    Abstract:
    BTB and CNC homology 1 (BACH1) represses the expression of genes involved in the metabolism of iron, heme and reactive oxygen species. While BACH1 is rapidly degraded when it is bound to heme, it remains unclear how BACH1 degradation is regulated under other conditions. We found that FBXO22, a ubiquitin ligase previously reported to promote BACH1 degradation, polyubiquitinated BACH1 only in the presence of heme in a highly purified reconstitution assay. In parallel to this regulatory mechanism, TANK binding kinase 1 (TBK1), a protein kinase that activates innate immune response and regulates iron metabolism via ferritinophagy, was found to promote BACH1 degradation when overexpressed in 293T cells. While TBK1 phosphorylated BACH1 at multiple serine and threonine residues, BACH1 degradation was observed with not only the wild-type TBK1 but also catalytically impaired TBK1. The BACH1 degradation in response to catalytically impaired TBK1 was not dependent on FBXO22 but involved both autophagy-lysosome and ubiquitin-proteasome pathways judging from its suppression by using inhibitors of lysosome and proteasome. Chemical inhibition of TBK1 in hepatoma Hepa1 cells showed that TBK1 was not required for the heme-induced BACH1 degradation. Its inhibition in Namalwa B lymphoma cells increased endogenous BACH1 protein. These results suggest that TBK1 promotes BACH1 degradation in parallel to the FBXO22- and heme-dependent pathway, placing BACH1 as a downstream effector of TBK1 in iron metabolism or innate immune response.
