ABSTRACT
C-terminus of HSP70 interacting protein (CHIP) is an E3 ubiquitin ligase and HSP70 cochaperone. Mutations in the CHIP encoding gene are the cause of two forms of neurodegenerative conditions spinocerebellar ataxia autosomal dominant type 48 (SCA48) and autosomal recessive type 16 (SCAR16). The mechanisms underlying CHIP-associated diseases are currently unknown. Mitochondrial dysfunction, specifically dysfunction in mitochondrial autophagy (mitophagy), is increasingly being implicated in neurodegenerative diseases and loss of CHIP has been demonstrated to result in mitochondrial dysfunction in multiple animal models, although how CHIP is involved in mitophagy regulation has been previously unknown. Here, we demonstrate that CHIP acts as a negative regulator of the PTEN-induced kinase 1 (PINK1)/Parkin-mediated mitophagy pathway, promoting the degradation of PINK, impairing Parkin translocation to the mitochondria, and suppressing mitophagy in response to mitochondrial stress. We also show that loss of CHIP enhances neuronal mitophagy in a PINK1 and Parkin dependent manner in Caenorhabditis elegans. Furthermore, we find that multiple disease-associated mutations in CHIP dysregulate mitophagy both in vitro and in vivo in C. elegans neurons, a finding which could implicate mitophagy dysregulation in CHIP-associated diseases.
