PARP1 represses PAP and inhibits polyadenylation during heat shock.

ABSTRACT: The 3' ends of most eukaryotic mRNAs are produced by an endonucleolytic cleavage followed by synthesis of a poly(A) tail. Poly(A) polymerase (PAP), the enzyme that catalyzes the formation of the tail, is subject to tight regulation involving several posttranslational modifications. Here we show that the enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) modifies PAP and regulates its activity both in vitro and in vivo. PARP1 binds to and modifies PAP by poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (PARylation) in vitro, which inhibits PAP activity. In vivo we show that PAP is PARylated during heat shock, leading to inhibition of polyadenylation in a PARP1-dependent manner. The observed inhibition reflects reduced RNA binding affinity of PARylated PAP in vitro and decreased PAP association with non-heat shock protein-encoding genes in vivo. Our results provide direct evidence that PARylation can control processing of mRNA precursors, and also identify PARP1 as a regulator of polyadenylation during thermal stress.

Project description:When hookworm infective L3s infect their mammalian host, they undergo a temperature shift from that of the ambient environment to that of their endothermic host. Additionally, L3s living in the environment can be exposed to temperature extremes associated with weather fluctuations. The heat shock response (HSR) is a conserved response to heat shock and other stress that involves the expression of protective heat shock proteins (HSPs). The HSR is controlled by heat shock factor-1 (HSF-1), a conserved transcription factor that binds to a heat shock element in the promoter of HSPs, causing their expression. HSF-1 is negatively regulated in part by a HSF binding protein (HSB-1) that binds to and removes HSF-1 trimers bound to HSP gene promoters, resulting in attenuation of the HSR. Herein we describe an HSB-1 orthologue, Ac-HSB-1, from the hookworm Ancylostoma caninum. The Ac-hsb-1 cDNA encodes a 79 amino acid protein that is 71% identical to the Caenorhabditis elegans HSB-1, and is predicted to share the characteristic coiled-coil structural motif comprised of two interacting alpha helices. Recombinant Ac-HSB-1 immunoprecipitated Ce-HSF-1 expressed in mammalian cells that had been heat shocked for 1h at 42°C, but not from cells incubated at 37°C, indicating that HSB-1 only bound to the active DNA binding form of HSF-1. Expression of Ac-hsb-1 transcripts decreased following 1h of heat shock, but increased when L3s were incubated at 37°C for 1h. Activation of hookworm L3s induces a five-sixfold increase in Ac-hsb-1 expression that peaks at 12h, coincident with L3 feeding, but that subsequently decreases to two-threefold above control at 24h. Recombinant Ac-HSB-1 immunoprecipitates greater amounts of 70 and 40kDa proteins from extracts of activated L3s than from non-activated L3s. We propose that an increase in Ac-hsb-1 levels early in activation allows feeding to resume, but that a subsequent decrease in expression permits a HSR that protects non-developing L3s at host-like temperatures. Further investigations of the HSR will clarify the role of HSB-1 and HSF-1 in hookworm infection.
