Mutations in alpha-synuclein, Parkin, and UCH-L1 cause heritable forms of Parkinson disease. Unlike alpha-synuclein, for which no precise biochemical function has been elucidated, Parkin functions as a ubiquitin E3 ligase, and UCH-L1 is a deubiquitinating enzyme. The E3 ligase activity of Parkin in Parkinson disease is poorly understood and is further obscured by the fact that multiubiquitin chains can be formed through distinct types of linkages that regulate diverse cellular processes. For instance, ubiquitin lysine 48-linked multiubiquitin chains target substrates to the proteasome, whereas ubiquitin lysine 63-linked chains control ribosome function, protein sorting and trafficking, and endocytosis of membrane proteins. It is notable in this regard that ubiquitin lysine 63-linked chains promote the degradation of membrane proteins by the lysosome. Because both Parkin and alpha-synuclein can regulate the activity of the dopamine transporter, we investigated whether they influenced ubiquitin lysine 63-linked chain assembly. These studies revealed novel biochemical activities for both Parkin and alpha-synuclein. We determined that Parkin functions with UbcH13/Uev1a, a dimeric ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme, to assemble ubiquitin lysine 63-linked chains. Our results and the results of others indicate that Parkin can promote both lysine 48- and lysine 63-linked ubiquitin chains. alpha-Synuclein also stimulated the assembly of lysine 63-linked ubiquitin chains. Because UCH-L1, a ubiquitin hydrolase, was recently reported to form lysine 63-linked conjugates, it is evident that three proteins that are genetically linked to Parkinson disease can contribute to lysine 63 multiubiquitin chain formation.
