A conserved RAD6-MDM2 ubiquitin ligase machinery targets histone chaperone ASF1A in tumorigenesis.
Oncotarget 2015 October 7
Chromatin is a highly organized and dynamic structure in eukaryotic cells. The change of chromatin structure is essential in many cellular processes, such as gene transcription, DNA damage repair and others. Anti-silencing function 1 (ASF1) is a histone chaperone that participates in chromatin higher-order organization and is required for appropriate chromatin assembly. In this study, we identified the E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme RAD6 as an evolutionary conserved interacting protein of ASF1 in D. melanogaster and H. sapiens that promotes the turnover of ASF1A by cooperating with a well-known E3 ligase, MDM2, via ubiquitin-proteasome pathway in H. sapiens. Further functional analyses indicated that the interplay between RAD6 and ASF1A associates with tumorigenesis. Together, these data suggest that the RAD6-MDM2 ubiquitin ligase machinery is critical for the degradation of chromatin-related proteins.
