Autophagy regulation: RNF2 targets AMBRA1

Abstract: npgThe phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase complex I (PI3K complex I) is a crucial regulator of autophagy, which contains Beclin 1 (or ATG6), ATG14L, VPS34 (or the class III phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and its adaptor VPS15) and AMBRA1, and controls autophagosome formation. In a paper recently published in Cell Research, Xia et al. report that during nutrient deprivation the ubiquitin E3 ligase RNF2 is recruited to the PI3K complex I, and ubiquitinates AMBRA1 to trigger its degradation and downregulate autophagy.M… Show more

“…CUL4 can re-associate with AMBRA1 to promote its proteolysis when autophagy terminates, thus regulating autophagy response [ 55 ]. What’s more, E3 ligase RNF2 can also catalyze K48-linked ubiquitination and proteolysis of AMBRA1, thus downregulating autophagy [ 246 ]. Therefore, all the components of the Class III PI3K complex can be regulated by ubiquitination, which exerts important effects on autophagy.…”

“…WASH recruits the RING-type E3 ligase RNF2 ( ring finger protein 2/Ring1b ), which ubiquitinates the residue Lys45 within AMBRA 1 with a Lys48-linked polyubiquitin chain. This modification primes AMBRA 1 for the degradation by the 26S proteasome and finally results in the down-regulation of autophagy [ 75 , 76 ].…”

“…Huang et al indicated that miR-200b inhibits autophagy and triggers apoptosis by directly targeting the autophagy-related gene Ambra1 (autophagy/Be-clin1 regulatory factor 1) [26]. The phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase complex I (PI3K complex I) is a crucial regulator of autophagy, which contains Beclin 1, a long ATG14 isoform of autophagy-related gene 14 (ATG14L), vacuolar protein sorting 34 (VPS34), and Ambra1, and controls autophagosome formation [27].…”
