摘要
The autoantigen Ro52 is an E3 ubiquitin ligase that can ubiquitinate itself (self-ubiquitination). Recently, we showed that UnpEL/Usp4 is an isopeptidase that can deconjugate ubiquitin from self-ubiquitinated Ro52. Here, we showed that UnpEL is ubiquitinated by Ro52 in cooperation with UbcH5B in vitro. We also showed that UnpEL is ubiquitinated by Ro52 in HEK293T cells. Interestingly, a catalytically inactive UnpEL mutant was strongly ubiquitinated by Ro52 in HEK293T cells. These results suggest that wild-type UnpEL is ubiquitinated by Ro52 and deubiquitinated by itself (self-deubiquitination), while mutant UnpEL is ubiquitinated by Ro52 but not deubiquitinated by itself. In conclusion, Ro52 and UnpEL transregulate each other by ubiquitination and deubiquitination. (c) 2006 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
