Bacterial ubiquitin-like modifier Pup is deamidated and conjugated to substrates by distinct but homologous enzymes

Abstract: In analogy to ubiquitin in eukaryotes, the bacterial protein Pup is attached to lysine residues of substrate proteins, thereby targeting them for proteasomal degradation. It has been proposed that, before its attachment, Pup is modified by deamidation of its C-terminal glutamine to glutamate. Here we have identified Dop (locus tag Rv2112) as the specific deamidase of Pup in Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Deamidation requires ATP as a cofactor but not its hydrolysis. Furthermore, we provide experimental evidence t… Show more

“…Pup interacts with two processing enzymes, Dop and PafA, that deamidate and couple, respectively, its C-terminus to substrate proteins [15]. This marks the substrates for recognition by the proteasomal chaperone Mpa and degradation by the 20S proteasome [12,14].…”
