Eukaryotic N-degron pathways are proteolytic systems whose uni- fying feature is their ability to recognize proteins containing N -terminal (Nt) degradation signals called N-degrons, and to target these proteins for degradation by the 26S proteasome or auto- phagy. GID4, a subunit of the GID ubiquitin ligase, is the main rec- ognition component of the proline (Pro)/N-degron pathway. GID4 targets proteins through their Nt-Pro residue or a Pro at position 2, in the presence of specific downstream sequence motifs. Here we show that human GID4 can also recognize hydrophobic Nt-residues other than Pro. One example is the sequence Nt-IGLW, bearing Nt-Ile. Nt-IGLW binds to wild -type human GID4 with a K d of 16 mu M, whereas the otherwise identical Nt-Pro -bearing sequence PGLW binds to GID4 more tightly, with a K d of 1.9 mu M. Despite this differ- ence in affinities of GID4 for Nt-IGLW vs. Nt-PGLW, we found that the GID4-mediated Pro/N-degron pathway of the yeast Saccharo- myces cerevisiae can target an Nt-IGLW -bearing protein for rapid degradation. We solved crystal structures of human GID4 bound to a peptide bearing Nt-Ile or Nt-Val. We also altered specific residues of human GID4 and measured the affinities of resulting mutant GID4s for Nt-IGLW and Nt-PGLW, thereby determining relative con- tributions of specific GID4 residues to the GID4-mediated recogni- tion of Nt-Pro vs. Nt-residues other than Pro. These and related results advance the understanding of targeting by the Pro/N-degron pathway and greatly expand the substrate recognition range of the GID ubiquitin ligase in both human and yeast cells.
