环指蛋白hocT 4是CCR 4-NOT复合物的组成部分。该复合物涉及RNA聚合酶II转录的抑制。在这里,我们证明了hocT 4作为一个泛素蛋白连接酶(E3)的功能。我们发现,独特的C4 C4环域的hocT 4相互作用的一个子集的泛素结合酶(E2)。使用NMR光谱,我们详细的相互作用的hocT 4与UbcH 5 B和表征环残基,这是至关重要的相互作用。hocT 4在体外充当有效的E3连接酶。使E2-E3界面不稳定的突变消除了这种活性。基于这些结果,我们提出了一个模型,如何E3连接酶的功能内的CCR 4-NOT复合物涉及到转录调控。
The RING finger protein CNOT4 is a component of the CCR4-NOT complex. This complex is implicated in repression of RNA polymerase II transcription. Here we demonstrate that CNOT4 functions as a ubiquitin-protein ligase (E3). We show that the unique C4C4 RING domain of CNOT4 interacts with a subset of ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes (E2s). Using NMR spectroscopy, we detail the interaction of CNOT4 with UbcH5B and characterize RING residues that are critical for this interaction. CNOT4 acts as a potent E3 ligase in vitro. Mutations that destabilize the E2-E3 interface abolish this activity. Based on these results, we present a model of how E3 ligase function within the CCR4-NOT complex relates to transcriptional regulation.
