Proteomic Characterization of Ubiquitin Carboxyl-Terminal Hydrolase 19 Deficient Cells Reveals a Role for USP19 in the Secretion of Lysosomal Proteins.

Ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 19 (USP19) is a unique deubiquitinase, characterized by multiple variants generated by alternative splicing. Several variants bear a C-terminal transmembrane domain that anchors them to the endoplasmic reticulum. Other than regulating protein stability by preventing proteasome degradation, USP19 has been reported to rescue substrates from endoplasmic reticulum-associated protein degradation in a catalytic-independent manner, promote autophagy, and address proteins to lysosomal degradation via endosomal microautophagy. USP19 has recently emerged as the protein responsible for the unconventional secretion of misfolded proteins including Parkinson's disease-associated protein α-synuclein. Despite mounting evidence that USP19 plays crucial roles in several biological processes, the underlying mechanisms are unclear due to lack of information on the physiological substrates of USP19. Herein, we used high-resolution quantitative proteomics to analyze changes in the secretome and cell proteome induced by the loss of USP19 to identify proteins whose secretion or turnover is regulated by USP19. We found that ablation of USP19 induced significant proteomic alterations both in and out of the cell. Loss of USP19 impaired the release of several lysosomal proteins, including legumain (LGMN) and several cathepsins. In order to understand the underlaying mechanism, we dissected the USP19-regulated secretion of LGMN in several cell types. We found that LGMN was not a deubiquitinase substrate of USP19 and that its USP19-dependent release did not require their direct interaction. LGMN secretion occurred by a mechanism that involved the Golgi apparatus, autophagosome formation, and lysosome function. This mechanism resembled the recently described "lysosomal exocytosis," by which lysosomal hydrolases are secreted, when ubiquitination of p62 is increased in cells lacking deubiquitinases such as USP15 and USP17. In conclusion, our proteomic characterization of USP19 has identified a collection of proteins in the secretome and within the cell that are regulated by USP19, which link USP19 to the secretion of lysosomal proteins, including LGMN.

A CRISPR-Cas9 screen identifies LAPTM4A (lysosomal protein transmembrane 4 alpha) as a key host barrier against PRRSV infection.

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) manipulates host intracellular processes, particularly macroautophagy/autophagy and lysosomal function, to facilitate its replication and spread. However, the precise host factors and molecular mechanisms by which PRRSV remodels the autophagy-lysosome axis remain poorly defined. Here, we performed a CRISPR-Cas9 knockout screen targeting 1,332 genes involved in protein degradation, metabolism, and vesicular trafficking, and identified LAPTM4A (lysosomal protein transmembrane 4 alpha) as a critical antiviral factor involved in the lysosomal pathway. A yeast two-hybrid screen identified LAPTM4A as an interactor of PRRSV GP5 (glycoprotein 5). Mechanistically, GP5 recruits the E3 ubiquitin ligase NEDD4 and the autophagy receptor SQSTM1/p62 to promote K63-linked polyubiquitination of LAPTM4A, leading to its autophagic degradation. This selective degradation activates the AMPK-ULK1-MAP1LC3/LC3 signaling cascade, initiating autophagy while facilitating MTOR-lysosome colocalization, thereby suppressing TFEB nuclear translocation and transcription of lysosome-related genes. The resulting incomplete autophagic flux enhances viral replication. Additionally, in terms of host defense, LAPTM4A maintains lysosomal homeostasis by restraining excessive autophagy through AMPK-ULK1-LC3 signaling and promoting TFEB-dependent lysosomal gene expression by impairing the binding of RPTOR/raptor to MTOR, thus providing broad antiviral protection against multiple RNA viruses. Collectively, our findings identify LAPTM4A as a central regulator of lysosome-autophagy homeostasis and reveal a viral strategy that dismantles this defense axis to facilitate infection.Abbreviations: ATG5: autophagy related 5; AMPK: adenosine 5'-monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase; Baf A1: bafilomycin A1; CHX: cycloheximide; Co-IP: co-immunoprecipitation; DMVT library: protein degradation, metabolism, and vesicular trafficking library; LAPTM4A: lysosomal protein transmembrane 4 alpha; MAGeCK: model-based analysis of genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 knockout; MOI: multiplicity of infection; MTOR: mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase; NC: negative control; PAMs: porcine alveolar macrophages; PRKAA/AMPKα: protein kinase AMP-activated catalytic subunit alpha; PRRSV: porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus; qRT-PCR: quantitative real-time PCR; siRNA: small interfering RNA; SQSTM1/p62: sequestosome 1; TCID50: 50% tissue culture infective dose; TFEB: transcription factor EB; Ub: ubiquitin; ULK1: unc-51 like autophagy activating kinase 1; WT: wild type.
