Abstract
|
|
|
Ultraviolet radiation resistance-associated gene product (UVRAG) was originally identified as a protein involved in cellular responses to UV irradiation. Subsequent studies have demonstrated that UVRAG plays as an important role in autophagy, a lysosome-dependent catabolic program, as a part of a pro-autophagy PIK3C3/VPS34 lipid kinase complex. Several recent studies have shown that UVRAG is also involved in autophagy-independent cellular functions, such as DNA repair/stability and vesicular trafficking/fusion. Here, we examined the UVRAG protein interactome to obtain information about its functional network. To this end, we screened UVRAG-interacting proteins using a tandem affinity purification method coupled with MALDI-TOF/MS analysis. Our results demonstrate that UVRAG interacts with various proteins involved in a wide spectrum of cellular functions, including genome stability, protein translational elongation, protein localization (trafficking), vacuole organization, transmembrane transport as well as autophagy. Notably, the interactome list of high-confidence UVRAG-interacting proteins is enriched for proteins involved in the regulation of genome stability. Our systematic UVRAG interactome analysis should provide important clues for understanding a variety of UVRAG functions.
