“…The PB1 (Phox and Bem1 domain) domain present in both SQTM1 and NBR1 mediate their mutual interaction and oligomerization into helical filaments (Ciuffa et al, 2015) which then promote the aggregation of ubiquitylated species (Jakobi et al, 2020; Turco et al, 2021). In addition, mammalian SQSTM1 and NBR1 share a zinc-finger domain (ZZ) that can bind N-terminally arginylated proteins, lysine-48 (K48)- and K63-linked polyubiquitylated proteins, and other cargo (Cha-Molstad et al, 2015; Kwon et al, 2018; Wang et al, 2021), a ubiquitin-associated (UBA) domain with affinity for ubiquitin, and an ATG8-interacting motif (AIM) sequence that binds ATG8 (Seibenhener et al, 2004; Ichimura et al, 2008; Zientara-Rytter et al, 2011; Sun et al, 2022a). NBR1, but not SQSTM1, also contains a Four-Tryptophan (FW) domain, which at least in some fungal species recognizes cargo for selective autophagy.…”
