Transient transfection binding immunoassay co-precipitation experiment is found: precipitation Ufd1, can detect gp78, another be positioned at endoplasmic reticulum stride film ubiquitin ligase Hrd1 then detect less than, show that the interaction of Ufd1 and gp78 has specificity.The gp78 of prokaryotic expression combines with Ufd1, proves it is direct interaction between the two.
Therefore as seen, direct interaction can take place with gp78 in Ufd1, is the acting in conjunction factor of gp78.
The site that embodiment 2 mutually combines
With the pCMV-gp78-Myc plasmid of coding total length or a series of deletion mutantions respectively with pCMV-FLAG-Ufd1 plasmid co-transfection CHO-K1 cell, utilize crosslinked have the agarose particle immunoprecipitation total length of anti-Myc antibody or gp78-5 * Myc Western Blot detection afterwards Flag-Ufd1 of deletion mutantion, the 383-497 amino acid section of finding gp78 is for being essential with combining of Ufd1, after this section disappearance, Ufd1 just no longer combines with gp78.And total length or the gp78 that lacks other parts still combine with Ufd1.
In addition, with the pCMV-FLAG-Ufd1 plasmid of coding total length or a series of deletion mutantions respectively with pCMV-gp78-Myc plasmid co-transfection CHO-K1 cell, utilize crosslinked Flag-Ufd1 Western Blot detection afterwards gp78-5 * Myc that the agarose particle immunoprecipitation total length deletion mutantion of anti-Flag antibody is arranged, the 258-275 amino acid section that found that Ufd1 is for being essential with combining of gp78, after this section disappearance, Ufd1 just no longer combines with gp78, and total length or the Ufd1 that lacks other parts still combine with gp78, sees Fig. 2.
Therefore as seen, 383-497 amino acid of gp78 is essential for Ufd1 with combining of gp78 with 258-275 the amino acid of Ufd1.
Embodiment 3 Ufd1 promote the ubiquitin degraded of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase
Utilize RNA to disturb the method for (RNAi), reduce endogenous Ufd1 protein expression, handle cell, utilize the antibody mediated immunity precipitation 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase of anti-3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase, analyze its ubiquitin modification.Find that descend when Ufd1 expresses, the ubiquitinization of the 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase of sterol regulation and control obviously weakens.
Utilize the transient transfection experiment to find, cross and express the ubiquitinization that Ufd1 significantly promotes 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase, and be dose-dependence, see Fig. 3.
Therefore as seen, Ufd1 promotes the ubiquitinization and the degraded of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase.
Simultaneously, cross the degraded (Fig. 4) of expressing Ufd1 acceleration 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase.Transfection total length Ufd1 significantly strengthens the ubiquitinization of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase, and Ufd1 is combined the amino acid whose sequence deletion of necessary 268-275 with gp78, and Ufd1 has then lost the effect that strengthens the ubiquitinization of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase.Equally, total length Ufd1 quickens the 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase degraded; On the contrary, Ufd1 is combined the amino acid whose sequence of necessary 268-275 remove with gp78, Ufd1 has just lost the effect of quickening the degraded of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase.
The function of embodiment 4 Ufd1 protein binding monomer ubiquitin or poly ubiquitin
With carrying monomer ubiquitin binding site series jump (i.e. the 92nd halfcystine, the 93rd tyrosine simultaneous mutation is the Ufd1 mutant of L-Ala) Ufd1 expression vector (pCMV-FLAG-Ufd1 (MBMut) plasmid) transfectional cell, compare with contrast (Ufd1 of untransfected Ufd1 or transfection total length), obviously hinder the ubiquitinization of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase and the effect of degraded, see Fig. 5 and Fig. 6.With the Ufd1 that carries poly ubiquitin binding site series jump (i.e. the 81st glycine, the 82nd Xie Ansuan, the 83rd leucine, the 84th L-glutamic acid, the 85th phenylalanine simultaneous mutation is L-Ala) expression vector (pCMV-FLAG-Ufd1 (PB Mut)) transfectional cell, this Ufd1 mutant still promotes the ubiquitinization of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase, but hinders the degraded of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase.
Therefore as seen, Ufd1 protein binding monomer ubiquitin promotes the ubiquitinization of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase, and Ufd1 protein binding poly ubiquitin promotes the 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase degraded of poly ubiquitinization.
Expressing Ufd1 can improve the endocytosis of cell to low-density lipoprotein to embodiment 5 excessively
Stably express Ufd1 in Chinese hamster ovary cell causes the 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase protein content to descend; And the transcription factor that the cholesterol regulating metabolizing enzyme is expressed-adult form cholesterol regulation sequence conjugated protein 1 and 2 (n-SREBP-1 and n-SREBP-2) increases, and sees Fig. 7.
After having served as expression Ufd1, cell obviously increases the absorption of LDL, thereby has reflected the increase of ldl receptor (LDLR), as shown in Figure 8.
Reduce endogenous Ufd1 by RNAi and express in the human fibroblasts, cell reduces the absorption of LDL.
Therefore as seen, cross expression Ufd1 and can improve the endocytosis of cell low-density lipoprotein (LDL).
