The high affinity receptor for IgE, FcɛRI on mast cells and basophils plays an essential role in immunological defense. Upon multivalent antigen binding, FcɛRI becomes phoshorylated by the protein-tyrosine kinase Lyn, as a result of receptor clustering in lipid rafts. FcɛRI has been shown to be ubiquitinated. Ubiquitination can lead to degradation by proteasomes, but it can also act as a sorting signal to internalize proteins destined to the endosomal/lysosomal pathway. We have analyzed whether FcɛRI ubiquitination takes place within rafts. We report biochemical and imaging evidence in rat basoleukemia cells for the presence of ubiquitinated FcɛRI in clustered rafts upon receptor activation. Moreover, we demonstrated that the ubiquitin ligases Cbl and Nedd4 colocalize with FcɛRI patches and showed that both ligases become associated with lipid rafts after activation of IgE signaling. Because Cbl is known to interact with the FcɛRI signaling complex, ubiquitination is likely to be an important parameter regulating IgE-triggered signaling occurring in rafts.
