Target description

Ubiquitin-like protein ISG15 (UniProt: Q64339; also known as Interferon-induced 15 kDa protein, Interferon-induced 17 kDa protein, IP17, Ubiquitin cross-reactive protein) is encoded by the Isg15 (also known as G1p2, Ucrp) gene (Gene ID: 100038882) in murine species. ISG15 is a disulfide-linked homodimeric, interferon-induced protein that plays a key role in host antiviral response. It is reported to exist in three distinct states: free form, released into the extracellular space, and as conjugated to target proteins. It contains two ubiquitin-like domains (aa 2-76 and 77-155) that are essential for its efficient conjugation to cellular proteins. Ubiquitin-like 2 domain is essential for the first two steps allowing the linking of ISG15 to the E1 and E2 enzymes while Ubiquitin-like 1 domain is essential for the E3-mediated transfer of ISG15 from the E2 to the lysine residues of the target protein. It also requires its C-terminal LRLRGG motif to form intracellular conjugates. ISG15 plays key role in the innate immune response to viral infection either via its conjugation to a target protein (ISGylation) or via its action as a free or unconjugated protein. ISGlylation is reported to involves a cascade of enzymatic reactions involving E1, E2, and E3 enzymes that catalyze the conjugation of ISG15 to a lysine residue in the target protein. Some of the target proteins of ISG15 include JAK1, ERK1, ERK2, STAT5A, TRIM25, and globin. The secreted form is also known to induce natural killer cell proliferation, act as a chemotactic factor for neutrophils, and act as a IFN -inducing cytokine. The secreted form acts through the integrin ITGAL/ITGB2 receptor to initiate activation of SRC family tyrosine kinases including LYN, HCK and FGR that leads to secretion of IFN and IL-10. S-nitrosylation of ISG15 can decrease its dimerization, thereby increasing the availability as well as the solubility of monomeric ISG15 for its conjugation to cellular proteins.
