DCAF2 regulates the proliferation and differentiation of mouse progenitor spermatogonia by targeting p21 and thymine DNA glycosylase

ABSTRACT: DDB1-cullin-4-associated factor-2 (DCAF2, also known as DTL or CDT2), a conserved substrate recognition protein of Cullin-RING E3 ligase 4 (CRL4), recognises and degrades several substrate proteins during the S phase to maintain cell cycle progression and genome stability. Our study found that Dcaf2 was highly expressed in the germ cells of human and mouse testes. To determine whether DCAF2 plays a crucial role in spermatogenesis, we generated germ cell conditional Dcaf2 knockout mice by crossing Dcaf2fl/fl mice with Stra8-Cre mice. The depletion of Dcaf2 in germ cells causes a reduction in progenitor spermatogonia and differentiating spermatogonia, eventually leading to the failure of meiosis initiation and male infertility. Further study showed that depletion of Dcaf2 in germ cells caused abnormal accumulation of the substrate proteins cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1A (p21) and thymine DNA glycosylase (TDG). Overexpression of p21 or TDG attenuates proliferation and increases DNA damage and apoptosis in GC-1 cells. Co-overexpression of p21 and TDG exacerbates DNA damage and apoptosis. These results suggest that DCAF2 maintains the expansion and differentiation of progenitor spermatogonia by targeting the substrate proteins p21 and TDG.

Stable Set8 effect on gene expression in U2OS cells

Project description:Ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis play a significant role in various biological processes including transcription, DNA repair and cell cycle progression. The identification of Set8 and Set8b (a splice isoform) histone H4K20 methyl transferase as a substrate for the cullin-based ubiquitin ligase (CRL4-Cdt2) demonstrate that this pathway plays a significant role in promoting cell cycle progression, specifically promoting G2 progression. This study investigate the effect of failure to degrade Set8 in S-phase of the cell cycle via CRL4-Cdt2 on gene expression. We used microarrays to detail the effect of the expression of stable form of Set8b H4K20 mono-methyl transferase (Set8b_deltaPIP2) on gene expression Human osteosarcoma-derived human cells were transduced with retroviruses encoding either wt-Set8b or a mutant of Setb8 which is resistant to degradation via CRL4-Cdt2 ubiquitin ligase complex (Set8b_deltaPIP2) or with an a control pMSCV empty virus. 5 days after transduction, cells were harvested and the RNA was extracted by Trizol (Invitrogen) and hybridized to the affymetrix chips array.

Thymine DNA glycosylase (TDG) regulates cell cycle–driven p53 transcriptional control in pluripotent cells

Project description:Cell cycle progression is linked to transcriptome dynamics and variations in the response of pluripotent cells to differentiation cues, through mostly unknown determinants. Here, we characterized the cell cycle–associated transcriptome and proteome of mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) in naïve ground state. We found that the thymine DNA glycosylase (TDG) is a cell cycle–regulated co-factor of the tumour suppressor p53. Further, TDG and p53 co-bind ESC-specific cis-regulatory elements and thereby control transcription of p53-dependent genes during self-renewal. We determined that the dynamic expression of TDG is required to promote the cell cycle–associated transcriptional heterogeneity. Moreover, we demonstrated that transient depletion of TDG influences cell fate decisions during the early differentiation of mESCs. Our findings reveal an unanticipated role of TDG in promoting molecular heterogeneity during the cell cycle, and highlight the central role of protein dynamics for the temporal control of cell fate during development.

CRL4(CRBN) ubiquitin ligase profiling

Project description:In the 1950s the drug thalidomide administered as a sedative to pregnant women led ot the birth of thousands of children with multiple defects. Despite its teratogenicity, thalidomide and ist IMiD derivatives recently emerged as effective treatments for multiple myeloma and 5q-dysplasia. IMiDs target the CUL4-RBX1-DDB1-CRBN (CRL4(CRBN)) ubiquitin ligase. Through an unbiased screen we identify the homeobox trranscription factor MEIS2 as an endogenous substrate of CRL4(CRBN). By definition, a specific target of CRL4(CRBN) is expected to have a very low intensity on negative control arrays (E1_E2), (E1_CRBN), (E1_E2_Cdt2), (E1_E2_Cdt2_revlimid), (E1_E2_Cdt2_CSN) or with CRL4(CRBN) in presence of inhibitor (E1_E2_CRBN_revlimid) and high intensity on arrays with CRL4(CRBN) (E1_E2_CRBN) or CRL4(CRBN) in presence of CSN (E1_E2_CRBN_CSN) Accordingly 16 protein microarrays were subjected to in vitro ubiquitylation using the following enzyme combinations: 3x Uba1+UbcH5a; 2x Uba1+UbcH5a+CRL4(DDB2); 3x Uba1+UbcH5a+CRL4(CRBN); 2x Uba1+UbcH5a+CRL4(CRBN)+lenalidomide; 2x Uba1+UbcH5a+CRL4(CRBN)+CSN; 2x Uba1+UbcH5a+CRL4(Cdt2); 1x Uba1+UbcH5a+CRL4(Cdt2)+CSN; 1x Uba1+UbcH5a+CRL4(Cdt2)+lenalidomide

Synthetic essentiality of thymine DNA glycosylase in p53-deficient cancer [WGBS]

Project description:Thymine DNA Glycosylase (TDG) is a versatile protein involved in DNA mismatch repair, DNA demethylation, and transcriptional regulation. Here, we identify TDG as a synthetic essential effector in p53-deficient tumours. We found that deletion of TDG inhibits cell proliferation specifically in p53-deficient cancer cells. Using a genetically engineered mouse model of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), we demonstrate that depletion of TDG suppresses tumour growth in the p53-deficient context. Notably, A novel and selective inhibitor developed to disrupt the DNA binding activity of TDG exhibits therapeutic efficacy against p53-deficient tumours in both cellular and xenograft models. Mechanistically, TDG coordinates with p53 to orchestrate the transcription of RNA helicase DHX9, which functions to eliminate dsRNA. Depletion of TDG in p53-deficient cells results in the downregulation of DHX9 and aberrant cytoplasmic double-strand (dsRNA) accumulation derived from Alu elements, subsequently activating the RIG-I/MDA5-MAVS mediated antiviral response. Moreover, single-cell RNA-sequencing analysis revealed the depletion of TDG in p53-deficient tumours facilitates the recruitment of tumour-infiltrating lymphocytes. We observed that TDG inhibition combined with immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) achieved a strong synergistic anti-tumour effect in p53-deficient tumours. This study highlights the function of TDG in maintaining p53-deficient tumour growth and provides an alternative therapeutic target for p53-deficient cancers.
