Transcriptional response to Activating transcription factor 3 (Atf3) activity in the Drosophila eye antenna imaginal disc (EAD) epithelium.

ABSTRACT: Here we describe the transcriptional response to Atf3 expression in the EAD. Atf3 is a cell polarity response gene acting downstream of the membrane-associated Scribble polarity complex. Loss of the neoplastic tumor suppressors Scribble or Dlg1 induces Atf3 expression via aPKC signaling. Using ChIP-seq we have determined that Atf3 targets are enriched for roles in cytoarchitecture. Gain of Atf3 function interferes with organization of the microtubule network, thereby disturbing vesicular trafficking processes including endocytosis, and consequently alters the distribution of key polarity proteins along the apicobasal axis. Conversely, removal of Atf3 from cells lacking Dlg1 suppresses trafficking defects and restores both the normal localization of polarity determinants and epithelial differentiation. These results thus establish loss of polarity as a novel cue that induces Atf3 and demonstrate that gain of Atf3 function drives specific hallmarks of epithelial cells deficient for the Scribble polarity module.

DLG1 functions upstream of SDCCAG3 and IFT20 to control ciliary targeting of polycystin-2

Project description:Polarized vesicular trafficking directs specific receptors and ion channels to cilia, but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Here we describe a role for DLG1, a core component of the Scribble polarity complex, in regulating ciliary protein trafficking in kidney epithelial cells. Conditional knockout of Dlg1 in mouse kidney caused causes ciliary elongation and cystogenesis, and cell-based proximity labelling proteomics and fluorescence microscopy showed alterations in the ciliary proteome upon loss of DLG1. Specifically, the retromer-associated protein SDCCAG3, IFT20 and polycystin-2 (PC2) were are reduced in cilia of DLG1 deficient cells compared to control cells. This phenotype was is recapitulated in vivo and rescuable by re-expression of wildtype DLG1, but not a Congenital Anomalies of the Kidney and Urinary Tract (CAKUT)-associated DLG1 variant, p.T489R. Finally, biochemical approaches and Alpha Fold modelling suggested that SDCCAG3 and IFT20 form a complex that associates, at least indirectly, with DLG1. Our work identifies a key role for DLG1 in regulating ciliary protein composition and suggests that ciliary dysfunction of the p.T489R DLG1 variant may contribute to CAKUT.

Deciphering the direct transcriptional targets of the Drosophila Activating transcription factor 3 (Atf3) via ChIp-seq: Atf3 bridges the gap between cell polarity and the nucleus

Project description:Epithelial structure and function are governed by evolutionarily conserved signaling programs. The Drosophila Activating transcription factor 3 (Atf3) prevents epithelial cell replacement during abdominal morphogenesis, yet its transcriptional targets are unknown. Here we demonstrate that Atf3 positively and negatively regulates target genes central to cytoskeleton dynamics and adhesion. Epithelial clones overexpressing Atf3 are enriched for basolateral proteins at the expense of apical identity. Strikingly, Atf3 functions downstream of the Scrib polarity module. Depleting either scrib or dlg1 induces atf3 expression, while loss of atf3 suppresses differentiation and polarity defects in cells deficient for the Scrib complex

Basolateral Protein Scribble Provides Phosphatase PP1 to a Signaling Network Maintaining Apicobasal Polarity

Project description:Scribble, a member of the LAP protein family, contributes to the apicobasal polarity (ABP) of epithelial cells. The LAP unique region (LUR) of these proteins is essential for ABP function, and includes a highly conserved Leucine Reach Repeat (LRR) domain. Here we study how the LRR domain of Scribble maintains ABP. We show that its concave surface participates in three types of mutually exclusive interactions 1. homodimerization serving as an auto-inhibitory mechanism, 2. interactions with a diverse set of polarity proteins, such as Llgl1, Llgl2, EPB41L2 and EPB41L5, which produce distinct multiprotein complexes, and 3. a direct interaction with the protein phosphatase, PP1, which forms a dimeric LRR domain-PP1 complex. Our results suggest that the latter complex maintains PP1 in the basolateral cell cortex in close proximity to PP1 targets. Such organization generates a dynamic network where PP1 could be immediately dispatched from the Scribble-PP1 complex to particular protein ligands. This mechanism for controlling dephosphorylation kinetics of phosphorylated proteins could be universal for all members of the LAP protein family, which includes Erbin, Lano, and the neuron-specific protein, Densin-180.

Expression data from TGFbeta-treated control or aPKC silenced A549 cells

Project description:Aberrant TGFbeta signalling is a hallmark of epithelial derived tumours. Signalling patterns can depend on the membrane trafficking and internalization of the TGFbeta receptors. Protein kinase C (PKC), particularly the atypical PKC isoforms, alter the trafficking of TGFbeta receptors and can alter TGFbeta induced gene expression. We used microarrays to detail the programme of gene expression underlying TGFbeta induction between control or aPKC silenced A549 cells. Control or aPKC silenced A549 cells were serum starved and treated with TGFbeta for 1 hour. Total RNA was extracted from untreated or TGFbeta treated cells after 8 and 24 hours and analyzed using Affymetrix microarrays. We sought to assess TGFbeta gene expression in aPKC silenced lung cancer cells, as we found that knockdown of aPKC extends TGFbeta signalling as assessed by phospho Smad2 levels. Furthermore, increased expression and oncogenic activity of aPKC (PKCiota) has been reported in lung cancer cells.

Microarray based gene expression comparison between wild type and yap-1(ys38) C. elegans embyos

Project description:Although multiple determinants for establishing polarity in membranes of epithelial cells have been identified, the mechanism for maintaining the apicobasal polarity is not fully understood. Here, we show that the conserved Hippo kinase pathway plays a role in the maintenance of apicobasal polarity in the developing intestine of Caenorhabditis elegans. We screened suppressors of the mutation in wts-1, the gene encoding the LATS kinase homolog, whose deficiency leads to the disturbance of the apicobasal polarity of the intestinal cells and the eventual death of organisms. Multiple alleles of yap-1 and egl-44, each encoding the worm homologs of YAP/Yki and TEAD/Sd, respectively, were identified as suppressors. WTS-1 directly bound to YAP-1 and inhibited its nuclear accumulation in intestinal cells. We also found that NFM-1, the worm homolog of NF2/Merlin, functioned in the same genetic pathway as WTS-1 to regulate YAP-1 for maintaining cellular polarity. The transcriptome analysis using microarray identified several target candidates of the YAP-1-EGL-44 complex including TAT-2, encoding a putative P-type ATPase. In summary, we have delineated the conserved Hippo pathway in worms consisting of NFM-1-WTS-1-YAP-1-EGL-44 and prove that the proper regulation of YAP-1 by upstream NFM-1 and WTS-1 is esssential for the maintenance of apicobasal membrane identities of the growing intestine

Time-resolved function of cell polarity kinases PRKCZ and PRKCI in CNS myelination [snrna_oligo]

Project description:The atypical Protein Kinase C (aPKC) is a critical component of the PAR polarity complex, as well as of cell polarity in general. There are two paralogs of aPKC in the mammalian genome. Their expression pattern and functional role in oligodendrocyte lineage differentiation and development remains heretofore uncharacterized. Here we show that both paralogs of aPKC – PRKCI, the primary transcript of Prkci and PKMz, an alternate transcript of Prkcz – are expressed during oligodendrocyte differentiation, yet are functionally non-redundant. Asymmetric cell division and early specification of the oligodendrocyte fate stage required both paralogs. By contrast, the stage of oligodendrocyte maturation involving membrane polarization and myelination of axons continued to require PKMz, but no longer needed PRKCI. Taken together, our results indicate to a two-stage role of aPKCs and cell polarity in oligodendrocyte differentiation and development.

CDC42 controlled apical-basal polarity regulates intestinal stem cell to transit amplifying cell fate transition via YAP-EGF-mTOR signaling

Project description:Epithelial polarity is controlled by a polarity machinery including the Rho GTPase CDC42 and Scribble/PAR. By using intestinal stem cell (ISC)-specific deletion of CDC42 in Olfm4-IRES-eGFPCreERT2;CDC42flox/flox mice, we found that ISC-initiated CDC42 loss caused a drastic hyper-proliferation of transit amplifying (TA) cells and disrupted epithelial polarity. CDC42-null crypts displayed expanded TA cell and diminished ISC populations, accompanied by elevated hippo signaling via YAP/TAZ - Ereg and mTOR activation, independent from canonical Wnt signaling. YAP/TAZ conditional knockout restored the balance of ISC/TA cell populations and crypt proliferation but did not rescue the polarity in CDC42-null small intestine. mTOR or EGFR inhibitor treatment of CDC42 KO mice exhibited similar rescuing effects without affecting YAP/TAZ signaling. Inducible ablation of Scribble in intestinal epithelial cells mimics that of CDC42 KO defects including crypt hyperplasia and hippo signaling activation. Mammalian epithelial polarity regulates ISC and TA cell fate and proliferation via a hippo-Ereg-mTOR cascade.

aPKC controls endothelial growth by modulating c-Myc via FoxO1 DNA binding ability

Project description:Strict regulation of proliferation is vital for development, whereas unregulated cell proliferation is a fundamental characteristic of cancer. The polarity protein atypical protein kinase C lambda/iota (aPKC lambda) is associated with cell proliferation through unknown mechanisms. In endothelial cells, suppression of aPKC lambda impairs proliferation despite hyperactivated mitogenic signaling. Here we show that aPKC lambda phosphorylates the DNA binding domain of forkhead box O1 (FoxO1) transcription factor, a gatekeeper of endothelial growth. Although mitogenic signaling excludes FoxO1 from the nucleus, consequently increasing c-Myc abundance and proliferation, aPKC lambda controls c-Myc expression via FoxO1/miR-34c signaling without affecting its localization. We find this pathway is strongly activated in the malignant vascular sarcoma, angiosarcoma, and aPKC inhibition reduces c-Myc expression and proliferation of angiosarcoma cells. Moreover, FoxO1 phosphorylation at Ser218 and aPKC expression correlates with poor patient prognosis. Our findings may provide a new therapeutic strategy for treatment of malignant cancers, like angiosarcoma.

The exon junction complex regulates the splicing of cell polarity gene dlg1 to control Wingless signaling in development

Project description:Wingless (Wg)/Wnt signaling is conserved in all metazoan animals and plays critical roles in development. The Wg/Wnt morphogen reception is essential for signal activation, whose activity is mediated through the receptor complex and a scaffold protein Dishevelled (Dsh). We report here that the exon junction complex (EJC) activity is indispensable for Wg signaling by maintaining an appropriate level of Dsh protein for Wg ligand reception in Drosophila. Transcriptome analyses in Drosophila wing imaginal discs indicate that the EJC controls the splicing of the cell polarity gene disc large 1 (dlg1), whose coding protein directly interacts with Dsh. Genetic and biochemical experiments demonstrate that Dlg1 protein acts independently from its role in cell polarity to protect Dsh protein from lysosomal degradation. More importantly, human orthologous Dlg protein is sufficient to promote Dvl protein stabilization and Wnt signaling activity, thus revealing a conserved regulatory mechanism of Wg/Wnt signaling by Dlg and EJC. whole transcriptome RNA-seq to examine mRNAs extracted from wildtype (i.e. overexpressing lacZ) and pre-EJC-defective (i.e. overexpressing tsu RNAi) wing discs, respectively.
