Function

Sequestosome (SQS) or p62, is required for the formation and autophagic degredation of polyubiquitin-containg bodies. SQS may regulate signaling cascades through ubiquitination.

SQS is a multi-domain protein. SQS domain structure includes:
PB1 domain which contains Phox and Berm1
ZZ-type zinc finger
SMIR – SOD interaction domain
TB – TRAF6 binding motif
LC3 – microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3B
LIR – interaction region
UBA – ubiquitin association domain.
