Abstract

Abstract TRIM9 and TRIM67 are neuronally-enriched E3 ubiquitin. Both genes are required for neuronal morphological responses to the axon guidance cue netrin-1. For example, our previously published work demonstrated that the actin polymerase VASP and the netrin receptor DCC exhibit TRIM9 dependent ubiquitylation that is lost upon netrin stimulation. Deletion of either gene in the mouse results in subtle neuroanatomical anomalies yet overt deficits in spatial learning and memory. Despite their role in neuronal form and function, the identity of few TRIM9 or TRIM67 substrates are known. Here we performed ubiquitin remnant profiling approach in cultured wildtype and knockout murine embryonic cortical neurons to identify ubiquitylated peptides and proteins, with the ultimate goal of identifying substrates of TRIM9 and TRIM67 that exhibited reduced ubiquitylation in the absence of the ligase. This work reveals the ubiquitylome of developing cortical neurons.
