Cullin 3 Exon 9 Deletion in Familial Hyperkalemic Hypertension Impairs Cullin3-Ring-E3 Ligase (CRL3) Dynamic Regulation and Cycling
Archive ouverte
International audience. Cullin 3 (CUL3) is the scaffold of Cullin3 Ring E3-ligases (CRL3s), which use various BTB-adaptor proteins to ubiquitinate numerous substrates targeting their proteasomal degradation. CUL3 mutations, responsible for a severe form of familial hyperkalemia and hypertension (FHHt), all result in a deletion of exon 9 (amino-acids 403-459) (CUL3-∆9). Surprisingly, while CUL3-∆9 is hyperneddylated, a post-translational modification that typically activates CRL complexes, it is unable to ubiquitinate its substrates. In order to understand the mechanisms behind this loss-of function, we performed comparative label-free quantitative analyses of CUL3 and CUL3-∆9 interactome by mass spectrometry. It was observed that CUL3-∆9 interactions with COP9 and CAND1, both involved in CRL3 complexes' dynamic assembly, were disrupted. These defects result in a reduction in the dynamic cycling of the CRL3 complexes, making the CRL3-∆9 complex an inactive BTB-adaptor trap, as demonstrated by SILAC experiments. Collectively, the data indicated that the hyperneddylated CUL3-∆9 protein is inactive as a consequence of several structural changes disrupting its dynamic interactions with key regulatory partners.
