Transcription factor EB (TFEB) is a key transcription factor that orchestrates the cellular response to stress. Dysregulation of TFEB is associated with a range of human diseases, and understanding the regulatory mechanisms of TFEB is crucial for identifying potential drug targets. In this study, we used Caenorhabditis elegans to screen for E3 ubiquitin ligases regulating the activity of TFEB's homolog, HLH-30, upon pathogenic infection. We identified WWP-1 as a regulator of HLH-30-dependent immune response controlling HLH-30 stability to mediate host defense in vivo. We found that HLH-30 interacts with WWP-1, supporting a model of WWP-1 directly regulating HLH-30. Furthermore, we found that WWP-1's human homolog WWP2 binds TFEB, directly induces TFEB ubiquitination and stabilizes TFEB. Finally, we found that WWP2 is required for TFEB-dependent host response in human monocytes-derived macrophages upon infection. Overall, our work has identified an evolutionarily conserved regulation of TFEB by WWP2 and highlighted its role in modulating stress response.

Non-profit plasmid repository dedicated to helping scientists around the world share high-quality plasmids. Facilitates archiving and distributing DNA-based research reagents and associated data to scientists worldwide. Repository contains over 65,000 plasmids, including special collections on CRISPR, fluorescent proteins, and ready-to-use viral preparations. There is no cost for scientists to deposit plasmids, which saves time and money associated with shipping plasmids themselves. All plasmids are fully sequenced for validation and sequencing data is openly available. We handle the appropriate Material Transfer Agreements (MTA) with institutions, facilitating open exchange and offering intellectual property and liability protection for depositing scientists. Furthermore, we curate free educational resources for the scientific community including a blog, eBooks, video protocols, and detailed molecular biology resources.
