    Description: Ubiquitination is a crucial cellular signalling process, and is controlled on multiple levels. Cullin-RING E3 ubiquitin ligases (CRLs) are regulated by the eight-subunit COP9 signalosome (CSN). CSN inactivates CRLs by removing their covalently attached activator, NEDD8. NEDD8 cleavage by CSN is catalysed by CSN5, a Zn(2+)-dependent isopeptidase that is inactive in isolation. Here we present the crystal structure of the entire approximately 350-kDa human CSN holoenzyme at 3.8 A resolution, detailing the molecular architecture of the complex. CSN has two organizational centres: a horseshoe-shaped ring created by its six proteasome lid-CSN-initiation factor 3 (PCI) domain proteins, and a large bundle formed by the carboxy-terminal alpha-helices of every subunit. CSN5 and its dimerization partner, CSN6, are intricately embedded at the core of the helical bundle. In the substrate-free holoenzyme, CSN5 is autoinhibited, which precludes access to the active site. We find that neddylated CRL binding to CSN is sensed by CSN4, and communicated to CSN5 with the assistance of CSN6, resulting in activation of the deneddylase.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lingaraju, Gondichatnahalli M -- Bunker, Richard D -- Cavadini, Simone -- Hess, Daniel -- Hassiepen, Ulrich -- Renatus, Martin -- Fischer, Eric S -- Thoma, Nicolas H -- England -- Nature. 2014 Aug 14;512(7513):161-5. doi: 10.1038/nature13566.

    Description: Thalidomide and its derivatives, lenalidomide and pomalidomide, are immune modulatory drugs (IMiDs) used in the treatment of haematologic malignancies. IMiDs bind CRBN, the substrate receptor of the CUL4-RBX1-DDB1-CRBN (also known as CRL4(CRBN)) E3 ubiquitin ligase, and inhibit ubiquitination of endogenous CRL4(CRBN) substrates. Unexpectedly, IMiDs also repurpose the ligase to target new proteins for degradation. Lenalidomide induces degradation of the lymphoid transcription factors Ikaros and Aiolos (also known as IKZF1 and IKZF3), and casein kinase 1alpha (CK1alpha), which contributes to its clinical efficacy in the treatment of multiple myeloma and 5q-deletion associated myelodysplastic syndrome (del(5q) MDS), respectively. How lenalidomide alters the specificity of the ligase to degrade these proteins remains elusive. Here we present the 2.45 A crystal structure of DDB1-CRBN bound to lenalidomide and CK1alpha. CRBN and lenalidomide jointly provide the binding interface for a CK1alpha beta-hairpin-loop located in the kinase N-lobe. We show that CK1alpha binding to CRL4(CRBN) is strictly dependent on the presence of an IMiD. Binding of IKZF1 to CRBN similarly requires the compound and both, IKZF1 and CK1alpha, use a related binding mode. Our study provides a mechanistic explanation for the selective efficacy of lenalidomide in del(5q) MDS therapy. We anticipate that high-affinity protein-protein interactions induced by small molecules will provide opportunities for drug development, particularly for targeted protein degradation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Petzold, Georg -- Fischer, Eric S -- Thoma, Nicolas H -- England -- Nature. 2016 Apr 7;532(7597):127-30. doi: 10.1038/nature16979.
