Ring finger protein 126 (RNF126) suppresses ionizing radiation-induced p53-binding protein 1 (53BP1) focus formation.

ABSTRACT: Cells have evolved sophisticated mechanisms to maintain genomic integrity in response to DNA damage. Ionizing radiation (IR)-induced DNA damage results in the formation of IR-induced foci (iRIF) in the nucleus. The iRIF formation is part of the DNA damage response (DDR), which is an essential signaling cascade that must be strictly regulated because either the loss of or an augmented DDR leads to loss of genome integrity. Accordingly, negative regulation of the DDR is as critical as its activation. In this study, we have identified ring finger protein 126 (RNF126) as a negative regulator of the DDR from a screen of iRIF containing 53BP1. RNF126 overexpression abolishes not only the formation of 53BP1 iRIF but also of RNF168, FK2, RAP80, and BRCA1. However, the iRIF formation of ?H2AX, MDC1, and RNF8 is maintained, indicating that RNF126 acts between RNF8 and RNF168 during the DDR. In addition, RNF126 overexpression consistently results in the loss of RNF168-mediated H2A monoubiquitination at lysine 13/15 and inhibition of the non-homologous end joining capability. Taken together, our findings reveal that RNF126 is a novel factor involved in the negative regulation of DDR, which is important for sustaining genomic integrity.

Project description:BackgroundHepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the third cause of cancer death in the world, and few molecularly targeted anticancer therapies have been developed to treat it. The E3 ubiquitin ligase RNF152 has been reported to regulate the activity of the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1), induce autophagy and apoptosis. However, the relationship between RNF152 and HCC is unclear.MethodsTranscriptome RNA-sequencing data of HCC samples and normal tissues were used to detect the mRNA expression of RNF152. Luciferase reporter and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays were used to determine the transcriptional regulation of RNF152 in HCC by FoxO1. RNAi, cell proliferation, colony formation and transwell assays were used to determine the in vitro functions of RNF152. Mouse xenograft models were used to study the in vivo effects of RNF152. The immunoprecipitation assay was used to determine the interaction between RNF152 and TSPAN12. The in vivo ubiquitination assay was performed to determine the regulation of TSPAN12 by RNF152.ResultsWe found that RNF152 is significantly down-regulated in clinic HCC samples, and its down-regulation is associated with pool overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) in HCC patients. The transcription factor FoxO1 was significantly positively correlated RNF152 expression in HCC tissues. FoxO1 recognizes a classic insulin response element (IRE) on the RNF152 promoter to regulate its expression in HCC. RNF152 suppressed HCC cell proliferation, clonogenic survival, invasion in vitro, and tumorigenesis in vivo. Mechanistically, RNF152 interacted with TSPAN12 and targeted it for ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation, thereby inhibiting TSPAN12-dependent CXCL6 expression and HCC progression.ConclusionCollectively, our data revealed a tumor suppressor role of RNF152 and a connection between RNF152 and FoxO1 in HCC. Our results support an important role of the FoxO1-RNF152-TSPAN12 axis in the development of HCC. Therapeutic targeting this axis may be an effective means of treating HCC.
