Protein Targeting and Degradation • Targeting mechanism involved a peptide signal sequence • SRP (signal recognition particle) – move to ER then Gorgi lysosome, plasma membrane, transport vesicles • Amino-terminal sequence – mitochondria, chloroplast, bacterial export • Internal signal sequence – nucleus proteins • Degradation – ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis at proteasome
Glycosylation plays a key role in protein targeting In the ER leumen, signal sequence is removed, protein are folded, disulfide bond formed and many are glycosylated A donor molecule brings the oligo to Asn Tunicamycin mimics UDP-acetylglucosamine and block the first of oligo synthesis
Pathway taken by proteins destined for lysosomes, the plasma membrane, or secretion
Phosphorylation of mannose residues on lysosome-targeted enzymes (hydrolase, the best understood) in Golgi target to lysosome
Targeting of nucleus proteins Ribosomal proteins are imported into nucleus and assembled into 60s and 40s. The complete subunits are transported back to cytosol. Nuclear proteins synthesized in cytosol and imported via importin into nucleus. NLS - nucleus localization signal
Sanning EM of nucleus surface, showing numerous nuclear pores
Signal sequences that target proteins to different locations in bacteria hydrophobic + charge
Model for protein export in bacteria Soluble chaperon proteinSecB; membrane associated SecA(receptor and translocating ATPase) SecYEG form translocating complex
Cells import proteins by receptor-mediated endocytosis Some Proteins (LDL low density lipoprotein, transferrin, peptide hormone and circulating proteins) destined for degradation – bind to endocytic receptors concentrated on the protein lattice : clathrin Clathrin unit

TargetP • TargetP 1.1 predicts the subcellular location of eukaryotic proteins • The location assignment is based on the predicted presence of any of the N-terminal presequences: 1. Chloroplast transit peptide(cTP) 2. Mitochondrial targeting peptide(mTP) 3. Secretory pathway signal peptide(SP)
TargetP predictions of unannotated A. thaliana andH. sapiens sequences
Ubiquitin2004 Nobel Prize in Chemistry • Cells are continually building proteins, usingthem for a single task, and then discarding them. • Signaling or controlling proteins (eg. transcription regulators and the cyclins) - lead very brief lives, carrying their messages and then being thrown away. • Specialized enzymes - built just when they are needed, allowing cells to keep up with their minute-by-minute synthetic needs. • The approach may seem wasteful, but it allows each cell to respond quickly to constantly changing requirements.
Ubiquitin2004 Nobel Prize in Chemistry • The small protein ubiquitin plays a central role. Ubiquitin attached to obsolete proteins to dissemble. • Ubiquitin is found in all eukaryotic cells and in cells throughout your body. • The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2004 was awarded to the Aaron Ciechanover, Avram Hershko , Irwin Rosewho discovered its essential function in 1980.

SUMO(Small Ubiquitin-like Modifier) • SUMO is member of ubiquitin and ubiquitin - like superfamily • Most SUMO proteins contain tetrapeptide motif B-K-x-D/E(B: a hydrophobic residue, K: lysine and D/E: an acidic residue) • Substrate specificity is derived from ubc9 and the respective substrate motif
SUMO and Ubiquitin • Alignments of ubiquitin and SUMO-1 indicate only 18% identical in amino acid sequence • These two proteins have remarkably similar secondary and tertiary structures • Unlike the ubiquitin system, which primarily targets substrate proteins to the proteasome, SUMO-1 conjugation has diverse cellular functions
SUMO (Small Ubiquitin-like Modifier) • Unlike ubiquitin modification which targets proteins for degradation, SUMOylation 1. increases a protein's lifetime. 2. change a protein's location in the cell • SUMO modification of proteins has many functions. Among the most frequent and best studied are protein stability, nuclear-cytosolic transport, transcriptional regulation (mostly transcriptional repression).

李 水 龍(Steven Shoei-Lung Li)高雄醫學大學醫學研究所 講座教授 Daxx is a shuttle protein participating in biological functions on various subcellular localizations.Human Fas death domain-associated protein (Daxx) is a 740-amino acids protein mainly localized in nucleus. It functioned as a transcriptional repressor when associated with chromatin in nucleus.
