The presence of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and impaired ubiquitinproteasome system (UPS) activity has been independently implicated in the pathophysiology of conformational diseases. Here, we reveal a link between ER stress and the functionality of the UPS. Treatment of cells with different ER stressors delayed the degradation of an ER reporter substrate and caused a subtle but consistent accumulation of three independent nuclear/cytosolic UPS reporter substrates. A similar signature increase was observed upon induction of ER stress in transgenic mice expressing a reporter substrate. Cells undergoing ER stress failed to clear efficiently UBB+1, an aberrant ubiquitin found in conformational diseases, which in turn caused general impairment of the UPS. We conclude that ER stress has a general inhibitory effect on the UPS. The compromised UPS during ER stress may explain the long-term gradual accumulation of misfolded proteins as well as the selective vulnerability of particular cell populations in conformational diseases.
