Rabbit Anti-SQSTM1/p62 Antibody from MyBioSource.com

Function: Autophagy receptor required for selective macroautophagy (aggrephagy). Functions as a bridge between polyubiquitinated cargo and autophagosomes. Interacts directly with both the cargo to become degraded and an autophagy modifier of the MAP1 LC3 family (PubMed:16286508, PubMed:20168092, PubMed:24128730, PubMed:28404643, PubMed:22622177). Along with WDFY3, involved in the formation and autophagic degradation of cytoplasmic ubiquitin-containing inclusions (p62 bodies, ALIS/aggresome-like induced structures). Along with WDFY3, required to recruit ubiquitinated proteins to PML bodies in the nucleus (PubMed:24128730, PubMed:20168092). May regulate the activation of NFKB1 by TNF-alpha, nerve growth factor (NGF) and interleukin-1. May play a role in titin/TTN downstream signaling in muscle cells. May regulate signaling cascades through ubiquitination. Adapter that mediates the interaction between TRAF6 and CYLD (By similarity). May be involved in cell differentiation, apoptosis, immune response and regulation of K+ channels. Involved in endosome organization by retaining vesicles in the perinuclear cloud: following ubiquitination by RNF26, attracts specific vesicle-associated adapters, forming a molecular bridge that restrains cognate vesicles in the perinuclear region and organizes the endosomal pathway for efficient cargo transport (PubMed:27368102).
Subunit Structure: Homooligomer or heterooligomer; may form homotypic arrays. Dimerization interferes with ubiquitin binding. Interacts directly with PRKCI and PRKCZ (Probable). Forms ternary complexes with PRKCZ and KCNAB2 or PRKCZ and GABBR3. Also interacts with KCNAB1, GABRR1, GABRR2 and GABRR3. Forms an NGF-induced complex with IKBKB, PRKCI and TRAF6 (By similarity). Interacts with EBI3, LCK, RASA1, PRKCZ, PRKCI, NR2F2, NTRK1, NTRK2, NTRK3, NBR1, MAP2K5, TRIM13, TRIM55 and MAPKAPK5. Interacts with the proteasome subunits PSMD4 and PSMC2. Interacts with K63-polyubiquitinated MAPT/TAU. Interacts with IKBKB through PRKCZ and PRKCI. Interacts with NGFR through TRAF6 and bridges that complex to NTRK1. Forms a complex with MAP2K5 and PRKCZ or PRKCI. Component of a ternary complex with PAWR and PRKCZ. Upon TNF-alpha stimulation, interacts with RIPK1 probably bridging IKBKB to the TNF-R1 complex composed of TNF-R1/TNFRSF1A, TRADD and RIPK1. Forms a complex with JUB/Ajuba, PRKCZ and TRAF6. Interacts with TRAF6 and CYLD. Identified in a complex with TRAF6 and CYLD (By similarity). Identified in a heterotrimeric complex with ubiquitin and ZFAND5, where ZFAND5 and SQSTM1 both interact with the same ubiquitin molecule. Directly interacts with MAP1LC3A and MAP1LC3B, as well as with other MAP1 LC3 family members, including GABARAP, GABARAPL1 and GABARAPL2; these interactions are necessary for the recruitment MAP1 LC3 family members to inclusion bodies containing polyubiquitinated protein aggregates and for their degradation by autophagy. Interacts with FHOD3. Interacts with TRMI5. Interacts with SESN1 (PubMed:23274085). Interacts with SESN2 (PubMed:23274085, PubMed:25040165). Interacts with ULK1 (PubMed:25040165). Interacts with UBD (PubMed:25422469). Interacts with WDR81; the interaction is direct and regulates the interaction of SQSTM1 with ubiquitinated proteins (PubMed:28404643). Interacts with WDFY3; this interaction is required to recruit WDFY3 to cytoplasmic bodies and to PML bodies (PubMed:20168092). Interacts with TRIM23 (PubMed:28871090). Interacts with LRRC25 (PubMed:29288164).
Post-translational Modifications: Phosphorylated. May be phosphorylated by PRKCZ (By similarity). Phosphorylated in vitro by TTN. Phosphorylation at Ser-403 by ULK1 is stimulated by SESN2 (PubMed:25040165). Ubiquitinated by RNF26: ubiquitinated SQSTM1 attracts specific vesicle-associated adapters, forming a molecular bridge that restrains cognate vesicles in the perinuclear region and organizes the endosomal pathway for efficient cargo transport (PubMed:27368102). Deubiquitination by USP15 releases target vesicles for fast transport into the cell periphery (PubMed:27368102).
Similarity: The UBA domain binds specifically 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitin chains of polyubiquitinated substrates. Mediates the interaction with TRIM55. Both the UBA and PB1 domains are necessary and sufficient for the localization into the ubiquitin-containing inclusion bodies.The PB1 domain mediates homooligomerization and interactions with FHOD3, MAP2K5, NBR1, PRKCI, PRKCZ and WDR81. Both the PB1 and UBA domains are necessary and sufficient for the localization into the ubiquitin-containing inclusion bodies.The ZZ-type zinc finger mediates the interaction with RIPK1.The LIR (LC3-interacting region) motif mediates the interaction with ATG8 family proteins
