ABSTRACT

We have previously documented that in liver cells, the multifunctional protein scaffold p62/SQSTM1 is closely associated with IκBα, an inhibitor of the transcriptional activator NF-κB. Such an intimate p62-IκBα association we now document leads to a marked 18-fold proteolytic IκBα-stabilization, enabling its nuclear entry and termination of the NF-κB-activation cycle. In p62-/--cells, such termination is abrogated resulting in the nuclear persistence and prolonged activation of NF-κB following inflammatory stimuli. Utilizing various approaches both classic (structural deletion, site-directed mutagenesis) as well as novel (in-cell chemical crosslinking), coupled with proteomic analyses, we have defined the precise structural hotspots of p62-IκBα association. Accordingly, we have identified such IκBα hotspots to reside around N-terminal (K38, K47, and K67) and C-terminal (K238/C239) residues in its fifth ankyrin repeat domain. These sites interact with two hotspots in p62: One in its PB-1 subdomain around K13, and the other comprised of a positively charged patch (R183/R186/K187/K189) between its ZZ- and TB-subdomains. APEX proximity analyses upon IκBα-cotransfection of cells with and without p62 have enabled the characterization of the p62 influence on IκBα-protein-protein interactions. Interestingly, consistent with p62's capacity to proteolytically stabilize IκBα, its presence greatly impaired IκBα's interactions with various 20S/26S proteasomal subunits. Furthermore, consistent with p62 interaction with IκBα on an interface opposite to that of its NF-κB-interacting interface, p62 failed to significantly affect IκBα-NF-κB interactions. These collective findings together with the known dynamic p62 nucleocytoplasmic shuttling leads us to speculate that it may be involved in "piggy-back" nuclear transport of IκBα following its NF-κB-elicited transcriptional activation and de novo synthesis, required for termination of the NF-κB-activation cycle. Consequently, mice carrying a liver-specific deletion of p62-residues 68 to 252 reveal age-dependent-enhanced liver inflammation. Our findings reveal yet another mode of p62-mediated pathophysiologically relevant regulation of NF-κB.
