Abstract

Ubiquitin sensors: vital role for ABIN-1 Oshima et al. this week show that ABIN-1 — a protein that interacts with the ubiquitin-editing enzyme A20 and is thought to negatively influence NF-κB signalling — is essential for life; without it, mice die during embryogenesis with fetal liver apoptosis and anaemia. However, this phenomenon appears unrelated to ABIN-1's role in NF-κB signalling. The authors show that ABIN-1 is ubiquitinated and as such binds to and interferes with components of the TNF-induced signalling complex, the so-called DISC. This prevents programmed cell death and allows proper development. This adds to the emerging role for non-degrading ubiquitin modifications in life and death cell-fate decisions.
