Gene Description

CHMP6 encodes the human Vps20 ortholog, a myristoylated ESCRT-III component that acts at endosomal membranes as an acceptor/nucleator for ESCRT-II and helps recruit CHMP4-family ESCRT-III subunits. Its best-supported cellular role is endolysosomal membrane-cargo quality control: MVB assembly and sorting of ubiquitinated/endocytosed cargo, delivery toward lysosomal degradation, and VPS4-mediated ESCRT-III remodeling through its internal MIM2 motif. Broader ESCRT functions in viral budding, cytokinesis, nuclear-envelope sealing, plasma-membrane repair, and autophagy are biologically plausible pathway contexts, but the CHMP6-specific literature makes endosomal MVB sorting the core function.

Core Functions

CHMP6 is a myristoylated Vps20/ESCRT-III component that links ESCRT-II to ESCRT-III on endosomal membranes. By binding ESCRT-II, CHMP4-family ESCRT-III subunits, and VPS4 through its MIM2 element, CHMP6 supports ESCRT-III assembly/remodeling, MVB formation and sorting of ubiquitinated/endocytosed membrane cargo, and downstream late-endosome-to-lysosome degradation of cargo such as EGFR and ferroportin.

Suggested Questions for Experts

Q: Can endogenous CHMP6 depletion/rescue cleanly separate its ESCRT-II acceptor/nucleator role from later VPS4-mediated ESCRT-III recycling during MVB sorting?

Q: Should CHMP6 viral-budding annotations be removed or generalized to pathway-level ESCRT context given CHMP6-specific depletion data showing no reduction in HIV-1 release?

Q: Which autophagy and nuclear-envelope annotations are directly CHMP6-specific rather than inherited from broad ESCRT-III complex biology?

Suggested Experiments

Experiment: Rescue CHMP6-depleted cells with wild-type, non-myristoylated G2A, ESCRT-II-binding-defective, CHMP4-binding-defective, and MIM2 VPS4-binding-defective CHMP6 while measuring EGFR and ferroportin degradation, MVB ILV cargo incorporation, and ESCRT-III/VPS4 residence times.

Hypothesis: CHMP6-dependent cargo degradation will require membrane association, ESCRT-II/CHMP4 handoff, and VPS4 MIM2-mediated remodeling, with separable effects on initial MVB sorting and later ESCRT-III turnover.

Experiment: Compare acute CHMP6, CHMP4, and VPS4 perturbations in HIV-1 budding, MVB cargo degradation, and plasma membrane repair assays using matched depletion/rescue conditions.

Hypothesis: CHMP6 will be essential or strongly limiting for ESCRT-II-dependent endosomal cargo sorting but less directly required for HIV budding and other ESCRT pathway outputs that can bypass ESCRT-II/CHMP6.

Experiment: Use endogenous tagging and proximity labeling to define when CHMP6 is recruited during starvation autophagy, amphisome formation, and nuclear-envelope repair relative to CHMP7, CHMP4, IST1, and VPS4.

Hypothesis: CHMP6 recruitment in these contexts will be secondary or context-dependent compared with its constitutive role in endosomal ESCRT-II-to-ESCRT-III handoff.

Review focus

CHMP6 is the human Vps20 ortholog and a core ESCRT-III pathway component. For the proteostasis network review, its most defensible core role is not a generic "protein binding" or broad ESCRT pleiotropy label, but ESCRT-II-to-ESCRT-III handoff on endosomal membranes, MVB cargo sorting, and VPS4-coupled ESCRT-III remodeling needed for lysosomal degradation of membrane cargo.

Direct evidence

  • CHMP6 is a myristoylated ESCRT-III protein that directly links ESCRT-II to ESCRT-III. Katoh et al. identify it as "a human orthologue of yeast Vps20" and report direct interactions with CHMP4b and EAP20/VPS25; the paper concludes that "CHMP6 acts as an acceptor for ESCRT-II on endosomal membranes and regulates cargo sorting" PMID:15511219.
  • The same work supports membrane/endosome/MVB localization. Overexpressed CHMP6-GFP localized to punctate cytoplasmic/perinuclear structures, accumulated LBPA in the CHMP6-positive area, and the authors concluded that "membrane-bound CHMP6-GFP colocalized to endosome-like organelles, including MVBs" PMID:15511219. The dominant-negative phenotype caused accumulation of ubiquitinated proteins and endocytosed EGF PMID:15511219.
  • ESCRT-II depletion work supports CHMP6 in EGFR lysosomal targeting/downregulation. EAP20 bound the N-terminal half of CHMP6/ESCRT-III, and depletion of EAP20/ESCRT-II and CHMP6/ESCRT-III "inhibited lysosomal targeting and downregulation of the epidermal growth factor receptor" PMID:16973552.
  • VPS4 recognition of CHMP6 is mediated by a type-2 MIT-interacting motif (MIM2). The VPS4A MIT-CHMP6 MIM2 structure and mutagenesis show that the CHMP6 170-181 region recruits VPS4; mutations blocking VPS4 MIT-MIM2 binding also block ferroportin downregulation, which supports CHMP6 in cargo delivery through MVB sorting to lysosomal degradation PMID:18606141.
  • CHMP6 has a conserved ESCRT-III autoinhibited/open behavior. Comparative analysis of core ESCRT-III proteins including hVps20/CHMP6 showed that C-terminal truncation unmasks endosomal membrane association and polymerization, causing ubiquitinated cargo accumulation on enlarged endosomes PMID:17547705.
  • UniProt summarizes the same core mechanism: CHMP6 is a probable ESCRT-III component involved in MVB formation and ubiquitinated cargo sorting, and "probably serves as an acceptor for the ESCRT-II complex on endosomal membranes" [UniProt:Q96FZ7 "probably serves as an acceptor for the ESCRT-II complex on endosomal membranes"].

Annotation decisions

  • Accept as core: ESCRT III complex, ESCRT III complex assembly, endosome/late endosome/MVB membrane localization, MVB assembly, MVB sorting pathway, ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process via MVB sorting, late endosome to lysosome transport, membrane fission, negative regulation of EGFR activity as a direct cargo-degradation consequence, and protein-containing complex binding where it reflects ESCRT-II/ESCRT-III handoff rather than generic binding.
  • Modify broad transport terms such as vacuolar transport, late endosome-to-vacuole transport via MVB sorting, vesicle fusion with vacuole, multivesicular body-lysosome fusion, and regulation of protein catabolic process to the more specific MVB sorting / late endosome to lysosome transport / ubiquitin-dependent MVB catabolism terms.
  • Mark generic protein binding as over-annotated. The interactions are real, but GO:0005515 erases the meaningful ESCRT-II, CHMP4, and VPS4 context.
  • Treat viral budding as over-annotated for CHMP6. Broad ESCRT papers and dominant-negative constructs connect ESCRT-III integrity to budding, but CHMP6-specific depletion did not reduce HIV-1 release/infectivity PMID:16973552, and another study explicitly states that "Several ESCRT functions, including HIV budding, are insensitive to CHMP6 depletion" PMID:18606141.
  • Keep nuclear envelope sealing/reassembly, nuclear pore, midbody abscission, kinetochore/microtubule, plasma membrane repair, autophagy/macroautophagy/autophagosome/amphisome/lysosomal membrane, cytosol, and extracellular exosome annotations as non-core or over-extended ESCRT family contexts unless the annotation has direct CHMP6-specific evidence. These processes are PN-relevant as ESCRT outputs, but they do not define CHMP6's core proteostasis function as well as endosomal cargo sorting and ESCRT-III assembly/recycling do.
  • The negated exosome secretion annotation should be retained as a supported NOT annotation rather than converted into a positive functional claim; the source paper is about syntenin-ALIX exosome biogenesis and does not make CHMP6 a positive regulator of exosome secretion.

Literature access notes

  • A fetch attempt for PMID:14583093 hit an HTTP 429 rate limit, so I did not use that paper as evidence in the review.

Description cleanup note

The YAML description field was revised to keep it as a standalone biological summary. Project-specific curation framing moved here instead.

  • Moved out of the YAML description: the prior wording framed CHMP6's endolysosomal cargo-quality-control role as its best-supported Proteostasis Network role.

AIGR Review Snapshot

  • Description: CHMP6 encodes the human Vps20 ortholog, a myristoylated ESCRT-III component that acts at endosomal membranes as an acceptor/nucleator for ESCRT-II and helps recruit CHMP4-family ESCRT-III subunits. Its best-supported cellular role is endolysosomal membrane-cargo quality control: MVB assembly and sorting of ubiquitinated/endocytosed cargo, delivery toward lysosomal degradation, and VPS4-mediated ESCRT-III remodeling through its internal MIM2 motif. Broader ESCRT functions in viral budding, cytokinesis, nuclear-envelope sealing, plasma-membrane repair, and autophagy are biologically plausible pathway contexts, but the CHMP6-specific literature makes endosomal MVB sorting the core function.

PN Consistency Summary

  • Consistency: Consistent. The review identifies CHMP6 as the human Vps20 ortholog — the myristoylated ESCRT-II→ESCRT-III nucleator/acceptor (bridges ESCRT-II to CHMP4 polymerization), which is mechanistically upstream of sealing rather than the sealing effector itself. PN's generic component placement and the review's nucleator framing agree; autophagy entries (GO:0097352 IEA, GO:0016236 TAS PMID:20588296) are KEEP_AS_NON_CORE. No contradiction.
  • PN story / NEW pressure: PN projects GO:0000045 autophagosome assembly (verified real). CHMP6 support is family/role-inheritance, not a CHMP6-specific closure assay; the review explicitly states "cached evidence does not make CHMP6-specific autophagosome maturation the core function" and raises a suggested_question on this. A gene-specific GO:0000045 would over-reach. PN over-reaches for CHMP6 — already captured at non-core altitude; do not ADD.
  • Evidence alignment: Divergent. PN cites only the Cells "Key Regulators of Autophagosome Closure" review. Review cites primary literature (PMID:15511219 CHMP6/ESCRT-II acceptor, PMID:17984323, PMID:20588296, PMID:36107470 [verified]). No shared specific citations.
  • Verdict: Consistent; review correctly distinguishes CHMP6's nucleator role from generic sealing and resists the autophagy projection. Recommended edits: none.

      status=mapped scope=ok_for_propagation_to_go GO=[GO:0000815 ESCRT III complex]
      rationale: This PN type is a structural component class for ESCRT-III factors used in autophagophore sealing. The matching GO cellular-component term is ESCRT III complex, which is more precise than the broader late-fusion process mapping.
    • [group] Autophagy-Lysosome Pathway|Autophagosome closure maturation and lysosome fusion|Sealing of autophagophore membrane
      status=mapped scope=ok_for_propagation_to_go GO=[GO:0000045 autophagosome assembly]
      rationale: This group captures autophagophore closure/sealing, a late step in autophagosome assembly. Autophagosome assembly is the safer process target than autophagosome-lysosome fusion.
    • [class] Autophagy-Lysosome Pathway|Autophagosome closure maturation and lysosome fusion
      status=context_only scope=too_broad_to_propagate GO=[GO:0016236 macroautophagy]
      rationale: This class is a late macroautophagy context, but the subtree mixes docking, fusion, localization, membrane-composition, and unknown late-stage roles. The class-level relation is useful for display while propagation is restricted to narrower mechanism nodes.
    • [branch] Autophagy-Lysosome Pathway
      status=no_mapping scope= GO=[]
      rationale: Reviewed as the top-level PN branch. It is a project taxonomy umbrella rather than a direct GO assertion; all propagation must come from manually curated child nodes.

      status=mapped scope=ok_for_propagation_to_go GO=[GO:0000815 ESCRT III complex]
      rationale: This leaf is a component bucket for ESCRT-III machinery used in microautophagy contexts. The shared GO assertion is ESCRT III complex membership.
    • [group] Autophagy-Lysosome Pathway|Microautophagy|General microautophagy machinery
      status=no_mapping scope= GO=[]
      rationale: Reviewed as a broad PN taxonomy container. The descendants mix components, regulators, context labels, and mechanistic leaves, so propagation should come only from narrower curated nodes.
    • [class] Autophagy-Lysosome Pathway|Microautophagy
      status=context_only scope=too_broad_to_propagate GO=[GO:0016237 microautophagy]

description: >-
  CHMP6 encodes the human Vps20 ortholog, a myristoylated ESCRT-III component that acts at endosomal
  membranes as an acceptor/nucleator for ESCRT-II and helps recruit CHMP4-family ESCRT-III subunits.
  Its best-supported cellular role is endolysosomal membrane-cargo quality control: MVB assembly and
  sorting of ubiquitinated/endocytosed cargo, delivery toward lysosomal degradation, and VPS4-mediated
  ESCRT-III remodeling through its internal MIM2 motif. Broader ESCRT functions in viral budding,
  cytokinesis, nuclear-envelope sealing, plasma-membrane repair, and autophagy are biologically
  plausible pathway contexts, but the CHMP6-specific literature makes endosomal MVB sorting the core
  function.

  title: Structure/function analysis of four core ESCRT-III proteins reveals common regulatory role for extreme C-terminal
    domain.
  findings:
  - statement: Core ESCRT-III proteins including hVps20/CHMP6 are autoinhibited and can assemble on endosomal membranes when
      the C-terminal inhibitory region is removed.
    supporting_text: removing approximately 40 amino acids from the C-terminus of each protein unmasks a common ability to
      associate with endosomal membranes and assemble into large polymeric complexes
core_functions:
- description: CHMP6 is a myristoylated Vps20/ESCRT-III component that links ESCRT-II to ESCRT-III on endosomal membranes.
    By binding ESCRT-II, CHMP4-family ESCRT-III subunits, and VPS4 through its MIM2 element, CHMP6 supports ESCRT-III assembly/remodeling,
    MVB formation and sorting of ubiquitinated/endocytosed membrane cargo, and downstream late-endosome-to-lysosome degradation
    of cargo such as EGFR and ferroportin.

suggested_questions:
- question: Can endogenous CHMP6 depletion/rescue cleanly separate its ESCRT-II acceptor/nucleator role from later VPS4-mediated
    ESCRT-III recycling during MVB sorting?
- question: Should CHMP6 viral-budding annotations be removed or generalized to pathway-level ESCRT context given CHMP6-specific
    depletion data showing no reduction in HIV-1 release?
- question: Which autophagy and nuclear-envelope annotations are directly CHMP6-specific rather than inherited from broad
    ESCRT-III complex biology?
suggested_experiments:
- description: Rescue CHMP6-depleted cells with wild-type, non-myristoylated G2A, ESCRT-II-binding-defective, CHMP4-binding-defective,
    and MIM2 VPS4-binding-defective CHMP6 while measuring EGFR and ferroportin degradation, MVB ILV cargo incorporation, and
    ESCRT-III/VPS4 residence times.
  hypothesis: CHMP6-dependent cargo degradation will require membrane association, ESCRT-II/CHMP4 handoff, and VPS4 MIM2-mediated
    remodeling, with separable effects on initial MVB sorting and later ESCRT-III turnover.
- description: Compare acute CHMP6, CHMP4, and VPS4 perturbations in HIV-1 budding, MVB cargo degradation, and plasma membrane
    repair assays using matched depletion/rescue conditions.
  hypothesis: CHMP6 will be essential or strongly limiting for ESCRT-II-dependent endosomal cargo sorting but less directly
    required for HIV budding and other ESCRT pathway outputs that can bypass ESCRT-II/CHMP6.
- description: Use endogenous tagging and proximity labeling to define when CHMP6 is recruited during starvation autophagy,
    amphisome formation, and nuclear-envelope repair relative to CHMP7, CHMP4, IST1, and VPS4.
  hypothesis: CHMP6 recruitment in these contexts will be secondary or context-dependent compared with its constitutive role
    in endosomal ESCRT-II-to-ESCRT-III handoff.
