Figures

Genetic evidence of a role for Ser57 phosphorylation in the cellular response to stress.
Ubiquitin variants were shuffled into the SUB280 yeast background (as described in the Materials and Methods) to generate strains that express exclusively wildtype, S57A, or S57D ubiquitin. (A) Yeast strains expressing the indicated ubiquitin variants (wildtype, S57A or S57D) were plated in serial dilutions onto the indicated synthetic dextrose medium (SDM) agar plates. (B) Serial dilutions of yeast cells were plated onto YPD agar plates and incubated at 26°C, 37°C, or 39°C for 18 hr and shifted back to 26°C for recovery. (C) Fluorescence microscopy and (D) quantification of cells stained with propidium iodide (PI) after incubation at 65°C for 5 min. Dead cells are stained with PI. Results are means (n = 3) of % PI-positive cells ± SD (error bars). Double asterisk (**) indicates p value < 0.005 using a Student’s t-test. (E) With a starting OD600 of 0.1, cells were grown in liquid culture (-URA synthetic medium) at 39°C and OD600 was measured at different time points. Data was collected from four biological replicate experiments (n=4) and the mean OD600 ± SD (error bars) was calculated for each time point. Double asterisk (**) indicates p value < 0.005 using a Student’s t-test. For all statistical analysis associated with Figure 1, p values are reported in the Figure 1—source data 1.

Analysis of ubiquitin phosphorylation in Δvhs1Δsks1 mutants. Yeast cells expressing endogenous FLAG-ubiquitin (JMY1312 [SEY6210 background] parent cells) were cultured in heavy (H; wildtype cells) or light (L, isogenic Δvhs1Δsks1 deletion) SILAC media to the mid-log phase. In Experiment #1, cells were untreated, and in Experiment #2 cells were treated with 1 mM H2O2 for 30 min before harvesting cells. Following cell lysis and overnight digestion of lysates with trypsin, phospho-peptides were enriched using IMAC chromatography (see Materials and methods) and analyzed by mass spectrometry. Phosphorylated ubiquitin peptides resolved in these experiments are indicated and the values presented in the table represent the H:L SILAC ratio, which has been normalized to the total ubiquitin H:L ratio for each experiment and log-transformed (log2). ‘n.d.’ for Ser19 in Experiment #1 indicates that this peptide was identified but could not be quantified in this experiment due to poor quality of chromatographic data.

Corresponds to Figure 2—figure supplement 1.
Yeast cells (NHY318 background) expressing either wildtype or S57D ubiquitin were cultured in heavy (H; expressing wildtype ubiquitin) or light (L, expressing S57D ubiquitin) SILAC media to the mid-log phase and treated with 1 mM H2O2 for 30 min before harvesting cells. Following cell lysis and digestion of lysates with trypsin for 24 hr, ubiquitin-remnant peptides were enriched (see Materials and methods) and analyzed by mass spectrometry. Three biological replicate experiments were analyzed. Since the peptide corresponding to K63-linked poly-ubiquitin also harbors the residue mutated in phosphomimetic (S57D) ubiquitin, K63 linkages are a blind spot for SILAC measurements in these experiments. ‘n.d.’ indicates not detected.

Corresponds to Figure 3A and Figure 3—figure supplement 2.
For yeast Ser57 ubiquitin kinases, we analyzed consensus phosphorylation motifs as determined from a previous study based on in vitro activity analysis on peptide libraries (Mok et al., 2010). Values in parentheses are the quantified selectivity values, based on site preference of in vitro activity. Only amino acids selected at a position with a value >2 are shown.
