Summary

MYLIP (myosin regulatory light chain interacting protein, HGNC:21155) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 6p22.3, encoding E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase MYLIP (Q8WY64). E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that mediates ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of myosin regulatory light chain (MRLC), LDLR, VLDLR and LRP8.

The ERM protein family members ezrin, radixin, and moesin are cytoskeletal effector proteins linking actin to membrane-bound proteins at the cell surface. Myosin regulatory light chain interacting protein (MYLIP) is a novel ERM-like protein that interacts with myosin regulatory light chain and inhibits neurite outgrowth.

All UniProt accessions (2): Q8WY64, Q5TIA5

UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →

Function. E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase that mediates ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of myosin regulatory light chain (MRLC), LDLR, VLDLR and LRP8. Activity depends on E2 enzymes of the UBE2D family. Proteasomal degradation of MRLC leads to inhibit neurite outgrowth in presence of NGF by counteracting the stabilization of MRLC by saposin-like protein (CNPY2/MSAP) and reducing CNPY2-stimulated neurite outgrowth. Acts as a sterol-dependent inhibitor of cellular cholesterol uptake by mediating ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of LDLR.

Subunit / interactions. Homodimer. Interacts with the E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme, UBE2D1 (via RING-type zinc finger). Interacts with myosin regulatory light chain (MRLC) and TMEM4.

Subcellular location. Cytoplasm. Cell membrane.

Tissue specificity. Ubiquitously expressed.

Post-translational modifications. Autoubiquitinated.

Activity regulation. Can bind 1 iron ion per dimer. Iron binding seems to decrease LDLR degradation activity.

Domain organisation. The RING domain mediates ubiquitination and the neurite outgrowth inhibitory activity. The FERM domain binds phospholipids and mediates lipoprotein receptors recognition at the plasma membrane through their cytoplasmic tails. The RING-type zinc finger mediates the interaction with UBE2D E2 enzymes.

Induction. Expression is directly activated by NR1H2 and NR1H3. Expression is not dependent of the sterol-response element-binding proteins (SREBPs). Expression is indirectly induced by LDL.

Pathway. Protein modification; protein ubiquitination.
