Association of the human papillomavirus type 16 E7 oncoprotein with the 600-kDa retinoblastoma protein-associated factor, p600.

ABSTRACT: The human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16) E7 gene encodes a multifunctional oncoprotein that can subvert multiple cellular regulatory pathways. The best-known cellular targets of the HPV-16 E7 oncoprotein are the retinoblastoma tumor suppressor protein pRB and the related pocket proteins p107 and p130. However, there is ample evidence that E7 has additional cellular targets that contribute to its transforming potential. We isolated HPV-16 E7 associated cellular protein complexes by tandem affinity purification and mass spectrometry and identified the 600-kDa retinoblastoma protein associated factor, p600, as a cellular target of E7. Association of E7 with p600 is independent of the pocket proteins and is mediated through the N terminal E7 domain, which is related to conserved region 1 of the adenovirus E1A protein and importantly contributes to cellular transformation independent of pRB binding. Depletion of p600 protein levels by RNA interference substantially decreased anchorage-independent growth in HPV-positive and -negative human cancer cells. Therefore, p600 is a cellular target of E7 that regulates cellular pathways that contribute to anchorage-independent growth and cellular transformation.

Human papillomavirus type 16 E7 oncoprotein mediates CCNA1 promoter methylation.

Project description:Human papillomavirus (HPV) oncoproteins drive distinctive promoter methylation patterns in cancer. However, the underlying mechanism remains to be elucidated. Cyclin A1 (CCNA1) promoter methylation is strongly associated with HPV-associated cancer. CCNA1 methylation is found in HPV-associated cervical cancers, as well as in head and neck squamous cell cancer. Numerous pieces of evidence suggest that E7 may drive CCNA1 methylation. First, the CCNA1 promoter is methylated in HPV-positive epithelial lesions after transformation. Second, the CCNA1 promoter is methylated at a high level when HPV is integrated into the human genome. Finally, E7 has been shown to interact with DNA methyltransferase 1 (Dnmt1). Here, we sought to determine the mechanism by which E7 increases methylation in cervical cancer by using CCNA1 as a gene model. We investigated whether E7 induces CCNA1 promoter methylation, resulting in the loss of expression. Using both E7 knockdown and overexpression approaches in SiHa and C33a cells, our data showed that CCNA1 promoter methylation decreases with a corresponding increase in expression in E7 siRNA-transfected cells. By contrast, CCNA1 promoter methylation was augmented with a corresponding reduction in expression in E7-overexpressing cells. To confirm whether the binding of the E7-Dnmt1 complex to the CCNA1 promoter induced methylation and loss of expression, ChIP assays were carried out in E7-, del CR3-E7 and vector control-overexpressing C33a cells. The data showed that E7 induced CCNA1 methylation by forming a complex with Dnmt1 at the CCNA1 promoter, resulting in the subsequent reduction of expression in cancers. It is interesting to further explore the genome-wide mechanism of E7 oncoprotein-mediated DNA methylation.

Human papillomavirus 16 E6 and E7 oncoprotein expression alters microRNA expression in extracellular vesicles.

Project description:Extracellular vesicles released by cancer cells are mediators of intercellular communication that have been reported to contribute to carcinogenesis. Since they are readily detected in bodily fluids, they may also be used as cancer biomarkers. The E6/E7 oncoproteins drive human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated cancers, which account for approximately 5% of all human cancers worldwide. Here, we investigate how HPV16 E6/E7 oncogene expression in primary human epithelial cells alters miR expression in extracellular vesicles and compare these to changes in intracellular miR expression. Examining a panel of 68 cancer related miRs revealed that many miRs had similar expression patterns in cells and in extracellular vesicles, whereas some other miRs had different expression patterns and may be selectively packaged into extracellular vesicles. Interestingly, the set of miRs that may be selectively packaged in HPV16 E6/E7 extracellular vesicles is predicted to inhibit necrosis and apoptosis.

Human papillomavirus type 16 E7 oncoprotein causes a delay in repair of DNA damage.

Project description:Background and purposePatients with human papillomavirus related (HPV+) head and neck cancers (HNCs) demonstrate improved clinical outcomes compared to traditional HPV negative (HPV-) HNC patients. We have recently shown that HPV+ HNC cells are more sensitive to radiation than HPV- HNC cells. However, roles of HPV oncogenes in regulating the response of DNA damage repair remain unknown.Material and methodsUsing immortalized normal oral epithelial cell lines, HPV+ HNC derived cell lines, and HPV16 E7-transgenic mice we assessed the repair of DNA damage using γ-H2AX foci, single and split dose clonogenic survival assays, and immunoblot. The ability of E7 to modulate expression of proteins associated with DNA repair pathways was assessed by immunoblot.ResultsHPV16 E7 increased retention of γ-H2AX nuclear foci and significantly decreased sublethal DNA damage repair. While phospho-ATM, phospho-ATR, Ku70, and Ku80 expressions were not altered by E7, Rad51 was induced by E7. Correspondingly, HPV+ HNC cell lines showed retention of Rad51 after γ-radiation.ConclusionsOur findings provide further understanding as to how HPV16 E7 manipulates cellular DNA damage responses that may underlie its oncogenic potential and influence the altered sensitivity to radiation seen in HPV+ HNC as compared to HPV- HNC.

Bovine papillomavirus E7 transformation function correlates with cellular p600 protein binding.

Project description:The E7 oncoprotein of bovine papillomavirus type 1 (BPV-1) is required for the full transformation activity of the virus. However, the mechanism by which E7 contributes to cellular transformation is unknown. To address this question, we used the proteomic approach of tandem affinity purification to identify cellular proteins that are in complex with E7, and identified the 600-kDa protein, p600, as a binding partner of E7. The ability of E7 to complex with p600 correlated with its ability to enhance anchorage independence of BPV-1 E6-expressing cells. Furthermore, E7 mutant proteins impaired in their ability to bind p600 were transformation defective. Additionally, knockdown of p600 reduced transformation of cells expressing both BPV-1 E6 and E7, as well as E6 alone, suggesting that the ability of E7 to transformed cells is mediated, at least in part, through its ability to bind p600. These data complement work that shows that HPV16 E7 also interacts with p600, and that this interaction correlates with the ability of HPV16 E7 to transform cells. These studies thus identify p600 as a shared target of the E7 proteins of multiple papillomaviruses.

Extracellular overproduction of E7 oncoprotein of Iranian human papillomavirus type 16 by genetically engineered Lactococcus lactis.

Project description:BACKGROUND:We aimed at constructing Lactococcus lactis strains expressing HPV-16 recombinant E7 (rE7) oncoprotein and examining its overproduction ability followed by optimizing batch and fed-batch fermentations. Thereafter, in order to assess the immunogenicity of recombinant L. lactis cells, C57BL/6 mice were immunized by oral gavage. RESULTS:The results suggested that recombinant strains harboring optiE7 and E7 genes produced a maximum of 4.84 and 1.91??g/mL of rE7 in static flask experiments, while the corresponding strains gave a maximum yield of 35.49 and 14.24??g/mL in batch experiments, respectively. Fed-batch study indicated that the concentration of rE7 protein significantly increased after feeding yeast extract plus GM17 medium. The rE7 production of the best performing strains was 2.09- and 1.48-fold higher than that of the strains during the batch fermentation. Furthermore, biomass levels were 1.98- and 1.92-fold higher than those in batch cultivation. Oral immunization of C57BL/6 mice with recombinant L. lactis produced significant specific IgG and IgA antibody responses in serum and vaginal fluids, respectively. Our outcomes suggest that vaccination with L. lactis expressing rE7 can generate significant protective effects against E7-expressing cell line. Also, our study provides evidence that the presence of large amounts of E7-specific CD4+ T helper and CD8+ T cell precursors was stimulated. Significantly higher frequencies of HPV-16 E7 specific IL-2- and IFN-?-secreting T cells were detected in antigen-stimulated splenocytes and intestinal mucosal lymphocytes, when compared to the control groups. CONCLUSIONS:We conclude that optimization of culture conditions along with recombinant protein expression can highly stimulate both specific humoral and cell-mediated immune responses in mice after oral immunization. These promising results represent a step towards fast-tracking a vaccine against HPV-16-associated cervical cancer.

E7 oncoprotein from human papillomavirus 16 alters claudins expression and the sealing of epithelial tight junctions.

Project description:Tight junctions (TJs) are cell?cell adhesion structures frequently altered by oncogenic transformation. In the present study the role of human papillomavirus (HPV) 16 E7 oncoprotein on the sealing of TJs was investigated and also the expression level of claudins in mouse cervix and in epithelial Madin?Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) cells. It was found that there was reduced expression of claudins ?1 and ?10 in the cervix of 7?month?old transgenic K14E7 mice treated with 17??estradiol (E2), with invasive cancer. In addition, there was also a transient increase in claudin?1 expression in the cervix of 2?month?old K14E7 mice, and claudin?10 accumulated at the border of cells in the upper layer of the cervix in FvB mice treated with E2, and in K14E7 mice treated with or without E2. These changes were accompanied by an augmented paracellular permeability of the cervix in 2? and 7?month?old FvB mice treated with E2, which became more pronounced in K14E7 mice treated with or without E2. In MDCK cells the stable expression of E7 increased the space between adjacent cells and altered the architecture of the monolayers, induced the development of an acute peak of transepithelial electrical resistance accompanied by a reduced expression of claudins ?1, ?2 and ?10, and an increase in claudin?4. Moreover, E7 enhances the ability of MDCK cells to migrate through a 3D matrix and induces cell stiffening and stress fiber formation. These observations revealed that cell transformation induced by HPV16 E7 oncoprotein was accompanied by changes in the pattern of expression of claudins and the degree of sealing of epithelial TJs.

Interaction between the human papillomavirus 16 E7 oncoprotein and gelsolin ignites cancer cell motility and invasiveness.

Project description:The viral oncoprotein E7 from the "high-risk" Human Papillomavirus 16 (HPV16) strain is able, when expressed in human keratinocytes, to physically interact with the actin severing protein gelsolin (GSN). In a previous work it has been suggested that this protein-protein interaction can hinder GSN severing function, thus leading to actin network remodeling. In the present work we investigated the possible implications of this molecular interaction in cancer cell metastatic potential by analyzing two different human CC cell lines characterized by low or high expression levels of HPV16 DNA (SiHa and CaSki, respectively). In addition, a HPV-null CC cell line (C-33A), transfected in order to express the HPV16 E7 oncoprotein as well as two different deletion mutants, was also analyzed. We found that HPV16 E7 expression level was directly related with cervical cancer migration and invasion capabilities and that these HPV16 E7-related features were associated with Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) processes. These effects appeared as strictly attributable to the physical interaction of HPV16 E7 with GSN, since HPV16 E7 deletion mutants unable to bind to GSN were also unable to modify microfilament assembly dynamics and, therefore, cell movements and invasiveness. Altogether, these data profile the importance of the physical interaction between HPV16 E7 and GSN in the acquisition of the metastatic phenotype by CC cells, underscoring the role of HPV16 intracellular load as a risk factor in cancer.

Human papillomavirus 16 E7 inactivator of retinoblastoma family proteins complements human cytomegalovirus lacking UL97 protein kinase.

Project description:Several different families of DNA viruses encode proteins that inactivate the cellular retinoblastoma tumor suppressor protein (pRb), which normally functions to bind E2F transcription factors and restrict expression of genes necessary for cellular processes including DNA replication. Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) UL97, a protein kinase functionally orthologous to cellular cyclin-dependent kinases, phosphorylates pRb on inactivating residues during HCMV infection. To assess if such phosphorylation is biologically relevant, we tested whether the human papillomavirus type 16 E7 protein, which inactivates pRb family proteins by direct binding and destabilization, could substitute for UL97 during HCMV infection. In the absence of UL97, expression of wild-type E7 protein, but not a mutant E7 unable to bind pRb family proteins, restored E2F-responsive cellular gene expression, late viral gene expression, and viral DNA synthesis to levels normally observed during wild-type virus infection of quiescent cells. UL97-null mutants exhibited more pronounced defects in virus production and DNA synthesis in quiescent cells as compared to serum-fed, cycling cells. E7 expression substantially enhanced infectious virus production in quiescent cells, but did not complement the defects observed during UL97-null virus infection of cycling cells. Thus, a primary role of UL97 is to inactivate pRb family proteins during infection of quiescent cells, and this inactivation likely abets virus replication by induction of cellular E2F-responsive genes. Our findings have implications for human cytomegalovirus disease and for drugs that target UL97.

Human papillomavirus 16 E7 oncoprotein attenuates DNA damage checkpoint control by increasing the proteolytic turnover of claspin.

Project description:The human papillomavirus (HPV) 16 E7 oncoprotein has been reported previously to stimulate DNA damage and to activate host cell DNA damage checkpoints. How HPV-16 E7 maintains proliferation despite activated DNA damage checkpoints is incompletely understood. Here, we provide evidence that cells expressing the HPV-16 E7 oncoprotein can enter mitosis in the presence of DNA damage. We show that this activity of HPV-16 E7 involves attenuation of DNA damage checkpoint control by accelerating the proteolytic turnover of claspin. Claspin mediates the activation of CHK1 by ATR in response to replication stress, and its degradation plays a critical role in DNA damage checkpoint recovery. Expression of a nondegradable mutant of claspin was shown to inhibit mitotic entry in HPV-16 E7-expressing cells. Multiple components of the SCF(beta-TrCP)-based claspin degradation machinery were found deregulated in the presence of HPV-16 E7, including cullin 1, beta-TrCP, Aurora A, and Polo-like kinase-1 (PLK1). In contrast, no difference in the expression level of the claspin deubiquitinating enzyme USP7 was detected. Levels of Aurora A and PLK1 as well as phosphorylated PLK1 at threonine 210, a prerequisite for DNA damage checkpoint recovery, remained detectable following replication stress in HPV-16 E7-expressing cells but not in control cells. In summary, our results suggest that the HPV-16 E7 oncoprotein alleviates DNA damage checkpoint responses and promotes mitotic entry by accelerating claspin degradation through a mechanism that involves deregulation of components of the SCF(beta-TrCP)-based claspin degradation machinery.

The E7 oncoprotein of human papillomavirus type 16 stabilizes p53 through a mechanism independent of p19(ARF).

Project description:High-risk human papillomaviruses are causally associated with cervical cancer. Two viral oncogenes, E6 and E7, are expressed in most cervical cancers, and these genes cause cancer when expressed in experimental animals. The E6 protein targets the p53 tumor suppressor for degradation, while the E7 protein inactivates the retinoblastoma susceptibility protein (pRb), in part by stimulating its degradation. In contrast, expression of E7 in the absence of E6 leads to stabilization of p53. Here we show that E7 stabilizes p53 in mouse embryo fibroblasts lacking p19(ARF). The stable p53 is active as a transcriptional activator, as evidenced by the increased expression of the p53-responsive mdm2 gene. Normally, MDM2 protein inhibits p53 function in an autoregulatory loop. Regulation of p53 by MDM2 is required for murine development as well as for proliferation of cultured human fibroblasts. However, E7-expressing human fibroblasts continue to divide even though E7 abrogates the ability of MDM2 and p53 to bind. Furthermore, E7-expressing cells are not more sensitive to UV light, an agent that has been reported to induce apoptosis mediated by p53. These results indicate that in addition to inhibiting the ability of MDM2 to regulate p53, E7 must block signaling steps downstream of p53 to allow cell division.
