Description
The endolysosomal system fulfills a wide variety of cellular functions, many of which are modulated through interactions with other organelles. In particular, the ER exerts spatiotemporal constraints on the organization and motility of endosomes and lysosomes. We have recently described the ER transmembrane E3 ubiquitin ligase RNF26 to control perinuclear positioning and transport dynamics of the endolysosomal vesicular network. We now report that the ubiquitin conjugating enzyme UBE2J1, also anchored in the ER membrane, collaborates with RNF26 in this context, and that the cellular activity of this E2/E3 pair, localized in a perinuclear ER subdomain, is underpinned by transmembrane interactions. Through modification of its substrate SQSTM1/p62, the ER-embedded UBE2J1/RNF26 ubiquitylation complex recruits endosomal adaptors to immobilize their cognate vesicles in the perinuclear region. The resulting spatiotemporal compartmentalization of the endolysosomal system between the perinuclear vesicle cloud and the cell periphery facilitates timely downregulation of endocytosed cargoes, such as EGFR.
