motifs/domains
  • N-terminal SKICH domain of unknown structure (AA 1–127),
  • an extended central coiled coil domain containing a leucine zipper motif (AA 140–420)
  • a C2H2-type zinc finger structure and this zinc finger in complex with mono-ubiquitin uncovers a unique zinc finger-binding mode for ubiquitin
  • a noncanonical LIR motif providing specificity for MAP1LC3C
  • a LIM-like C terminal domain
  • myosin tail
  • mutiple phosphorylation sites
  • a C-terminal ubiquitin-binding Zn finger domain (ZnF, AA 421–446)
  • HOMOLOGY
    intraspecies paralog to MAVS

  • expressed in the nuclear domain (ND) 10 (POD (PML) promyelocytic oncogenic domain or Kr bodies
  • with TAX1BP1 and myosin VI are present at the trans side of the Golgi complex, and on vesicles in the perinuclear region (Morriswood 2007)
  • basic FUNCTION
  • polyubiquitin binding protein involved in NF-kappaB signaling (Fenner 2009)
  • SQSTM1 and CALCOCO2 act cooperatively to drive efficient antibacterial autophagy by targeting the protein complexes they coordinate to distinct micro-domains associated with bacteria
  • plays a role as an autophagic receptor for phosphorylated tau facilitating its clearance via autophagy
  • autophagy receptor CALCOCO2 plays a dual function during xenophagy first by targeting bacteria to nascent autophagosomes and then by promoting autophagosome maturation in order to destroy bacteria
  • functions as a bridging adaptor and plays an essential role in the selective autophagic degradation of invading pathogens by specifically recognizing ubiquitin-coated intracellular pathogens and subsequently targeting them to the autophagic machinery

  • interacting with HCAP1
  • myosin VI binding partner (Morriswood 2007)
  • by recruiting CALCOCO2, LGALS8 activates antibacterial autophagy
  • is a key autophagy receptor for phosphorylated MAPT in brain
  • TBK1 kinase addiction in lung cancer cells is mediated via autophagy of TAX1BP1/CALCOCO2 and non-canonical NFKB1 signalling
  • considerable interaction between TRIM31 and CALCOCO2
  • RAB35 accumulates on bacteria-containing endosomes, and RAB35 directly binds and recruits CALCOCO2 to internalized bacteria
