SUMMARY PARAGRAPH for BRO1

Bro1p is a cytoplasmic class E vacuolar protein sorting (VPS) factor that associates with endosomal compartments and functions in the multivesicular body (MVB) pathway (4). The endosomal association of Bro1p is specifically dependent on Snf7p, whereas its dissociation from endosomes requires Vps4p, a class E VPS ATPase that regulates the endosomal dissociation of ESCRT-III, a complex of four class E VPS proteins (Did4p, Vps20p, Vps24p and Snf7p) that oligomerize at the endosomal membrane (4). Bro1p coordinates the timing and location of deubiquitination in the multivesicular body pathway by recruiting Doa4p, the ubiquitin thiolesterase required for the removal of ubiquitin from MVB cargoes, to endosomes. Loss of Bro1p is suppressed by the overexpression of DOA4, which restores cargo protein deubiquitination and sorting via the MVB pathway and reverses the abnormal endosomal morphology typical of bro1 mutant cells, resulting in the restoration of multivesicular endosomes (5).
