13. d is estimated to be in the high micromolar range. By studying a transferrin receptor that has been recombinantly fused with ubiquitin, this report provides evidence that Hrs can recognise ubiquitinated cargo and retain it in the endosomal bilayered Hrs/clathrin coat, thereby preventing recycling.

Cell. 108:2002;261-269 Germline mutant embryos that lack full-length Hrs protein die early in embryogenesis, whereas zygotic mutants make it to the third-instar larvae/early pupae stage, probably owing to long-lived, maternally deposited Hrs. Hrs mutant larvae have enlarged endosomes, owing to an inability of endosomes to invaginate their limiting membrane, and hence a reduction in the number of multivesicular endosomes (MVEs) is observed. Hrs mutant embryos have increased activation and signalling from epidermal growth factor and Torso receptors, suggesting that trafficking into MVEs plays an important role in signal attenuation.

Cell Biol. 157:2002;91-101 This report shows that ubiquitinated proteins accumulate on epidermal growth factor (EGF)-containing endosomes in EGF-stimulated cells, together with mammalian class E proteins such as Tsg101 and hVps28. These proteins, in addition to Hrs, are further shown to interact with ubiquitin. Microinjection of anti-hVps28 antibodies or depletion of Tsg101 by small interfering RNA cause ubiquitinated proteins to accumulate on endosomes and retard EGF degradation.

Cell Biol. 4:2002;534-539 Co-immunoprecipitation experiments indicate that Vps27p and Hse1p form a complex, and both proteins are pulled down from yeast cell lysates using ubiquitin beads. Mutations in the ubiquitin-interacting motif of both proteins result in specific defects in the sorting of ubiquitinated proteins into the vacuole lumen.

Nature. 416:2002;451-455 Several endocytic proteins, such as Hrs, Eps15 and Epsins, are monoubiquitinated in EGF-stimulated cells, and a functional ubiquitin-interacting motif (UIM) is required for this modification. The authors predict the existence of a UIM-/ubiquitin-based network of endocytic proteins and ubiquitinated cargo.

Cell. 13:2002;1313-1328 This report shows beautiful electron microscopy (EM) images of the endosomal clathrin/Hrs coat. The authors suggest a role for this coat in lysosomal protein sorting. Quantitative immuno-EM shows that the lysosomal targeted growth hormone receptor and the epidermal growth factor receptor are concentrated in the coat, whereas the recycling transferrin receptor is not.

Biol. 12:2002;R74-R78 This review summarises studies in C. elegans, Drosophila and mouse reported in 2001 showing the roles of four E3 ubiquitin ligases involved in Notch-Delta signalling. Suppressor of Deltex/Itch is a negative regulator of Notch-Delta signalling and is able to ubiquinate Notch. Sel-10 is another negative regulator of Notch, promoting its ubiquination and degradation. Neuralised is a regulator of Notch-Delta signalling, which binds, monoubiquinates and promotes degradation of Delta. LNX promotes ubiquination and degradation of the Numb PTB domain protein, a regulator of Notch-Delta signalling.

Mind bomb is a ubiquitin ligase that is essential for efficient activation of notch signaling by delta. Dev. Cell. 4:2003;67-82 Positional cloning of a gene necessary for Notch-Delta signalling in zebrafish led to the identification of a gene encoding an E3 RING-finger ubiquitin ligase, termed 'Mind Bomb' (Mib). Biochemical and co-expression experiments in COS7 cells revealed that Mib binds several Delta homologues and promotes their ubiquitination and internalisation, and that they co-localise on a Rab9-labelled endocytic compartment. Interestingly the increased internalisation of Delta promotes Notch activation, suggesting that Delta internalisation might be required to make Delta an effective ligand.

This report gives another example of a receptor that requires the ubiquitin-proteasome system for lysosomal degradation. Instead of being sorted into multivesicular endosomes, the low-density lipoprotein receptor related protein is recycled back to the plasma membrane in the presence of proteasomal inhibitors.

Ubiquitination and proteasomal activity is required for transport of the EGF receptor to inner membranes of multivesicular bodies. J. Cell Biol. 156:2002;843-854 Epidermal growth factor (EGF) induces EGF receptor (EGFR) downregulation, whereas another EGFR-ligand, transforming growth factor α, does not. The EGFR is ubiquitinated upon stimulation with both ligands, but the ubiquitination is sustained when stimulating with EGF. EGF stimulation also leads to the recruitment of the ubiquitin ligase c-Cbl to EGFR-positive endosomes. Proteasome inhibitors are shown to inhibit the sorting of ubiquitinated EGFR into multivesicular endosomes.

The data indicate that there are at least two populations of internal vesicles, which contain the phospholipids phosphatidylcholine or lyso-bisphosphatidic acid, respectively.

Cell. 3:2002;283-289 The class E Vps proteins Vps22, Vps25 and Vps36 are shown to assemble into a 155 kDa protein complex, ESCRT-II. It acts downstream of the previously described ESCRT-I complex [24] and is transiently associated with endosomal membranes. Immunoprecipitation experiments indicate that components of ESCRT-II can interact with components of ESCRT-III, and subunits of ESCRT-III become more cytosolic in cells that lack ESCRT-II components. The authors suggest that ESCRT-II can initiate the formation of ESCRT-III on endosomal membranes.

Traffic. 3:2002;718-729 By studying HIV-infected macrophages using electron microscopy, the authors show that virus particles accumulate in multivesicular compartments which are enriched in MHC class II and CD63. The data suggest that virus might access the lumen of this compartment by budding from the limiting membrane, similar to the formation of internal vesicles in multivesicular endosomes.

Biol. 326:2003;493-502 This report shows that the V40 protein from Ebola virus can interact with human Nedd4 and Tsg101 in vitro. The WW domain 3 of Nedd4 is necessary and sufficient for binding to the PPXY motif of V40, whereas the UEV domain of Tsg101 is sufficient to bind the PTAP domain of the virus protein.
