STK38 is a Key Regulator of MYC Transcriptional Activity in Human B lymphoma cells

ABSTRACT: Post-translational regulation of the MYC Transcription Factor (TF), including its phosphorylation and ubiquitination, plays an important role in determining cell proliferation and apoptosis and has been implicated in tumorigenesis. Using a computational systems biology approach, followed by biochemical and functional validation, we have characterized the role of the STK38 kinase, an NDR family serine-threonine kinase, as a key modulator of MYC transcriptional activity in human B cells, affecting MYC protein stability in a signal-dependent fashion. Specifically, we show that in human B lymphoma ST486 cells STK38 is a key mediator of BCR pathway signaling, affecting MYC protein turnover and its phosphorylation at Ser62 in kinase-activity-dependent manner. STK38 inactivation abrogates apoptosis following BCR activation while its silencing mediates MYC protein degradation via canonical proteolytic pathways. This suggests that STK38 could provide an effective therapeutic target in MYC-dependent malignancies.

Phosphorylation-Regulated Cleavage of ETHYLENE INSENSITIVE2 Mediates Hormone Signaling from the Endoplasmic Reticulum to the Nucleus

Project description:Ethylene gas is essential for many developmental processes and stress responses in plants. ETHYLENE INSENSITIVE2 (EIN2), an NRAMP-homologous integral membrane protein, plays an essential role in ethylene signaling but its function remains enigmatic. Here we report that phosphorylation-regulated proteolytic processing of EIN2 triggers its endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-nucleus translocation, which is essential for hormone signaling and response in Arabidopsis. Without ethylene, or in hormone receptors mutants, ER-tethered EIN2 shows CTR1 kinase-dependent phosphorylation. Ethylene exposure triggers dephosphorylation and proteolytic cleavage, resulting in rapid nuclear translocation of a carboxyl-terminal EIN2 fragment (C’). Plants containing mutations that mimic EIN2 dephosphorylation, or inactivate CTR1, show constitutive cleavage and nuclear localization of EIN2-C’, and EIN3/EIL1-dependent activation of ethylene responses. These findings uncover a mechanism of subcellular communication whereby ethylene gas stimulates rapid phosphorylation-dependent cleavage and nuclear movement of the EIN2-C’ peptide, thus linking hormone perception and signaling components located in the ER with nuclear-localized transcriptional regulators.

Rewiring of B cell receptor signaling by Epstein-Barr virus LMP2A

Project description:Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infects human B cells and reprograms them to allow virus replication and persistence. One key viral factor in this process is latent membrane protein 2A (LMP2A), which has been described as a B cell receptor (BCR) mimic promoting malignant transformation. However, how LMP2A signaling contributes to tumorigenesis remains elusive. By systematically comparing LMP2A and BCR signaling using quantitative phosphoproteomics and transcriptome profiling, we identified molecular mechanisms through which LMP2A affects B cell biology. Consistent with previous literature, we found that LMP2A mimics a subset of BCR signaling events, including tyrosine-phosphorylation of the kinase SYK, the calcium initiation complex consisting of BLNK, BTK, PLC2, and its downstream transcription factor NFAT. However, the vast majority of LMP2A-induced signaling events markedly differed from those induced by BCR stimulation. These included differential phosphorylation of kinases, phosphatases, adaptor proteins, transcription factors such as NFB and TCF3, as well as widespread changes in the transcriptional output of LMP2A-expressing B cells. LMP2A affected apoptosis and cell cycle checkpoints by dysregulating the expression of apoptosis regulators such as Bcl-xL and the tumor suppressor retinoblastoma-associated protein (RB1). Accordingly, LMP2A cooperated with drivers of Burkitt lymphoma, overexpressed MYC and an oncogenic cyclin D3 mutant, by counteracting the pro-apoptotic effects of MYC and by further inhibiting RB1 function to promote cell growth. Our results indicate that LMP2A rewires rather than mimics BCR signaling, promoting a signaling output that predisposes EBV-infected B cells to hyperproliferation and eventual malignant transformation.

PDK1 Signaling Towards PLK1-Myc Activation Confers Oncogenic Transformation and Tumor Initiating Cell Activation and Resistance to mTOR-targeted Therapy.

Project description:Although 3-Phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase-1 (PDK1) has been predominately linked to PI3K-AKT pathway, it may also evoke additional signaling outputs to promote tumorigenesis. Here we report that PDK1 directly induces phosphorylation of Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1), which in turn induces Myc phosphorylation and protein accumulation. We show that PDK1-PLK1-Myc signaling is critical for cancer cell growth and survival and small molecule inhibition of PDK1/PLK1 provides an effective approach for therapeutic targeting Myc-dependency. Intriguingly, PDK1-PLK1-Myc signaling induces an embryonic stem cell-like gene signature associated with aggressive tumor behaviors and is a robust signaling axis driving cancer stem cell (CSC) self renewal. Finally, we show that PLK1 inhibitor synergizes with mTOR inhibitor to induce synergistic anti-tumor effect in colorectal cancer by antagonizing a compensatory Myc induction. These findings identify a novel pathway in human cancer and CSC activation and provide a therapeutic strategy for targeting Myc-associated tumorigenesis and therapeutic resistance.

Late cornified envelope 1C (LCE1C) gene is a transcriptional target of TAp63.

Project description:As a member of the p53/p63/p73 family, p63 is a transcriptional regulator that induces apoptosis, cell cycle arrest, or senescence. TAp63 protein, a p53-like master transcriptional regulator, plays an essential role in epithelial development because p63-null mice are born alive but die shortly after birth due to developmental defects. However, its molecular mechanism remains elusive. We identified these phosphorylation sites during a search for the targets of Cyclin G-associated kinase (GAK) in vitro. LCE1C was drastically upregulated by doxycycline-dependent expression of Myc-TAp63 wild-type (WT) proteins, but not non-phosphorylatable Myc-TAp63-T46A/T281A (AA) proteins.

A novel tumor suppressing role for RUNX3 is shown where a direct interaction with MYC leads to disruption of MYC-MAX heterodimers and consequent degradation of the MYC oncoprotein

Project description:Developmental regulator RUNX3 targets MYC protein for rapid degradation through the glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta-box/WD repeat-containing protein 7 (GSK3β-FBXW7) proteolytic pathway. We therefore uncover a previously unknown mode of MYC destabilization by RUNX3 and provide an explanation as to why RUNX3 inhibits early-stage cancer development in gastrointestinal and lung mouse cancer models.

A cell competition-based drug screen identifies a novel compound that induces dual c-Myc degradation and p53 activation

Project description:BCR-Abl is a driver oncogene that causes chronic myeloid leukemia and a subset of acute lymphoid leukemias. Although tyrosine kinase inhibitors provide an effective treatment for these diseases, they generally do not kill leukemic stem cells. Leukemic stem cells are cancer-initiating cells that compete with normal hematopoietic stem cells for the bone marrow niche. Using BCR-Abl as a model oncogene, we performed a drug screen based on competition between isogenic untransformed cells and BCR-Abl-transformed cells, and identified several compounds that selectively target BCR-Abl-transformed cells. Systems-level analysis of one of these novel compounds, DJ34, revealed that it induced depletion of c-Myc and activation of p53. c-Myc depletion occurred in a wide range of tumor types, including leukemia, lymphoma, lung, glioblastoma and breast cancer. Further analyses revealed that DJ34 interferes with c-Myc synthesis at the level of transcription, and we provide data showing that DJ34 is a DNA intercalator and topoisomerase II inhibitor. Physiologically, DJ34 induced apoptosis, cell cycle arrest and cell differentiation, and primary leukemic stem cells were particularly sensitive to DJ34. Taken together, we have identified a novel compound that dually targets c-Myc and p53 in a wide variety of cancers, and with particularly strong activity against leukemic stem cells.

Temporal regulation of Lsp1 O-GlcNAcylation and phosphorylation duringactivated Bcellsapoptosis

Project description:Here, we decipher the molecular mechanisms bridging B cell activation and apoptosis mediated by post-translational modification(PTM). We found that O-GlcNAcase inhibition enhances B cell activation and apoptosisinduced by B cell receptor (BCR)cross-linking. This proteome-scale analysis of the functional interplay between protein O-GlcNAcylation and phosphorylation in stimulated mouse primary B cells identified313O-GlcNAcylation-dependent phosphositeson 224 phosphoproteins.Among these phosphoproteins, temporal regulation ofthe O-GlcNAcylation and phosphorylation of lymphocyte-specific protein-1 (Lsp1) is a key switch that triggersapoptosis in activated B cells. O-GlcNAcylation at S209 of Lsp1, identified as the major O-GlcNAc site on Lsp1 by both electron-transfer dissociationand collision-induced dissociationtandem mass spectrometry,was a prerequisite for the recruitment of its kinase, PKC-β1, to induce S243 phosphorylation, leading to ERK activation and down-regulation of BCL-2 and BCL-xL. Thus, we demonstrate the critical PTM interplay of Lsp1 that transmits signals for initiating apoptosis after BCR ligation.

Pin1 is required for sustained B cell proliferation upon oncogenic activation of Myc

Project description:The c-myc proto-oncogene is activated by translocation in Burkitt's lymphoma and substitutions in codon 58 stabilize the Myc protein or augment its oncogenic potential. In wild-type Myc, phosphorylation of Ser 62 and Thr 58 provide a landing pad for the peptidyl prolyl-isomerase Pin1, which in turn promotes Ser 62 dephosphorylation and Myc degradation. However, the role of Pin1 in Myc-induced lymphomagenesis remains unknown. We show here that genetic ablation of Pin1 reduces lymphomagenesis in EÂµ-myc transgenic mice. In both Pin1-deficient B-cells and MEFs, the proliferative response to Myc was selectively impaired, with no alterations in Myc-induced apoptosis or mitogen-induced cell cycle entry. This proliferative defect wasn't attributable to alterations in either Ser 62 phosphorylation or Myc-regulated transcription, but to the indirect activation of an Arf-p53 dependent cytostatic response. Pin1 silencing in lymphomas retarded disease progression in mice, making Pin1 an attractive therapeutic target in Myc-driven tumors. RNAseq samples of Pin1+/+ control (n=4), Pin1 -/- control (n=2), Pin1+/+ EÂµ-myc pre-tumoral (n=3), and Pin1-/- EÂµ-myc pre-tumoral (n=4) B cells.
