RNA-binding protein HuR enhances p53 translation in response to ultraviolet light irradiation.

ABSTRACT: Exposure to short-wavelength UV light (UVC) strongly induces p53 expression. In human RKO colorectal carcinoma cells, this increase was not due to elevated p53 mRNA abundance, cytoplasmic export of p53 mRNA, or UVC-triggered stabilization of the p53 protein. Instead, p53 translation was potently enhanced after UVC irradiation. The 3' UTR of p53 was found to be a target of the RNA-binding protein HuR in a UVC-dependent manner in vitro and in vivo. HuR-overexpressing RKO cells displayed elevated p53 levels, whereas cells expressing reduced HuR showed markedly diminished p53 abundance and p53 translation. Our results demonstrate a role for HuR in binding to the p53 mRNA and enhancing its translation.

Project description:Untreated or 20 J/m2 UVC treated RKO cells were collected and RNA from either whole-cell lysates or from polysomal fractions was extracted at 0 (untreated), 3, 6, and 12 h after treatment. RNA from whole-cell lysates or each of 11 polysomal fraction was reverse-transcribed in the presence of [α-33P]dCTP and the radiolabeled product used to hybridize human cDNA arrays. The experiment was repeated using three independent sample sets. The samples were named T-c-A, T-c-B, T-c-C, T-3h-A, T-3h-B, T-3h-C, T-6h-A, T-6h-B, T-6h-C, T-12h-A, T-12h-B, T-12h-C, P-c-1-A, P-c-2-A, P-c-3-A, P-c-4-A, P-c-5-A, P-c-6-A, P-c-7-A, P-c-8-A, P-c-9-A, P-c-10-A, P-c-11-A, P-c-1-B, P-c-2-B, P-c-3-B, P-c-4-B, P-c-5-B, P-c-6-B, P-c-7-B, P-c-8-B, P-c-9-B, P-c-10-B, P-c-11-B, P-c-2-C, P-c-3-C, P-c-4-C, P-c-5-C, P-c-6-C, P-c-7-C, P-c-8-C, P-c-9-C, P-c-10-C, P-c-11-C, P-3h-1-A, P-3h-2-A, P-3h-3-A, P-3h-4-A, P-3h-5-A, P-3h-6-A, P-3h-7-A, P-3h-8-A, P-3h-9-A, P-3h-10-A, P-3h-11-A, P-3h-1-B, P-3h-2-B, P-3h-3-B, P-3h-4-B, P-3h-5-B, P-3h-6-B, P-3h-7-B, P-3h-8-B, P-3h-9-B, P-3h-10-B, P-3h-11-B, P-3h-1-C, P-3h-2-C, P-3h-3-C, P-3h-4-C, P-3h-6-C, P-3h-7-C, P-3h-8-C, P-3h-9-C, P-3h-10-C, P-3h-11-C, P-6h-1-A, P-6h-2-A, P-6h-3-A, P-6h-4-A, P-6h-5-A, P-6h-6-A, P-6h-7-A, P-6h-8-A, P-6h-9-A, P-6h-10-A, P-6h-11-A, P-6h-1-B, P-6h-2-B, P-6h-3-B, P-6h-4-B, P-6h-5-B, P-6h-6-B, P-6h-7-B, P-6h-8-B, P-6h-9-B, P-6h-10-B, P-6h-11-B, P-6h-1-C, P-6h-2-C, P-6h-3-C, P-6h-4-C, P-6h-5-C, P-6h-6-C, P-6h-7-C, P-6h-8-C, P-6h-9-C, P-6h-10-C, P-6h-11-C, P-12h-1-A, P-12h-2-A, P-12h-3-A, P-12h-4-A, P-12h-5-A, P-12h-6-A, P-12h-7-A, P-12h-8-A, P-12h-9-A, P-12h-10-A, P-12h-11-A, P-12h-1-B, P-12h-2-B, P-12h-3-B, P-12h-4-B, P-12h-5-B, P-12h-6-B, P-12h-7-B, P-12h-8-B, P-12h-9-B, P-12h-10-B, P-12h-11-B, P-12h-1-C, P-12h-2-C, P-12h-3-C, P-12h-6-C, P-12h-7-C, P-12h-8-C, P-12h-9-C, P-12h-10-C, P-12h-11-C. ‘T’ represents total RNA, ‘P’ represents RNA from polysomes fractions, ‘c’ represents RNA from untreated cells, ‘3h’ represents RNA from cells collected 3 h after UVC treatment, ‘6h’ represents RNA from cells collected 6 h after UVC treatment, ‘12h’ represents RNA from cells collected 12 h after UVC treatment.
