Fic and non-Fic AMPylases: protein AMPylation in metazoans

Protein AMPylation refers to the covalent attachment of an AMP moiety to the amino acid side chains of target proteins using ATP as nucleotide donor. This process is catalysed by dedicated AMP transferases, called AMPylases. Since this initial discovery, several research groups have identified AMPyl...

description Protein AMPylation refers to the covalent attachment of an AMP moiety to the amino acid side chains of target proteins using ATP as nucleotide donor. This process is catalysed by dedicated AMP transferases, called AMPylases. Since this initial discovery, several research groups have identified AMPylation as a critical post-translational modification relevant to normal and pathological cell signalling in both bacteria and metazoans. Bacterial AMPylases are abundant enzymes that either regulate the function of endogenous bacterial proteins or are translocated into host cells to hijack host cell signalling processes. By contrast, only two classes of metazoan AMPylases have been identified so far: enzymes containing a conserved filamentation induced by cAMP (Fic) domain (Fic AMPylases), which primarily modify the ER-resident chaperone BiP, and SelO, a mitochondrial AMPylase involved in redox signalling. In this review, we compare and contrast bacterial and metazoan Fic and non-Fic AMPylases, and summarize recent technological and conceptual developments in the emerging field of AMPylation.
