Discovery of a small molecule inhibitor of the UBE2F-CRL5 axis that induces apoptosis and G2/M arrest and confers radiosensitization

ABSTRACT: Protein neddylation modification is catalyzed by a neddylation activating enzyme (NAE, E1), an E2 conjugating enzyme and an E3 ligase. In various types of human cancers, the neddylation pathway was abnormally activated. Our previous study validated that neddylation E2 UBE2F is a promising lung cancer target. However, although NAE inhibitor MLN4924/pevonedistat is currently in few clinical trials for anticancer application, no small molecule was reported that targets UBE2F. Here, we report, for the first time, the discovery, via structure-based virtual screen and chemical optimization, of such a small molecule, designated as HA-9104. HA-9104 binds to UBE2F, reduces its protein levels, and consequently inhibits cullin-5 neddylation to inactivate CRL5 (cullin-RING ligase-5) ligase, leading to accumulation of CRL5 substrate, NOXA, to induce apoptosis. Moreover, HA-9104 appears to form the DNA adduct via its 7-azaindole group to induce DNA damage and G2/M arrest. Biologically, HA-9104 effectively suppresses the growth and survival of lung cancer cells and confers radiosensitization in both in vitro cell culture and in vivo xenograft tumor models. Taken together, our study discovered a small molecule HA-9104 that targets the UBE2F-CRL5 axis with anticancer activity alone or in combination with radiation.

Noncanonical assembly, neddylation, and chimeric cullin-RING/RBR ubiquitylation by the 1.8 MDa CUL9 E3 ligase complex

Project description:Ubiquitin ligation is typically executed by hallmark E3 catalytic domains. Two such domains, "cullin-RING" and "RBR", are individually found in several hundred E3 ligases in humans, and collaborate with E2 enzymes to catalyze ubiquitylation. However, the vertebrate-specific CUL9 complex with RBX1 (also called ROC1), of interest due to its tumor suppressive interaction with TP53, uniquely encompasses both cullin-RING and RBR domains. Here, cryo-EM, biochemistry, and cellular assays elucidate a 1.8 MDa hexameric CUL9-RBX1 assembly. Within one dimeric subcomplex, an E2-bound RBR domain is activated by neddylation of its own cullin domain and positioning from the adjacent CUL9-RBX1 in trans. Our data show CUL9 as unique amongst RBX1-bound cullins in dependence on the metazoan-specific UBE2F neddylation enzyme, while the RBR domain protects it from deneddylation. Substrate ubiquitylation relies on both CUL9's neddylated cullin and RBR domains achieving self-assembled and chimeric cullin-RING/RBR E3 ligase activity.

NEDDylated-Cullin 3 mediates the adaptive response to topoisomerase 1 inhibitors (RNA-Seq)

Project description:DNA topoisomerase 1 (Top1) inhibitors are mainstays of anticancer therapy. These drugs trap Top1 on DNA, stabilizing the Top1-cleavage complex (Top1-cc). The accumulation of Top1-ccs perturbs DNA replication fork progression, leading to DNA breaks and cell death. By analyzing the genomic occupancy and activity of Top1, we show that cells adapt to treatment with multiple doses of Top1 inhibitor by promoting the degradation of Top1-ccs, allowing cells to better tolerate subsequent doses of Top1 inhibitor. The E3-RING Cullin 3 Ligase in complex with the BTBD1 and BTBD2 adaptor proteins promote Top1-cc ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation. NEDDylation of Cullin 3 activates this pathway and inhibition of protein NEDDylation or depletion of Cullin 3 sensitizes cancer cells to Top1 inhibitors. Collectively, our data identify a novel NEDD8-Cullin 3 pathway involved in the adaptive response to Top1 inhibitors, which can be targeted to improve the efficacy of Top1 drugs in cancer therapy.

Regulation of stem cell property and drug resistance of cancer cells by targeting transcriptional machinery via inhibition of neddylation

Project description:MLN4924, also known as pevonedistat, is a small molecule inhibitor of NEDD8 activating enzyme (NAE), that inhibits the entire neddylation pathway. As the first-in-class neddylation inhibitor, MLN4924 is currently in Phase I/II clinical trials for anticancer application as a single agent or in combination with chemotherapeutic drugs. MLN4924 has shown impressive anticancer activity by inactivating Cullin-RING ligases (CRLs) to cause accumulation of tumor suppressor substrates. Whether MLN4924 regulates the RNA expression by modulating the levels of transcription factor/repressor remain elusive. In this study, we treated A549 lung cancer cells with MLN4924 at 0.25 or 0.5 µM for 8 or 24 hrs, respectively, followed by RNAseq analysis. Here we found that MLN4924 significantly decreases the SOX2 mRNA level. The mechanistic study revealed that MLN4924 inhibits FBXW2 E3 to cause MSX2 accumulation, which in turn transcriptionally represses SOX2, leading to suppression of stem cell property and sensitization of cancer cells to tamoxifen.

SENP8 limits aberrant neddylation of NEDD8 pathway components to promote cullin- 1 RING ubiquitin ligase function

Project description:NEDD8 is a ubiquitin-like modifier most well-studied for its role in activating the largest family of ubiquitin E3 ligases, the cullin-RING ligases (CRLs). While many non-cullin neddylation substrates have been proposed over the years, validation of true NEDD8 targets has been challenging, as overexpression of exogenous NEDD8 can trigger NEDD8 conjugation through the ubiquitylation machinery. Here, we developed a deconjugation-resistant form of NEDD8 to stabilize the neddylated form of cullins and other non-cullin substrates. Using this strategy, we identified Ubc12, a NEDD8-specific E2 conjugating enzyme, as a substrate for auto-neddylation both in vitro and in cells. Furthermore, we identified SENP8/DEN1 as the protease that counteracts Ubc12 auto-neddylation, and observed aberrant neddylation of Ubc12 and other NEDD8 conjugation pathway components in engineered SENP8-deficient cells. Importantly, loss of SENP8 function contributes to reduced CRL activity, accumulation of CRL substrates, and defective cell cycle progression. Thus, our study highlights the importance of SENP8 in maintaining proper neddylation levels and CRL-dependent proteostasis, implicating this protease as a potential therapeutic target for inhibiting CRL activity.

RNA Sequencing of Wild Type and SENP8+/- BMDM Transcriptomes after Treated with CD47-coated Beads

Project description:Neddylation is coupled with tumor-cell survival by its well-characterized substrates Cullins. However, how neddylation impacts the tumor immune microenvironment is not clear. SENP8 deconjugates NEDD8 from non-Cullin targets to maintain the dynamic and reversible neddylation equilibrium. CD47 treated SENP8+/+ and SENP8+/- BMDMs were detected to show impacted gene transcription.

Micro RNA Expression data from DU145 shDCUN1D1

Project description:Defective in Cullin Neddylation 1 Domain Containing 1 (DCUN1D1) is an E3 ligase for neddylation, a post translational process similar to, and that runs in parallel with the ubiquitin proteasome pathway. Although being established as an oncogene in various squamous cell carcinomas, the role of DCUN1D1 in prostate cancer has not been explored. Here we used microarray analysis to determine the set of genes regulated by DCUN1D1 in prostate cancer cells. Using the prostate cancer DU145 cell line as model, and a lentivirus encoding shRNA-DCUN1D1, we generated DCUN1D1 knockdown cell lines. Microarray analysis identified deregulation of key gene expression, cellular growth and proliferation, developmental, cell death and cancer pathways as possible mechanisms mediated by DCUN1D1 in prostate cancer.

Neddylation modification on cGAS of human and mouse

Project description:The cytosolic DNA sensor cyclic GMP-AMP (cGAMP) synthetase (cGAS) has emerged as a fundamental component fueling the anti-pathogen immunity. Because of its pivotal role in initiating innate immune response, the activity of cGAS must be tightly fine-tuned to maintain immune homeostasis in antiviral response. Here, we reported that neddylation modification was indispensable for appropriate cGAS-STING signaling activation. Blocking neddylation pathway using neddylation inhibitor MLN4924 substantially impaired the induction of type I interferon and proinflammatory cytokines, which was selectively dependent on Nedd8 E2 enzyme Ube2m. We further found that deficiency of the Nedd8 E3 ligase Rnf111 greatly attenuated DNA-triggered cGAS activation while not affecting cGAMP induced activation of STING, demonstrating that Rnf111 was the Nedd8 E3 ligase of cGAS. We further identified Lys231 and Lys421 as the key neddylation sites in human cGAS. Mechanistically, Rnf111 interacted with and polyneddylated cGAS, which in turn promoted its dimerization and enhanced the DNA-binding ability, leading to proper cGAS-STING pathway activation. In the same line, the Ube2m or Rnf111 deficiency mice exhibited severe defects in innate immune response and were susceptible to HSV-1 infection. Collectively, our study uncovered a vital role of the Ube2m-Rnf111 neddylation axis in promoting the activity of the cGAS-STING pathway and highlighted the importance of neddylation modification in antiviral defense.

Transcriptome data of Foxp3-Cre, Rbx1&Sag-deficient Treg cells from mice

Project description:Neddylation is necessary for activation of Cullin-RING Ligases (CRLs) which degrade various immune regulatory proteins. Our recent study showed that while depletion of neddylation E2-E3 pair Ube2f-Sag in regulatory T cells (Treg cells) had no obvious phenotype, the same depletion of either Ube2m or Rbx1 caused inflammation disorders with different severity. Whether these E2s or E3s compensate each other in functional regulations of Treg cells is, however, previously unknown. In this report, we generated Foxp3Cre;Ube2mfl/fl;Ube2ffl/fl or Foxp3Cre;Rbx1fl/fl;Sagfl/fl double null mice by simultaneously deletion of both neddylation E2s or E3s in Treg cells, respectively. Remarkably, Ube2m&Ube2f double null mice developed much severe autoimmune phenotypes than Ube2m-null mice, indicating Ube2m significantly compensates Ube2f in Treg cells. The minor worsen autoimmune phenotypes seen at very early stage in Rbx1&Sag double null than Rbx1-null mice, is likely due to already severe phenotypes of the later, indicating a minor compensation of Rbx1 for Sag. The RNA profiling-based analyses revealed that up- and down-regulations of few signaling pathways in Treg cells are associated with the severity of autoimmune phenotypes. Finally, severer inflammation phenotypes seen in mice with double E3-null than with double E2-null Treg cells indicate a neddylation-independent mechanism of two E3s, also known to serve as the RING component of CRLs in regulation of Treg cell fitness.
