K27-linkage poly-ubiquitination plays important roles in DNA damage repair and autoimmunity. Identification of K27-linkage targeting deubiquitinases (DUBs) is essential for understanding their regulatory mechanisms. Here we report an aryl-azide-based photoaffinity diubiquitin (diUb) probe for profiling K27-linkage targeting DUBs. This probe shows high selectivity and sensitivity towards K27-linkage DUBs in vitro. It can also be used in cell lysate for identifying and probing K27-linkage targeting DUBs in real proteomes. Our work suggests that the photoaffinity-based strategy may provide a new useful approach for the construction of other isopeptide linkage targeting DUB probes.

Virus infection affects cellular proteostasis and provides an opportunity to study this cellular process under perturbation. The proteostasis network in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is composed of the calnexin cycle, and the two protein degradation pathways ER-associated protein degradation (ERAD) and ER-to-lysosome-associated degradation (ERLAD/ER-phagy/reticulophagy). Here we show that calnexin and calreticulin trigger Zaire Ebolavirus (EBOV) glycoprotein GP misfolding.
