Sequestosome 1 (SQSTM1, p62) is a ubiquitin binding protein involved in cell signaling, oxidative stress, and autophagy (1-4).
It was first identified as a protein that binds to the SH2 domain of p56Lck (5), and independently found to interact with PKCzeta (6,7).
SQSTM1 was subsequently found to interact with ubiquitin, providing a scaffold for several signaling proteins and triggering degradation of proteins through the proteasome or lysosome (8).
Interaction between SQSTM1 and TRAF6 leads to the K63-linked polyubiquitination of TRAF6 and subsequent activation of the NF-kB pathway (9).
Protein aggregates formed by SQSTM1 can be degraded by the autophagosome (4,10,11).
SQSTM1 binds autophagosomal membrane protein LC3/Atg8, bringing SQSTM1-containing protein aggregates to the autophagosome (12).
Lysosomal degradation of autophagosomes leads to a decrease in SQSTM1 levels during autophagy; conversely, autophagy inhibitors stabilize SQSTM1 levels.
Studies have demonstrated a link between SQSTM1 and oxidative stress.
SQSTM1 interacts with KEAP1, which is a cytoplasmic inhibitor of NRF2, a key transcription factor involved in cellular responses to oxidative stress (3).
Thus, accumulation of SQSTM1 can lead to an increase in NRF2 activity.
