Project description:In order to assess the physiological role of Cop1 in vivo we generated mice that do no longer express the protein. Cop1KO mice die at around E10.5 of embryonic development. In order to gain insights into the molecular mechanisms that cause the embryonic death we compared the genome-wide gene expression profile of E9.5 wild-tytpe and Cop1-null embryos. The data do not support a role for Cop1 in the regulation of the p53 pathway in vivo and highlight a role for Cop1 in cardiovascular development and/or angiogenesis. The abstract of the associated publication is as follows:Biochemical data have suggested conflicting roles for the E3 ubiquitin ligase Cop1 in tumourigenesis. Here we present the first in vivo investigation of the role of Cop1 in cancer aetiology. We used an innovative genetic approach to generate an allelic series of Cop1 and show that Cop1 hypomorphic mice spontaneously develop malignancy at a high frequency in their first year of life and are highly susceptible to radiation-induced lymphomagenesis. Biochemically, we show that Cop1 regulates c-Jun oncoprotein stability and modulates c-Jun/AP1 transcriptional activity in vivo. Cop1-deficiency stimulates cell proliferation in a c-Jun-dependent manner. We conclude that Cop1 is a tumour suppressor that antagonizes c-Jun oncogenic activity in vivo. RNA from 6 different control embryos (+/+ or +/-) were mixed and subdivided into control pool 1 and pool 2. RNA from 6 different Cop-null embryos were mixed and subdivided into KO pool 1 and pool 2.

Project description:The proper accumulation of BBX22 mediated by COP1 is crucial for plants to maintain better growth fitness when growing in the dark environment as well as responding to seasonal changes in day-length. The constitutive-photomorphogenic development of the cop1 mutant is enhanced in cop1BBX22-GFPox plants, which show a short hypocotyl, high anthocyanin accumulation and expression of light-responsive genes. Target genes responsible for the exaggerated light phenotype in cop1BBX22-GFPox plants were revealed by comparing transcriptomes among dark-grown wild-type, cop1 and cop1BBX22-GFPox plants. Expression of genes regulated by light and multiple hormones are altered in plants over-accumulating BBX22, implying a coordination role of BBX22 in light- and hormone-mediated seedling development. Three biological replicates for 4-day-old etiolated seedlings of wild type (Col-0) and two mutants (cop1-4 and cop1-4BBX22-GFPox).

Project description:The proto-oncogenes ETV1, ETV4, and ETV5 encode members of the E26 transformation-specific (ETS) transcription factor family, which includes the most frequently rearranged and overexpressed genes in prostate cancer. Despite being critical regulators of development, little is known about their post-translational regulation. Here we identify the ubiquitin ligase COnstitutive Photomorphogenic-1 (COP1, also called RFWD2) as a tumor suppressor that negatively regulates ETV1, ETV4, and ETV5. ETV1, which is the member mutated more frequently in prostate cancer, was degraded after being ubiquitinated by COP1. Truncated ETV1 encoded by prostate cancer translocation TMPRSS2:ETV1 lacks the critical COP1 binding motifs (degrons) and was 50-fold more stable than wild-type ETV1. Almost all patient translocations eliminate these ETV1 degrons, implying that translocations rendering ETV1 insensitive to COP1 confer a significant selective advantage to prostate epithelial cells. Indeed, COP1 deficiency in mouse prostate elevated ETV1 levels and produced increased cell proliferation, hyperplasia, and early prostate intraepithelial neoplasia. The combined loss of COP1 and PTEN enhanced the invasiveness of mouse prostate adenocarcinomas. Finally, relatively rare human prostate cancer samples showed hemizygous loss of the COP1 gene, loss of COP1 protein expression, and abnormally elevated ETV1 protein while lacking a translocation event. These findings identify COP1 as a bona fide tumor suppressor whose down-regulation promotes prostatic epithelial cell proliferation and tumorigenesis. LNCap prostate cancer cell line were treated with 5 different sets of siRNAs: (1) control siRNA; (2) COP1 (RFWD2) siRNA; (3) COP1 siRNA + ETV1 siRNA; (4) COP1 siRNA + c-JUN siRNA; (5) COP1 siRNA + ETV1 siRNA + c-JUN siRNA. The experiments were conducted in two batches; each batch has its own control siRNA group, so that the batch effect can be properly modelled. Each group has 4-6 replicates; there are 31 samples in total.

Project description:Development of targeted therapeutics for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains a major challenge. We have previously demonstrated that constitutively photomorphogenic 1 (COP1), which regulates p53 activity by ubiquitination, is frequently overexpressed in human HCC. Here we examined whether molecular targeting of COP1 by small interfering (si) RNA can affect the course of HCC progression. COP1-1 was selected as the most effective target siRNAs in terms of growth inhibition and apoptotic induction in several HCC cell lines. Interestingly, the growth inhibition occurred both in HCC cells that retain wild-type p53 or express mutant p53 (Y220C or R249S). Next we have determined to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying the phenotypic changes. Given the recent findings that COP1 functions as a negative regulator of p53, we addressed whether the phenotypic changes caused by COP1 silencing were due to alterations in p53 and/or p21 status. Indeed, in COP1-depleted HepG2 cells expressing wild type p53, induction of apoptosis was associated with restoration of p53 function as judged by a marked increase in the levels of p53 and its target p21, suggesting that cell death was p53-dependent. However, the COP1 silencing in Huh7 cells, which carry Y220C mutation, caused a strong induction of apoptosis without changing p53 levels. To further address this issue, we next looked for the global transcriptional changes underlying the antitumor effects of COP1 silencing in HCC cells [with different p53 status]. For this purpose, Huh7 and HepG2 were treated with NCsiRNA and COP1-1siRNA for 48 hours and subjected to illumina microarray analysis. We found that the number of differentially expressed genes which displayed more than a 2-fold change (P < 0.01 by Bootstrap t-test) was 462 (167 up- and 295 down-regulated genes) and 522 (179 up- and 343 down-regulated genes) in COP1siRNA-treated Huh7 and HepG2 cells, respectively. As expected, the expression levels of RFWD2 (COP1) mRNA were significantly reduced in both treated HCC cell lines. Consistent with phenotypic changes, COP1-depleted Huh7 cells also displayed changes in p53-associated group of genes functionally involved in regulation of apoptosis, growth and differentiation including CASP6, GLIPR1, FHL2, GADD45A, HMOX1 BCL6, FOXO3, GDF15, and SCNN1A genes. Finally, we generated the common COP1 knockdown gene signature which included 78 genes. The Ingenuity Pathway Analysis analysis revealed that the 5 top putative networks with high score (>19) were strongly associated with NF-κB, HNF4α, TNF, and p53 pathways, suggesting that a common subset of molecular alterations in the diverse oncogenic pathways may cooperatively result in growth inhibition of HCC cells with wild type and mutant p53. Analysis of COP1 knockdown gene expression signatures by microarray revealed that the anti-proliferative effect was driven by a common subset of molecular alterations including p53-associated functional network. Systemic delivery of a modified COP1siRNA by stable-nucleic-acid-lipid-particles (SNALP) significantly suppressed neoplastic growth in liver, without unwanted immune response in an orthotopic xenograft model. These findings provide the first proof of principle that COP1 is a promising target for systemic therapy of HCC. Microarray was performed on human Ref-8v3 microarrays (illumina) as recommended by the manufacture. In detail, total RNAs were isolated 48 h after the transfection of NCsiRNA or COP1-1siRNA to Huh7, HepG2 or Hep3B cells. Biotin-labeled cRNA was linearly amplified according to manufacturerâs specification (AMIL1791; Ambion, Austin, TX). As input, 200 ng total RNA from tumor was used for the in vitro transcription (IVT) reactions which were incubated for 16 h at 37 ºC. The efficiency of this single round amplification was measured by NanoDrop (ND1000, Thermo Scientific). Hybridization, washing, detection (Cy3-streptavidin, Amersham Biosciences, GE Healthcare) and scanning were performed on an Illumina iScan system (Illumina) using reagents and following protocols supplied by the manufacturer. Briefly, the biotinylated cRNA (750 ng/sample) was hybridized on Sentrix whole genome beadchips human Ref-8v3 for 18 h at 58ºC while rocking (5 rpm). The beadchip covers ~ 24,000 RefSeq transcripts. Image analysis and data extraction were performed automatically using Illumina GenomeScan Software. To explore the functional relationships among the genes with altered expression in the HCC cells treated with COP1-1siRNA, a pathway analysis was carried out with the Ingenuity Pathway Analysis tool (Ingenuity Systems). Using the approach, we examined functional associations among genes and generated the gene networks with high significance on the basis that they had more of the interconnected genes present than would be expected by chance. The significance of each network was estimated by scoring system provided by Ingenuity. The scores are determined by the number of differentially expressed genes within each of the networks and the strength of the associations among network members. Once over-represented genes that are functionally relevant in gene networks are identified, we validated their functional association by using the independent pathway analysis tool PathwayStudio (Ariadne Genomics).

Project description:Bone marrow was extracted from mice that are COP1-wt Rosa26-CreERT2 or COP1-floxed Rosa26-CreERT2 BMDMs were obtained by culturing bone marrow precursors in media containing 20% of supernatant from L929 cells. At day 4 of differentiation 4-OHT was added at 1uM to induce deletion of COP1 in BMDMs derived from COP1-floxed mice. At day 7 of differentiation, BMDMs were treated with 100 ng/ml of LPS or not. BMDMs were directly harvested in lysis buffer (from Qiagen RNeasy mini kit) at different time points (0h, 2.5h, 2.5h, 4h, 6h, 9h and 13h) following LPS stimulation. Three BMDMs preparations per group: G1: BMDMs from COP1-wt mice (expressing the wt allele of COP1) CRE positive. G2: BMDMs from COP1-floxed mice (expressing the floxed allele of COP1) CRE positive
