Mutations in the Sequestosome 1 gene ( SQSTM1; also known as p62) have recently been identified as the cause of 5q35-linked Paget's disease of bone (PDB). All of the mutations identified to date affect the ubiquitin-associated (UBA) domain of SQSTM1, a region of the protein that binds noncovalently to ubiquitin. In this review we consider the possible functional significance of the SQSTM1-ubiquitin interaction,...
