Ubiquitin and ubiquitin-protein conjugates in PC12h cells were detected with in vitro [125I]ubiquitination, and quantified by immunoblotting. These levels were altered by nerve growth factor (NGF), which promotes neuronal differentiation. (i) Levels of high molecular weight (HMW) ubiquitin-protein conjugates ranging from 40 to 1,000 kDa were increased by 2 days of NGF treatment, and remained high up to 10 days of NGF treatment. (ii) Ubiquitin and a 23-kDa conjugate tended to be decreased from days 2 to 10 of NGF treatment. 10-Day culture with 10 nM staurosporine, n protein kinase inhibitor, that blocks NGF-induced neurite outgrowth suppressed the NGF-induced increases in levels of HMW conjugates. Cyclic AMP and forskolin, both of which promote neurite outgrowth, mimicked the NGF-induced changes in ubiquitin and HMW conjugates, but phorbol ester and epidermal growth factor had little effect. These findings suggest that changes in ubiquitin-protein conjugates are closely coupled with neuronal differentiation.
