Paper
An E3 ligase network engages GCN1 to promote elongation factor-1α degradation on stalled ribosomes
2022
Overview
How cells monitor the status of translating ribosomes is a major question in gene regulation. Elongating ribosomes frequently stall during mRNA translation, resulting in context-dependent activation of quality control pathways. However, surveillance mechanisms that specifically respond to stalled ribosomes with an elongation factor occupying the GTPase center have not been identified. By employing ternatin-4, an allosteric elongation factor-1α (eEF1A) inhibitor, we unveil an E3 ligase network that triggers ubiquitination and degradation of eEF1A on stalled ribosomes. A CRISPRi screen revealed two E3 ligases of unknown function, RNF14 and RNF25, which are both essential for ternatin-induced eEF1A degradation. Based on quantitative proteomics analysis, we find that RNF14 and RNF25 promote ubiquitination of eEF1A and a discrete set of ribosomal proteins. By forming a complex with RNF14, the ribosome collision sensor GCN1 plays an essential role in eEF1A degradation. Our findings illuminate a translation elongation checkpoint that monitors the ribosomal GTPase center. Competing Interest Statement The University of California, San Francisco has filed a provisional patent application related to this study; J.T., H.Y.W., and K.O. are listed as inventors.
