WB quantitation is shown.α-Synuclein was immunoblotted in WT and MPS-IIIA in both total and synaptosomal brain fractions at the indicated ages after sequential extraction with detergents with increased strength. Soluble (Sol.), lowly insoluble (L. Insol.), and highly insoluble (H. Insol.) forms correspond to the protein solubilized in Triton X-100, 10% SDS and 8 M urea, respectively.Co-immunofluorescence analysis of α-synuclein with SMI-32 in WT and MPS-IIIA hippocampal neurons (DIV14). α-Synuclein synaptic puncta present in a neurite tract of 10 μm is shown in a representative enlarged image. Quantification of α-synuclein synaptic puncta was calculated from 30 different enlarged images.Confocal analysis of α-synuclein (green) and LAMP1 (red) in WT and MPS-IIIA hippocampal neurons (DIV14). Enlarged merge images are also shown. Co-localization was quantified using the MCC (ImageJ) and displayed as percentage (MCC × 100) of α-synuclein co-localizing with LAMP1 (15 different images taken from 4 to 5 coverslips for each group).CSPα was immunoblotted in WT and MPS-IIIA total brain lysates at the indicated ages after sequential extraction with detergents with increased strength as in (B).Co-immunofluorescence analysis of CSPα and SMI-32 in DIV14 hippocampal neurons. CSPα synaptic puncta was quantified as in (C).CSPα protein levels were evaluated by immunoblot analysis in WT and MPS-IIIA hippocampal neurons (DIV14) at different times after cycloheximide treatment and expressed as percentage of remaining protein at T0 (100%). The proteasome was inhibited as indicated. WB quantification is shown.Palmitoylation-dependent shift in the molecular weight of CSPα was evaluated in WT and MPS-IIIA brain samples at the indicated ages by immunoblot CSPα in boiled samples prepared without exposure to sulfhydryl agents (β-mercaptoethanol or dithiothreitol).The protein levels of RPN10 (the regulatory subunit of 26S proteasome) and ubiquitinated proteins formed by Lys48 (K48) residue linkage (involved in protein degradation via the proteasome) were evaluated in WT and MPS-IIIA brain samples at the indicated ages by WB analysis. WB quantitation is shown.Proteasome activity was evaluated by measuring the chymotrypsin-like activity in WT and MPS-IIIA mouse brain samples at different ages. Proteasome activity was expressed as percentage of WT activity.Data information : Data are means ± s.e.m.; N = 3 (biological triplicate) in WB quantitations. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.001, Student's t-test : MPS-IIIA at each age vs. WT (A, I, J); MPS-IIIA vs. WT (C, D, F); either WT or MPS-IIIA + prot. inhib.

Biological function summary
The ubiquitin system plays a critical role in regulating protein turnover and quality control within cells. It is part of a larger complex known as the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) which is responsible for degrading proteins that need to be turned over. This process is essential for cell cycle control response to oxidative stress and DNA repair. Ubiquitin's role in tagging proteins for degradation or signaling allows cells to respond quickly to changes in their environment and maintain balance.
Pathways
Ubiquitin functions in several important biological pathways including the Wnt and NF-kB pathways. In the Wnt signaling pathway ubiquitination modulates the stability of key components thereby affecting the pathway's overall activity. In the NF-kB signaling pathway ubiquitin labels inhibitor proteins for degradation which releases and activates NF-kB. These pathways highlight ubiquitin's interaction with proteins such as beta-catenin in Wnt and IkB in NF-kB illustrating how it regulates diverse cellular processes.
