STUB1 Regulates Epithelial Function Through Mediating the EDAR/ NF-κB Pathway

ABSTRACT: Besides ectodermal derivatives morphogenesis, the inactivation of the Ectodysplasin A(EDA)/Ectodysplasin A Receptor(EDAR) signaling pathway has also been demonstrated to impede the process of skin repair. EDAR, a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, plays a central role in this signaling pathway.However, the regulatory mechanism of EDAR and its target genes in wound healing remain unclear.As a membrane protein, the turnover of EDAR is more likely to be affected by ubiquitination, where an E3 Ubuitin ligase targets substrates for degradation. We performed a yeast two-hybrid assay to identify the potential E3 ligase. STIP1 homology and U-box-containing protein 1 (STUB1) was found to interact with EDAR and mediate its ubiquitination and degradation. To explore the function of STUB1 in keratinocytes, we constructed STUB1 knockout HaCaT cells, which showed accelerated healing and growth capabilities. Elevated protein level of EDAR and upregulated activation of downstream nuclear factor-κB signaling were detected in STUB1 knockout HaCaT cells. To find out why STUB1 knockout induced the functional alteration of HaCaT cells and which genes might be affected, an RNA-seq analysis was performed.

UBIQUITIN LIGASE STUB1 DESTABILIZES IFNγ-RECEPTOR COMPLEX TO SUPPRESS TUMOR IFNγ SIGNALING

Project description:The cytokine IFNγ differentially impacts on tumors upon immune checkpoint blockade (ICB). Despite our understanding of downstream signaling events, less is known about 36 regulation of its receptor (IFNγ-R1). With an unbiased genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 screen for critical regulators of IFNγ-R1 cell surface abundance, we identified STUB1 as an E3 ubiquitin ligase for IFNγ-R1 in complex with its signal-relaying kinase JAK1. STUB1 mediates ubiquitination-dependent proteasomal degradation of IFNγ-R1/JAK1 complex through IFNγ-R1K285 and JAK1K249. Conversely, STUB1 inactivation amplifies IFNγ signaling, sensitizing tumor cells to cytotoxic T cells in vitro. This was corroborated by an anticorrelation between STUB1 expression and IFNγ response in ICB-treated patients. Consistent with the context-dependent effects of IFNγ in vivo, anti-PD-1 response was increased in heterogenous tumors comprising both wildtype and STUB1-deficient cells but not full STUB1 knockout tumors. These results uncover STUB1 as a critical regulator of IFNγ-R1, and highlight the context-dependency of STUB1-regulated IFNγ signaling for ICB outcome.

STUB1 regulates antiviral RNAi through inducing ubiquitination and degradation of Dicer and AGO2 in mammals

Project description:RNA interference (RNAi) is a cell-intrinsic antiviral defense conserved in diverse organisms. However, the mechanism by which mammalian antiviral RNAi is regulated is largely unknown. Herein, we uncover that STUB1, an E3 ubiquitin ligase, interacts with and ubiquitinates AGO2, the core component of RNAi pathway, resulting in the degradation of AGO2 via ubiquitin-proteasome system. Additionally, STUB1 can induce the degradation of the other mammalian AGO proteins including AGO1, AGO3, and AGO4. Our further study reveals that STUB1 also interacts with and mediates the ubiquitination of Dicer, the endoribonuclease responsible for siRNA or miRNA biogenesis, via K48-linked poly-ubiquitin, which induces the degradation of Dicer and its specialized form, termed antiviral Dicer (aviDicer) that usually expresses in stem cells. Loss of STUB1 upregulated Dicer and AGO2, thereby enhancing antiviral RNAi to effectively inhibit viral RNA replication in mammalian cells. In vivo, the STUB1 deficiency markedly enhanced the production of virus-derived siRNAs and elicited a potent antiviral effect against Enterovirus-A71 (EV-A71) infection in newborn mouse. Our findings demonstrate STUB1 as a novel negative regulator of RNAi by mediating the ubiquitination and degradation of Dicer and AGO proteins, and provide novel insights into the regulatory mechanism of antiviral RNAi in mammals.

Proteostasis by STUB1/HSP70 complex controls sensitivity to androgen receptor targeted therapy in advanced prostate cancer (Affymetrix)

Project description:Constitutively active androgen receptor (AR) signaling confers resistance to AR-targeted therapies. Here we show that the ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis pathway plays a critical role in the degradation of AR and its variants, particularly variant 7 (AR-V7). AR/AR-V7 proteinhomeostasis (proteostasis) requires interaction of the E3 ubiquitin ligase STUB1 and HSP70complex. STUB1 disassociates AR/AR-V7 from HSP70, leading to AR/AR-V7 ubiquitination and degradation. Inhibition of HSP70 reduces AR/AR-V7 expression which significantly inhibits prostate tumor growth and improves enzalutamide/abiraterone treatments. Clinically, HSP70 expression is upregulated and correlated with AR/AR-V7 levels in high Gleason scores prostate tumors. Our results reveal a novel mechanism of AR-V7 modulation via proteostasis which could be targeted to reduce AR-V7 expression and overcome resistance to AR-targeted therapies.

Running Title: STUB1 regulates YTHDF1 stability and suppresses tumorigenesis of renal cell carcinomas

Project description:STIP1 homology and U-box protein 1 (STUB1), a key RING family E3 ubiquitin ligase, plays both oncogenic and tumor-suppressive roles in a variety of human cancers. However, the role and mechanism of STUB1 in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) remains poorly defined. Here, we identified YTHDF1 as a novel STUB1 interactor by affinity purification mass spectrometry (AP-MS). STUB1 polyubiquitylates YTHDF1 and promotes YTHDF1 degradation. STUB1 depletion stabilizes YTHDF1 in renal cancer cells. STUB1-knockdown renal cancer cells exhibit increased migration and invasion in YTHDF1 dependent manner. Further study demonstrates that STUB1 knockdown promoted the tumorigenicity of ccRCC in a xenograft model. Clinically, STUB1 expression is down-regulated in ccRCC tissues, and the low expression level of STUB1 was associated with higher tumor stage and poor overall survival in patients with ccRCC. These findings reveal that STUB1 acts as an E3 ubiquitin ligase and promotes degradation of YTHDF1, and STUB1 inhibits the tumorigenicity of ccRCC through ubiquitinating YTHDF1.

STUB1 is an intracellular checkpoint for interferon gamma sensing

Project description:Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) leads to durable and complete tumour regression in some patients but in others gives temporary, partial or no response. Accordingly, significant efforts are underway to identify tumour-intrinsic mechanisms underlying ICB resistance. Results from a published CRISPR screen in a mouse model suggested that targeting STUB1, an E3 ligase involved in protein homeostasis, may overcome ICB resistance but the molecular basis of this effect remains unclear. Herein, we report an under-appreciated role of STUB1 to dampen the interferon gamma (IFNg) response. Genetic deletion of STUB1 increased IFNGR1 abundance on the cell surface and thus enhanced the downstream IFNg response as showed by multiple approaches including Western blotting, flow cytometry, qPCR, phospho-STAT1 assay, immunopeptidomics, proteomics, and gene expression profiling. Human prostate and breast cancer cells with STUB1 deletion were also susceptible to cytokine-induced growth inhibition. Furthermore, blockade of STUB1 protein function recapitulated the STUB1-null phenotypes. Despite these encouraging in vitro data and positive implications from clinical datasets, we did not observe in vivo benefits of inactivating Stub1 in mouse syngeneic tumour models – with or without combination with anti-PD-1 therapy. However, our findings elucidate STUB1 as a barrier to IFNg sensing, prompting further investigations to assess if broader inactivation of human STUB1 in both tumors and immune cells could overcome ICB resistance.

STUB1-mediated K63-linked ubiquitination of UHRF1 promotes the progression of cholangiocarcinoma by maintaining DNA hypermethylation of PLA2G2A

Project description:Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a highly malignant tumor characterized by a lack of effective targeted therapeutic strategies. The protein UHRF1 plays a pivotal role in the preservation of DNA methylation and works synergistically with DNMT1. Posttranscriptional modifications (PTMs), such as ubiquitination, play indispensable roles in facilitating this process. Nevertheless, the specific PTMs that regulate UHRF1 in CCA remain unidentified. We confirmed the interaction between STUB1 and UHRF1 through mass spectrometry analysis. Furthermore, we investigated the underlying mechanisms of the STUB1-UHRF1/DNMT1 axis via co-IP experiments, denaturing IP ubiquitination experiments, nuclear‒cytoplasmic separation and immunofluorescence experiments. STUB1-UHRF1/DNMT1-mediated DNA methylation plays a crucial role in promoting the epigenetic silencing of tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) and facilitating tumor progression. To investigate the specific TSGs regulated by the STUB1-UHRF1/DNMT1 axis in CCA cells, RNA-seq analysis of overexpressed STUB1 and negative control TFK1 cells was performed.

Proteostasis perturbation of N-Myc by HSP70 inhibition improves treatment in neuroendocrine prostate cancer I

Project description:N-Myc is a key driver of neuroendocrine tumors, such as neuroblastoma and neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC). However, N-Myc is considered undruggable because it lacks clear binding sites for small molecules. One potential way to circumvent this challenge is to identify and target the protein homeostasis (proteostasis) system(s) that maintain N-Myc levels. Here we developed a novel spontaneously indefinite prostate cancer cell line UCDCaP and its paired castration-resistant line UCDCaP-CR, which exhibits neural lineage plasticity and high levels of N-Myc protein expression. Through rapid immunoprecipitation mass spectrometry assay, we revealed that heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) is a top partner for N-Myc. HSP70 is known to function in protein folding and it also coordinates with the E3 ubiquitin ligase, STIP1 homology and U-box containing protein 1 (STUB1), to regulate oncoprotein degradation. We find that HSP70 binds a conserved ‘SELILKR’ motif and prevents the access of STUB1 on N-Myc possibly through steric hindrance. When HSP70’s dwell time on N-Myc is increased by the conformational change of HSP70, STUB1 is in close proximity with N-Myc and becomes functional to promote N-Myc ubiquitination on the K416 and K419 sites of the bHLH-LZ domain and form the poly ubiquitination chains linked by the K11 and K63 sites. Inhibition of HSP70’s ATPase activity by an allosteric inhibitor, JG231, promoted degradation of N-Myc through enhancing STUB1 binding in the nucleus. Notably, JG231 significantly suppressed NEPC tumor growth and limited expression of neuroendocrine related pathways. Guided by a potential bypass route of N-Myc turnover in the cancer cell, we find that dual targeting of Aurora kinase A (AURKA) and HSP70 drastically suppressed N-Myc and tumor growth in NEPC.
