Regulation of COPI trafficking by ubiquitination. (A) In yeast, ubiquitination of the SNARE Snc1 allows for coatomer binding through β′- and α-COP, leading to recycling to the plasma membrane. (B) Androgen receptor signaling by dihydrotestosterone has been found to activate the ubiquitin ligase PIRH2, which targets ε-COP for proteasomal degradation. Single arrows indicate functional interaction. Double-headed arrows indicate translocation. AR, androgen receptor; DHT, dihydrotestosterone; PIRH2, p53-induced RING-H2 protein; PM, plasma membrane; Snc1, synaptobrevin homolog 1; Ub, ubiquitination.
