The 26 S proteasome: from basic mechanisms to drug targeting.

ABSTRACT: The regulated degradation of proteins within eukaryotes and bacterial cells is catalyzed primarily by large multimeric proteases in ATP-dependent manner. In eukaryotes, the 26 S proteasome is essential for the rapid destruction of key regulatory proteins, such as cell cycle regulators and transcription factors, whose fast and tuned elimination is necessary for the proper control of the fundamental cell processes they regulate. In addition, the 26 S proteasome is responsible for cell quality control by eliminating defective proteins from the cytosol and endoplasmic reticulum. These defective proteins can be misfolded proteins, nascent prematurely terminated polypeptides, or proteins that fail to assemble into complexes. These diverse activities and its central role in apoptosis have made the proteasome an important target for drug development, in particular to combat malignancies.

ASK1 negatively regulates the 26 S proteasome.

Project description:The 26 S proteasome, composed of the 20 S core and 19 S regulatory particle, plays a central role in ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis. Disruption of this process contributes to the pathogenesis of the various diseases; however, the mechanisms underlying the regulation of 26 S proteasome activity remain elusive. Here, cell culture experiments and in vitro assays demonstrated that apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1), a member of the MAPK kinase kinase family, negatively regulated 26 S proteasome activity. Immunoprecipitation/Western blot analyses revealed that ASK1 did not interact with 20 S catalytic core but did interact with ATPases making up the 19 S particle, which is responsible for recognizing polyubiquitinated proteins, unfolding them, and translocating them into the 20 S catalytic core in an ATP-dependent process. Importantly, ASK1 phosphorylated Rpt5, an AAA ATPase of the 19 S proteasome, and inhibited its ATPase activity, an effect that may underlie the ability of ASK1 to inhibit 26 S proteasome activity. The current findings point to a novel role for ASK1 in the regulation of 26 S proteasome and offer new strategies for treating human diseases caused by proteasome malfunction.

Photochemical Internalization for Intracellular Drug Delivery. From Basic Mechanisms to Clinical Research.

Project description:Photochemical internalisation (PCI) is a unique intervention which involves the release of endocytosed macromolecules into the cytoplasmic matrix. PCI is based on the use of photosensitizers placed in endocytic vesicles that, following light activation, lead to rupture of the endocytic vesicles and the release of the macromolecules into the cytoplasmic matrix. This technology has been shown to improve the biological activity of a number of macromolecules that do not readily penetrate the plasma membrane, including type I ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs), gene-encoding plasmids, adenovirus and oligonucleotides and certain chemotherapeutics, such as bleomycin. This new intervention has also been found appealing for intracellular delivery of drugs incorporated into nanocarriers and for cancer vaccination. PCI is currently being evaluated in clinical trials. Data from the first-in-human phase I clinical trial as well as an update on the development of the PCI technology towards clinical practice is presented here.

Integrative chemoproteomics reveals anticancer mechanisms of silver(i) targeting the proteasome regulatory complex.

Project description:Silver compounds have favorable properties as promising anticancer drug candidates, such as low side effects, anti-inflammatory properties, and high potential to overcome drug resistance. However, the exact mechanism by which Ag(i) confers anticancer activity remains unclear, which hinders further development of anticancer applications of silver compounds. Here, we combine thermal proteome profiling, cysteine profiling, and ubiquitome profiling to study the molecular mechanisms of silver(i) complexes supported by non-toxic thiourea (TU) ligands. Through the formation of AgTU complexes, TU ligands deliver Ag+ ions to cancer cells and tumour xenografts to elicit inhibitory potency. Our chemical proteomics studies show that AgTU acts on the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) and disrupts protein homeostasis, which has been identified as a main anticancer mechanism. Specifically, Ag+ ions are released from AgTU in the cellular environment, directly target the 19S proteasome regulatory complex, and may oxidize its cysteine residues, thereby inhibiting proteasomal activity and accumulating ubiquitinated proteins. After AgTU treatment, proteasome subunits are massively ubiquitinated and aberrantly aggregated, leading to impaired protein homeostasis and paraptotic death of cancer cells. This work reveals the unique anticancer mechanism of Ag(i) targeting the 19S proteasome regulatory complex and opens up new avenues for optimizing silver-based anticancer efficacy.

Targeting Chromatin Complexes in Myeloid Malignancies and Beyond: From Basic Mechanisms to Clinical Innovation.

Project description:The aberrant function of chromatin regulatory networks (epigenetics) is a hallmark of cancer promoting oncogenic gene expression. A growing body of evidence suggests that the disruption of specific chromatin-associated protein complexes has therapeutic potential in malignant conditions, particularly those that are driven by aberrant chromatin modifiers. Of note, a number of enzymatic inhibitors that block the catalytic function of histone modifying enzymes have been established and entered clinical trials. Unfortunately, many of these molecules do not have potent single-agent activity. One potential explanation for this phenomenon is the fact that those drugs do not profoundly disrupt the integrity of the aberrant network of multiprotein complexes on chromatin. Recent advances in drug development have led to the establishment of novel inhibitors of protein-protein interactions as well as targeted protein degraders that may provide inroads to longstanding effort to physically disrupt oncogenic multiprotein complexes on chromatin. In this review, we summarize some of the current concepts on the role epigenetic modifiers in malignant chromatin states with a specific focus on myeloid malignancies and recent advances in early-phase clinical trials.

Subcomplexes of PA700, the 19 S regulator of the 26 S proteasome, reveal relative roles of AAA subunits in 26 S proteasome assembly and activation and ATPase activity.

Project description:We have identified, purified, and characterized three subcomplexes of PA700, the 19 S regulatory complex of the 26 S proteasome. These subcomplexes (denoted PS-1, PS-2, and PS-3) collectively account for all subunits present in purified PA700 but contain no overlapping components or significant levels of non-PA700 proteins. Each subcomplex contained two of the six AAA subunits (Rpt1-6) that form the binding interface of PA700 with the 20 S proteasome, the protease component of the 26 S proteasome. Unlike intact PA700, no individual PA700 subcomplex displayed ATPase activity or proteasome activating activity. However, both activities were manifested by ATP-dependent in vitro reconstitution of PA700 from the subcomplexes. We exploited functional reconstitution to define and distinguish roles of different PA700 subunits in PA700 function by selective alteration of subunits within individual subcomplexes prior to reconstitution. Carboxypeptidase treatment of either PS-2 or PS-3, subcomplexes containing specific Rpt subunits previously shown to have important roles in 26 S proteasome assembly and activation, inhibited these processes but did not affect PA700 reconstitution or ATPase activity. Thus, the intact C termini of both subunits are required for 26 S proteasome assembly and activation but not for PA700 reconstitution. Surprisingly, carboxypeptidase treatment of PS-1 also inhibited 26 S proteasome assembly and activation upon reconstitution with untreated PS-2 and PS-3. These results suggest a previously unidentified role for other PA700 subunits in 26 S proteasome assembly and activation. Our results reveal relative structural and functional relationships among the AAA subunits of PA700 and new insights about mechanisms of 26 S proteasome assembly and activation.

Structural basis for specific recognition of Rpt1p, an ATPase subunit of 26 S proteasome, by proteasome-dedicated chaperone Hsm3p.

Project description:The 26 S proteasome is a 2.5-MDa molecular machine that degrades ubiquitinated proteins in eukaryotic cells. It consists of a proteolytic core particle and two 19 S regulatory particles (RPs) composed of 6 ATPase (Rpt) and 13 non-ATPase (Rpn) subunits. Multiple proteasome-dedicated chaperones facilitate the assembly of the proteasome, but little is known about the detailed mechanisms. Hsm3, a 19 S RP dedicated chaperone, transiently binds to the C-terminal domain of the Rpt1 subunit and forms a tetrameric complex, Hsm3-Rpt1-Rpt2-Rpn1, during maturation of the ATPase ring of 19 S RP. To elucidate the structural basis of Hsm3 function, we determined the crystal structures of Hsm3 and its complex with the C-terminal domain of the Rpt1 subunit (Rpt1C). Hsm3 has a C-shaped structure that consists of 11 HEAT repeats. The structure of the Hsm3-Rpt1C complex revealed that the interacting surface between Hsm3 and Rpt1 is a hydrophobic core and a complementary charged surface. Mutations in the Hsm3-Rpt1 surface resulted in the assembly defect of the 26 S proteasome. Furthermore, a structural model of the Hsm3-Rpt ring complex and an in vitro binding assay suggest that Hsm3 can bind Rpt2 in addition to Rpt1. Collectively, our results provide the structural basis of the molecular functions of Hsm3 for the RP assembly.

Targeting JWA for Cancer Therapy: Functions, Mechanisms and Drug Discovery.

Project description:Tumor heterogeneity limits the precision treatment of targeted drugs. It is important to find new tumor targets. JWA, also known as ADP ribosylation factor-like GTPase 6 interacting protein 5 (ARL6IP5, GenBank: AF070523, 1998), is a microtubule-associated protein and an environmental response gene. Substantial evidence shows that JWA is low expressed in a variety of malignancies and is correlated with overall survival. As a tumor suppressor, JWA inhibits tumor progression by suppressing multiple oncogenes or activating tumor suppressor genes. Low levels of JWA expression in tumors have been reported to be associated with multiple aspects of cancer progression, including angiogenesis, proliferation, apoptosis, metastasis, and chemotherapy resistance. In this review, we will discuss the structure and biological functions of JWA in tumors, examine the potential therapeutic strategies for targeting JWA and explore the directions for future investigation.

Exploring EZH2-Proteasome Dual-Targeting Drug Discovery through a Computational Strategy to Fight Multiple Myeloma.

Project description:Multiple myeloma is an incurable plasma cell neoplastic disease representing about 10-15% of all haematological malignancies diagnosed in developed countries. Proteasome is a key player in multiple myeloma and proteasome inhibitors are the current first-line of treatment. However, these are associated with limited clinical efficacy due to acquired resistance. One of the solutions to overcome this problem is a polypharmacology approach, namely combination therapy and multitargeting drugs. Several polypharmacology avenues are currently being explored. The simultaneous inhibition of EZH2 and Proteasome 20S remains to be investigated, despite the encouraging evidence of therapeutic synergy between the two. Therefore, we sought to bridge this gap by proposing a holistic in silico strategy to find new dual-target inhibitors. First, we assessed the characteristics of both pockets and compared the chemical space of EZH2 and Proteasome 20S inhibitors, to establish the feasibility of dual targeting. This was followed by molecular docking calculations performed on EZH2 and Proteasome 20S inhibitors from ChEMBL 25, from which we derived a predictive model to propose new EZH2 inhibitors among Proteasome 20S compounds, and vice versa, which yielded two dual-inhibitor hits. Complementarily, we built a machine learning QSAR model for each target but realised their application to our data is very limited as each dataset occupies a different region of chemical space. We finally proceeded with molecular dynamics simulations of the two docking hits against the two targets. Overall, we concluded that one of the hit compounds is particularly promising as a dual-inhibitor candidate exhibiting extensive hydrogen bonding with both targets. Furthermore, this work serves as a framework for how to rationally approach a dual-targeting drug discovery project, from the selection of the targets to the prediction of new hit compounds.

Thioredoxin Txnl1/TRP32 is a redox-active cofactor of the 26 S proteasome.

Project description:The 26 S proteasome is a large proteolytic machine, which degrades most intracellular proteins. We found that thioredoxin, Txnl1/TRP32, binds to Rpn11, a subunit of the regulatory complex of the human 26 S proteasome. Txnl1 is abundant, metabolically stable, and widely expressed and is present in the cytoplasm and nucleus. Txnl1 has thioredoxin activity with a redox potential of about -250 mV. Mutant Txnl1 with one active site cysteine replaced by serine formed disulfide bonds to eEF1A1, a substrate-recruiting factor of the 26 S proteasome. eEF1A1 is therefore a likely physiological substrate. In response to knockdown of Txnl1, ubiquitin-protein conjugates were moderately stabilized. Hence, Txnl1 is the first example of a direct connection between protein reduction and proteolysis, two major intracellular protein quality control mechanisms.

Ubiquitin modulates 26<i>S</i> proteasome conformational dynamics and promotes substrate degradation.

Project description:The 26S proteasome recognizes thousands of appropriate protein substrates in eukaryotic cells through attached ubiquitin chains and uses its adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) motor for mechanical unfolding and translocation into a proteolytic chamber. Here, we used single-molecule Förster resonance energy transfer measurements to monitor the conformational dynamics of the proteasome, observe individual substrates during their progression toward degradation, and elucidate how these processes are regulated by ubiquitin chains. Rapid transitions between engagement- and processing-competent proteasome conformations control substrate access to the ATPase motor. Ubiquitin chain binding functions as an allosteric regulator to slow these transitions, stabilize the engagement-competent state, and aid substrate capture to accelerate degradation initiation. Upon substrate engagement, the proteasome remains in processing-competent states for translocation and unfolding, except for apparent motor slips when encountering stably folded domains. Our studies revealed how ubiquitin chains allosterically regulate degradation initiation, which ensures substrate selectivity in a crowded cellular environment.
