Abstract
Autophagy is a crucial immune defense mechanism that controls the survival and pathogenesis of M. tb by maintaining cell physiology during stress and pathogen attack. The E3-Ub ligases (PRKN, SMURF1, and NEDD4) and autophagy receptors (SQSTM1, TAX1BP1, CALCOCO2, OPTN, and NBR1) play key roles in this process. Galectins (LGALSs), which bind to sugars and are involved in identifying damaged cell membranes caused by intracellular pathogens such as M. tb, are essential. These include LGALS3, LGALS8, and LGALS9, which respond to endomembrane damage and regulate endomembrane damage caused by toxic chemicals, protein aggregates, and intracellular pathogens, including M. tb. They also activate selective autophagy and de novo endolysosome biogenesis. LGALS3, LGALS9, and LGALS8 interact with various components to activate autophagy and repair damage, while CGAS-STING1 plays a critical role in providing immunity against M. tb by activating selective autophagy and producing type I IFNs with antimycobacterial functions. STING1 activates cGAMP-dependent autophagy which provides immunity against various pathogens. Additionally, cytoplasmic surveillance pathways activated by ds-DNA, such as inflammasomes mediated by NLRP3 and AIM2 complexes, control M. tb. Modulation of E3-Ub ligases with small regulatory molecules of LGALSs and TRIM proteins could be a novel host-based therapeutic approach for controlling TB.

Abstract
Infectious diseases, such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb)-caused tuberculosis (TB), remain a global threat exacerbated by increasing drug resistance. Host-directed therapy (HDT) is a promising strategy for infection treatment through targeting host immunity. However, the limited understanding of the function and regulatory mechanism of host factors involved in immune defense against infections has impeded HDT development. Here, we identify the ubiquitin ligase (E3) TRIM27 (tripartite motif-containing 27) as a host protective factor against Mtb by enhancing host macroautophagy/autophagy flux in an E3 ligase activity-independent manner. Mechanistically, upon Mtb infection, nuclear-localized TRIM27 increases and functions as a transcription activator of TFEB (transcription factor EB). Specifically, TRIM27 binds to the TFEB promoter and the TFEB transcription factor CREB1 (cAMP responsive element binding protein 1), thus enhancing CREB1-TFEB promoter binding affinity and promoting CREB1 transcription activity toward TFEB, eventually inducing autophagy-related gene expression as well as autophagy flux activation to clear the pathogen. Furthermore, TFEB activator 1 can rescue TRIM27 deficiency-caused decreased autophagy-related gene transcription and attenuated autophagy flux, and accordingly suppressed the intracellular survival of Mtb in cell and mouse models. Taken together, our data reveal that TRIM27 is a host defense factor against Mtb, and the TRIM27-CREB1-TFEB axis is a potential HDT-based TB target that can enhance host autophagy flux.

Abstract
TRIM proteins are characterized by their conserved N-terminal RING, B-box, and coiled-coil domains. These proteins are efficient regulators of autophagy, apoptosis, and innate immune responses and confer immunity against viruses and bacteria. TRIMs function as receptors or scaffold proteins that target substrates for autophagy-mediated degradation. Most TRIMs interact with the BECN1-ULK1 complex to form TRIMosomes, thereby efficiently targeting substrates to autophagosomes. They regulate the functions of ATG proteins through physical interactions or ubiquitination. TRIMs affect the lipidation of MAP1LC3B1 to form MAP1LC3B2, which is a prerequisite for phagophore and autophagosome formation. In addition, they regulate MTOR kinase and TFEB, thereby regulating the expression of ATG genes. TRIM proteins are efficient regulators of apoptosis and are crucial for regulating cell proliferation and tumor formation. Many TRIM proteins regulate intrinsic and extrinsic apoptosis via the cell surface receptors TGFBR2, TNFRSF1A, and FAS. Mitochondria modulate the anti- and proapoptotic functions of BCL2, BAX, BAK1, and CYCS. These proteins use a multipronged approach to regulate the intrinsic and extrinsic apoptotic pathways, culminating in coordinated activation or inhibition of the initiator and executor CASPs. Furthermore, TRIMs can have a dual effect in determining cell fate and are therefore crucial for cellular homeostasis. In this review, we discuss mechanistic insights into the role of TRIM proteins in regulating autophagy and apoptosis, which can be used to better understand cellular physiology. These findings can be used to develop therapeutic interventions to prevent or treat multiple genetic and infectious diseases.
