Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) serves a critical role in the biogenesis of secretory proteins. Folding of nascent polypeptides occurs in the ER before anterograde transport through the secretory pathway, whereas terminally misfolded secretory proteins are recognized and eliminated by ER-associated degradation (ERAD). Here, we investigated the role of the ubiquitin regulatory X (UBX) domain-containing protein Sel1p in ER quality control and transport. Mutant sel1Delta yeast displayed a constitutively active unfolded protein response and a mildly reduced rate of secretory protein transport from the ER. Immunoisolation of Sel1p from detergent-solubilized ER microsomes revealed a protein complex containing both Cdc48p and Npl4p and suggested a direct role for Sel1p in ERAD. In cells that lack Sel1p, we observed a reduction in the level of Cdc48p bound to ER membranes and a decrease in the turnover rate of two model ERAD substrates, carboxypeptidase Y* and Ste6*. In addition, we found that Sel1p and a second UBX domain-containing protein, Shp1p, associated with Cdc48p in a mutually exclusive manner. Interestingly, the association of Sel1p with Cdc48p was regulated by ATP, while the interaction of Shp1p with Cdc48p was not influenced by ATP. Based on these findings, we conclude that Sel1p operates in the ERAD pathway by coupling Cdc48p to ER membranes and that Shp1p acts in a distinct Cdc48p-dependent protein degradation pathway.

Abstract
p97/VCP (Cdc48 in yeast) is an essential and abundant member of the AAA+ family of ATPases and is involved in a number of diverse cellular pathways through interactions with different adaptor proteins. The two most characterized adaptors for p97 are p47 and the Ufd1 (ubiquitin fusion degradation 1)-Npl4 (nuclear protein localization 4) complex. p47 directs p97 to membrane fusion events and has been shown to be involved in protein degradation. The Ufd1-Npl4 complex directs p97 to an essential role in endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation and an important role in mitotic spindle disassembly postmitosis. Here we describe the structural features of the Ufd1-Npl4 complex and its interaction with p97 with the aid of EM and other biophysical techniques. The Ufd1-Npl4 heterodimer has an elongated bilobed structure that is approximately 80 x 30 A in dimension. One Ufd1-Npl4 heterodimer is shown to interact with one p97 hexamer to form the p97-Ufd1-Npl4 complex. The Ufd1-Npl4 heterodimer emanates from one region on the periphery of the N-D1 plane of the p97 hexamer. Intriguingly, the p97-p47 and the p97-Ufd1-Npl4 complexes are significantly different in stoichiometry, symmetry, and quaternary arrangement, reflecting their specific actions and their ability to interact with additional cofactors that cooperate with p97 in diverse cellular pathways.

Abstract
CDC48/p97 is an essential AAA-ATPase chaperone that functions in numerous diverse cellular activities through its interaction with specific adapter proteins. The ubiquitin regulatory X (UBX)-containing protein, PUX1, functions to regulate the hexameric structure and ATPase activity of AtCDC48. To characterize the biochemical mechanism of PUX1 action on AtCDC48, we have defined domains of both PUX1 and AtCDC48 that are critical for interaction and oligomer disassembly. Binding of PUX1 to AtCDC48 was mediated through a region containing both the UBX domain and the immediate C-terminal flanking amino acids (UBX-C). Like other UBX domains, the primary binding site for the UBX-C of PUX1 is the N(a) domain of AtCDC48. Alternative plant PUX protein UBX domains also bind AtCDC48 through the N terminus but were found not to be able to substitute for the action imparted by the UBX-C of PUX1 in hexamer disassembly, suggesting unique features for the UBX-C of PUX1. We propose that the PUX1 UBX-C domain modulates a second binding site on AtCDC48 required for the N-terminal domain of PUX1 to interact with and promote dissociation of the AtCDC48 hexamer. Utilizing Atcdc48 ATP hydrolysis and binding mutants, we demonstrate that PUX1 binding was not affected but that hexamer disassembly was significantly influenced by the ATP status of AtCDC48. ATPase activity in both the D1 and the D2 domains was critical for PUX1-mediated AtCDC48 hexamer disassembly. Together these results provide new mechanistic insight into how the hexameric status and ATPase activity of AtCDC48 are modulated.

Abstract
PEX1 is a type II AAA-ATPase that is indispensable for biogenesis and maintenance of the peroxisome, an organelle responsible for the primary metabolism of lipids, such as beta-oxidation and lipid biosynthesis. Recently, we demonstrated a striking structural similarity between its N-terminal domain and those of other membrane-related AAA-ATPases, such as valosine-containing protein (p97). The N-terminal domain of valosine-containing protein serves as an interface to its adaptor proteins p47 and Ufd1, whereas the physiologic interaction partner of the N-terminal domain of PEX1 remains unknown. Here we found that N-terminal domains isolated from valosine-containing protein, as well as from PEX1, bind phosphoinositides. The N-terminal domain of PEX1 appears to preferentially bind phosphatidylinositol 3-monophosphate and phosphatidylinositol 4-monophosphate, whereas the N-terminal domain of valosine-containing protein displays broad and nonspecific lipid binding. Although N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion protein, CDC48 and Ufd1 have structures similar to that of valosine-containing protein, they displayed lipid specificity similar to that of the N-terminal domain of PEX1 in the assays. By mutational analysis, we demonstrate that a conserved arginine surrounded by hydrophobic residues is essential for lipid binding, despite very low sequence similarity between PEX1 and valosine-containing protein.

Abstract
The AAA-ATPase (ATPase associated with various cellular activities) p97 has been implicated in the degradation of misfolded and unassembled proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ERAD). To better understand its role in this process, we used a reconstituted cell-free system to define the precise contribution of p97 in degrading immature forms of the polytopic, multi-domain protein CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator). Although p97 augmented both the rate and the extent of CFTR degradation, it was not obligatorily required for ERAD. Only a 50% decrease in degradation was observed in the complete absence of p97. Moreover, p97 specifically stimulated the degradation of CFTR transmembrane (TM) domains but had no effect on isolated cytosolic domains. Consistent with this, p97-mediated extraction of intact TM domains was independent of proteolytic cleavage and influenced by TM segment hydrophobicity, indicating that the relative contribution of p97 is partially determined by substrate stability. Thus, we propose that p97 functions in ERAD as a nonessential but important ancillary component to the proteasome where it facilitates substrate presentation and increases the degradation rate and efficiency of stable (TM) domains.

Abstract
Ubiquitin regulator-X (UBX) is a discrete protein domain that binds p97/valosin-containing protein (VCP), a molecular chaperone involved in diverse cell processes, including endoplasmic-reticulum-associated protein degradation (ERAD). Here we characterize a human UBX-containing protein, UBXD2, that is highly conserved in mammals, which we have renamed erasin. Biochemical fractionation, immunofluorescence and electron microscopy, and protease protection experiments suggest that erasin is an integral membrane protein of the endoplasmic reticulum and nuclear envelope with both its N- and C-termini facing the cytoplasm or nucleoplasm. Localization of GFP-tagged deletion derivatives of erasin in HeLa cells revealed that a single 21-amino-acid sequence located near the C-terminus is necessary and sufficient for localization of erasin to the endoplasmic reticulum. Immunoprecipitation and GST-pulldown experiments confirmed that erasin binds p97/VCP via its UBX domain. Additional immunoprecipitation assays indicated that erasin exists in a complex with other p97/VCP-associated factors involved in ERAD. Overexpression of erasin enhanced the degradation of the ERAD substrate CD3δ, whereas siRNA-mediated reduction of erasin expression almost completely blocked ERAD. Erasin protein levels were increased by endoplasmic reticulum stress. Immunohistochemical staining of brain tissue from patients with Alzheimer's disease and control subjects revealed that erasin accumulates preferentially in neurons undergoing neurofibrillary degeneration in Alzheimer's disease. These results suggest that erasin may be involved in ERAD and in Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract
To determine protein expression patterns within the central nervous system (CNS) in response to nicotine, 2-DE/MS was performed on samples from five brain regions of rats that had received nicotine bitartrate by osmotic minipump infusion at a dose of 3.15 mg/kg/day for 7 days. After spot matching and statistical analysis, 41 spots in the amygdala, 49 in the nucleus accumbens (NA), 46 in the prefrontal cortex (PFC), 36 in the striatum, and 28 in the ventral tegmental area (VTA) showed significant differences in the nicotine-treated compared with control samples. Using MALDI-TOF MS peptide fingerprinting, 14 proteins in the amygdala, 11 in the NA, 19 in the PFC, 13 in the striatum, and 19 in the VTA were identified. Several proteins (e.g. dynamin 1, laminin receptors, aldolase A, enolase 1 alpha, Hsc70-ps1, and N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion protein) were differentially expressed in multiple brain regions. By gene ontology analysis, these differentially expressed proteins were grouped into biological process categories, such as energy metabolism, synaptic function, and oxidative stress metabolism. These data, in combination with microarray analysis of mRNA transcripts, have the potential to identify the CNS gene products that show coordinated changes in expression at both the RNA and protein levels in response to nicotine.

Abstract
Caenorhabditis elegans possesses two p97/VCP/Cdc48p homologues, named CDC-48.1 (C06A1.1) and CDC-48.2 (C41C4.8), although their expression regulation and functional diversity have not yet been studied. We therefore investigated spatial and temporal expression patterns of two p97 homologues in this study. RT-PCR and Western blot analysis showed that the amount of cdc-48.1 was about twofold of that of cdc-48.2 in adults and that two p97 homologues were induced by ER stress. The amount of cdc-48.1 mRNA did not increase in the cdc-48.2 deletion mutant and vice versa. In situ hybridization showed that two p97 homologues are mainly expressed in germ cells. In vivo expression analysis by using GFP translational fusion constructs revealed that CDC-48.1::GFP was expressed from embryos through to adult worms, while CDC-48.2::GFP was expressed mainly in embryos. These results suggest that the expression of two p97 homologues of C. elegans is differently regulated and independent of each other.

Abstract
Therapeutic strategies focused on kinase inhibition rely heavily on surrogate measures of kinase inhibition obtained from in vitro assay systems. There is a need to develop methodology that will facilitate measurement of kinase inhibitor activity or specificity in tissue samples from whole animals treated with these compounds. Many of the current methods are limited by the use of antibodies, many of which do not cross-react between several species. The proteomics approach described herein has the potential to reveal novel tissue substrates, potential new pathway interconnections, and inhibitor specificity by monitoring differences in protein phosphorylation. We used the protein kinase inhibitor H89 (N-(2-[p-bromocinnamylamino]-ethyl)-5-isoquinolinesulfonamide) as a tool to determine whether differential profiling of tissue phosphoproteins can be used to detect treatment-related effects of a protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitor in vivo. With a combination of phosphoprotein column enrichment, high-throughput two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, differential gel staining with Pro-Q Diamond/SYPRO Ruby, statistical analysis, and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization/time of flight mass spectrometry analysis, we were able to show clear differences between the phosphoprotein profiles of rat liver protein extract from control and treated animals. Moreover, several proteins that show a potential change in phosphorylation were previously identified as PKA substrates or have putative PKA phosphorylation sites. The data presented support the use of differential proteomic methods to measure effects of kinase inhibitor treatment on protein phosphorylation in vivo.

Abstract
Legionella pneumophila translocates multiple bacterial effector proteins into host cells to direct formation of a replication vacuole for the bacterium. The emerging consensus is that formation of this compartment involves recruitment of membrane material that traffics between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi. To investigate this model, a targeted approach was used to knock down expression of proteins involved in membrane trafficking, using RNA interference in Drosophila cells. Surprisingly, few single knockdowns of ER–Golgi transport proteins decreased L. pneumophila replication. By analyzing double-stranded RNAs in pairs, combinations were identified that together caused defects in intracellular replication, consistent with the model that membrane traffic funnels into the replication vacuole from multiple sources. In particular, simultaneous depletion of the intermediate compartment and Golgi-tethering factor transport protein particle together with the ER SNARE protein Sec22 reduced replication efficiency, indicating that introduction of lesions at distinct sites in the secretory system reduces replication efficiency. In contrast to knockdowns in secretory traffic, which required multiple simultaneous hits, knockdown of single cytosolic components of ER-associated degradation, including Cdc48/p97 and associated cofactors, was sufficient to inhibit intracellular replication. The requirement for the Cdc48/p97 complex was conserved in mammalian cells, in which replication vacuoles showed intense recruitment of ubiquitinated proteins, the preferred substrates of Cdc48/p97. This complex promoted dislocation of both ubiquitinated proteins and bacterial effectors from the replication vacuole, consistent with the model that maintenance of high-level replication requires surveillance of the vacuole surface. This work demonstrates that L. pneumophila has the ability to gain access to multiple sites in the secretory system and provides the first evidence for a role of the Cdc48/p97 complex in promoting intracellular replication of pathogens and maintenance of replication vacuoles. Legionella pneumophila is a pathogenic bacterium that causes Legionnaires pneumonia. Immune cells, called macrophages, engulf the bacterium and attempt to kill it. Legionella avoids this killing and instead grows inside the macrophage, creating a growth niche using host cell components. The bacterium directs the formation of its replication niche by injecting bacterial proteins, called effectors, into the host cell. These effectors hijack host functions. In this study, the authors identify some of the host pathways that the bacterium hijacks. The authors used macrophage-like cells derived from fruit flies because protein function can be disrupted in these cells using a technique called RNA interference, which destroys the RNA messages that encode for proteins, resulting in directed loss of these proteins. Candidate proteins were chosen to disrupt based upon previous knowledge about the biology of Legionella. This report highlights two observations that contribute to our understanding of the biology of Legionella. Surprisingly, the absence of some host components could be tolerated because other host components could take their place. One exception to this rule was a protein complex on the outside of the Legionella replication vacuole that may help the bacterium deliver its proteins to appropriate sites in the host cell.

Abstract
Protein degradation mediated by the ubiquitin/proteasome system is essential for the elimination of misfolded proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to adapt to ER stress. It has been reported that the AAA ATPase p97/VCP/CDC48 is required in this pathway for protein dislocation across the ER membrane and subsequent ubiquitin dependent degradation by the 26S proteasome in the cytosol. Throughout ER-associated protein degradation, p97 cooperates with a binary Ufd1/Npl4-complex. In Caenorhabditis elegans two homologs of p97, designated CDC-48.1 and CDC-48.2, exist. Our results indicate that both p97 homologs interact with UFD-1/NPL-4 in a similar CDC-48(UFD-1/NPL-4) complex. RNAi mediated depletion of the corresponding genes induces ER stress resulting in hypersensitivity to conditions which induce increased levels of unfolded proteins in the ER lumen. Together, these data suggest an evolutionarily conserved retro-translocation machinery at the endoplasmic reticulum.

Abstract
The AAA+ATPase p97/VCP, helped by adaptor proteins, exerts its essential role in cellular events such as endoplasmic reticulum-associated protein degradation or the reassembly of Golgi, ER and the nuclear envelope after mitosis. Here, we report the three-dimensional cryo-electron microscopy structures at approximately 20 Angstroms resolution in two nucleotide states of the endogenous hexameric p97 in complex with a recombinant p47 trimer, one of the major p97 adaptor proteins involved in membrane fusion. Depending on the nucleotide state, we observe the p47 trimer to be in two distinct arrangements on top of the p97 hexamer. By combining the EM data with NMR and other biophysical measurements, we propose a model of ATP-dependent p97(N) domain motions that lead to a rearrangement of p47 domains, which could result in the disassembly of target protein complexes.

Abstract
p97 (VCP, Cdc48), a type II AAA+ ATPase family member, is ubiquitous, essential, highly abundant, and involved in a diverse range of biological functions with roles in membrane fusion, endoplasmic-reticulum associated degradation, transcriptional activation, and cell cycle control. As such, dysfunction of this protein has serious pathological consequences and has been implicated in a variety of cancers and neurodegenerative diseases. p97 has a large number of adaptor proteins through which it transmits energy from ATPase activity to conformational changes which are then exerted onto target proteins. p97 has been studied by a variety of biochemical and structural techniques at various resolutions and stages throughout its ATPase cycle. From these studies, many models have been proposed and consequently a single model for p97's action cannot be suggested. Many questions about the mechanism of p97 still remain, including whether the protomers act in a concerted manner and crucially how the induced changes in p97 are transmitted to its adaptor proteins and target substrates. The elucidation of p97's mechanism is not only important in furthering our knowledge of this intriguing protein and its many functions, but subsequently in the development of potential therapies for diseases associated with p97 dysfunction.

Abstract
The serine/threonine kinase Akt is a key mediator of cell survival and growth, but its precise mechanism of action, and more specifically, the nature of its signaling partners largely remain to be elucidated. We show, using a proteomics-based approach, that the valosin-containing protein (VCP), a member of the AAA (ATPases associated with a variety of cellular activities) family, is a target of Akt signaling. SDS-PAGE of Akt co-immunoprecipitated proteins obtained from MCF-7 breast cancer cells revealed the increase of a 97-kDa band under Akt activation. Mass spectrometry analysis allowed the identification of VCP, and we have shown a serine/threonine phosphorylation on an Akt consensus site upon activation by growth factors. Site-directed mutagenesis identified Ser-351, Ser-745, and Ser-747 as Akt phosphorylation sites on VCP. Confocal microscopy indicated a co-localization between Akt and VCP upon Akt stimulation. Interestingly, small interfering RNA against VCP induced an inhibition of the growth factor-induced activation of NF-kappaB and a potent pro-apoptotic effect. Together, these data identify VCP as an essential target of Akt signaling.

Abstract
Arginine/lysine-rich motifs typically function as targeting signals for the translocation of proteins to the nucleus. Here, we demonstrate that such a motif consisting of four basic amino acids in the polyglutamine protein ataxin-3 (Atx-3) serves as a recognition site for the interaction with the molecular chaperone VCP. Through this interaction, VCP modulates the fibrillogenesis of pathogenic forms of Atx-3 in a concentration-dependent manner, with low concentrations of VCP stimulating fibrillogenesis and excess concentrations suppressing it. No such effect was observed with a mutant Atx-3 variant, which does not contain a functional VCP interaction motif. Strikingly, a stretch of four basic amino acids in the ubiquitin chain assembly factor E4B was also discovered to be critical for VCP binding, indicating that arginine/lysine-rich motifs might be generally utilized by VCP for the targeting of proteins. In vivo studies with Drosophila models confirmed that VCP selectively modulates aggregation and neurotoxicity induced by pathogenic Atx-3. Together, these results define the VCP-Atx-3 association as a potential target for therapeutic intervention and suggest that it might influence the progression of spinocerebellar ataxia type 3.

Abstract
Slow Wallerian degeneration (Wld(S)) mutant mice express a chimeric nuclear protein that protects sick or injured axons from degeneration. The C-terminal region, derived from NAD(+) synthesizing enzyme Nmnat1, is reported to confer neuroprotection in vitro. However, an additional role for the N-terminal 70 amino acids (N70), derived from multiubiquitination factor Ube4b, has not been excluded. In wild-type Ube4b, N70 is part of a sequence essential for ubiquitination activity but its role is not understood. We report direct binding of N70 to valosin-containing protein (VCP; p97/Cdc48), a protein with diverse cellular roles including a pivotal role in the ubiquitin proteasome system. Interaction with Wld(S) targets VCP to discrete intranuclear foci where ubiquitin epitopes can also accumulate. Wld(S) lacking its N-terminal 16 amino acids (N16) neither binds nor redistributes VCP, but continues to accumulate in intranuclear foci, targeting its intrinsic NAD(+) synthesis activity to these same foci. Wild-type Ube4b also requires N16 to bind VCP, despite a more C-terminal binding site in invertebrate orthologues. We conclude that N-terminal sequences of Wld(S) protein influence the intranuclear location of both ubiquitin proteasome and NAD(+) synthesis machinery and that an evolutionary recent sequence mediates binding of mammalian Ube4b to VCP.

Abstract
Cdc48 (p97/VCP) is an AAA-ATPase molecular chaperone whose cellular functions are facilitated by its interaction with ubiquitin binding cofactors (e.g., Npl4-Ufd1 and Shp1). Several studies have shown that Saccharomyces cerevisiae Doa1 (Ufd3/Zzz4) and its mammalian homologue, PLAA, interact with Cdc48. However, the function of this interaction has not been determined, nor has a physiological link between these proteins been demonstrated. Herein, we demonstrate that Cdc48 interacts directly with the C-terminal PUL domain of Doa1. We find that Doa1 possesses a novel ubiquitin binding domain (we propose the name PFU domain, for PLAA family ubiquitin binding domain), which appears to be necessary for Doa1 function. Our data suggest that the PUL and PFU domains of Doa1 promote the formation of a Doa1-Cdc48-ubiquitin ternary complex, potentially allowing for the recruitment of ubiquitinated proteins to Cdc48. DOA1 and CDC48 mutations are epistatic, suggesting that their interaction is physiologically relevant. Lastly, we provide evidence of functional conservation within the PLAA family by showing that a human-yeast chimera binds to ubiquitin and complements doa1Delta phenotypes in yeast. Combined, our data suggest that Doa1 plays a physiological role as a ubiquitin binding cofactor of Cdc48 and that human PLAA may play an analogous role via its interaction with p97/VCP.

Abstract
Cdc48/p97, a member of the AAA (ATPase associated with various cellular activities) ATPase family, participates in various cellular pathways including membrane fusion, protein folding/unfolding, proteolysis-dependent transcriptional control, protein degradation, and spindle disassembly. How Cdc48/p97 can perform such diverse functions is unclear, but the recently established connection between components of the ubiquitination system and various p97 activities suggests that these seemingly unrelated processes mediated by Cdc48/p97 may all be governed by ubiquitin.

Abstract
Proteins mediate their biological function through interactions with other proteins. Therefore, the systematic identification and characterization of protein-protein interactions have become a powerful proteomic strategy to understand protein function and comprehensive cellular regulatory networks. For the screening of valosin-containing protein, carboxyl terminus of Hsp70-interacting protein (CHIP), and amphiphysin II interaction partners, we utilized a membrane-based array technology that allows the identification of human protein-protein interactions with crude bacterial cell extracts. Many novel interaction pairs such as valosin-containing protein/autocrine motility factor receptor, CHIP/caytaxin, or amphiphysin II/DLP4 were identified and subsequently confirmed by pull-down, two-hybrid and co-immunoprecipitation experiments. In addition, assays were performed to validate the interactions functionally. CHIP e.g. was found to efficiently polyubiquitinate caytaxin in vitro, suggesting that it might influence caytaxin degradation in vivo. Using peptide arrays, we also identified the binding motifs in the proteins DLP4, XRCC4, and fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase, which are crucial for the association with the Src homology 3 domain of amphiphysin II. Together these studies indicate that our human proteome array technology permits the identification of protein-protein interactions that are functionally involved in neurodegenerative disease processes, the degradation of protein substrates, and the transport of membrane vesicles.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) has a characteristic polygonal structure with hallmark three-way junctions. In a previous paper, we reconstituted the disruption of the pre-existing ER network using mitotic cytosol from HeLa cells in streptolysin O (SLO)-permeabilized CHO-HSP cells (stably expressing GFP-HSP47). In addition, we found that interphase cytosol induced reformation of the disrupted ER network into a continuous network structure. Here, we show that the reformation of the ER network is accomplished through two sequential fusion reactions. The first process is mediated by NSF/alpha and gamma-SNAPs, and involves the generation of typical membranous intermediate structures that connect the disrupted ER tubules. A subsequent fusion is mediated by p97/p47/VCIP135, which has been shown to be required for homotypic fusion events in Golgi cisternae regrowth after mitosis. In addition, we also found that both fusion processes involve the t-SNARE, syntaxin 18.

Abstract
An AAA-ATPase (ATPases Associated with a Variety of Cellular Activities) localized to the plasma membrane of soybean (Glycine max) was isolated, partially sequenced and cloned (SBPM AAA-ATPase). The protein with an apparent monomer molecular mass of about 97 kDa was isolated using a combination of anion exchange, preparative SDS-PAGE, reverse phase HPLC, and ATP affinity chromatography. The cDNA for the full-length SBPM AAA-ATPase was cloned by screening an expression library using an antibody against the highly conserved Walker B AAA-ATP-binding motif. Northern blot analysis detected one transcript of approximately 2700 bp. The full-length cDNA sequence was that previously obtained (GenBank Database; U20213) encoding a protein with two copies of the conserved AAA-ATP-binding motif and regions of sequence homology with other AAA-ATPases. Electron microscopic preparations of the recombinant SBPM AAA-ATPase revealed hexamers typically formed by these proteins. The cloned and expressed protein was identical to the protein isolated from the soybean plasma membrane as confirmed using antisera raised to a non-conserved region of the derived protein sequence and by N-terminal sequencing of peptides derived from the isolated protein.

Abstract
Valosin-containing protein (p97/VCP) has been proposed as playing crucial roles in a variety of physiological and pathological processes such as cancer and neurodegeneration. We previously showed that VCP(K524A), an ATPase activity-negative VCP mutant, induced vacuolization, accumulation of ubiquitinated proteins, and cell death, phenotypes commonly observed in neurodegenerative disorders. However, any regulatory mechanism of its ATPase activity has not yet been clarified. Here, we show that oxidative stress readily inactivates VCP ATPase activity. With liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry, we found that at least three cysteine residues were modified by oxidative stress. Of them, the 522nd cysteine (Cys-522) was identified as the site responsible for the oxidative inactivation of VCP. VCP(C522T), a single-amino acid substitution mutant from cysteine to threonine, conferred almost complete resistance to the oxidative inactivation. In response to oxidative stress, VCP strengthened the interaction with Npl4 and Ufd1, both of which are essential in endoplasmic reticulum-associated protein degradation. Cys-522 is located in the second ATP binding motif and is highly conserved in multicellular but not unicellular organisms. Cdc48p (yeast VCP) has threonine in the corresponding amino acid, and it showed resistance to the oxidative inactivation in vitro. Furthermore, a yeast mutant (delta cdc48 + cdc48[T532C]) was shown to be susceptible to oxidants-induced growth inhibition and cell death. These results clearly demonstrate that VCP ATPase activity is regulated by the oxidative modification of the Cys-522 residue. This regulatory mechanism may play a key role in the conversion of oxidative stress to endoplasmic reticulum stress response in multicellular organisms and also in the pathological process of various neurodegenerative disorders.

Abstract
Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3)) receptors form tetrameric, IP(3)-gated channels in endoplasmic reticulum membranes that govern the release of Ca(2+) from this organelle. In response to activation of certain G protein-coupled receptors that persistently elevate IP(3) concentration, IP(3) receptors are ubiquitinated and degraded by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. IP(3) receptor ubiquitination is mediated by the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme, (mam)Ubc7, a component of the endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation pathway. However, the mechanism by which ubiquitinated IP(3) receptors are transferred to the proteasome is not known. Here, we examine this process and show in several mammalian cell types that the ATPase p97 associates with IP(3) receptors in response to hormonal stimuli that induce IP(3) receptor ubiquitination. To examine the functional relevance of the p97 interaction with IP(3) receptors, we stably and specifically reduced p97 protein levels by 62 +/- 3% in Rat-1 fibroblasts using RNA interference. In these cells, endothelin-1-induced IP(3) receptor degradation was markedly retarded and the accumulation of ubiquitinated IP(3) receptors was markedly enhanced. These effects were reversed by expression of exogenous p97. In addition, Ufd1 and Npl4, which complex with p97, also associated with IP(3) receptors upon hormonal stimulation. We conclude that the p97-Ufd1-Npl4 complex couples ubiquitinated IP(3) receptors to proteasomal degradation and, thus, plays a key role in IP(3) receptor processing. These data also establish that the p97-Ufd1-Npl4 complex mediates endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation in mammalian cells.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) has a characteristic complex polygonal structure with hallmark three-way junctions in many types of cells. To investigate the mechanisms responsible for maintaining the ER network, we established ER disassembly and reassembly assays in semi-intact Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells that constitutively expressed heat shock protein-47 fused to the green fluorescent protein (GFP-HSP47) as an ER marker (the cells are referred to as CHO-HSP cells). Using these assays, we found that maintenance of the ER network required cytosol and adenosine triphosphate/guanosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP/GTP) hydrolysis, but not actin filaments or microtubules. We also showed that the ER network was disrupted upon addition of either N-ethylmaleimide-treated cytosol after washing semi-intact cells with high salt solution or mitotic cytosol in nocodazole-treated semi-intact CHO-HSP cells. The disrupted ER network induced by mitotic cytosol was reformed by the addition of interphase cytosol. In addition, we found that p47, a cofactor of p97, was essential for the maintenance of the ER network, and that phosphorylation of p47 by cdc2 kinase resulted in ER network disruption by mitotic cytosol. Taken together, these results imply that the maintenance of the ER network requires a membrane fusion process mediated by p97/p47, and that cell cycle-dependent morphological changes of the ER network are regulated through phosphorylation/dephosphorylation of p47.

Abstract
Acceleration of liver regeneration could be of great clinical benefit in various liver-associated diseases. However, at present little is known about therapeutic interventions to enhance this regenerative process. Our limited understanding and the complexity of the mechanisms involved have prevented the identification of new targets for treatment. Here we propose a broad-range proteomic approach to this problem that makes possible the simultaneous study of different signaling and metabolic pathways on the liver proteome. Changes in protein expression in mouse livers (n = 5 per group) at 6 h and 12 h after partial hepatectomy and sham operation, as compared to untreated controls, were analyzed using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, mass spectrometry (MS), and mass fingerprinting. Twelve proteins, identified by MS, were up-regulated by at least 2-fold after partial hepatectomy. These included adipose differentiation-related protein, gamma-actin, enoyl coenzyme A hydratase 1, serum amyloid A and eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3. These results indicate that liver regeneration following partial hepatectomy affects various signaling and metabolic pathways.

Abstract
Valosin-containing protein (VCP)/p97 is an AAA family ATPase that has been implicated in the removal of misfolded proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum and in membrane fusion. p97 forms a homohexamer whose protomers consist of an N-terminal (N) domain responsible for binding to effector proteins, followed by two AAA ATPase domains, D1 and D2. Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) measurements of p97 in the presence of AMP-PNP (ATP state), ADP-AlF(x) (hydrolysis transition state), ADP, or no nucleotide reveal major changes in the positions of the N domains with respect to the hexameric ring during the ATP hydrolysis cycle. Nucleotide binding and hydrolysis experiments indicate that D2 inhibits nucleotide exchange by D1. The data suggest that the conversion of the chemical energy of ATP hydrolysis into mechanical work on substrates involves transmission of conformational changes generated by D2 through D1 to move N.

Abstract
V-ATPases acidify multiple organelles, and yeast mutants lacking V-ATPase activity exhibit a distinctive set of growth defects. To better understand the requirements for organelle acidification and the basis of these growth phenotypes, approximately 4700 yeast deletion mutants were screened for growth defects at pH 7.5 in 60 mm CaCl(2). In addition to 13 of 16 mutants lacking known V-ATPase subunits or assembly factors, 50 additional mutants were identified. Sixteen of these also grew poorly in nonfermentable carbon sources, like the known V-ATPase mutants, and were analyzed further. The cwh36Delta mutant exhibited the strongest phenotype; this mutation proved to disrupt a previously uncharacterized V-ATPase subunit. A small subset of the mutations implicated in vacuolar protein sorting, vps34Delta, vps15Delta, vps45Delta, and vps16Delta, caused both Vma- growth phenotypes and lower V-ATPase activity in isolated vacuoles, as did the shp1Delta mutation, implicated in both protein sorting and regulation of the Glc7p protein phosphatase. These proteins may regulate V-ATPase targeting and/or activity. Eight mutants showed a Vma- growth phenotype but no apparent defect in vacuolar acidification. Like V-ATPase-deficient mutants, most of these mutants rely on calcineurin for growth, particularly at high pH. A requirement for constitutive calcineurin activation may be the predominant physiological basis of the Vma- growth phenotype.

Abstract
Human Fas-associated factor 1 (hFAF1) is a novel protein having multiubiquitin-related domains. We investigated the cellular functions of hFAF1 and found that valosin-containing protein (VCP), the multiubiquitin chain-targeting factor in the degradation of the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway, is a binding partner of hFAF1. hFAF1 is associated with the ubiquitinated proteins via the newly identified N-terminal UBA domain and with VCP via the C-terminal UBX domain. The overexpression of hFAF1 and a truncated UBA domain inhibited the degradation of ubiquitinated proteins and increased cell death. These results suggest that hFAF1 binding to ubiquitinated protein and VCP is involved in the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. We hypothesize that hFAF1 may serve as a scaffolding protein that regulates protein degradation in the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway.

Abstract
The Golgi apparatus in animal cells breaks down at the onset of mitosis and is later rebuilt in the two daughter cells. Two AAA ATPases, NSF and p97/VCP, have been implicated in regulating membrane fusion steps that lead to regrowth of Golgi cisternae from mitotic fragments. NSF dissociates complexes of SNARE proteins, thereby reactivating them to mediate membrane fusion. However, NSF has a second function in regulating SNARE pairing together with the ubiquitin-like protein GATE-16. p97/VCP, on the other hand, is involved in a cycle of ubiquitination and deubiquitination of an unknown target that governs Golgi membrane dynamics. Here, these findings are reviewed and discussed in the context of the increasingly evident role of ubiquitin in membrane traffic processes.

Abstract
The AAA (ATPase associated with various cellular activities) ATPase, p97, is a hexameric protein of chaperone-like function, which has been reported to interact with a number of proteins of seemingly unrelated functions. For the first time, we report a classification of these proteins and aim to elucidate any common structural or functional features they may share. The interactors are grouped into those containing ubiquitin regulatory X domains, which presumably bind to p97 in the same way as the p47 adaptor, and into non-ubiquitin regulatory X domain proteins of different functional subgroups that may employ a different mode of interaction (assuming they also bind directly to p97 and are not experimental artifacts). Future studies will show whether interacting proteins direct p97 to different cellular pathways or a common one and structural elucidation of these interactions will be crucial in understanding these underlying functions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The search for the dengue virus receptor has generated many candidates often identified only by molecular mass. The wide host range of the viruses in vitro combined with multiple approaches to identifying the receptor(s) has led to the notion that many receptors or attachment proteins may be involved and that the different dengue virus serotypes may utilize different receptors on the same cells as well as on different cell types. RESULTS In this study we used sequential extraction of PS Clone D cell monolayers with the detergent beta-octylglucopyranoside followed by sodium deoxycholate to prepare a cell membrane-rich fraction. We then used 2 dimensional (2D) gel electrophoresis to separate the membrane proteins and applied a modified virus overlay protein binding assay (VOPBA) to show that dengue virus serotypes 1, 2 and 3 all interact with the 37 kDa/67 kDa laminin receptor (LAMR1), a common non-integrin surface protein on many cell types. CONCLUSION At least 3 of the 4 dengue serotypes interact with the 37 kDa/67 kDa laminin receptor, LAMR1, which may be a common player in dengue virus-cell surface interaction.

Abstract
Mutations in the valosin-containing protein (VCP) gene on chromosome 9p13-p12 recently have been shown to cause autosomal dominant inclusion body myopathy associated with Paget's disease of the bone and frontotemporal dementia. Here, we report the central nervous system autopsy findings in a 55-year-old German patient with inclusion body myopathy and frontotemporal dementia who harbors a heterozygous R155C missense mutation residing in the N-terminal CDC48 domain of VCP, which is involved in ubiquitin binding. We demonstrate that mutant VCP causes a novel type of frontotemporal dementia characterized by neuronal nuclear inclusions containing ubiquitin and VCP.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the major intracellular membrane system. The ER is essential for protein and lipid biosynthesis, transport of proteins along the secretory pathway, and calcium storage. Here, we describe our investigations into the dynamics and regulation of the ER in the early Caenorhabditis elegans embryo. Using a GFP fusion to the ER-resident signal peptidase SP12, we observed the morphological transitions of the ER through fertilization and the early cell-cycles in living embryos. These transitions were tightly coordinated with the division cycle: upon onset of mitosis, the ER formed structured sheets that redispersed at the initiation of cleavage. Although microtubules were not required for the transition of the ER between these different states, the actin cytoskeleton facilitated the dispersal of the ER at the end of mitosis. The ER had an asymmetric distribution in the early embryo, which was dependent on the establishment of polarity by the PAR proteins. The small GTPase ARF-1 played an essential role in the ER dynamics, although this function appeared to be unrelated to the role of ARF-1 in vesicular traffic. In addition, the ER-resident heat shock protein BiP and a homologue of the AAA ATPase Cdc48/p97 were found to be crucial for the ER transitions. Both proteins have been implicated in homotypic ER membrane fusion. We provide evidence that homotypic membrane fusion is required to form the sheet structure in the early embryo.

Abstract
Protein degradation in eukaryotes usually requires multiubiquitylation and subsequent delivery of the tagged substrates to the proteasome. Recent studies suggest the involvement of the AAA ATPase CDC48, its cofactors, and other ubiquitin binding factors in protein degradation, but how these proteins work together is unclear. Here we show that these factors cooperate sequentially through protein-protein interactions and thereby escort ubiquitin-protein conjugates to the proteasome. Central to this pathway is the chaperone CDC48/p97, which coordinates substrate recruitment, E4-catalyzed multiubiquitin chain assembly, and proteasomal targeting. Concomitantly, CDC48 prevents the formation of excessive multiubiquitin chain sizes that are surplus to requirements for degradation. In yeast, this escort pathway guides a transcription factor from its activation in the cytosol to its final degradation and also mediates proteolysis at the endoplasmic reticulum by the ERAD pathway.

Abstract
Nearly all resident proteins of the organelles along the secretory pathway, as well as proteins that are expressed at the cell surface or secreted from the cell, are first co-translationally translocated into the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) as unfolded polypeptide chains. Immediately after entering the ER, they are often modified with N-linked glycans, are folded into the appropriate secondary and tertiary structures, which are stabilized by disulfide bonds, and finally in many cases are assembled into multimeric complexes. These processes are aided and monitored by ER chaperones and folding enzymes. When cells experience conditions that alter the ER environment, protein folding can be dramatically affected and can lead to the accumulation of unfolded proteins in this organelle. This in turn activates a signaling response, which is shared among all eukaryotic organisms, termed the unfolded protein response (UPR). The hallmark of this response is the coordinate transcriptional up-regulation of ER chaperones and folding enzymes. A major role for the increased levels of chaperones and folding enzymes during conditions of ER stress is to provide the same functions they carry out during normal physiological conditions. This includes preventing unfolded and incompletely folded proteins from aggregating and promoting the proper folding and assembly of proteins in the ER. During conditions of ER stress, many proteins are unable to fold properly and the requirements for chaperones are therefore increased. However, more recently it has become clear that some ER chaperones are also involved in signaling the ER stress response, targeting misfolded proteins for degradation and perhaps even shutting down the UPR when the stress subsides. In addition, during some normal physiological conditions, like plasma cell differentiation where there is an increased demand in the secretory capacity of B cells, the levels of various ER chaperones are also up-regulated via at least part of the UPR pathway. In order to discuss these various functions of ER chaperones, we will begin with the roles of ER chaperones and folding enzymes during normal physiological conditions and then discuss their roles during ER stress.

Abstract
Escherichia coli ClpA, an Hsp100/Clp chaperone and an integral component of the ATP-dependent ClpAP protease, participates in the dissolution and degradation of regulatory proteins and protein aggregates. ClpA consists of three functional domains: an N-terminal domain and two ATPase domains, D1 and D2. The N-domain is attached to D1 by a mobile linker and is made up of two tightly bound, identically folded alpha-helical bundles related by a pseudo 2-fold symmetry. Between the halves of the pseudo-dimer is a large flexible acidic loop that becomes better ordered upon binding of the small adaptor protein, ClpS. We have identified a number of structural features in the N-domain, including a Zn(++) binding motif, several interfaces for binding to ClpS, and a prominent hydrophobic surface area that binds peptides in different configurations. These structural motifs may contribute to binding of protein or peptide substrates with weak affinity and broad specificity. Kinetic studies comparing wild-type ClpA to a mutant ClpA with its N-domain deleted show that the N-domains contribute to the binding of a non-specific protein substrate but not of a folded substrate with the specific SsrA recognition tag. A functional model is proposed in which the N-domains in ClpA function as tentacles to weakly hold on to proteins thereby enhancing local substrate concentration.

Abstract
The AAA+ family of proteins play fundamental roles in all three kingdoms of life. It is thought that they act as molecular chaperones in aiding the assembly or disassembly of proteins or protein complexes. Recent structural studies on a number of AAA+ family proteins have revealed that they share similar structural elements. These structures provide a possible link between nucleotide binding/hydrolysis and the conformational changes which are then amplified to generate mechanical forces for their specific functions. However, from these individual studies it is far from clear whether AAA+ proteins in general share properties in terms of nucleotide induced conformational changes. In this study, we analyze sequence conservation within the AAA+ family and identify two subfamilies, each with a distinct conserved linker sequence that may transfer conformational changes upon ATP binding/release to movements between subdomains and attached domains. To investigate the relation of these linker sequences to conformational changes, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations on X-ray structures of AAA+ proteins from each subfamily have been performed. These simulations show differences in both the N-linker peptide, subdomain motion, and cooperativity between elements of quaternary structure. Extrapolation of subdomain movements from one MD simulation enables us to produce a structure in close agreement with cryo-EM experiments.

Abstract
Dorfin, a RING-IBR type ubiquitin ligase (E3), can ubiquitylate mutant superoxide dismutase 1, the causative gene of familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Dorfin is located in ubiquitylated inclusions (UBIs) in various neurodegenerative disorders, such as ALS and Parkinson's disease (PD). Here we report that Valosin-containing protein (VCP) directly binds to Dorfin and that VCP ATPase activity profoundly contributes to the E3 activity of Dorfin. High through-put analysis using mass spectrometry identified VCP as a candidate of Dorfin-associated protein. Glycerol gradient centrifugation analysis showed that endogenous Dorfin consisted of a 400-600-kDa complex and was co-immunoprecipitated with endogenous VCP. In vitro experiments showed that Dorfin interacted directly with VCP through its C-terminal region. These two proteins were colocalized in aggresomes in HEK293 cells and UBIs in the affected neurons of ALS and PD. VCP(K524A), a dominant negative form of VCP, reduced the E3 activity of Dorfin against mutant superoxide dismutase 1, whereas it had no effect on the autoubiquitylation of Parkin. Our results indicate that VCPs functionally regulate Dorfin through direct interaction and that their functional interplay may be related to the process of UBI formation in neurodegenerative disorders, such as ALS or PD.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the eukaryotic organelle where most secretory proteins are folded for subsequent delivery to their site of action. Proper folding of newly synthesized proteins is monitored by a stringent ER quality control system. This system recognizes misfolded or unassembled proteins and prevents them from reaching their final destination. Instead, they are extracted from the ER, polyubiquitinated and degraded by the cytosolic proteasome. With the identification of novel components and substrates, a more and more complex picture of this process emerges in which distinct pathways target different sets of substrates for destruction.

Abstract
p97/CDC48 is a highly abundant hexameric AAA-ATPase that functions as a molecular chaperone in numerous diverse cellular activities. We have identified an Arabidopsis UBX domain-containing protein, PUX1, which functions to regulate the oligomeric structure of the Arabidopsis homolog of p97/CDC48, AtCDC48, as well as mammalian p97. PUX1 is a soluble protein that co-fractionates with non-hexameric AtCDC48 and physically interacts with AtCDC48 in vivo. Binding of PUX1 to AtCDC48 is mediated through the UBX-containing C-terminal domain. However, disassembly of the chaperone is dependent upon the N-terminal domain of PUX1. These findings provide evidence that the assembly and disassembly of the hexameric p97/CDC48 complex is a dynamic process. This new unexpected level of regulation for p97/CDC48 was demonstrated to be critical in vivo as pux1 loss-of-function mutants display accelerated growth relative to wild-type plants. These results suggest a role for AtCDC48 and PUX1 in regulating plant growth.

Abstract
The family of ubiquitin-like (UBL) domain proteins (UDPs) comprises a conserved group of proteins involved in a multitude of different cellular activities. However, recent studies on UBL-domain proteins indicate that these proteins appear to share a common property in their ability to interact with 26S proteasomes. The 26S proteasome is a multisubunit protease which is responsible for the majority of intracellular proteolysis in eukaryotic cells. Before degradation commences most proteins are first marked for destruction by being coupled to a chain of ubiquitin molecules. Some UBL-domain proteins catalyse the formation of ubiquitin-protein conjugates, whereas others appear to target ubiquitinated proteins for degradation and interact with chaperones. Hence, by binding to the 26S proteasome the UBL-domain proteins seem to tailor and direct the basic proteolytic functions of the particle to accommodate various cellular substrates.

Abstract
The AAA ATPase p97/VCP forms complexes with different adapters to fulfill distinct cellular functions. We analyzed the structural organization of the Ufd1-Npl4 adapter complex and its interaction with p97 and compared it with another adapter, p47. We found that the binary Ufd1-Npl4 complex forms a heterodimer that cooperatively interacts with p97 via a bipartite binding mechanism. Binding site 1 (BS1) is a short hydrophobic stretch in the C-terminal domain of Ufd1. The second binding site is located at the N terminus of Npl4 and is activated upon binding of Ufd1 to Npl4. It consists of about 80 amino acids that are predicted to form a ubiquitin fold domain (UBD). Despite the lack of overall homology between Ufd1-Npl4 and p47, both adapters use identical binding mechanisms. Like the ubiquitin fold ubiquitin regulatory X (UBX) domain in p47, the Npl4-UBD interacts with p97 via the loop between its strands 3 and 4 and a conserved arginine in strand 1. Furthermore, we identified a region in p47 homologous to Ufd1-BS1. The UBD/UBX and the BS1 of both adapters interact with p97 independently, whereas homologous binding sites in both adapters compete for binding to p97. In contrast to p47, however, Ufd1-Npl4 does not regulate the ATPase activity of p97; nor does a variant of p47 that contains both binding sites but lacks the N-terminal domains. Therefore, the binding sites alone do not regulate p97 directly but rather serve as anchor points to position adapter-specific domains at critical locations to modulate p97-mediated reactions.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) is a protein quality control mechanism that eliminates unwanted proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) through a ubiquitin-dependent proteasomal degradation pathway. gp78 is a previously described ER membrane-anchored ubiquitin ligase (E3) involved in ubiquitination of ER proteins. AAA ATPase (ATPase associated with various cellular activities) p97/valosin-containing protein (VCP) subsequently dislodges the ubiquitinated proteins from the ER and chaperones them to the cytosol, where they undergo proteasomal degradation. We now report that gp78 physically interacts with p97/VCP and enhances p97/VCP-polyubiquitin association. The enhanced association correlates with decreases in ER stress-induced accumulation of polyubiquitinated proteins. This effect is abolished when the p97/VCP-interacting domain of gp78 is removed. Further, using ERAD substrate CD3delta, gp78 consistently enhances p97/VCP-CD3delta binding and facilitates CD3delta degradation. Moreover, inhibition of endogenous gp78 expression by RNA interference markedly increases the levels of total polyubiquitinated proteins, including CD3delta, and abrogates VCP-CD3delta interactions. The gp78 mutant with deletion of its p97/VCP-interacting domain fails to increase CD3delta degradation and leads to accumulation of polyubiquitinated CD3delta, suggesting a failure in delivering ubiquitinated CD3delta for degradation. These data suggest that gp78-p97/VCP interaction may represent one way of coupling ubiquitination with retrotranslocation and degradation of ERAD substrates.

Abstract
Peroxisomes are responsible for several pathways in primary metabolism, including beta-oxidation and lipid biosynthesis. PEX1 and PEX6 are hexameric AAA-type ATPases, both of which are indispensable in targeting over 50 peroxisomal resident proteins from the cytosol to the peroxisomes. Although the tandem AAA-ATPase domains in the central region of PEX1 and PEX6 are highly similar, the N-terminal sequences are unique. To better understand the distinct molecular function of these two proteins, we analyzed the unique N-terminal domain (NTD) of PEX1. Extensive computational analysis revealed weak similarity (<10% identity) of PEX1 NTD to the N-terminal domains of other membrane-related type II AAA-ATPases, such as VCP (p97) and NSF. We have determined the crystal structure of mouse PEX1 NTD at 2.05-A resolution, which clearly demonstrated that the domain belongs to the double-psi-barrel fold family found in the other AAA-ATPases. The N-domains of both VCP and NSF are structural neighbors of PEX1 NTD with a 2.7- and 2.1-A root mean square deviation of backbone atoms, respectively. Our findings suggest that the supradomain architecture, which is composed of a single N-terminal domain followed by tandem AAA domains, is a common feature of organellar membrane-associating AAA-ATPases. We propose that PEX1 functions as a protein unfoldase in peroxisomal biogenesis, using its N-terminal putative adaptor-binding domain.

Abstract
The ssrA-degradation tag sequence contains contiguous binding sites for the SspB adaptor and the ClpX component of the ClpXP protease. Although SspB normally enhances ClpXP degradation of ssrA-tagged substrates, it inhibits proteolysis under conditions that prevent tethering to ClpX. By increasing the spacing between the protease and adaptor-binding determinants in the ssrA tag, substrates were obtained that displayed improved SspB-mediated binding to and degradation by ClpXP. These extended-tag substrates also showed significantly reduced conditional inhibition but bound SspB normally. Both wild-type and mutant tags showed highly dynamic SspB interactions. Together, these results strongly support delivery models in which SspB and ClpX bind concurrently to the ssrA tag, but also suggest that clashes between SspB and ClpX weaken simultaneous binding. During substrate delivery, this signal masking is overcome by tethering SspB to ClpX, which ensures local concentrations high enough to drive tag engagement. This obstruct-then-stimulate mechanism may have evolved to allow additional levels of regulation and could be a common trait of adaptor-mediated protein degradation.

Abstract
p97/VCP is a member of the AAA ATPase family and has roles in both membrane fusion and ubiquitin dependent protein degradation. Here, we present a 3.6A crystal structure of murine p97 in which D2 domain has been modelled as poly-alanine and the remaining approximately 100 residues are absent. The resulting structure illustrates a head-to-tail packing arrangement of the two p97 AAA domains in a natural hexameric state with D1 ADP bound and D2 nucleotide free. The head-to-tail packing arrangement observed in this structure is in contrast to our previously predicted tail-to-tail packing model. The linker between the D1 and D2 domains is partially disordered, suggesting a flexible nature. Normal mode analysis of the crystal structure suggests anti-correlated motions and distinct conformational states of the two AAA domains.

Abstract
Known activities of the ubiquitin-selective AAA ATPase Cdc48 (p97) require one of the mutually exclusive cofactors Ufd1/Npl4 and Shp1 (p47). Whereas Ufd1/Npl4 recruits Cdc48 to ubiquitylated proteins destined for degradation by the 26S proteasome, the UBX domain protein p47 has so far been linked exclusively to nondegradative Cdc48 functions in membrane fusion processes. Here, we show that all seven UBX domain proteins of Saccharomyces cerevisiae bind to Cdc48, thus constituting an entire new family of Cdc48 cofactors. The two major yeast UBX domain proteins, Shp1 and Ubx2, possess a ubiquitin-binding UBA domain and interact with ubiquitylated proteins in vivo. Deltashp1 and Deltaubx2 strains display defects in the degradation of a ubiquitylated model substrate, are sensitive to various stress conditions and are genetically linked to the 26S proteasome. Our data suggest that Shp1 and Ubx2 are adaptors for Cdc48-dependent protein degradation through the ubiquitin/proteasome pathway.

Abstract
We observed the disassembly of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) exit sites (ERES) by confocal microscopy during mitosis in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells by using Yip1A fused to green fluorescence protein (GFP) as a transmembrane marker of ERES. Photobleaching experiments revealed that Yip1A-GFP, which was restricted to the ERES during interphase, diffused throughout the ER network during mitosis. Next, we reconstituted mitotic disassembly of Yip1A-GFP-labeled ERES in streptolysin O-permeabilized CHO cells by using mitotic L5178Y cytosol. Using the ERES disassembly assay and the anterograde transport assay of GFP-tagged VSVGts045, we demonstrated that the phosphorylation of p47 by Cdc2 kinase regulates the disassembly of ERES and results in the specific inhibition of ER-to-Golgi transport during mitosis.

Abstract
Valosin-containing protein, VCP/p97 or Cdc48, is a eukaryotic ATPase involved in membrane fusion, protein transport, and protein degradation. We describe two proteins, Ubx2 and Ubx3, which interact with Cdc48 in fission yeast. Ubx3 is the ortholog of p47/Shp1, a previously described Cdc48 cofactor involved in membrane fusion, whereas Ubx2 is a novel protein. Cdc48 binds the UBX domains present in both Ubx2 and Ubx3, indicating that this domain is a general Cdc48-interacting module. Ubx2 and Ubx3 also interact with ubiquitin chains. Disruption of the ubx3(+)-gene causes both temperature and canavanine sensitivity and stabilizes some ubiquitin-protein conjugates including the CDK inhibitor Rum1, but not a model substrate of the ER-degradation pathway. Moreover the ubx3 null displays synthetic lethality with a pus1 null mutant, a multiubiquitin binding subunit of the 26S proteasome. In contrast, the ubx2 null mutant did not display any obvious protein-degradation phenotype. In conclusion Ubx3/p47 is not, as previously thought, only important for membrane fusion; it's also important for the specific degradation of a subset of cell proteins. Our genetic analyses revealed that Ubx3/p47 functionally parallels a substrate receptor of the 26S proteasome, Pus1/Rpn10, indicating that the Cdc48-Ubx3 complex is involved in delivering substrates to the 26S proteasome.
