Abstract | REV1 is an evolutionarily conserved Y-family DNA polymerase
involved in DNA damage response. Here we demonstrate that
human REV1 protein undergoes polyubiquitination and proteosome-dependent
degradation. REV1 is an unstable enzyme with
high protein turnover. However, REV1 protein can be stabilized
by proteasome inhibitors such as MG132 and PS1. Transient
transfection of ubiquitin showed that hREV1 is polyubiquitinated.
Subsequent to this modification the steady state protein level of
REV1 decreased, suggesting that polyubiquitination targets REV1
to proteasome-mediated degradation. REV7, also called MAD2B,
is a homolog of mitotic checkpoint protein MAD2 and it interacts
directly with REV1. Both REV7 and MAD2 associate with and
regulate CDC20, an activator of anaphase promoting complex
(APC). Suppression of REV7 expression by shRNA considerably
reduced REV1 polyubiquitination, whereas overexpression of
CDC20 promoted polyubiquitination of REV1 and its subsequent
degradation by proteasome. Upon UV irradiation or treatment
with a radiomimetic drug bleomycin, polyubiquitination of REV1 is
prohibited. Our findings provide an explanation to a physiologically
relevant scenario in which UV irradiation suppresses REV1 polyubiquitination,
hence making more REV1 available for translesion
synthesis (TLS). On the other hand, given its low fidelity, REV1
is sustained to a minimal level by polyubiquitination to prevent its
interference with DNA replication by replicative DNA polymerases.
Our work reveals a new mechanism for regulated degradation of a
TLS polymerase. |
