Abstract
Background/Aims Phaeodactylum tricornutum, a model organism of diatoms, plays a crucial role in Earth's primary productivity. Investigating its cellular response to grazing pressure is highly significant for the marine ecological environment. Furthermore, the integration of multi-omics approaches has enhanced the understanding of its response mechanism. Methods To assess the molecular and cellular responses of P.tricornutum to grazer presence, we conducted transcriptomic, proteomic, and metabolomic analyses, combined with phenotypic data from previous studies. Sequencing data were obtained by Illumina RNA sequencing, TMT Labeled Quantitative Proteomics and Non-targeted Metabolomics, and WGCNA analysis and statistical analysis were performed. Results Among the differentially expressed genes, we observed complex expression patterns of the core genes involved in the phenotypic changes of P.tricornutum under grazing pressure across different strains and multi-omics datasets. These core genes primarily regulate the levels of various proteins and fatty acids, as well as the cellular response to diverse signals. Conclusion Our research reveals the association of multi-omics in four strains responses to grazing effects in P.tricornutum. Grazing pressure significantly impacted cell growth, fatty acid composition, stress response, and the core genes involved in phenotype transformation.

A Non-redundant Function of MNS5: A Class I α-1, 2 Mannosidase, in the Regulation of Endoplasmic Reticulum-Associated Degradation of Misfolded Glycoproteins. FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2022; 13:873688.

Abstract
Endoplasmic Reticulum-Associated Degradation (ERAD) is one of the major processes in maintaining protein homeostasis. Class I α-mannosidases MNS4 and MNS5 are involved in the degradation of misfolded variants of the heavily glycosylated proteins, playing an important role for glycan-dependent ERAD in planta. MNS4 and MNS5 reportedly have functional redundancy, meaning that only the loss of both MNS4 and MNS5 shows phenotypes. However, MNS4 is a membrane-associated protein while MNS5 is a soluble protein, and both can localize to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Furthermore, MNS4 and MNS5 differentially demannosylate the glycoprotein substrates. Importantly, we found that their gene expression patterns are complemented rather than overlapped. This raises the question of whether they indeed work redundantly, warranting a further investigation. Here, we conducted an exhaustive genetic screen for a suppressor of the bri1-5, a brassinosteroid (BR) receptor mutant with its receptor downregulated by ERAD, and isolated sbi3, a suppressor of bri1-5 mutant named after sbi1 (suppressor of bri1). After genetic mapping together with whole-genome re-sequencing, we identified a point mutation G343E in AT1G27520 (MNS5) in sbi3. Genetic complementation experiments confirmed that sbi3 was a loss-of-function allele of MNS5. In addition, sbi3 suppressed the dwarf phenotype of bri1-235 in the proteasome-independent ERAD pathway and bri1-9 in the proteasome-dependent ERAD pathway. Importantly, sbi3 could only affect BRI1/bri1 with kinase activities such that it restored BR-sensitivities of bri1-5, bri1-9, and bri1-235 but not null bri1. Furthermore, sbi3 was less tolerant to tunicamycin and salt than the wild-type plants. Thus, our study uncovers a non-redundant function of MNS5 in the regulation of ERAD as well as plant growth and ER stress response, highlighting a need of the traditional forward genetic approach to complement the T-DNA or CRISPR-Cas9 systems on gene functional study.

CaMKII/proteasome/cytosolic calcium/cathepsin B axis was present in tryspin activation induced by nicardipine. Biosci Rep 2019; 39:BSR20190516.

Abstract
Premature trypsinogen activation is the early event of acute pancreatitis. Therefore, the studies on the processes of trypsinogen activation induced by compounds are important to understand mechanism underly acute pancreatitis under various conditions. Calcium overload in the early stage of acute pancreatitis was previously found to cause intracellular trypsinogen activation; however, treatment of acute pancreatitis using calcium channel blockers did not produced consistent results. Proteasome activity that could be inhibited by some calcium channel blocker has recently been reported to affect the development of acute pancreatitis; however, the associated mechanism were not fully understood. Here, the roles of nicardipine were investigated in trypsinogen activation in pancreatic acinar cells. The results showed that nicardipine could increase cathepsin B activity that caused trypsinogen activation, but higher concentration of nicardipine or prolonged treatment had an opposite effect. The effects of short time treatment of nicardipine at low concentration were studied here. Proteasome inhibition was observed under nicardipine treatment that contributed to the up-regulation in cytosolic calcium. Increased cytosolic calcium from ER induced by nicardipine resulted in the release and activation of cathepsin B. Meanwhile, calcium chelator inhibited cathepsin B as well as trypsinogen activation. Consistently, proteasome activator protected acinar cells from injury induced by nicardipine. Moreover, proteasome inhibition caused by nicardipine depended on CaMKII. In conclusion, CaMKII down-regulation/proteasome inhibition/cytosolic calcium up-regulation/cathepsin B activation/trypsinogen activation axis was present in pancreatic acinar cells injury under nicardipine treatment.

Abstract
F-box proteins, the substrate recognition subunits of SKP1–CUL1–F-box protein (SCF) E3 ubiquitin ligase complexes, play crucial roles in various cellular events mediated by ubiquitination. Several sugar-recognizing F-box proteins exist in both mammalian and plant cells. Although glycoproteins generally reside outside of cells, or in organelles of the secretory pathway, these lectin-type F-box proteins reside in the nucleocytoplasmic compartment. Mammalian sugar-recognizing F-box proteins commonly bind to the innermost position of N-glycans through a unique small hydrophobic pocket in their loops. Two cytosolic F-box proteins, Fbs1 and Fbs2, recognize high-mannose glycans synthesized in the ER, and SCFFbs1 and SCFFbs2 ubiquitinate excess unassembled or misfolded glycoproteins in the ERAD pathway by recognizing the innermost glycans, which serve as signals for aberrant proteins. On the other hand, endomembrane-bound Fbs3 recognizes complex glycans as well as high-mannose glycans, and SCFFbs3 ubiquitinates exposed glycoproteins in damaged lysosomes fated for elimination by selective autophagy. Plants express stress-inducible lectin-type F-box proteins recognizing a wider range of N- and O-glycans, suggesting that the roles of mammalian and plant lectin-type F-box proteins have diverged over the course of evolution to recognize species-specific targets with distinct functions. These sugar-recognizing F-box proteins interpret glycans in the cytosol as markers of unwanted proteins and organelles, and degrade them via the proteasome or autophagy.

Abstract
Translational stalling of ribosome bound to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane requires an accurate clearance of the associated polypeptides, which is not completely understood in mammals. We characterized in mammalian cells the model of ribosomal stalling at the STOP-codon based on proteins tagged at the C-terminus with the picornavirus 2A peptide followed by a termination codon instead of the Proline (2A*). We exploited the 2A* stalling model to characterize the pathway of degradation of ER-targeted polypeptides. We report that the ER chaperone BiP/GRP78 is a new main factor involved. Moreover, degradation of the ER-stalled polypeptides required the activities of the AAA-ATPase VCP/p97, its associated deubiquitinylase YOD1, the ribosome-associated ubiquitin ligase Listerin and the proteasome. In human proteome, we found two human C-terminal amino acid sequences that cause similar stalling at the STOP-codon. Our data suggest that translational stalling at the ER membrane activates protein degradation at the interface of ribosomal- and ER-associated quality control systems. Ribosomal stalling at the STOP-codon causes degradation of the translated protein. Picornavirus 2A peptide and related sequences cause ribosome stalling at STOP-codon. BiP/GRP78 recognizes polypeptides produced by membrane-bound stalled ribosomes. ER-stalled polypeptides are disposed of through the ERAD pathway. BIP/GRP78 is a novel key player for ERAD targeting of stalled ribosomal peptides.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a functionally and morphologically complex cellular organelle largely responsible for a variety of crucial functions, including protein folding, maturation and degradation. Furthermore, the ER plays an essential role in lipid biosynthesis, dynamic Ca2+ storage, and detoxification. Malfunctions in ER‐related processes are responsible for the genesis and progression of many diseases, such as heart failure, cancer, neurodegeneration and metabolic disorders. To fulfill many of its vital functions, the ER relies on a sufficient energy supply in the form of adenosine‐5′‐triphosphate (ATP), the main cellular energy source. Despite landmark discoveries and clarification of the functional principles of ER‐resident proteins and key ER‐related processes, the mechanism underlying ER ATP transport remains somewhat enigmatic. Here we summarize ER‐related ATP‐consuming processes and outline our knowledge about the nature and function of the ER energy supply.

Abstract
Proteins on the cell surface and secreted proteins are modified with sugar chains that generate and modulate biological complexity and diversity. Sugar chains not only contribute physically to the conformation and solubility of proteins, but also exert various functions via sugar-binding proteins (lectins) that reside on the cell surface or in organelles of the secretory pathway. However, some glycosidases and lectins are found in the cytosol or nucleus. Recent studies of cytosolic sugar-related molecules have revealed that sugar chains on proteins in the cytosol act as signals of adverse cellular conditions. In this review, we summarize recent reports that cytosolic sugar chains can trigger ubiquitination, followed by proteasomal and autophagic degradation to maintain cellular homeostasis. In addition, we discuss the functions of sugar-binding proteins revealed to date, along with possibilities not yet explored.

Abstract
Nematodes are a very diverse phylum that has adapted to nearly every ecosystem. They have developed specialized lifestyles, dividing the phylum into free-living, animal, and plant parasitic species. Their sheer abundance in numbers and presence in nearly every ecosystem make them the most prevalent animals on earth. In this research nematode-specific profiles were designed to retrieve predicted lectin-like domains from the sequence data of nematode genomes and transcriptomes. Lectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins that play numerous roles inside and outside the cell depending on their sugar specificity and associated protein domains. The sugar-binding properties of the retrieved lectin-like proteins were predicted in silico. Although most research has focused on C-type lectin-like, galectin-like, and calreticulin-like proteins in nematodes, we show that the lectin-like repertoire in nematodes is far more diverse. We focused on C-type lectins, which are abundantly present in all investigated nematode species, but seem to be far more abundant in free-living species. Although C-type lectin-like proteins are omnipresent in nematodes, we have shown that only a small part possesses the residues that are thought to be essential for carbohydrate binding. Curiously, hevein, a typical plant lectin domain not reported in animals before, was found in some nematode species.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress occurs in plants during certain developmental stages or under adverse environmental conditions, as a result of the accumulation of unfolded or misfolded proteins in the ER. To minimize the accumulation of misfolded proteins in the ER, a protein quality control (PQC) system monitors protein folding and eliminates misfolded proteins through either ER-associated protein degradation (ERAD) or autophagy. ER stress elicits the unfolded protein response (UPR), which enhances the operation in plant cells of the ER protein folding machinery and the PQC system. The UPR also reduces protein folding demands in the ER by degrading mRNAs encoding secretory proteins. In plants subjected to severe or chronic stress, UPR promotes programmed cell death (PCD). Progress in the field in recent years has provided insights into the regulatory networks and signaling mechanisms of the ER stress responses in plants. In addition, novel physiological functions of the ER stress responses in plants for coordinating plant growth and development with changing environment have been recently revealed.

Abstract
Proteasome is a protein degradation complex that plays a major role in maintaining cellular homeostasis. Despite extensive efforts to identify protein substrates that are degraded through ubiquitination, the regulation of proteasome activity itself under diverse signals is poorly understood. In this study, we have isolated iRhom1 as a stimulator of proteasome activity from genome-wide functional screening using cDNA expression and an unstable GFP-degron. Downregulation of iRhom1 reduced enzymatic activity of proteasome complexes and overexpression of iRhom1 enhanced it. Native-gel and fractionation analyses revealed that knockdown of iRhom1 expression impaired the assembly of the proteasome complexes. The expression of iRhom1 was increased by endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stressors, such as thapsigargin and tunicamycin, leading to the enhancement of proteasome activity, especially in ER-containing microsomes. iRhom1 interacted with the 20S proteasome assembly chaperones PAC1 and PAC2, affecting their protein stability. Moreover, knockdown of iRhom1 expression impaired the dimerization of PAC1 and PAC2 under ER stress. In addition, iRhom1 deficiency in D. melanogaster accelerated the rough-eye phenotype of mutant Huntingtin, while transgenic flies expressing either human iRhom1 or Drosophila iRhom showed rescue of the rough-eye phenotype. Together, these results identify a novel regulator of proteasome activity, iRhom1, which functions via PAC1/2 under ER stress.

Abstract
N-Glycans are modified as part of a quality control mechanism during glycoprotein folding in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Glucosidase II (GII) plays a critical role by generating monoglucosylated glycans that are recognized by lectin chaperones, calnexin and calreticulin. To understand how the hydrolytic activity of GIIα is enhanced by the mannose 6-phosphate receptor (MPR) homology domain (MRH domain) of its β subunit, we now report a 1.6 Å resolution crystal structure of the MRH domain of GIIβ bound to mannose. A comparison of ligand-bound and unbound structures reveals no major difference in their overall fold, but rather a repositioning of side chains throughout the binding pocket, including Y372. Mutation of Y372 inhibits GII activity, demonstrating an important role for Y372 in regulating GII activity. Comparison of the MRH domains of GIIβ, MPRs, and the ER lectin OS-9 identified conserved residues that are critical for the structural integrity and architecture of the carbohydrate binding pocket. As shown by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, mutations of the primary binding pocket residues and adjacent W409, all of which inhibit the activity of GII both in vitro and in vivo, do not cause a significant change in the overall fold of the GIIβ MRH domain but impact locally the stability of the binding pocket. W409 does not directly contact mannose; rather, its indole ring is stabilized by binding into a hydrophobic pocket of an adjacent crystallographic neighbor. This suggests that W409 interacts with a hydrophobic region of the GIIβ or GIIα subunit to modulate its effect on GII activity.

Abstract
Familial encephalopathy with neuroserpin inclusions bodies (FENIB) is a serpinopathy that induces a rare form of presenile dementia. Neuroserpin contains a classical signal peptide and like all extracellular serine proteinase inhibitors (serpins) is secreted via the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-Golgi pathway. The disease phenotype is due to gain-of-function missense mutations that cause neuroserpin to misfold and aggregate within the ER. In a previous study, nematodes expressing a homologous mutation in the endogenous Caenorhabditis elegans serpin, srp-2, were reported to model the ER proteotoxicity induced by an allele of mutant neuroserpin. Our results suggest that SRP-2 lacks a classical N-terminal signal peptide and is a member of the intracellular serpin family. Using confocal imaging and an ER colocalization marker, we confirmed that GFP-tagged wild-type SRP-2 localized to the cytosol and not the ER. Similarly, the aggregation-prone SRP-2 mutant formed intracellular inclusions that localized to the cytosol. Interestingly, wild-type SRP-2, targeted to the ER by fusion to a cleavable N-terminal signal peptide, failed to be secreted and accumulated within the ER lumen. This ER retention phenotype is typical of other obligate intracellular serpins forced to translocate across the ER membrane. Neuroserpin is a secreted protein that inhibits trypsin-like proteinase. SRP-2 is a cytosolic serpin that inhibits lysosomal cysteine peptidases. We concluded that SRP-2 is neither an ortholog nor a functional homolog of neuroserpin. Furthermore, animals expressing an aggregation-prone mutation in SRP-2 do not model the ER proteotoxicity associated with FENIB.

Abstract
The membrane-bound Nrf1 transcription factor regulates critical homeostatic and developmental genes. The conserved N-terminal homology box 1 (NHB1) sequence in Nrf1 targets the cap‘n’collar (CNC) basic basic-region leucine zipper (bZIP) factor to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), but it is unknown how its activity is controlled topologically within membranes. Herein, we report a hitherto unknown mechanism by which the transactivation activity of Nrf1 is controlled through its membrane-topology. Thus after Nrf1 is anchored within ER membranes, its acidic transactivation domains (TADs), including the Asn/Ser/Thr-rich (NST) glycodomain situated between acidic domain 1 (AD1) and AD2, are transiently translocated into the lumen of the ER, where NST is glycosylated in the presence of glucose to yield an inactive 120-kDa Nrf1 glycoprotein. Subsequently, portions of the TADs partially repartition across membranes into the cyto/nucleoplasmic compartments, whereupon an active 95-kDa form of Nrf1 accumulates, a process that is more obvious in glucose-deprived cells and may involve deglycosylation. The repartitioning of Nrf1 out of membranes is monitored within this protein by its acidic-hydrophobic amphipathic glucose-responsive domains, particularly the Neh5L subdomain within AD1. Therefore, the membrane-topological organization of Nrf1 dictates its post-translational modifications (i.e. glycosylation, the putative deglycosylation and selective proteolysis), which together control its ability to transactivate target genes.

Abstract
A correct three-dimensional structure is crucial for the physiological functions of a protein, yet the folding of proteins to acquire native conformation is a fundamentally error-prone process. Eukaryotic organisms have evolved a highly conserved endoplasmic reticulum-mediated protein quality control (ERQC) mechanism to monitor folding processes of secretory and membrane proteins, allowing export of only correctly folded proteins to their physiological destinations, retaining incompletely/mis-folded ones in the ER for additional folding attempts, marking and removing terminally misfolded ones via a unique multiple-step degradation process known as ER-associated degradation (ERAD). Most of our current knowledge on ERQC and ERAD came from genetic and biochemical investigations in yeast and mammalian cells. Recent studies in the reference plant Arabidopsis thaliana uncovered homologous components and similar mechanisms in plants for monitoring protein folding and for retaining, repairing, and removing misfolded proteins. These studies also revealed critical roles of the plant ERQC/ERAD systems in regulating important biochemical/physiological processes, such as abiotic stress tolerance and plant defense. In this review, we discuss our current understanding about the molecular components and biochemical mechanisms of the plant ERQC/ERAD system in comparison to yeast and mammalian systems.

Abstract
RING finger domain and RING finger-like ubiquitin ligases (E3s), such as U-box proteins, constitute the vast majority of known E3s. RING-type E3s function together with ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes (E2s) to mediate ubiquitination and are implicated in numerous cellular processes. In part because of their importance in human physiology and disease, these proteins and their cellular functions represent an intense area of study. Here we review recent advances in RING-type E3 recognition of substrates, their cellular regulation, and their varied architecture. Additionally, recent structural insights into RING-type E3 function, with a focus on important interactions with E2s and ubiquitin, are reviewed. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Ubiquitin-Proteasome System. Guest Editors: Thomas Sommer and Dieter H. Wolf.

Abstract
In four yeast strains, Ogataea minuta, Candida parapolymorpha, Pichia anomala and Zygosaccharomyces rouxii, we identified endo-β-N-acetylglucosaminidase (ENGase) homologous sequences by database searches; in each of the four species, a corresponding enzyme activity was also confirmed in crude cell extract obtained from each strain. The O. minuta ENGase (Endo-Om)-encoding gene was directly amplified from O. minuta genomic DNA and sequenced. The Endo-Om-encoding gene contained a 2319-bp open-reading frame; the deduced amino acid sequence indicated that the putative protein belonged to glycoside hydrolase family 85. The gene was introduced into O. minuta, and the recombinant Endo-Om was overexpressed and purified. When the enzyme assay was performed using an agalacto-biantennary oligosaccharide as a substrate, Endo-Om exhibited both hydrolysis and transglycosylation activities. Endo-Om exhibited hydrolytic activity for high-mannose, hybrid, biantennary and (2,6)-branched triantennary N-linked oligosaccharides, but not for tetraantennary, (2,4)-branched triantennary, bisecting N-acetylglucosamine structure and core-fucosylated biantennary N-linked oligosaccharides. Endo-Om also was able to hydrolyze N-glycans attached to RNase B and human transferrin under both denaturing and nondenaturing conditions. Thus, the present study reports the detection and characterization of a novel yeast ENGase.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) α-1, 2-mannosidase and γ-COP contribute to a Golgi-based quality control module that facilitates the retrieval of captured ER-associated protein degradation substrates back to the ER. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) α-1, 2-mannosidase (ERManI) contributes to ER-associated protein degradation (ERAD) by initiating the formation of degradation signals on misfolded N-linked glycoproteins. Despite its inferred intracellular location, we recently discovered that the mammalian homologue is actually localized to the Golgi complex. In the present study, the functional role of Golgi-situated ERManI was investigated. Mass spectrometry analysis and coimmunoprecipitation (co-IP) identified a direct interaction between ERManI and γ-COP, the gamma subunit of coat protein complex I (COPI) that is responsible for Golgi-to-ER retrograde cargo transport. The functional relationship was validated by the requirement of both ERManI and γ-COP to support efficient intracellular clearance of the classical ERAD substrate, null Hong Kong (NHK). In addition, site-directed mutagenesis of suspected γ-COP–binding motifs in the cytoplasmic tail of ERManI was sufficient to disrupt the physical interaction and ablate NHK degradation. Moreover, a physical interaction between NHK, ERManI, and γ-COP was identified by co-IP and Western blotting. RNA interference–mediated knockdown of γ-COP enhanced the association between ERManI and NHK, while diminishing the efficiency of ERAD. Based on these findings, a model is proposed in which ERManI and γ-COP contribute to a Golgi-based quality control module that facilitates the retrieval of captured ERAD substrates back to the ER.

Abstract
The N(ε)-amino group of lysine residues can be transiently modified by the addition of an acetyl group. Recognized functions of N(ε)-lysine acetylation include regulation of activity, molecular stabilization and conformational assembly of a protein. For more than forty years lysine acetylation was thought to occur only in the cytosol and nucleus. Targets included cytoskeletal-associated proteins as well as transcription factors, histone proteins and proteins involved in DNA recombination and repair. However, in 2007 we reported that a type I membrane protein involved in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease was transiently acetylated on the ε amino group of seven lysine residues while transiting along the secretory pathway. Surprisingly, the acetylation occurred in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) forcing us to reconsider old paradigms. Indeed, if lysine acetylation can occur in the lumen of the ER, then all the essential biochemical elements of the reaction must be available in the lumen of the organelle. Follow-up studies revealed the existence of ER-based acetyl-CoA:lysine acetyltransferases as well as a membrane transporter that translocates acetyl-CoA from the cytosol into the ER lumen. Large-scale proteomics showed that the list of substrates of the ER-based acetylation machinery includes both transiting and resident proteins. Finally, genetic studies revealed that this machinery is tightly linked to human diseases. Here, we describe these exciting findings as well as recent biochemical and cellular advances, and discuss possible impact on both human physiology and pathology.

Abstract
The Arabidopsis thaliana genome contains a small group of bipartite F-box proteins, consisting of an N-terminal F-box domain and a C-terminal domain sharing sequence similarity with Nictaba, the jasmonate-induced glycan-binding protein (lectin) from tobacco. Based on the high sequence similarity between the C-terminal domain of these proteins and Nictaba, the hypothesis was put forward that the so-called F-box-Nictaba proteins possess carbohydrate-binding activity and accordingly can be considered functional homologs of the mammalian sugar-binding F-box or Fbs proteins which are involved in proteasomal degradation of glycoproteins. To obtain experimental evidence for the carbohydrate-binding activity and specificity of the A. thaliana F-box-Nictaba proteins, both the complete F-box-Nictaba sequence of one selected Arabidopsis F-box protein (in casu At2g02360) as well as the Nictaba-like domain only were expressed in Pichia pastoris and analyzed by affinity chromatography, agglutination assays and glycan micro-array binding assays. These results demonstrated that the C-terminal Nictaba-like domain provides the F-box-protein with a carbohydrate-binding activity that is specifically directed against N- and O-glycans containing N-acetyllactosamine (Galβ1-3GlcNAc and Galβ1-4GlcNAc) and poly-N-acetyllactosamine ([Galβ1-4GlcNAc]n) as well as Lewis A (Galβ1-3(Fucα1-4)GlcNAc), Lewis X (Galβ1-4(Fucα1-3)GlcNAc, Lewis Y (Fucα1-2Galβ1-4(Fucα1-3)GlcNAc) and blood type B (Galα1-3(Fucα1-2)Galβ1-3GlcNAc) motifs. Based on these findings one can reasonably conclude that at least the A. thaliana F-box-Nictaba protein encoded by At2g02360 can act as a carbohydrate-binding protein. The results from the glycan array assays revealed differences in sugar-binding specificity between the F-box protein and Nictaba, indicating that the same carbohydrate-binding motif can accommodate unrelated oligosaccharides.

Abstract
FBOX6 ubiquitin ligase complex is involved in the endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation pathway by mediating the ubiquitination of glycoproteins. FBXO6 interacts with the chitobiose in unfolded N-glycoprotein, pointing glycoproteins toward E2 for ubiquitination. Although the glycoprotein-recognizing mechanism of FBXO6 is well documented, its bona fide interacting glycoproteins are largely unknown. Here we utilized a protein purification approach combined with LC-MS to systematically identify the FBXO6-interacting glycoproteins. Following identification of 39 proteins that specifically interact with FBXO6 in all three different cell lines, 293T, HeLa and Jurkat cells, we compared the protein complex organization between wild-type FBXO6 and its mutant, which fails to recognize glycoproteins. Combining these databases, 29 highly confident glycoproteins that interact with FBXO6 in an N-glycan dependent manner are identified. Our data provide valuable information for the discovery of the interacting glycoproteins of FBXO6 and also demonstrate the potential of these approaches as general platforms for the global discovery of interacting glycoproteins of other FBAs (F-box associated regions) containing F-box proteins.

Abstract
BACKGROUND N-linked oligosaccharides operate as tags for protein quality control, consigning glycoproteins to different fates, i.e. folding in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), vesicular transport between the ER and the Golgi complex, and ER-associated degradation of glycoproteins, by interacting with a panel of intracellular lectins in the early secretory pathway. SCOPE OF REVIEW This review summarizes the current state of knowledge regarding the molecular and structural basis for glycoprotein-fate determination in cells that is achieved through the actions of the intracellular lectins and its partner proteins. MAJOR CONCLUSIONS Cumulative frontal affinity chromatography (FAC) data demonstrated that the intracellular lectins exhibit distinct sugar-binding specificity profiles. The glycotopes recognized by these lectins as fate determinants are embedded in the triantennary structures of the high-mannose-type oligosaccharides and are exposed upon trimming of the outer glucose and mannose residues during the N-glycan processing pathway. Furthermore, recently emerged 3D structural data offer mechanistic insights into functional interplay between an intracellular lectin and its binding partner in the early secretory pathway. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE Structural biology approaches in conjunction with FAC methods provide atomic pictures of the mechanisms behind the glycoprotein-fate determination in cells.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum α-1,2 mannosidase I (ERManI) is an enzyme, which removes α(1-2) linked mannoses from asparagine-linked oligosaccharides on glycoproteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). ERManI preferentially removes one α(1-2) linked mannose from B-chain of Man(9)GlcNAc(2). When glycoproteins fail to achieve properly folding, increased removal of α(1-2) linked mannoses on their oligosaccharides is induced and leads them to be disposed and degraded by ER-associated degradation pathway. However, it is still inconclusive whether accelerated removal of α(1-2) linked mannoses on those glycoproteins is catalyzed by the α-1,2 mannosidase I, proteins similar to mannosidase I [e.g. ER degradation-enhancing α-1,2 mannosidase-like protein (EDEM)], or both of them. Therefore, to approach this issue, we have investigated its in vitro activities using various oligosaccharides and glycoproteins as substrates. A recombinant form of human ERManI (hERManI) was prepared by using Escherichia coli. First, the enzyme generated Man(6)GlcNAc(2)-PA and Man(5)GlcNAc(2)-PA from 100 μM Man(9)GlcNAc(2)-PA after a one-hour reaction. Second, we have exposed bovine thyroglobulin and soybean agglutinin to denaturing conditions, e.g. 8 M urea, and used those glycoproteins as substrates. Sugar moieties were released from the reactant by PNGase F and their structures and amounts were elucidated by HPLC analysis. Intriguingly, the enzyme was shown to remove mannoses from bovine thyroglobulin and soybean agglutinin to larger extents when they were exposed to a denaturant. Therefore, our results suggested that hERManI could recognize tertiary and/or quaternary structures of glycoproteins and remove more α-1,2 linked mannoses from misfolded glycoproteins in living cells.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) uses an elaborate surveillance system called the ER quality control (ERQC) system. The ERQC facilitates folding and modification of secretory and membrane proteins and eliminates terminally misfolded polypeptides through ER-associated degradation (ERAD) or autophagic degradation. This mechanism of ER protein surveillance is closely linked to redox and calcium homeostasis in the ER, whose balance is presumed to be regulated by a specific cellular compartment. The potential to modulate proteostasis and metabolism with chemical compounds or targeted siRNAs may offer an ideal option for the treatment of disease.

Abstract
Hepatitis B virus envelope glycoproteins Large (L), Middle (M) and Small (S) are targets of the host cellular immune system. The extent to which the host recognizes viral antigens presented by infected cells is believed to play a decisive role in determining if an infection will be resolved or become chronic. As with other antigens, HBV envelope polypeptides must be degraded, presumably by cellular proteasomes, to be presented by the MHC I pathway. We have used M as a model to study this process and determine how ER quality control monitors these foreign polymeric proteins and disposes of them through the ER-associated degradation (ERAD) pathway. Using both wild type and mutant HBV M protein, we found that unlike most ERAD substrates, which require ubiquitination for retrotranslocation and degradation, the HBV M protein, which only contains two lysine residues, can undergo rapid and complete, ubiquitin independent, proteasome dependent degradation. The utilization of this pathway had a functional consequence, since proteins degraded through it, were poorly presented via MHC I. To test the hypothesis that the level of ubiquitination, independent of protein degradation, controls the level of antigen presentation, we inserted two additional lysines into both the wild type and mutant M protein. Amazingly, while the addition of the lysine residues dramatically increased the level of ubiquitination, it did not alter the rate of degradation. However and remarkably, the increased ubiquitination was associated with a dramatic increase in the level of antigen presentation. In conclusion, using the HBV surface protein as a model, we have identified a novel ubiquitin independent degradation pathway and determined that this pathway can have implications for antigen presentation and potentially viral pathogenesis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The mannose 6-phosphate receptor homology (MRH) domain-containing family of proteins, which include recycling receptors (mannose 6-phosphate receptors, MPRs), resident endoplasmic reticulum (ER) proteins (glucosidase II β-subunit, XTP3-B, OS-9), and a Golgi glycosyltransferase (GlcNAc-phosphotransferase γ-subunit), are characterized by the presence of one or more MRH domains. Many MRH domains act as lectins and bind specific phosphorylated (MPRs) or non-phosphorylated (glucosidase II β-subunit, XTP3-B and OS-9) high mannose-type N-glycans. The MPRs are the only proteins known to bind mannose 6-phosphate (Man-6-P) residues via their MRH domains. SCOPE OF REVIEW Recent biochemical and structural studies that have provided valuable insight into the glycan specificity and mechanisms of carbohydrate recognition by this diverse group of MRH domain-containing proteins are highlighted. MAJOR CONCLUSIONS Currently, three-dimensional structures are known for ten MRH domains, revealing the conservation of a similar fold. OS-9 and the MPRs use the same four residues (Gln, Arg, Glu, and Tyr) to bind mannose. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE The MRH domain-containing proteins play key roles in the secretory pathway: glucosidase II, XTP3-B, and OS-9 are involved in the recognition of nascent glycoproteins, whereas the MPRs play an essential role in lysosome biogenesis by targeting Man-6-P-containing lysosomal enzymes to the lysosome.

Abstract
The SCF ubiquitin ligase complex consists of four components, Skp1, Cul1, ROC1/Rbx1, and a variable subunit F-box protein, which serves as a receptor for target proteins. The F-box proteins consist of an N-terminal ∼40 amino acid F-box domain that binds to Skp1 and the C-terminal substrate-binding domain. We have reported previously that Fbs1 and Fbs2 are N-linked glycoprotein-specific F-box proteins. In addition, other three F-box proteins, Fbg3, Fbg4, and Fbg5, show high homology to Fbs1 and Fbs2, but their functions remain largely unknown. Here we report that Skp1 assists in correct folding of exogenously expressed F-box proteins. Fbs2 as well as Fbg3, Fbg4, and Fbg5 proteins formed SCF complexes but did not bind to N-glycoproteins when exogenously expressed alone. However, co-expression of Fbs2 and Fbg5 with Skp1 facilitated their binding to glycoproteins that reacted with ConA. Furthermore, Skp1 increased the cellular concentrations of F-box proteins by preventing aggregate formation. These observations suggest that Skp1 plays an important role in stabilizing the conformation of these F-box proteins, which increases their expression levels and substrate-binding.

Abstract
Bax inhibitor-1 (BI-1) is an evolutionarily conserved protein that protects cells against endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress while also affecting the ER stress response. In this study, we examined BI-1-induced regulation of the ER stress response as well as the control of the protein over cell death under ER stress. In BI-1-overexpressing cells (BI-1 cells), proteasome activity was similar to that of control cells; however, the lysosomal fraction of BI-1 cells showed sensitivity to degradation of BSA. In addition, areas and polygonal lengths of lysosomes were greater in BI-1 cells than in control cells, as assessed by fluorescence and electron microscopy. In BI-1 cells, lysosomal pH was lower than in control cells and lysosomal vacuolar H(+)-ATPase(V-ATPase), a proton pump, was activated, suggesting high H(+) uptake into lysosomes. Even when exposed to ER stress, BI-1 cells maintained high levels of lysosomal activities, including V-ATPase activity. Bafilomycin, a V-ATPase inhibitor, leads to the reversal of BI-1-induced regulation of ER stress response and cell death due to ER stress. In BI-1 knock-out mouse embryo fibroblasts, lysosomal activity and number per cell were relatively lower than in BI-1 wild-type cells. This study suggests that highly maintained lysosomal activity may be one of the mechanisms by which BI-1 exerts its regulatory effects on the ER stress response and cell death.

Abstract
The exocrine pancreas has the greatest protein synthetic capacity of any mammalian organ and is challenged with the synthesis, processing and transporting a large load of digestive enzymes. Based on recent findings we present a hypothesis proposing that mutations in the digestive enzymes and environmental risks impacting the pancreas (i.e., alcohol abuse, smoking, metabolic disorders, and drugs) cause endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. We review recent findings showing that in normal pancreas the ER stress resulting from alcohol abuse leads to an adaptive unfolded protein response (UPR) allowing for maintenance of protein synthesis, processing, and transport. However, when key pathways necessary for the adaptive UPR are altered, the exocrine cell of the pancreas is unable to maintain these processes and cellular pathology results. These findings may explain why some individuals with alcohol abuse disorders develop organ injury and disease while most do not. Further, the findings allow us to hypothesize that the UPR in the exocrine pancreas adapts the protein synthetic machinery of the ER stress resulting from mutational and environmental stressors. When the ability of the UPR to adapt to the stressors is exceeded, pathologic pathways and disease develop.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a multifunctional intracellular organelle supporting many processes required by virtually every mammalian cell, including cardiomyocytes. It performs diverse functions, including protein synthesis, translocation across the membrane, integration into the membrane, folding, posttranslational modification including N-linked glycosylation, and synthesis of phospholipids and steroids on the cytoplasmic side of the ER membrane, and regulation of Ca(2+) homeostasis. Perturbation of ER-associated functions results in ER stress via the activation of complex cytoplasmic and nuclear signaling pathways, collectively termed the unfolded protein response (UPR) (also known as misfolded protein response), leading to upregulation of expression of ER resident chaperones, inhibition of protein synthesis and activation of protein degradation. The UPR has been associated with numerous human pathologies, and it may play an important role in the pathophysiology of the heart. ER stress responses, ER Ca(2+) buffering, and protein and lipid turnover impact many cardiac functions, including energy metabolism, cardiogenesis, ischemic/reperfusion, cardiomyopathies, and heart failure. ER proteins and ER stress-associated pathways may play a role in the development of novel UPR-targeted therapies for cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Viruses are perfect opportunists that have evolved to modify numerous cellular processes in order to complete their replication cycle in the host cell. An article by Reggiori and coworkers in this issue of Cell Host & Microbe reveals how coronaviruses can divert a cellular quality control pathway that normally functions in degradation of mis-folded proteins to replicate the viral genome.

Abstract
Interactions of the ESCRT complexes are critical for endosomal trafficking. We identify two domains with potential significance for this process. The MABP domain present in metazoan ESCRT-I/MVB12 subunits, Crag, a regulator of protein sorting, and bacterial pore-forming proteins might mediate novel membrane interactions in trafficking. The UBAP1-MVB12-associated UMA domain found in MVB12 and UBAP1 defines a novel adaptor that might recruit diverse targets to ESCRT-I.

Abstract
Quality control of glycoproteins synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is mediated by lectins and molecular chaperones. N-linked Glc(3)Man(9)GlcNAc(2) oligosaccharides attached to the nascent polypeptides are processed and recognized by lectins in the ER. OS-9 and XTP3-B/Erlectin, mannose 6-phosphate receptor homology (MRH) domain-containing lectins in mammals, were recently identified as ER luminal glycoproteins that participate in ER-associated degradation (ERAD) of misfolded proteins. Frontal affinity chromatography (FAC) and cell-surface expressed lectin assay revealed that both OS-9 and XTP3-B recognize high-mannose type N-glycans that lack the terminal mannose on the C branch. Furthermore, these lectins associate with the HRD1-SEL1L ubiquitin ligase complex on the ER membrane. In this chapter, we describe the FAC methods used to analyze the carbohydrate-recognition specificity of OS-9 and methods to examine the interaction and the effect on ERAD of these proteins in vivo. We also discuss the structure and function of OS-9 and XTP3-B, and the effect of these lectins on ERAD.

Abstract
During the last decade it was unambiguously shown that plants synthesize minute amounts of carbohydrate-binding proteins upon exposure to stress situations like drought, high salt, hormone treatment, pathogen attack or insect herbivory. In contrast to the 'classical' plant lectins, which are typically found in storage vacuoles or in the extracellular compartment this new class of lectins is located in the cytoplasm and the nucleus. Based on these observations the concept was developed that lectin-mediated protein-carbohydrate interactions in the cytoplasm and the nucleus play an important role in the stress physiology of the plant cell. Hitherto, six families of nucleocytoplasmic lectins have been identified. This review gives an overview of our current knowledge on the occurrence of nucleocytoplasmic plant lectins. The carbohydrate-binding properties of these lectins and potential ligands in the nucleocytoplasmic compartment are discussed in view of the physiological role of the lectins in the plant cell.
