OTULIN deficiency causes auto-inflammatory syndrome

Abstract: Ubiquitin chains assembled via the N-terminal methionine (Met1 or linear ubiquitin), conjugated by the linear ubiquitin chain assembly complex (LUBAC), participate in NF-κΒ-dependent inflammatory signaling and immune responses. A recent report in Cell finds that OTU-LIN, a deubiquitinase that selectively cleaves Met1-linked ubiquitin chains, is essential for restraining inflammation in vivo.Ubiquitin signaling controls activation of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) and inflammatory responses upon engagement of patter… Show more

“…Although little is known about FAM105A function, GWAS of allergic diseases implicates a credible missense risk variant in this gene (Ferreira et al, 2017). A neighboring paralogue gene, Otulin ( FAM105B ), encodes a deubiquitinase with an essential role in immune regulation (Damgaard et al, 2016; Fiil and Gyrd-Hansen, 2016) (Figure S6D). These results suggest an important role for FAM105A in mediating adenosine immunosuppressive signals in T cells.…”

“…OTULIN specifically binds to Met l-Ub and LUBAC and hydrolyzes the Met l-Ub chain bound to the substrate specifically (not acting on the nonubiquitinated protein), allowing ubiquitination and deubiquitination of the substrate to maintain homeostasis for participation in a variety of biological functions in the organism. Research has shown that homozygous mutations in the human OTULIN gene can lead to potentially lethal autoinflammatory states, known as OTULIN-related autoimmune syndrome (ORAS) (43).…”

“…OTULIN is a DUB that structurally solely constitutes the OTU domain with an N-terminal PUB-interacting motif, which is selective for binding methionine1-linked Ub chains in NF-κB transmitters [ 143 , 147 ]. Its systematic deficiency in expression causes OTULIN-related autoinflammatory syndrome (ORAS), which results in steatosis-alike liver inflammation [ 148 ]. However, not much is known about OTULIN and ORAS, as this protein functionality is still poorly understood and requires further investigations.…”
