Dataset Summary
TitleSystematic discovery of UFM1 receptors reveals a regulatory module in DNA repair directing non-homologous end-joining
DescriptionAs the most recently identified UBL, UFM1 is garnering increasing attention for its roles beyond its canonical functions at the endoplasmic reticulum. To address the challenge of defining UFM1 substrate-receptor relationships, we develop a fully functional, photo-crosslinkable UFM1 probe for receptor screening. The approach identifies a broad spectrum of UFM1-interacting proteins, spanning biological processes known to be regulated by UFM1 as well as unknown associations. Notably, several core NHEJ components ranked prominently amongst the candidates. Using additional biochemical and biophysical techniques, including crosslinking mass spectrometry (CX-MS), we validate and characterise non-canonical UFM1-binding regions on several NHEJ proteins, including XRCC4. In addition, using recombinant reagents, we have identified potential UFMylation sites of Ku70 and Ku80 through identification of VG-K remnant peptides following trypsin digestion.
