USP10 regulates p53 localization and stability by deubiquitinating p53.

ABSTRACT: Stability and localization of p53 is essential for its tumor suppressor function. Ubiquitination by the E3 ubiquitin ligase Mdm2 is the major regulatory mechanism of p53, which induces p53 nuclear export and degradation. However, it is unclear whether ubiquitinated cytoplasmic p53 can be recycled. Here, we report that USP10, a cytoplasmic ubiquitin-specific protease, deubiquitinates p53, reversing Mdm2-induced p53 nuclear export and degradation. After DNA damage, USP10 is stabilized, and a fraction of USP10 translocates to the nucleus to activate p53. The translocation and stabilization of USP10 is regulated by ATM -mediated phosphorylation of USP10 at Thr42 and Ser337. Finally, USP10 suppresses tumor cell growth in cells with wild-type p53, with USP10 expression downregulated in a high percentage of clear cell carcinomas, known to have few p53 mutations. These findings reveal USP10 to be a novel regulator of p53, providing an alternative mechanism of p53 inhibition in cancers with wild-type p53.

Dmp1 physically interacts with p53 and positively regulates p53's stability, nuclear localization, and function.

Project description:The transcription factor Dmp1 is a Ras/HER2-activated haplo-insufficient tumor suppressor that activates the Arf/p53 pathway of cell-cycle arrest. Recent evidence suggests that Dmp1 may activate p53 independently of Arf in certain cell types. Here, we report findings supporting this concept with the definition of an Arf-independent function for Dmp1 in tumor suppression. We found that Dmp1 and p53 can interact directly in mammalian cells via the carboxyl-terminus of p53 and the DNA-binding domain of Dmp1. Expression of Dmp1 antagonized ubiquitination of p53 by Mdm2 and promoted nuclear localization of p53. Dmp1-p53 binding significantly increased the level of p53, independent of the DNA-binding activity of Dmp1. Mechanistically, p53 target genes were activated synergistically by the coexpression of Dmp1 and p53 in p53(-/-);Arf(-/-) cells, and genotoxic responses of these genes were hampered more dramatically in Dmp1(-/-) and p53(-/-) cells than in Arf(-/-) cells. Together, our findings identify a robust new mechanism of p53 activation mediated by direct physical interaction between Dmp1 and p53.

Deubiquitinating enzyme USP10 promotes hepatocellular carcinoma metastasis through deubiquitinating and stabilizing Smad4 protein.

Project description:Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has emerged as one of the most prevalent life-threatening cancers, and the high mortality rate is largely due to the metastasis. The sustained activation of Smad4 and transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) is closely associated with advanced HCC metastasis. However, the regulatory mechanism underlying the aberrant activation of Smad4 and TGF-β pathway remains elusive. In this study, using a functional screen of USPs siRNA library, we identified ubiquitin-specific proteases USP10 as a deubiquitinating enzyme (DUB) that sustains the protein level of Smad4 and activates TGF-β signaling. Further analysis showed that USP10 directly interacts with Smad4 and stabilizes it through the cleavage of its proteolytic ubiquitination, thus promoting HCC metastasis. The suppression of USP10 by either shRNAs or catalytic inhibitor Spautin-1 significantly inhibited the migration of HCC cells, whereas the reconstitution of Smad4 was able to efficiently rescue this defect. Overall, our study not only uncovers the regulatory effect of USP10 on the protein abundance of Smad4, but also indicates that USP10 could be regarded as a potential intervention target for the metastatic HCC in Smad4-positive patients.

The deubiquitinase USP10 regulates KLF4 stability and suppresses lung tumorigenesis.

Project description:Krüppel-like factor 4 (KLF4), a key transcription factor, acts as a multifunctional player involved in the progression of numerous aggressive cancers. The proteasome-dependent pathway is one of the main modalities in controlling KLF4 abundance at a posttranslational level. Although some of the ubiquitin ligases have been identified, the deubiquitinases of KLF4 and the regulatory function remain unexplored. Here, by screening ubiquitin-specific proteases that may interact with KLF4, we found ubiquitin-specific peptidase 10 (USP10) as a deubiquitinating enzyme for KLF4. Forced expression of USP10 remarkably increases KLF4 protein level by blocking the latter degradation, whereas the depletion of USP10 promotes KLF4 degradation and thus enhances tumorigenesis. Loss of USP10 in mice downregulates KLF4 expression and accelerates KrasG12D-driven lung adenocarcinoma initiation and progression. In addition, our data revealed that KLF4 can facilitate the transcription of tumor suppressor TIMP3 by directly binding to the TIMP3 promoter. Clinically, reduction of USP10 expression, concomitant with decreased KLF4 and TIMP3 abundance in carcinoma tissue, predicts poor prognosis of lung cancer patient. Taken together, our results demonstrate that USP10 is a critical regulator of KLF4, pinpointing USP10-KLF4-TIMP3 axis as a promising therapeutic target in lung cancer.

Iron metabolism regulates p53 signaling through direct heme-p53 interaction and modulation of p53 localization, stability, and function.

Project description:Iron excess is closely associated with tumorigenesis in multiple types of human cancers, with underlying mechanisms yet unclear. Recently, iron deprivation has emerged as a major strategy for chemotherapy, but it exerts tumor suppression only on select human malignancies. Here, we report that the tumor suppressor protein p53 is downregulated during iron excess. Strikingly, the iron polyporphyrin heme binds to p53 protein, interferes with p53-DNA interactions, and triggers both nuclear export and cytosolic degradation of p53. Moreover, in a tumorigenicity assay, iron deprivation suppressed wild-type p53-dependent tumor growth, suggesting that upregulation of wild-type p53 signaling underlies the selective efficacy of iron deprivation. Our findings thus identify a direct link between iron/heme homeostasis and the regulation of p53 signaling, which not only provides mechanistic insights into iron-excess-associated tumorigenesis but may also help predict and improve outcomes in iron-deprivation-based chemotherapy.

USP10 regulates B cell response to SARS-CoV-2 or HIV-1 nanoparticle vaccines through deubiquitinating AID.

Project description:Activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) initiates class-switch recombination and somatic hypermutation (SHM) in antibody genes. Protein expression and activity are tightly controlled by various mechanisms. However, it remains unknown whether a signal from the extracellular environment directly affects the AID activity in the nucleus where it works. Here, we demonstrated that a deubiquitinase USP10, which specifically stabilizes nuclear AID protein, can translocate into the nucleus after AKT-mediated phosphorylation at its T674 within the NLS domain. Interestingly, the signals from BCR and TLR1/2 synergistically promoted this phosphorylation. The deficiency of USP10 in B cells significantly decreased AID protein levels, subsequently reducing neutralizing antibody production after immunization with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) or human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) nanoparticle vaccines. Collectively, we demonstrated that USP10 functions as an integrator for both BCR and TLR signals and directly regulates nuclear AID activity. Its manipulation could be used for the development of vaccines and adjuvants.

Regulation of p53 stability and function by the deubiquitinating enzyme USP42.

Project description:The p53 tumour suppressor protein is a transcription factor that prevents oncogenic progression by activating the expression of apoptosis and cell-cycle arrest genes in stressed cells. The stability of p53 is tightly regulated by ubiquitin-dependent degradation, driven mainly by the ubiquitin ligase MDM2. In this study, we have identified USP42 as a DUB that interacts with and deubiquitinates p53. USP42 forms a direct complex with p53 and controls level of ubiquitination during the early phase of the response to a range of stress signals. Although we do not find a clear role for USP42 in controlling either the basal or fully activated levels of p53, the function of USP42 is required to allow the rapid activation of p53-dependent transcription and a p53-dependent cell-cycle arrest in response to stress. These functions of USP42 are likely to contribute to the repair and recovery of cells from mild or transient damage.

Positive regulation of p53 stability and activity by the deubiquitinating enzyme Otubain 1.

Project description:The ubiquitin (Ub)-proteasome system plays a pivotal role in the regulation of p53 protein stability and activity. p53 is ubiquitinated and destabilized by MDM2 and several other Ub E3s, whereas it is deubiquitinated and stabilized by Ub-specific protease (USP)7 and USP10. Here we show that the ovarian tumour domain-containing Ub aldehyde-binding protein 1 (Otub1) is a novel p53 regulator. Otub1 directly suppresses MDM2-mediated p53 ubiquitination in cells and in vitro. Overexpression of Otub1 drastically stabilizes and activates p53, leading to apoptosis and marked inhibition of cell proliferation in a p53-dependent manner. These effects are independent of its catalytic activity but require residue Asp88. Mutation of Asp88 to Ala (Otub1(D88A)) abolishes activity of Otub1 to suppress p53 ubiquitination. Further, wild-type Otub1 and its catalytic mutant (Otub1(C91S)), but not Otub1(D88A), bind to the MDM2 cognate E2, UbcH5, and suppress its Ub-conjugating activity in vitro. Overexpression of Otub1(D88A) or ablation of endogenous Otub1 by siRNA markedly impaired p53 stabilization and activation in response to DNA damage. Together, these results reveal a novel function for Otub1 in regulating p53 stability and activity.

USP10 Regulates ZEB1 Ubiquitination and Protein Stability to Inhibit ZEB1-Mediated Colorectal Cancer Metastasis.

Project description:Zinc finger E-box-binding homeobox 1 (ZEB1) is a transcription factor that can promote tumor invasion and metastasis by inducing epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). To date, regulation of ZEB1 by RAS/RAF signaling remains unclear, and few studies have examined posttranslation modification of ZEB1, including its ubiquitination. In human colorectal cancer cell lines with RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK activation, an interaction of ZEB1 with the deubiquitinase ubiquitin-specific protease 10 (USP10) was identified whereby USP10 modifies ZEB1 ubiquitination and promotes its proteasomal degradation. Regulation of the USP10-ZEB1 interaction by MEK-ERK signaling was shown whereby constitutive activation of ERK can phosphorylate USP10 at Ser236 to impair its interaction with ZEB1 and enable ZEB1 protein stabilization. Stabilized ZEB1 was shown to promote colorectal cancer metastatic colonization in a mouse tail vein injection model. Conversely, MEK-ERK inhibition blocked USP10 phosphorylation and enhanced the USP10-ZEB1 interaction shown to suppress ZEB1-mediated tumor cell migration and metastasis. In conclusion, we demonstrate a novel function of USP10 in the regulation of ZEB1 protein stability and its ability to mediate tumor metastasis in a preclinical model.ImplicationsThe MEK-ERK-regulated interaction of USP10 with ZEB1 can promote the proteasomal degradation of ZEB1 and thereby suppress its demonstrated ability to mediate tumor metastasis.

Usp10 Modulates the Hippo Pathway by Deubiquitinating and Stabilizing the Transcriptional Coactivator Yorkie.

Project description:The Hippo signaling pathway is an evolutionarily conserved regulator that plays important roles in organ size control, homeostasis, and tumorigenesis. As the key effector of the Hippo pathway, Yorkie (Yki) binds to transcription factor Scalloped (Sd) and promotes the expression of target genes, leading to cell proliferation and inhibition of apoptosis. Thus, it is of great significance to understand the regulatory mechanism for Yki protein turnover. Here, we provide evidence that the deubiquitinating enzyme ubiquitin-specific protease 10 (Usp10) binds Yki to counteract Yki ubiquitination and stabilize Yki protein in Drosophila S2 cells. The results in Drosophila wing discs indicate that silence of Usp10 decreases the transcription of target genes of the Hippo pathway by reducing Yki protein. In vivo functional analysis ulteriorly showed that Usp10 upregulates the Yki activity in Drosophila eyes. These findings uncover Usp10 as a novel Hippo pathway modulator and provide a new insight into the regulation of Yki protein stability and activity.

DBC1 Regulates p53 Stability via Inhibition of CBP-Dependent p53 Polyubiquitination.

Project description:The control of p53 protein stability is critical to its tumor suppressor functions. The CREB binding protein (CBP) transcriptional co-activator co-operates with MDM2 to maintain normally low physiological p53 levels in cells via exclusively cytoplasmic E4 polyubiquitination activity. Using mass spectrometry to identify nuclear and cytoplasmic CBP-interacting proteins that regulate compartmentalized CBP E4 activity, we identified deleted in breast cancer 1 (DBC1) as a stoichiometric CBP-interacting protein that negatively regulates CBP-dependent p53 polyubiquitination, stabilizes p53, and augments p53-dependent apoptosis. TCGA analysis demonstrated that solid tumors often retain wild-type p53 alleles in conjunction with DBC1 loss, supporting the hypothesis that DBC1 is selected for disruption during carcinogenesis as a surrogate for p53 functional loss. Because DBC1 maintains p53 stability in the nucleus, where p53 exerts its tumor-suppressive transcriptional function, replacement of DBC1 functionality in DBC1-deleted tumors might enhance p53 function and chemosensitivity for therapeutic benefit.
