PDB is a metabolic bone disease affecting the axial skeleton and characterized by focal areas of increased and disorganized bone turn-over due to activated osteoclasts. Manifestations of the disease include bone pain, deformity, pathological fractures, deafness, neurological complications and increased risk of osteosarcoma. PDB is a chronic disease affecting 2 to 3% of the population above the age of 40 years. Note=In a cell model for Huntington disease (HD), appears to form a shell surrounding aggregates of mutant HTT that may protect cells from apoptosis, possibly by recruiting autophagosomal components to the polyubiquitinylated protein aggregates. Function [SQSTM_HUMAN] Required both for the formation and autophagic degradation of polyubiquitin-containing bodies, called ALIS (aggresome-like induced structures). Links ALIS to the autophagic machinery via direct interaction with MAP1 LC3 family members. May regulate the activation of NFKB1 by TNF-alpha, nerve growth factor (NGF) and interleukin-1. May play a role in titin/TTN downstream signaling in muscle cells. May regulate signaling cascades through ubiquitination. Adapter that mediates the interaction between TRAF6 and CYLD (By similarity). May be involved in cell differentiation, apoptosis, immune response and regulation of K(+) channels.

Publication Abstract from PubMed The ubiquitin (Ub)-binding p62 scaffold protein (encoded by the SQSTM1 gene) regulates a diverse range of signalling pathways leading to activation of the nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappaB) family of transcription factors and is an important regulator of macroautophagy. Mutations within the gene encoding p62 are commonly found in patients with Paget's disease of bone and largely cluster within the C-terminal ubiquitin-associated (UBA) domain, impairing its ability to bind Ub, resulting in dysregulated NF-kappaB signalling. However, precisely how Ub-binding is regulated at the molecular level is unclear. NMR relaxation dispersion experiments, coupled with concentration-dependent NMR, CD, isothermal titration calorimetry and fluorescence kinetic measurements, reveal that the p62 UBA domain forms a highly stable dimer (K(dim) approximately 4-12 microM at 298 K). NMR analysis shows that the dimer interface partially occludes the Ub-binding surface, particularly at the C-terminus of helix 3, making UBA dimerisation and Ub-binding mutually exclusive processes. Somewhat unusually, the monomeric UBA appears to be the biologically active form and the dimer appears to be the inactive one. Engineered point mutations in loop 1 (E409K and G410K) are shown to destabilise the dimer interface, lead to a higher proportion of the bound monomer and, in NF-kappaB luciferase reporter assays, are associated with reduced NF-kappaB activity compared with wt-p62. Dimerisation of the UBA domain of p62 inhibits ubiquitin binding and regulates NF-kappaB signalling.,Long J, Garner TP, Pandya MJ, Craven CJ, Chen P, Shaw B, Williamson MP, Layfield R, Searle MS J Mol Biol. 2010 Feb 12;396(1):178-94.
