USP7-mediated deubiquitination differentially regulates CSB but not UVSSA upon UV radiation-induced DNA damage.

ABSTRACT: Cockayne syndrome group B (CSB) protein participates in transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair. The stability of CSB is known to be regulated by ubiquitin-specific protease 7 (USP7). Yet, whether USP7 acts as a deubiquitinating enzyme for CSB is not clear. Here, we demonstrate that USP7 deubiquitinates CSB to maintain its levels after ultraviolet (UV)-induced DNA damage. While both CSB and UV-stimulated scaffold protein A (UVSSA) exhibit a biphasic decrease and recovery upon UV irradiation, only CSB recovery depends on USP7, which physically interacts with and deubiquitinates CSB. Meanwhile, CSB overexpression stabilizes UVSSA, but decrease UVSSA's presence in nuclease-releasable/soluble chromatin, and increase the presence of ubiquitinated UVSSA in insoluble chromatin alongside CSB-ubiquitin conjugates. Remarkably, CSB overexpression also decreases CSB association with USP7 and UVSSA in soluble chromatin. UVSSA exists in several ubiquitinated forms, of which mono-ubiquitinated form and other ubiquitinated UVSSA forms are detectable upon 6xHistidine tag-based purification. The ubiquitinated UVSSA forms, however, are not cleavable by USP7 in vitro. Furthermore, USP7 disruption does not affect RNA synthesis but decreases the recovery of RNA synthesis following UV exposure. These results reveal a role of USP7 as a CSB deubiquitinating enzyme for fine-tuning the process of TC-NER in human cells.

Deubiquitination of Ci/Gli by Usp7/HAUSP Regulates Hedgehog Signaling.

Project description:Hedgehog (Hh) signaling plays essential roles in animal development and tissue homeostasis, and its misregulation causes congenital diseases and cancers. Regulation of the ubiquitin/proteasome-mediated proteolysis of Ci/Gli transcription factors is central to Hh signaling, but whether deubiquitinase is involved in this process remains unknown. Here, we show that Hh stimulates the binding of a ubiquitin-specific protease Usp7 to Ci, which positively regulates Hh signaling activity through inhibiting Ci ubiquitination and degradation mediated by both Slimb-Cul1 and Hib-Cul3 E3 ligases. Furthermore, we find that Usp7 forms a complex with GMP-synthetase (GMPS) to promote Hh pathway activity. Finally, we show that the mammalian counterpart of Usp7, HAUSP, positively regulates Hh signaling by modulating Gli ubiquitination and stability. Our findings reveal a conserved mechanism by which Ci/Gli is stabilized by a deubiquitination enzyme and identify Usp7/HUASP as a critical regulator of Hh signaling and potential therapeutic target for Hh-related cancers.

The cooperative action of CSB, CSA, and UVSSA target TFIIH to DNA damage-stalled RNA polymerase II.

Project description:The response to DNA damage-stalled RNA polymerase II (RNAPIIo) involves the assembly of the transcription-coupled repair (TCR) complex on actively transcribed strands. The function of the TCR proteins CSB, CSA and UVSSA and the manner in which the core DNA repair complex, including transcription factor IIH (TFIIH), is recruited are largely unknown. Here, we define the assembly mechanism of the TCR complex in human isogenic knockout cells. We show that TCR is initiated by RNAPIIo-bound CSB, which recruits CSA through a newly identified CSA-interaction motif (CIM). Once recruited, CSA facilitates the association of UVSSA with stalled RNAPIIo. Importantly, we find that UVSSA is the key factor that recruits the TFIIH complex in a manner that is stimulated by CSB and CSA. Together these findings identify a sequential and highly cooperative assembly mechanism of TCR proteins and reveal the mechanism for TFIIH recruitment to DNA damage-stalled RNAPIIo to initiate repair.

Ubiquitination-deubiquitination by the TRIM27-USP7 complex regulates tumor necrosis factor alpha-induced apoptosis.

Project description:Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-?) plays a role in apoptosis and proliferation in multiple types of cells, and defects in TNF-?-induced apoptosis are associated with various autoimmune diseases. Here, we show that TRIM27, a tripartite motif (TRIM) protein containing RING finger, B-box, and coiled-coil domains, positively regulates TNF-?-induced apoptosis. Trim27-deficient mice are resistant to TNF-?-d-galactosamine-induced hepatocyte apoptosis. Trim27-deficient mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) are also resistant to TNF-?-cycloheximide-induced apoptosis. TRIM27 forms a complex with and ubiquitinates the ubiquitin-specific protease USP7, which deubiquitinates receptor-interacting protein 1 (RIP1), resulting in the positive regulation of TNF-?-induced apoptosis. Our findings indicate that the ubiquitination-deubiquitination cascade mediated by the TRIM27-USP7 complex plays an important role in TNF-?-induced apoptosis.

Nuclear Receptor Coactivator NCOA3 Regulates UV Radiation-Induced DNA Damage and Melanoma Susceptibility.

Project description:Melanoma occurs as a consequence of inherited susceptibility to the disease and exposure to UV radiation (UVR) and is characterized by uncontrolled cellular proliferation and a high mutational load. The precise mechanisms by which UVR contributes to the development of melanoma remain poorly understood. Here we show that activation of nuclear receptor coactivator 3 (NCOA3) promotes melanomagenesis through regulation of UVR sensitivity, cell-cycle progression, and circumvention of the DNA damage response (DDR). Downregulation of NCOA3 expression, either by genetic silencing or small-molecule inhibition, significantly suppressed melanoma proliferation in melanoma cell lines and patient-derived xenografts. NCOA3 silencing suppressed expression of xeroderma pigmentosum C and increased melanoma cell sensitivity to UVR. Suppression of NCOA3 expression led to activation of DDR effectors and reduced expression of cyclin B1, resulting in G2-M arrest and mitotic catastrophe. A SNP in NCOA3 (T960T) reduced NCOA3 protein expression and was associated with decreased melanoma risk, given a significantly lower prevalence in a familial melanoma cohort than in a control cohort without cancer. Overexpression of wild-type NCOA3 promoted melanocyte survival following UVR and was accompanied by increased levels of UVR-induced DNA damage, both of which were attenuated by overexpression of NCOA3 (T960T). These results describe NCOA3-regulated pathways by which melanoma can develop, with germline NCOA3 polymorphisms enabling enhanced melanocyte survival in the setting of UVR exposure, despite an increased mutational burden. They also identify NCOA3 as a novel therapeutic target for melanoma. SIGNIFICANCE: This study explores NCOA3 as a regulator of the DDR and a therapeutic target in melanoma, where activation of NCOA3 contributes to melanoma development following exposure to ultraviolet light.

UV radiation-induced DNA damage

Project description:DNA damage caused by UV radiation initiates cellular recovery mechanisms, which involve activation of DNA damage response pathways, cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. To assess cellular transcriptional responses to UVC-induced DNA damage we compared time course responses of human skin fibroblasts to low and high doses of UVC radiation known to induce a transient cellular replicative arrest or apoptosis, respectively. UVC radiation elicited >3-fold changes in 460 out of 12,000 transcripts and 89% of these represented downregulated transcripts. Only 5% of the regulated genes were common to both low and high doses of radiation. Cells inflicted with a low dose of UVC exhibited transcription profiles demonstrating transient regulation followed by recovery, whereas the responses were persistent after the high dose. A detailed clustering analysis and functional classification of the targets implied regulation of biologically divergent responses and suggested involvement of transcriptional and translational machinery, inflammatory, anti-proliferative and anti-angiogenic responses. The data support the notion that UVC radiation induces prominent, dose-dependent downregulation of transcription. However, the data strongly suggest that transcriptional repression is also target gene selective. Furthermore, the results demonstrate that dose-dependent induction of cell cycle arrest and apoptosis by UVC radiation are transcriptionally highly distinct responses. Keywords: other

Regulation of XPC deubiquitination by USP11 in repair of UV-induced DNA damage.

Project description:Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is the most versatile DNA repair pathway for removing DNA damage caused by UV radiation and many environmental carcinogens. NER is essential for suppressing tumorigenesis in the skin, lungs and brain. Although the core NER proteins have been identified and characterized, molecular regulation of NER remains poorly understood. Here we show that ubiquitin-specific peptidase 11 (USP11) positively regulates NER by deubiquitinating xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group C (XPC) and promoting its retention at the DNA damage sites. In addition, UV irradiation induces both USP11 recruitment to the chromatin and USP11 interaction with XPC in an XPC-ubiquitination-dependent manner. Furthermore, we found that USP11 is down-regulated in chronically UV-exposed mouse skin and in skin tumors from mice and humans. Our findings indicate that USP11 plays an important role in maintaining NER capacity, and suggest that USP11 acts as a tumor suppressor via its role in DNA repair.

UVSSA and USP7: new players regulating transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair in human cells.

Project description:Transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair (TC-NER) specifically removes DNA damage located in actively transcribed genes. Defects in TC-NER are associated with several human disorders, including Cockayne syndrome (CS) and ultraviolet (UV)-sensitive syndrome (UVSS). Using exome sequencing, and genetic and proteomic approaches, three recent studies have identified mutations in the UVSSA gene as being responsible for UVSS-A. These findings suggest a new mechanistic model involving UV-stimulated scaffold protein A (UVSSA) and the ubiquitin-specific protease 7 (USP7) in the fate of stalled RNA polymerase II during TC-NER, and provide insights into the diverse clinical features of CS and UVSS.

DNA damage-specific deubiquitination regulates Rad18 functions to suppress mutagenesis.

Project description:Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) lesions encountered during replication are often bypassed using DNA damage tolerance (DDT) pathways to avoid prolonged fork stalling and allow for completion of DNA replication. Rad18 is a central E3 ubiquitin ligase in DDT, which exists in a monoubiquitinated (Rad18•Ub) and nonubiquitinated form in human cells. We find that Rad18 is deubiquitinated when cells are treated with methyl methanesulfonate or hydrogen peroxide. The ubiquitinated form of Rad18 does not interact with SNF2 histone linker plant homeodomain RING helicase (SHPRH) or helicase-like transcription factor, two downstream E3 ligases needed to carry out error-free bypass of DNA lesions. Instead, it interacts preferentially with the zinc finger domain of another, nonubiquitinated Rad18 and may inhibit Rad18 function in trans. Ubiquitination also prevents Rad18 from localizing to sites of DNA damage, inducing proliferating cell nuclear antigen monoubiquitination, and suppressing mutagenesis. These data reveal a new role for monoubiquitination in controlling Rad18 function and suggest that damage-specific deubiquitination promotes a switch from Rad18•Ub-Rad18 complexes to the Rad18-SHPRH complexes necessary for error-free lesion bypass in cells.

UVSSA, UBP12, and RDO2/TFIIS Contribute to Arabidopsis UV Tolerance.

Project description:Plant DNA is damaged by exposure to solar radiation, which includes ultraviolet (UV) rays. UV damaged DNA is repaired either by photolyases, using visible light energy, or by nucleotide excision repair (NER), also known as dark repair. NER consists of two subpathways: global genomic repair (GGR), which repairs untranscribed DNA throughout the genome, and transcription-coupled repair (TCR), which repairs transcribed DNA. In mammals, CSA, CSB, UVSSA, USP7, and TFIIS have been implicated in TCR. Arabidopsis homologs of CSA (AtCSA-1/2) and CSB (CHR8) have previously been shown to contribute to UV tolerance. Here we examine the role of Arabidopsis homologs of UVSSA, USP7 (UBP12/13), and TFIIS (RDO2) in UV tolerance. We find that loss of function alleles of UVSSA, UBP12, and RDO2 exhibit increased UV sensitivity in both seedlings and adults. UV sensitivity in atcsa-1, uvssa, and ubp12 mutants is specific to dark conditions, consistent with a role in NER. Interestingly, chr8 mutants exhibit UV sensitivity in both light and dark conditions, suggesting that the Arabidopsis CSB homolog may play a role in both NER and light repair. Overall our results indicate a conserved role for UVSSA, USP7 (UBP12), and TFIIS (RDO2) in TCR.
