Phosphorylation of OPTN by TBK1 enhances its binding to Ub chains and promotes selective autophagy of damaged mitochondria
Open accessAbstract
Significance: Selective autophagy of damaged mitochondria (mitophagy) requires protein kinases PINK1 and TBK1, ubiquitin ligase Parkin, and autophagy receptors such as OPTN, driving ubiquitin-labeled mitochondria into autophagosomes. Because all proteins have been genetically linked to either Parkinson’s disease (PINK1 and Parkin) or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal lobar degeneration (TBK1 and OPTN), it is of great interest to understand their physiological functions. By utilizing quantitative proteomics we show that TBK1 phosphorylates four receptors on several autophagy-relevant sites. Constitutive interaction of TBK1 with OPTN and the ability of OPTN to bind to ubiquitin chains are essential for TBK1 recruitment and activation on mitochondria. TBK1-mediated phosphorylation of OPTN creates a signal amplification loop through combining recruitment and retention of OPTN/TBK1 on ubiquitinated mitochondria.

“Through its phosphorylation of the autophagy receptors OPTN, SQSTM1, and CALCOCO2/NDP52 (calcium binding and coiled-coil domain 2) [58,59,194], TBK1 regulates several aspects of autophagy, including macroautophagy, xenophagy and mitophagy [59,90,148,194–196].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
