Human antigen R (HuR) SUMOylation controls senescence response in liver cancer

ABSTRACT: The clinical management of liver cancer is challenged by the reduced availability of drugs targeting key signaling pathways and their modest benefits to patients. Senescence induction may represent a strategy for cancer treatment, especially as a combination therapy. The posttranslational modification (PTM) of proteins critically influences many biological processes, including gene expression, cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis, tumor progression, and drug resistance. Herein, we newly discovered that the RNA-binding protein (RBP) Human antigen R (HuR), a hub in liver cancer, is SUMOylated in the tumor sections of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in contrast to the surrounding tissue, as well as in human cell line and mouse models of the disease. SUMOylation of HuR promotes major cancer hallmarks, namely proliferation and invasion, whereas the absence of HuR SUMOylation results in a senescent phenotype with dysfunctional mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Mechanistically, SUMOylation induces a structural rearrangement of the RNA recognition motifs (RRMs) that modulates HuR binding affinity to its target mRNAs further modifying the transcriptomic profile towards hepatic tumor progression.

SIRT3 SUMOylation confers AML chemoresistance via down-regulation of HES1 dependent fatty acid oxidation

Project description:SIRT3 deacetylase is a critical mitochondrial regulator for mitochondrial metabolism reprogramming and ROS production, and is involved in the regulation of chemoresistance in AML. SIRT3 is a SUMOylated protein, with de-SUMOylation by SENP1, resulted in enhancement of its deacetylase activity. However, the molecular mechanism of de-SUMOylation mediated SIRT3 activation, which may lead to reinforced AML chemoresistance, remains poorly understood. In the current study, we demonstrated that SIRT3 SUMOylation was attenuated by cytarabine, and de-SUMOylation prevented SIRT3 from proteasome degradation. SIRT3 de-SUMOylation was capable of reprogramming mitochondrial biogenesis, and subsequently inhibited mitochondrial ROS production. Furthermore, RNA-seq revealed that expression of a collection of genes was altered by SIRT3 de-SUMOylation, among which the transcription factor HES1, a downstream substrates of Notch1 signaling pathway, was significantly downregulated by SIRT3K288R, the de-SUMOylated and constitutively active mutant of SIRT3. HES1-dependent FAO was inhibited by SIRT3 de-SUMOylation. Moreover, cytarabine synergized with the SENP1 inhibitor momodrin-Ic to eradicate AML blasts in vitro and in xenografts mice models. In summary, the current study revealed a novel role of SIRT3 SUMOylation in regulating chemoresistance in AML via HES1-dependent FAO, which may provide a rationale for SIRT3 SUMOylation-targeted intervention to improve the chemotherapies in AML.

SUMOylation Regulates Transcription by the Progesterone Receptor A Isoform in a Target Gene Selective Manner

Project description:Luminal breast cancers express estrogen (ER) and progesterone (PR) receptors, and respond to endocrine therapies. However, some ER+PR+ tumors display intrinsic or acquired resistance, possibly related to PR. Two PR isoforms, PR-A and PR-B, regulate distinct gene subsets that may differentially influence tumor fate. A high PR-A:PR-B ratio is associated with poor prognosis and tamoxifen resistance. We speculate that excessive PR-A marks tumors that will relapse early. Here we address mechanisms by which PR-A regulate transcription, focusing on SUMOylation. We use receptor mutants and synthetic promoter/reporters to show that SUMOylation deficiency or the deSUMOylase SENP1 enhance transcription by PR-A, independent of the receptors’ dimerization interface or DNA binding domain. De-SUMOylation exposes the agonist properties of the antiprogestin RU486. Thus, on synthetic promoters, SUMOylation functions as an independent brake on transcription by PR-A. What about PR-A SUMOylation of endogenous human breast cancer genes? To study these, we used gene expression profiling. Surprisingly, PR-A SUMOylation influences progestin target genes differentially, with some upregulated, others downregulated, and others unaffected. Hormone-independent gene regulation is also PR-A SUMOylation dependent. Several SUMOylated genes were analyzed in clinical breast cancer database. In sum, we show that SUMOylation does not simply repress PR-A. Rather, it regulates PR-A activity in a target selective manner including genes associated with poor prognosis, shortened survival, and metastasis.

Protein SUMOylation in the Drosophila ovary

Project description:Genome regulation involves complex and highly regulated protein interactions that are often mediated through post-translational modifications (PTMs). SUMOylation – the covalent attachment of the small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) – is a conserved PTM in eukaryotes that has been implicated in a number of essential processes such as nuclear import, DNA damage repair, transcriptional control, and chromatin organization. In Drosophila, SUMO is essential for viability and its depletion from the female germline causes infertility associated with global loss of heterochromatin, and illicit upregulation of transposons and lineage-inappropriate genes. However, the specific targets of SUMO and its mechanistic role in different cellular pathways are still poorly understood. Here, we developed a proteomics-based strategy to characterize the SUMOylated proteome in Drosophila that allowed us to identify ~1500 SUMO sites in 843 proteins in the fly ovary. A high confidence set of SUMOylated proteins is highly enriched in factors involved in heterochromatin regulation and the piRNA pathway that represses transposons. Furthermore, SUMOylation of several piRNA pathway proteins occurs in a Piwi-dependent manner, indicating a functional implication of this modification in the cellular response to transposon activity. Together, these data highlight the impact of SUMOylation on epigenetic regulation and reveal an unexpectedly broad role of the SUMO pathway in the cellular defense against genomic parasites. Finally, this work provides a valuable resource and a system that can be adapted to the study of SUMOylation in other Drosophila tissues.

Probing the Roles of SUMOylation in Cancer Cell Biology Using a Selective SAE inhibitor

Project description:Small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) family proteins regulate target protein functions by post-translational modification. However, a potent and selective inhibitor to target the SUMO pathway has been lacking. Here we describe ML-792, the first mechanism-based SUMO-activating enzyme (SAE) inhibitor with nanomolar potency in cellular assays. ML-792 selectively blocks SAE enzyme activity and total SUMOylation, which leads to reduced cancer cell proliferation. Moreover, induction of the MYC oncogene increased the ML-792 mediated viability effect in cancer cells, indicating potential application of SAE inhibitors in MYC-amplified tumors. Using ML-792, we further explored the critical roles of SUMOylation in mitotic progression and chromosome segregation. Furthermore, expression of an SAE catalytic subunit (UBA2) mutant S95N/M97T rescued SUMOylation loss and the mitotic defect induced by ML-792, confirming the selectivity of ML-792. As a potent and selective SAE inhibitor, ML-792 provides rapid loss of endogenously SUMOylated proteins allowing for novel insights into SUMO biology.

Is transthyretin a regulator of Ubc9 SUMOylation?

Project description:Ageing and mutations of transthyretin (TTR), the thyroid hormones and retinol transporting protein lead to amyloidosis by destabilizing the structure of TTR. Because protein structure is regulated through posttranslational modifications, we investigated the Small Ubiquitin-like Modifier (SUMO)ylation of TTR. We chose the widely used Ubc9 fusion-directed SUMOylation system, which is based on a fusion of the SUMOylation substrate of interest with Ubc9, a sole SUMO conjugating enzyme. Surprisingly, despite our presumptions, we found that Ubc9 fused to TTR was SUMOylated at a unique set of lysine residues. Three unknown SUMOylation sites of Ubc9—K154, K18 and K65—were revealed by mass spectrometry (MS). The previously reported SUMOylation at K49 of Ubc9 was also observed. SUMOylation of the lysine residues of TTR fused to Ubc9 was hardly detectable. However, non-fused TTR was SUMOylated via trans-SUMOylation by Ubc9 fused to TTR. Interestingly, mutating the catalytic residue of Ubc9 fused to TTR did not result in complete loss of the SUMOylation signal, suggesting that Ubc9 linked to TTR is directly cross-SUMOylated by the SUMO-activating enzyme E1. Ubc9, TTR or fusion proteins composed of TTR and Ubc9 specifically affected the global SUMOylation of cellular proteins. TTR or Ubc9 alone increased global SUMOylation, whereas TTR and Ubc9 together decreased the amount of high-molecular weight (HMW) SUMO conjugates. Our data suggest that TTR may influence the SUMOylation of Ubc9, thereby altering signalling pathways in the cell.

SUMOylation controls the neurodevelopmental function of the transcription factor Zbtb20

Project description:SUMOylation is a dynamic post-translational protein modification that primarily takes place in cell nuclei, where it plays a key role in multiple DNA-related processes. In brain cells, and particularly in neurons, mostly nuclear proteins are SUMOylated, and the SUMOylation-dependent control of a subset of neuronal transcription factors is known to regulate various aspects of nerve cell differentiation, development, and function. In an unbiased screen for endogenous SUMOylation targets in the developing mouse brain, we previously identified the transcription factor Zbtb20 as a new SUMO1 conjugate. We show here that the three key SUMO paralogues SUMO1, SUMO2, and SUMO3 can all be conjugated to Zbtb20 in vitro, and we confirm the SUMOylation of Zbtb20 in vivo. Using primary hippocampal neurons as a model system, we then demonstrate that the expression of Zbtb20 is required for proper nerve cell development and neurite growth and branching. Furthermore, we show that the SUMOylation of Zbtb20 is essential for Zbtb20 function in this context, and provide evidence indicating that SUMOylation affects the Zbtb20-dependent transcriptional profile of neurons. Taken together, our data highlight the role of SUMOylation in the regulation of neuronal transcription factors that determine nerve cell development. Specifically, our data demonstrate that key functions of the transcription factor Zbtb20 in neuronal development and neurite growth are under the obligatory control of SUMOylation.
