Structural basis of allosteric activation of sterile ? motif and histidine-aspartate domain-containing protein 1 (SAMHD1) by nucleoside triphosphates.

ABSTRACT: Sterile ? motif and histidine-aspartate domain-containing protein 1 (SAMHD1) plays a critical role in inhibiting HIV infection, curtailing the pool of dNTPs available for reverse transcription of the viral genome. Recent structural data suggested a compelling mechanism for the regulation of SAMHD1 enzymatic activity and revealed dGTP-induced association of two inactive dimers into an active tetrameric enzyme. Here, we present the crystal structures of SAMHD1 catalytic core (residues 113-626) tetramers, complexed with mixtures of nucleotides, including dGTP/dATP, dGTP/dCTP, dGTP/dTTP, and dGTP/dUTP. The combined structural and biochemical data provide insight into dNTP promiscuity at the secondary allosteric site and how enzymatic activity is modulated. In addition, we present biochemical analyses of GTP-induced SAMHD1 full-length tetramerization and the structure of SAMHD1 catalytic core tetramer in complex with GTP/dATP, revealing the structural basis of GTP-mediated SAMHD1 activation. Altogether, the data presented here advance our understanding of SAMHD1 function during cellular homeostasis.

Project description:Abstract Introduction: SAMD9 variants are associated with colon, breast and lung tumors. SAMD9 mutations result in adrenal hypoplasia, suggesting its importance in adrenal development. We investigated the contribution of abnormal expression of SAMD9 and its homologous, SAMD9L, to the pathogenesis of pediatric adrenocortical tumors (pACT) Objective: To evaluate the involvement of SAMD9 and SAMD9L in normal human adrenal cortex development and adrenocortical tumorigenesis, as well as to evaluate their association with tumor presentation and patient outcome. Methods: pACT samples (n= 72), normal pediatric adrenal cortices (n= 11), and normal fetal and post-natal adrenals (20 weeks of gestation to 10 years of age; n= 51) were enrolled. Protein expression of SAMD9 (immunohistochemistry) and SAMD9/SAMD9L mRNA levels were evaluated (qPCR). The associations between SAMD9/SAMD9L expression in pACT with tumor presentation (P53 p.R337H genotype and metastasis occurrence) and patient outcome (Overall (OS) and Disease-Free Survival) were analyzed. In silico, publicly available data from pediatric patients with ACT available in the Gene Expression Omnibus were used to evaluate the aforementioned associations with SAMD9 (GSE76021) and SAMD9L (GSE76019) mRNA levels. In vitro, SAMD9 subcellular localization pattern was investigated in the ACT cell line NCI-H295R (immunofluorescence). Results: Nuclear and cytoplasmic SAMD9 expression was observed throughout all different phases of adrenal development evaluated. However, in pACT samples, 26% presented nuclear and 86% cytoplasmic immunostaining. In line, NCI-H295R cells presented mostly cytoplasmic SAMD9 immunostaining under basal conditions. No differential expression was observed between SAMD9 or SAMD9L mRNA levels in pACT and in normal pediatric adrenals. Moreover, no association between SAMD9 immunostaining, SAMD9 or SAMD9L mRNA levels, tumor presentation and patient outcome were observed in our cohort, nor in the in silico evaluation. Conclusion: SAMD9 is nuclear and cytoplasmic expressed during adrenal cortex adrenal development and its loss of function is associated with adrenal hypoplasia. On the other hand, SAMD9 is mostly cytoplasmic expressed in pACT and immortalized NCI-H295R cells. No differential expression of SAMD9 nor its counterpart SAMD9L mRNA were associated with tumor presentation and pediatric patient outcome.
