Targeted protein degradation through chemical hijacking of E3 ubiquitin ligases is an emerging concept in precision medicine. The ubiquitin code is a critical determinant of the fate of substrates. Although two E3s, CRL2VHL and CRL4CRBN, frequently assemble with proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs) to attach lysine-48 (K48)-linked ubiquitin chains, the diversity of the ubiquitin code used for chemically induced degradation is largely unknown. Here we show that the efficacy of cIAP1-targeting degraders depends on the K63-specific E2 enzyme UBE2N. UBE2N promotes degradation of cIAP1 induced by cIAP1 ligands and subsequent cancer cell apoptosis. Mechanistically, UBE2N-catalyzed K63-linked ubiquitin chains facilitate assembly of highly complex K48/K63 and K11/K48 branched ubiquitin chains, thereby recruiting p97/VCP, UCH37 and the proteasome. Degradation of neo-substrates directed by cIAP1-recruiting PROTACs also depends on UBE2N. These results reveal an unexpected role for K63-linked ubiquitin chains and UBE2N in degrader-induced proteasomal degradation and demonstrate the diversity of the ubiquitin code used for chemical hijacking.

基于 cIAP1 的降解剂通过分支泛素结构诱导降解

通过化学劫持 E3 泛素连接酶进行靶向蛋白质降解是精准医学中的一个新兴概念。泛素代码是底物命运的关键决定因素。尽管两个 E3 CRL2 VHL和 CRL4 CRBN经常与蛋白水解靶向嵌合体 (PROTAC) 组装以附着赖氨酸 48 (K48) 连接的泛素链,但用于化学诱导降解的泛素代码的多样性在很大程度上是未知的。在这里,我们表明 cIAP1 靶向降解剂的功效取决于 K63 特异性 E2 酶 UBE2N。UBE2N 促进 cIAP1 配体诱导的 cIAP1 降解以及随后的癌细胞凋亡。从机制上讲,UBE2N 催化的 K63 连接的泛素链促进高度复杂的 K48/K63 和 K11/K48 分支泛素链的组装,从而招募 p97/VCP、UCH37 和蛋白酶体。cIAP1 招募 PROTAC 指导的新底物降解也取决于 UBE2N。这些结果揭示了 K63 连接的泛素链和 UBE2N 在降解剂诱导的蛋白酶体降解中的意外作用,并证明了用于化学劫持的泛素代码的多样性。
