ABSTRACT

G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling and trafficking are regulated by multiple mechanisms, including posttranslational modifications such as ubiquitination by E3 ubiquitin ligases. E3 ligases have been linked to agonist-stimulated ubiquitination of GPCRs via simultaneous binding to ßarrestins. In addition, ßarrestins have been suggested to assist E3 ligases for ubiquitination of key effector molecules, yet mechanistic insight is lacking. Here, we developed an in vitro reconstituted system and show that ßarrestin1 (ßarr1) serves as an adaptor between the effector protein signal-transducing adaptor molecule 1 (STAM1) and the E3 ligase atrophin-interacting protein 4. Via mass spectrometry, we identified seven lysine residues within STAM1 that are ubiquitinated and several types of ubiquitin linkages. We provide evidence that ßarr1 facilitates the formation of linear polyubiquitin chains at lysine residue 136 on STAM1. This lysine residue is important for stabilizing the ßarr1:STAM1 interaction in cells following GPCR activation. Our study identifies atrophin-interacting protein 4 as only the second E3 ligase known to conjugate linear polyubiquitin chains and a possible role for linear ubiquitin chains in GPCR signaling and trafficking.
