Deubiquitinating enzyme mutagenesis screens identify a USP43-dependent HIF-1 transcriptional response

ABSTRACT: The ubiquitination and proteasome-mediated degradation of hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) is central to metazoan oxygen-sensing, but the involvement of deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs) in HIF signalling is less clear. Here, we conduct CRISPR/Cas9 mutagenesis screens using a bespoke DUBs sgRNA library to determine how DUBs are involved in HIF signalling. Alongside defining DUBs involved in HIF activation or suppression, we identify USP43 as a DUB required for efficient activation of a HIF response. USP43 is hypoxia-regulated and selectively associates with the HIF-1alpha isoform. While USP43 does not alter HIF-1alpha stability, it facilitates HIF-1 nuclear accumulation and binding to its target genes. Mechanistically, USP43 associates with 14-3-3 proteins in a hypoxia- and phosphorylation-dependent manner to increase the nuclear pool of HIF-1. Together, our results highlight the multifunctionality of DUBs, illustrating that they can provide important signalling functions alongside their catalytic roles.

Deubiquitinating enzyme mutagenesis screens identify a USP43 driven HIF-1 transcriptional response [CRISPR]

Project description:The ubiquitination and proteasome-mediated degradation of Hypoxia Inducible Factors (HIFs) is central to metazoan oxygen-sensing, but the involvement of deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs) in HIF signalling is less clear. Here, using a bespoke DUBs sgRNA library we conduct CRISPR/Cas9 mutagenesis screens to determine how DUBs are involved in HIF signalling. Alongside defining DUBs involved in HIF activation or suppression, we identify USP43 as a DUB required for efficient activation of a HIF response. USP43 is hypoxia regulated and selectively associates with the HIF-1 isoform, and while USP43 does not alter HIF-1 stability, it facilitates HIF-1 nuclear accumulation and binding to its target genes. Mechanistically, USP43 associates with 14-3-3 proteins in a hypoxia-dependent manner to increase the nuclear pool of HIF-1, independently of DUB activity. Together, our results unveil the DUB landscape in HIF signalling, and highlight the multifunctionality of DUBs, illustrating that they can provide important signalling roles outside of their catalytic activity.

VHL protein-interacting deubiquitinating enzyme 2 deubiquitinates and stabilizes HIF-1alpha.

Project description:Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1alpha is a short-lived protein and is ubiquitinated and degraded through the von Hippel-Lindau protein (pVHL)-E3 ubiquitin ligase pathway at normoxia. Deubiquitination, by reversing ubiquitination, has been recognized as an important regulatory step in ubiquitination-related processes. Here, we show that pVHL-interacting deubiquitinating enzyme 2, VDU2, but not VDU1, interacts with HIF-1alpha. VDU2 can specifically deubiquitinate and stabilize HIF-1alpha and, therefore, increase expression of HIF-1alpha targeted genes, such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). These findings suggest that ubiquitination of HIF-1alpha is a dynamic process and that ubiquitinated HIF-1alpha might be rescued from degradation by VDU2 through deubiquitination. Although pVHL functions as a master control for HIF-1alpha stabilization, as pVHL-E3 ligase mediates the ubiquitination of both HIF-1alpha and VDU2, the balance between the pVHL-mediated ubiquitination and VDU2-mediated deubiquitination of HIF-1alpha provides another level of control for HIF-1alpha stabilization.

Replication-incompetent gammaretroviral and lentiviral vector-based insertional mutagenesis screens identify prostate cancer progression genes.

Project description:Replication-incompetent gammaretroviral (?RV) and lentiviral (LV) vectors have both been used in insertional mutagenesis screens to identify cancer drivers. In this approach the vectors stably integrate in the host cell genome and induce cancers by dysregulating nearby genes. The cells that contain a retroviral vector provirus in or near a proto-oncogene or tumor suppressor are preferentially enriched in a tumor. ?RV and LV vectors have different integration profiles and genotoxic potential, making them potentially complementary tools for insertional mutagenesis screens. We performed screens using both ?RV and LV vectors to identify driver genes that mediate progression of androgen-independent prostate cancer (AIPC) using a xenotransplant mouse model. Vector transduced LNCaP cells were injected orthotopically into the prostate gland of immunodeficient mice. Mice that developed tumors were castrated to create an androgen-deficient environment and metastatic tumors that developed were analyzed. A high-throughput modified genomic sequencing PCR (MGS-PCR) approach identified the positions of vector integrations in these metastatic tumors. OR2A14, FER1L6, TAOK3, MAN1A2, MBNL2, SERBP1, PLEKHA2, SPTAN1, ADAMTS1, SLC30A5, ABCC1, SLC7A1 and SLC25A24 were identified as candidate prostate cancer (PC) progression genes. TAOK3 and ABCC1 expression in PC patients predicted the risk of recurrence after androgen deprivation therapy. Our data shows that ?RV and LV vectors are complementary approaches to identify cancer driver genes which may be promising potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets.

Context-dependent function of the deubiquitinating enzyme USP9X in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most aggressive and deadly malignancies. Recently, the deubiquitinating protease USP9X has been shown to behave as an oncogene in a number of neoplasms, including those of breast, brain, colon, esophagus and lung, as well as KRAS wild-type PDAC. However, other studies suggest that USP9X may function as a tumor-suppressor in a murine PDAC model when USP9X expression is depleted during early pancreatic development. To address the conflicting findings surrounding the role of USP9X in PDAC, we examined the effects of knocking down USP9X in five human PDAC cell lines (BxPC3, Capan1, CD18, Hs766T, and S2-013). We demonstrate that knocking down USP9X in each of the PDAC cell lines reduces their anchorage-dependent growth. Using an inducible shRNA system to knock down USP9X in both BxPC3 and Capan1 cells, we also determined that USP9X is necessary for the anchorage-independent growth. In addition, knockdown of USP9X alters the cell cycle profile of BxPC3 cells and increases their invasive capacity. Finally, we show that an inhibitor of deubiquitinating proteases, WP1130, induces significant cytotoxicity in each of the five PDAC cell lines tested. Overall, our work and the work of others indicate that the function and role of USP9X is highly context-dependent. Although USP9X may function as a tumor-suppressor during the establishment of PDAC, data presented here argue that USP9X promotes cell growth in advanced PDAC cells when PDAC is typically diagnosed. Hence, USP9X may be a promising therapeutic target for the treatment of advanced PDAC.

Regulation of the deubiquitinating enzyme CYLD by IkappaB kinase gamma-dependent phosphorylation.

Project description:Tumor suppressor CYLD is a deubiquitinating enzyme (DUB) that inhibits the ubiquitination of key signaling molecules, including tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor-associated factor 2 (TRAF2). However, how the function of CYLD is regulated remains unknown. Here we provide evidence that inducible phosphorylation of CYLD is an important mechanism of its regulation. Under normal conditions, CYLD dominantly suppresses the ubiquitination of TRAF2. In response to cellular stimuli, CYLD undergoes rapid and transient phosphorylation, which is required for signal-induced TRAF2 ubiquitination and activation of downstream signaling events. Interestingly, the CYLD phosphorylation requires IkappaB kinase gamma (IKKgamma) and can be induced by IKK catalytic subunits. These findings suggest that CYLD serves as a novel target of IKK and that the site-specific phosphorylation of CYLD regulates its signaling function.

The deubiquitinating enzyme USP24 is a regulator of the UV damage response.

Project description:Regulation of p53 by ubiquitination and deubiquitination is important for its function. In this study, we demonstrate that USP24 deubiquitinates p53 in human cells. Functional USP24 is required for p53 stabilization, and p53 destabilization in USP24-depleted cells can be corrected by the forced expression of USP24. We show that USP24 depletion renders cells resistant to apoptosis after UV irradiation, consistent with the requirement of USP24 for p53 stabilization and PUMA activation in vivo. Additionally, purified USP24 protein is able to cleave ubiquitinated p53 in vitro. Importantly, cells with USP24 depletion exhibited significantly elevated mutation rates at the endogenous HPRT locus, implying an important role for USP24 in maintaining genome stability. Our data reveal that the USP24 deubiquitinase regulates the DNA damage response by directly targeting the p53 tumor suppressor.

USP19 deubiquitinating enzyme inhibits muscle cell differentiation by suppressing unfolded-protein response signaling.

Project description:The USP19 deubiquitinating enzyme modulates the expression of myogenin and myofibrillar proteins in L6 muscle cells. This raised the possibility that USP19 might regulate muscle cell differentiation. We therefore tested the effects of adenoviral-mediated overexpression or small interfering RNA (siRNA)-mediated silencing of either the cytoplasmic or endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-localized isoforms of USP19. Only the ER-localized isoform of USP19 (USP19-ER) modulated myoblast fusion as well as the expression of myogenin and myofibrillar proteins, and these effects were also dependent on USP19 catalytic activity. USP19-ER inhibited muscle cell differentiation and the induction of CHOP, a transcription factor in the unfolded-protein response (UPR) that is activated during differentiation. Inducing the UPR by creating mild ER stress with thapsigargin was able to reverse the defect in myoblast fusion caused by the overexpression of USP19-ER, suggesting strongly that USP19 exerts its effects on fusion through its effects on UPR signaling. USP19 also functions similarly in vivo, as USP19(-/-) mice display improved muscle regeneration concomitant with enhanced expression of CHOP. Collectively these results implicate a deubiquitinating enzyme as a regulator of the UPR. They also suggest that inhibition of USP19 may be a therapeutic approach for the enhancement of muscle growth following injury.
