Figure Lengend Snippet: a, Cumulative incidence curve showing fraction of SERPs subjected to N-to-C degradation in the presence or absence p97 inhibitor CB5083. Control data is replotted from for comparison (n = 130 traces (control) and n = 70 traces (+CB5083) from 2-3 independent repeats). b, Proteasomal degradation rate for N-to-C degradation in the presence or absence of CB5083. Each data point represents the median from an independent experiment. Horizontal line and error bars represent mean ± s.d of medians (n = 62 traces (control) and n = 36 traces (+CB5083) from 3 independent repeats). Unpaired Student’s t-test was used for statistical analysis. c, Kaplan-Meier survival curves showing proteasomal processivity for N-to-C degradation in the presence or absence of CB5083. Line and shaded region indicate mean ± s.d (n = 62 traces (control) and n = 36 traces (+CB5083) from 2-3 independent repeats).

Article Snippet: To examine the impact of proteasome and p97/VCP inhibition on SERP degradation, cells were pre-treated for 10 minutes with either MG132 (10 μM; Merck) or CB5083 (5 μM; MedChemExpress) prior to the start of imaging.

Figure Lengend Snippet: a, Analysis of proteasomal degradation rate for C-to-N directionality in the presence or absence of the p97 inhibitor CB5083. Each data point represents the median from an independent experiment. Horizontal line and error bars represent mean ± s.d of medians (n = 63 traces (control) and 95 traces (+CB5083) from 3 independent repeats). b, Kaplan-Meier survival curves representing proteasome processivity for C-to-N degradation in the presence or absence of CB5083. Line and shaded region indicate mean ± s.d (n = 63 traces (control) and 95 traces (+CB5083) from 3 independent repeats). c, Schematic illustrating the role of p97 in extracting the nascent polypeptide from the ribosome to allow proteasome engagement with the nascent polypeptide. d,e, Representative intensity-time trace for a SERP undergoing synthesis and subsequent decay upon ribosome quality control. The plateau phase represents the time from ribosome stalling at the end of the cleaved mRNA to degradation by the proteasome. Untreated cell (d) and cell treated with the p97 inhibitor CB5083 (e) are shown. The pronounced plateau phase upon p97 inhibition is likely caused by slow extraction of the nascent chain from the 60S ribosome. f, Cumulative incidence curve showing the fraction of SERPs that has initiated degradation relative to the moment of ribosome stalling (i.e. plateau onset) (n = 167 traces (control) and 95 traces (+CB5083) from 3-6 independent repeats). g, Schematic illustrating internal substrate engagement by the proteasome. h, Schematic of the socRNA used for internal substrate recruitment experiments. The socRNA encodes 15×SunTag repeats, 2×ALFA-tag repeats, and a single dTAG-inducible degron. i, Cells expressing the internal dTAG SERP shown in (h) were treated with 500 nM dTAG ligand (dTAGv-1) in the presence or absence of the p97 inhibitor CB5083. Scale bars, 10 μm. j, Quantification of SERP degradation kinetics following addition of 500 nM dTAGv-1. Pre-treatment of cells with p97 inhibitor CB5083 prevents degradation. Line and shaded region indicate mean ± s.d (n = 10 fields of view (control), n = 8 fields of view (+dTAGv-1) and n = 7 fields of view (+dTAGv-1+CB5083) from 2-3 independent repeats). k, Design of socRNA used to assess internal degradation via poly-leucine degrons, which is made up of two stretches of five consecutive leucine residues. l, Quantification of degradation kinetics of polyleucine-containing SERPs encoded by the socRNA construct shown in (k). Pre-treatment of cells with VCP inhibitor CB5083 prevents degradation. Line and shaded region indicate mean ± s.d (n = 10 fields of view (control), n = 8 fields of view (2x(Leu) 5 ) and n = 8 fields of view (2x(Leu) 5 +CB5083) from 2-3 independent repeats). m, Fraction of SERPs undergoing fragmentation during the degradation phase across indicated assays. Each data point represents the median from an independent experiment (n = 41 traces (N-to-C assay), n = 55 traces (C-to-N assay) and n = 44 traces (5 nM dTAGv-1) from 2 independent repeats). n, Average SERP size aligned to the moment of protein fragmentation in cells treated with 5 nM dTAGv-1. Dashed line represents the moment of SERP fragmentation. SERPs were produced as shown in (h). Only events that exhibited fragmentation were included in the analysis. Line and shaded region indicate mean ± s.d (n = 23 traces from 2 independent repeats). (a, m), Unpaired Student’s t-test was used for statistical analysis. * denotes p < 0.05. (b, f), Log-rank (Mantel-Cox) test was used for statistical analysis. **** denotes p<0.0001.

Upon fragmentation, one of the two SERP fragments is degraded, while the other fragment remains stable over time. e, Representative intensity time-trace of a SERP undergoing fragmentation and degradation in the presence of 5 nM dTAGv-1. One of the two SERP fragments is completely degraded while the other SERP fragment remains stable over time. f, Quantification of number of SERP fragments that underwent degradation after fragmentation into two fragments.

Data points represent individual degradation events. Horizontal line and error bars represent mean ± s.d (n = 40 traces from 2 independent repeats).
