Article Title: Crosstalk between the ribosome quality control‐associated E3 ubiquitin ligases LTN1 and RNF10

Journal: Febs Letters

doi: 10.1002/1873-3468.70230

Figure Legend Snippet: Loss of LTN1 leads to upregulation of RNF10 in human and mouse cells. (A) Western blot analysis of E3 ubiquitin‐protein ligase ZNF598 (ZNF598), E3 ubiquitin‐protein ligase listerin (LTN1), Ribosome quality control complex subunit NEMF (NEMF), and E3 ubiquitin‐protein ligase RNF10 (RNF10) in various KO HEK293T cells. (B) Proteomics‐based expression profile of LTN1 across various mouse tissues . Dark blue indicates a higher expression level. This figure was prepared by the authors of this article. (C) Western blot validation of LTN1, NEMF and RNF10 protein levels in mouse tissues. Ponceau stain was used as a loading control. (D) Western blot analysis of RNF10 expression in the mouse pancreatic β‐cell line MIN6 expressing sgRNA. RNF10 expression was strongly increased in LTN1‐deficient cells (lanes 1 and 3). (E) The uS3 ubiquitination level was detected by western blotting using anti‐uS3 antibody. Mono‐ubiquitinated uS3 was indicated by the arrow.

Techniques Used: Western Blot, Ubiquitin Proteomics, Control, Expressing, Biomarker Discovery, Staining

The increase in RNF10 protein levels is partially dependent on upregulation of mRNA. Relative expression levels of RNF10 mRNA and protein were quantified by RT‐qPCR and western blotting. Vertical axes indicate relative expression level of mRNA/protein normalized by GAPDH compared to WT. Error bars represent mean ± SEM of three independent experiments. Statistical significance was evaluated using a two‐tailed unpaired Student's t ‐test. * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001. N.S. not significant. (A)HEK293T (B) MIN6.

Genes with baseMean > 10, adjusted P ‐value (padj) < 0.1, and absolute log 2 fold change > 0.2 are highlighted in red (upregulated) or blue (downregulated). (B) Results of KEGG pathway over‐representation analysis of upregulated genes. (C) Western blot analysis of RNF10 protein levels in ubiquitin‐fold modifier 1 (UFM1) or Ufm1‐specific protease 2 (UFSP2) KO HEK293T cells.

Data represent mean ± SEM from three independent experiments. Statistical significance was assessed using a two‐tailed unpaired Student's t ‐test. * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01. (E) Proposed model. Knockout of LTN1, UFM1, or UFSP2 impairs ER‐associated ribosome quality control (ER‐RQC), which may activate compensatory mechanisms. Upregulation of RNF10, together with increased uS3 mono‐ubiquitination, could represent an adaptive response to ER‐RQC defects, helping to maintain cellular homeostasis. LTN1 regulates the expression level of RNF10 via its RING domain.

Figure Lengend Snippet: hAMSC‐sEV‐miR‐21‐5p targets the IL‐6RA/STAT3 axis to ameliorate β‐cell senescence. (a) Heatmap shows differentially regulated genes (|log₂FC| > 1, p < 0.05) between senescent MIN6 cells (S) and hAMSC‐sEV–treated senescent MIN6 cells (sEVs) by RNA‐seq.

(c) Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) indicates enrichment for the IL‐6 family cytokine receptor–ligand interaction signature (NES, normalized enrichment score).

Integrated multi‐omics profiling reveals STAT3‐mediated transcriptional regulation of Mcu in β‐cell senescence. (a) Heatmaps show CUT&Tag‐seq signals of phosphorylated STAT3 (pY705‐STAT3) around transcription start sites (TSSs) in H₂O₂‐induced senescent MIN6 cells (S_1/S_2) versus normal controls (Ctrl_1/Ctrl_2). (b) KEGG pathway enrichment is shown for genes associated with differential pSTAT3 binding peaks; the top six pathways ranked by significance are listed with genes. (c) De novo motif analysis using HOMER identifies a characteristic pSTAT3 motif; motif significance is indicated by grayscale letter height. (d) Venn diagram illustrates convergence of RNA‐seq differentially expressed genes (DEGs, blue), proteomic differentially expressed proteins (DEPs, red), and CUT&Tag binding peaks (green) in senescent (S) versus control (Ctrl) MIN6 cells. (e) JASPAR‐predicted STAT3 binding motifs are mapped in the Mcu promoter. (f, g) Luciferase assays assess serial 5′ truncations (f) and site‐directed mutants (g) of the Mcu promoter in MIN6 cells after IL‐6 stimulation; n = 6 per group. (h) ChIP‐qPCR validates phosphorylation‐dependent STAT3 occupancy at the Mcu promoter; n = 6 per group. (i) Western blots show MCU, PDX1, p21, and IL‐6 in H₂O₂‐induced senescent MIN6 cells transfected with OE‐ Mcu or OE‐NC for 48 h. Data are presented as mean ± SEM. ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001, **** p < 0.0001; ns, not significant.
