XPC promotes MDM2-mediated degradation of the p53 tumor suppressor.

ABSTRACT: Although ubiquitin receptor Rad23 has been implicated in bringing ubiquitylated p53 to the proteasome, how Rad23 recognizes p53 remains unclear. We demonstrate that XPC, a Rad23-binding protein, regulates p53 turnover. p53 protein in XPC-deficient cells remains ubiquitylated, but its association with the proteasome is drastically reduced, indicating that XPC regulates a postubiquitylation event. Furthermore, we found that XPC participates in the MDM2-mediated p53 degradation pathway via direct interaction with MDM2. XPC W690S pathogenic mutant is specifically defective for MDM2 binding and p53 degradation. p53 is known to become stabilized following UV irradiation but can be rendered unstable by XPC overexpression, underscoring a critical role of XPC in p53 regulation. Elucidation of the proteolytic role of XPC in cancer cells will help to unravel the detailed mechanisms underlying the coordination of DNA repair and proteolysis.

BAI1 Suppresses Medulloblastoma Formation by Protecting p53 from Mdm2-Mediated Degradation.

Project description:Adhesion G protein-coupled receptors (ADGRs) encompass 33 human transmembrane proteins with long N termini involved in cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. We show the ADGRB1 gene, which encodes Brain-specific angiogenesis inhibitor 1 (BAI1), is epigenetically silenced in medulloblastomas (MBs) through a methyl-CpG binding protein MBD2-dependent mechanism. Knockout of Adgrb1 in mice augments proliferation of cerebellar granule neuron precursors, and leads to accelerated tumor growth in the Ptch1+/- transgenic MB mouse model. BAI1 prevents Mdm2-mediated p53 polyubiquitination, and its loss substantially reduces p53 levels. Reactivation of BAI1/p53 signaling axis by a brain-permeable MBD2 pathway inhibitor suppresses MB growth in vivo. Altogether, our data define BAI1's physiological role in tumorigenesis and directly couple an ADGR to cancer formation.

NPM1 promotes nasopharyngeal carcinoma metastasis and stemness by recruiting Mdm2 to induce the ubiquitination-mediated degradation of p53.

Project description:Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is clinically challenging due to the development of distant metastasis following initial therapy. Therefore, it is necessary to elucidate the mechanisms underlying metastases to develop novel therapeutic strategies. Nucleophosmin 1 (NPM1) has been directly linked to the development of human tumors and may have both tumor-suppressing and oncogenic properties. Although NPM1 is often overexpressed in solid tumors of various histopathological origins, its specific function in mediating the development of NPC is still unknown. Here, we investigated the role of NPM1 in NPC and discovered that NPM1 was elevated in clinical NPC samples and served as a predictor of the worst prognosis in NPC patients. Furthermore, the upregulation of NPM1 promoted the migration and the cancer stemness of NPC both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistic analyses revealed that the E3 ubiquitin ligase Mdm2 was recruited by NPM1 to induce the ubiquitination-mediated proteasomal degradation of p53. Ultimately, knockdown of NPM1 suppressed the stemness and EMT signals. In summation, this study demonstrated the role and the underlying molecular mechanism of NPM1 in NPC, providing the evidence for the clinical application of NPM1 as a therapeutic target for the treatment of patients with NPC.

Hedgehog signaling overrides p53-mediated tumor suppression by activating Mdm2.

Project description:The hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway regulates the development of many organs in mammals, and activation of this pathway is widely observed in human cancers. Although it is known that Hh signaling activates the expression of genes involved in cell growth, the precise role of the Hh pathway in cancer development is still unclear. Here, we show that constitutively activated mutants of Smoothened (Smo), a transducer of the Hh signaling pathway, inhibit the accumulation of the tumor suppressor protein p53. This inhibition was also observed in the presence of Hh ligand or with the overexpression of the transcription factors Gli1 and Gli2, downstream effectors of Smo, indicating that this inhibition is specific for the Hh pathway. We also report that Smo mutants augment p53 binding to the E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase Mdm2 and promote p53 ubiquitination. Furthermore, Hh signaling induced the phosphorylation of human Mdm2 protein on serines 166 and 186, which are activating phosphorylation sites of Mdm2. Smo mutants enhanced the proliferation of mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) while inducing a DNA-damage response. Moreover, Smo partially inhibited p53-dependent apoptosis and cell growth inhibition in oncogene-expressing MEFs. We also found that accumulation of p53 is inhibited by Hh signaling in several human cancer cell lines. Therefore, the Hh pathway may be a powerful accelerator of oncogenesis by activating cell proliferation and inhibiting the p53-mediated anti-cancer barrier induced by oncogenic stress.

Proteasome activator PA28 gamma regulates p53 by enhancing its MDM2-mediated degradation.

Project description:Downregulation of p53 by MDM2-mediated proteasomal degradation makes cells resistant to apoptosis. The MDM2-p53 interaction is well characterized, but the mechanisms that regulate the interaction are not well understood. Here, we show that PA28gamma, a proteasome activator that inhibits apoptosis and promotes cell cycle progression through unknown mechanisms, exerts an effect as a cofactor in the MDM2-p53 interaction. The polymer form of PA28gamma interacts with both MDM2 and p53 proteins and facilitates their physical interaction. This promotes ubiquitination- and MDM2-dependent proteasomal degradation of p53, limiting its accumulation and resulting in inhibited apoptosis after DNA damage. Elimination of endogenous PA28gamma in human cancer cells abrogates MDM2-mediated p53 degradation, increases the activity of p53, and enhances apoptosis. These findings reveal the mechanism by which PA28gamma affects apoptosis and proliferation. Manipulation of the level of PA28gamma, an approach that would regulate the cellular content of p53, may improve the efficacy of current cancer therapies.

cIAP2 represses IKKα/β-mediated activation of MDM2 to prevent p53 degradation.

Project description:Cellular inhibitor of apoptosis proteins (cIAP1 and cIAP2) function to prevent apoptosis and are often overexpressed in various cancers. However, mutations in cIAP1/2 can activate the alternative NFκB pathway through IκBα-kinase-α (IKKα) and are associated with hematopoetic malignancies. In the current study, we found that knockdown of cIAP2 in human mammary epithelial cells resulted in activation of MDM2 through increased SUMOylation and profound reduction of the pool of MDM2 not phosphorylated at Ser166. cIAP2 siRNA markedly decreased p53 levels, which were rescued by addition of the MDM2 inhibitor, Nutlin3a. An IAP antagonist, which induces cIAP degradation, transiently increased MDM2 mRNA. Simultaneous transfection of siRNA for cIAP2 and IKKα reduced MDM2 protein, while expression of a kinase-dead IKKβ strongly increased non-Ser166 P-MDM2. Inhibition of either IKKα or -β partially rescued p53 levels, while concomitant IKKα/β inhibition fully rescued p53 after cIAP2 knockdown. Surprisingly, IKKα knockdown alone increased SUMO-MDM2, suggesting that in the absence of activation, IKKα can prevent MDM2 SUMOylation. cIAP2 knockdown disrupted the interaction between the MDM2 SUMO ligase, PIAS1 and IKKα. Partial knockdown of cIAP2 cooperated with (V12) H-ras-transfected mammary epithelial cells to enhance colony formation. In summary, our data identify a novel role for cIAP2 in maintaining wild-type p53 levels by preventing both an NFκB-mediated increase and IKKα/-β-dependent transcriptional and post-translational modifications of MDM2. Thus, mutations or reductions in cIAP2 could contribute to cancer promotion, in part, through downregulation of p53.

ERK promotes tumorigenesis by inhibiting FOXO3a via MDM2-mediated degradation.

Project description:The RAS-ERK pathway is known to play a pivotal role in differentiation, proliferation and tumour progression. Here, we show that Erk downregulates Forkhead box O 3a (FOXO3a) by directly interacting with and phosphorylating FOXO3a at Ser 294, Ser 344 and Ser 425, which consequently promotes cell proliferation and tumorigenesis. The ERK-phosphorylated FOXO3a degrades via an MDM2-mediated ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. However, the non-phosphorylated FOXO3a mutant is resistant to the interaction and degradation by murine double minute 2 (MDM2), thereby resulting in a strong inhibition of cell proliferation and tumorigenicity. Taken together, our study elucidates a novel pathway in cell growth and tumorigenesis through negative regulation of FOXO3a by RAS-ERK and MDM2.

MDM2-Mediated p21 Proteasomal Degradation Promotes Fluoride Toxicity in Ameloblasts.

Project description:Fluoride overexposure is an environmental health hazard and can cause enamel and skeletal fluorosis. Previously we demonstrated that fluoride increased acetylated-p53 and its downstream target p21 in ameloblast-derived LS8 cells. However, p21 function in fluoride toxicity is not well characterized. This study seeks to gain a better understanding of how p53 down-stream mediators, p21 and MDM2, respond to fluoride toxicity. LS8 cells were treated with NaF with/without MG-132 (proteasome inhibitor) or Nutlin-3a (MDM2 antagonist). NaF treatment for 2-6 h increased phospho-p21, which can inhibit apoptosis. However, phospho-p21 and p21 were decreased by NaF at 24 h, even though p21 mRNA was significantly increased at this time point. MG-132 reversed the fluoride-mediated p21 decrease, indicating that fluoride facilitates p21 proteasomal degradation. MG-132 suppressed fluoride-induced caspase-3 cleavage, suggesting that the proteasome plays a pro-apoptotic role in fluoride toxicity. NaF increased phospho-MDM2 in vitro and in mouse ameloblasts in vivo. Nutlin-3a suppressed NaF-mediated MDM2-p21 binding to reverse p21 degradation which increased phospho-p21. This suppressed apoptosis after 24 h NaF treatment. These results suggest that MDM2-mediated p21 proteasomal degradation with subsequent phospho-p21 attenuation contributes to fluoride-induced apoptosis. Inhibition of MDM2-mediated p21 degradation may be a potential therapeutic target to mitigate fluoride toxicity.

LncRNA NRON Promotes Tumorigenesis by Enhancing MDM2 Activity Towards Tumor Suppressor Substrates

Project description:The E3 ligase MDM2 promotes tumor growth and progression by inducing ubiquitin-mediated degradation of P53 and other tumor suppressing proteins. Here, we identified an MDM2-interacting lncRNA NRON, which promotes tumor formation by suppressing both P53-dependent and independent pathways. NRON binds to MDM2 and MDMX (MDM4) via two different stem-loops respectively and induces their heterogenous dimerization, thereby enhancing the E3 ligase activity of MDM2 towards its tumor suppressing substrates, including P53, RB1 and NFAT1, etc. NRON knockdown dramatically inhibits tumor cell growth in vitro and in vivo. More importantly, NRON overexpression promotes oncogenic transformation by inducing anchorage-independent growth in vitro and facilitating tumor formation in immunocompromised mice. Clinically, NRON expression is significantly associated with poor clinical outcome of breast cancer patients. Together, our data uncover a pivotal role of lncRNA that induces malignant transformation of epithelial cells by inhibiting multiple tumor suppressor proteins.

SIRT7 activates p53 by enhancing PCAF-mediated MDM2 degradation to arrest the cell cycle.

Project description:Sirtuin 7 (SIRT7), an NAD+-dependent deacetylase, plays vital roles in energy sensing, but the underlying mechanisms of action remain less clear. Here, we report that SIRT7 is required for p53-dependent cell-cycle arrest during glucose deprivation. We show that SIRT7 directly interacts with p300/CBP-associated factor (PCAF) and the affinity for this interaction increases during glucose deprivation. Upon binding, SIRT7 deacetylates PCAF at lysine 720 (K720), which augments PCAF binding to murine double minute (MDM2), the p53 E3 ubiquitin ligase, leading to accelerated MDM2 degradation. This effect results in upregulated expression of the cell-cycle inhibitor, p21Waf1/Cip1, which further leads to cell-cycle arrest and decreased cell viability. These data highlight the importance of the SIRT7-PCAF interaction in regulating p53 activity and cell-cycle progression during conditions of glucose deprivation. This axis may represent a new avenue to design effective therapeutics based on tumor starvation.

USP7 Enforces Heterochromatinization of p53 Target Promoters by Protecting SUV39H1 from MDM2-Mediated Degradation.

Project description:The H3K9me3 repressive histone conformation of p53 target promoters is abrogated in response to p53 activation by MDM2-mediated SUV39H1 degradation. Here, we present evidence that the USP7 deubiquitinase protects SUV39H1 from MDM2-mediated ubiquitination in the absence of p53 stimulus. USP7 occupies p53 target promoters in unstressed conditions, a process that is abrogated with p53 activation associated with loss of the H3K9me3 mark on these same promoters. Mechanistically, USP7 forms a trimeric complex with MDM2 and SUV39H1, independent of DNA, and modulates MDM2-dependent SUV39H1 ubiquitination. Furthermore, we show that this protective function of USP7 on SUV39H1 is independent of p53. Finally, USP7 blocking cooperates with p53 in inducing apoptosis by enhancing p53 promoter occupancy and dependent transactivation of target genes. These results uncover a layer of the p53 transcriptional program mediated by USP7, which restrains relaxation of local chromatin conformation at p53 target promoters.
