene expression through protein degradation. Here we show that the F-box protein βTrCP, the receptor component of the SCF E3 ubiquitin ligase responsible for IκBα and β-catenin degradation, is colocalized in the nucleus with ATF4, a member of the ATF-CREB bZIP family of transcription factors, and controls its stability. Association between the two proteins depends on ATF4 phosphorylation and on ATF4 serine residue 219 present in the context of DSGXXXS, which is similar but not identical to the motif found in other substrates of βTrCP. ATF4 ubiquitination in HeLa cells is enhanced in the presence of βTrCP. The F-box-deleted βTrCP protein behaves as a negative transdominant mutant that inhibits ATF4 ubiquitination and degradation and, subsequently, enhances its activity in cyclic AMP-mediated transcription. ATF4 represents a novel substrate for the SCFβTrCP complex, which is the first mammalian E3 ubiquitin ligase identified so far for the control of the degradation of a bZIP transcription factor.

The mitochondrion is a dynamic membranous network whose morphology is conditioned by the equilibrium between ongoing fusion and fission of mitochondrial membranes. In the budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the transmembrane GTPase Fzo1p controls fusion of mitochondrial outer membranes. Deletion or overexpression of Fzo1p have both been shown to alter the mitochondrial fusion process indicating that maintenance of steady-state levels of Fzo1p are required for efficient mitochondrial fusion. Cellular levels of Fzo1p are regulated through degradation of Fzo1p by the F-box protein Mdm30p. How Mdm30p promotes degradation of Fzo1p is currently unknown. We have now determined that during vegetative growth Mdm30p mediates ubiquitylation of Fzo1p and that degradation of Fzo1p is an ubiquitin-proteasome–dependent process. In vivo, Mdm30p associates through its F-box motif with other core components of Skp1-Cullin-F-box (SCF) ubiquitin ligases. We show that the resulting SCFMdm30p ligase promotes ubiquitylation of Fzo1p at mitochondria and its subsequent degradation by the 26S proteasome. These results provide the first demonstration that a cytosolic ubiquitin ligase targets a critical regulatory molecule at the mitochondrial outer membrane. This study provides a framework for developing an understanding of the function of Mdm30p-mediated Fzo1p degradation in the multistep process of mitochondrial fusion.

Abstract The effects of acetylation on gene expression are complex, with changes in chromatin accessibility intermingled with direct effects on transcriptional regulators. For the nuclear receptors, both positive and negative effects of acetylation on specific gene transcription have been observed. We report that p300 and steroid receptor coactivator 1 interact transiently with the glucocorticoid receptor and that the acetyltransferase activity of p300 makes an important contribution to glucocorticoid receptor-mediated transcription. Treatment of cells with the deacetylase inhibitor, sodium butyrate, inhibited steroid-induced transcription and altered the transient association of glucocorticoid receptor with p300 and steroid receptor coactivator 1. Additionally, sustained sodium butyrate treatment induced the degradation of p300 through the 26S proteasome pathway. Treatment with the proteasome inhibitor MG132 restored both the level of p300 protein and the transcriptional response to steroid over 20 h of treatment. These results reveal new levels for the regulatory control of gene expression by acetylation and suggest feedback control on p300 activity.

     A normal evolution of the cell-cycle phases consists of multiple consecutive events, which makes it a highly complex process. Its preservation is regulated by Cyclin-Cdks (cyclin-dependent kinases) interactions and protein degradation, which is often controlled by the ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis.The goal of this review is to emphasize the most important features of the regulation of the cell-cycle involved in cancerogenesis, by presenting the involvement of E3 ubiquitin ligases SCF (Skp1-Cul1-F-box protein) and APC/C (Anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome) in human malignancies. Also, we discuss the importance of the ubiquitin proteasome pathway blockade in cancer treatment. We know that a better understanding of the regulatory biology of the cell cycle can lead to the development of new target therapies for cancer.

Proteasome Pathway

The ubiquitin-proteasome pathway plays a critical role in the adaptation of skeletal muscle to persistent decreases or increases in muscle activity. This article outlines the basics of pathway function and reviews what we know about pathway responses to altered muscle use. The ubiquitin-proteasome pathway regulates proteolysis in mammalian cells by attaching ubiquitin polymers to damaged proteins; this targets the protein for degradation via the 26S proteasome. The pathway is constitutively active in muscle and continually regulates protein turnover. Conditions of decreased muscle use, e.g., unloading, denervation, or immobilization, stimulate general pathway activity. This activity increase is caused by upregulation of regulatory components in the pathway and leads to accelerated proteolysis, resulting in net loss of muscle protein. Pathway activity is also increased in response to exercise, a two-phase response. An immediate increase in selective ubiquitin conjugation by constitutive pathway components contributes to exercise-stimulated signal transduction. Over hours-to-days, exercise also stimulates a delayed increase in general ubiquitin conjugating activity by inducing expression of key components in the pathway. This increase mediates a late-phase rise in protein degradation that is required for muscle adaptation to exercise. Thus the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway functions as an essential mediator of muscle remodeling, both in atrophic states and exercise training.
