malfunction | without this enzyme, the clearance of ruptured lysosomes is compromised not only upon lysosomal damage but also under normal conditions, revealing its adaptive and constitutive functions. Depletion of the E2 enzyme UBE2QL1 successfully inhibits damage-induced lysosomal ubiquitination. UBE2QL1 depletion affection is greater for K48-linked ubiquitination (K48-Ub) than K63-linked ubiquitination (K63-Ub) | Homo sapiens |
metabolism | the enzyme is involved in lysophagy induced by lysosomal membrane rupture, pathway overview | Homo sapiens |
physiological function | although damaged lysosomes with ruptured membranes can be repaired, these dangerous organelles are also selectively eliminated by autophagic degradation termed lysophagy. This process is initiated by ubiquitination of lysosomal proteins. The E2 enzyme UBE2QL1 catalyzes ubiquitination of damaged lysosomes. UBE2QL1-mediated ubiquitination of lysosomal proteins is crucial for lysophagy following various types of lysosomal damage. L-leucyl-L-leucine methyl ester (LLOMe) treatment induces both ubiquitin K48- and K63-linked ubiquitination through damage of lysosomal membranes. UBE2QL1 has a constitutive housekeeping role in lysosomal homeostasis. UBE2QL1-dependent ubiquitination recruits VCP and SQSTM1 and induces autophagosome formation. Identification of lysosomal membrane proteins, including LIMP2, NPC1, LAMP1, and LAMP2, as potential targets of ubiquitination. UBE2QL1 itself might recognize membrane pores of damaged lysosomes or it might be recruited by an E3 enzyme | Homo sapiens |
