Project description:The p53 family is known as a family of transcription factors with functions in tumor suppression and development. Whereas the central DNA binding domain is highly conserved among the three family members p53, p63 and p73, the C-terminal domains (CTDs) are diverse and subject to alternative splicing and post-translational modification. Here we demonstrate that the CTDs strongly influence DNA binding and transcriptional activity. While p53 and the p73 isoform p73gamma have basic CTDs and form weak sequence-specific protein-DNA complexes, the major p73 isoforms alpha, beta and delta have neutral CTDs and bind DNA strongly. A basic CTD has been previously shown to enable sliding along the DNA backbone and to facilitate the search for binding sites in the complex genome. Our experiments, however, reveal that a basic CTD also reduces protein-DNA complex stability, intranuclear mobility, promoter occupancy in vivo, transgene activation and induction of cell cycle arrest or apoptosis. A basic CTD in p53 and p73gamma therefore provides both positive and negative regulatory functions presumably to enable rapid switching of protein activity in response to stress. In contrast, most p73 isoforms exhibit constitutive DNA binding activity consistent with a predominant role in developmental control. Keywords: Adenoviros, p73 / p53

Our experiments, however, reveal that a basic CTD also reduces protein-DNA complex stability, intranuclear mobility, promoter occupancy in vivo, target gene activation and induction of cell cycle arrest or apoptosis. A basic CTD therefore provides both positive and negative regulatory functions presumably to enable rapid switching of protein activity in response to stress. The different DNA-binding characteristics of the p53 family members could therefore reflect their predominant role in the cellular stress response (p53) or developmental processes (p73).

Project description:To evaluate the effect on lincRNA expression by p53 family members, we overexpressed p53 family members in H1299 cells and evaluated the lincRNA expression by microarray analysis. lincRNA expression was measured in H1299 cells infected with adenovirus expressing LacZ, p53, p63a, p63g, p73a and p73b.

Project description:The p53 family comprises the tumor suppressor p53 and the structural homologs p63 and p73. How the three family members cooperate in tumor suppression remains unclear. Here, we report different but complementary functions of the individual members for regulating retinoblastoma protein (RB) function during myogenic differentiation. Whereas p53 transactivates the retinoblastoma gene, p63 and p73 induce the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p57 to maintain RB in an active, hypophosphorylated state. DeltaNp73 inhibits these functions of the p53 family in differentiation control, prevents myogenic differentiation, and enables cooperating oncogenes to transform myoblasts to tumorigenicity. DeltaNp73 is frequently overexpressed in rhabdomyosarcoma and essential for tumor progression in vivo. These findings establish differentiation control as a key tumor suppressor activity of the p53 family. Keywords: oligonucleotide

Project description:Advanced colorectal cancer (CRC) is an unresolved clinical problem. Epigenetic drugs belonging to the group of histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) may combat CRC in rationally designed treatment schedules. Unfortunately, there is sparse evidence on molecular mechanisms and markers that determine cellular sensitivity to HDACi. Irinotecan is widely used to treat CRC and causes replication stress (RS) and DNA damage as topoisomerase-I inhibitor. We applied irinotecan and the class I HDACi entinostat (MS-275) to isogenic p53-positive and -negative CRC cells. Combinations of irinotecan and MS-275 evoke mitochondrial damage, caspase-mediated apoptosis, and RS-associated DNA damage synergistically and p53-dependently. Targeted mass spectrometry and immunoblot show that irinotecan induces phosphorylation, acetylation, and accumulation of p53 and its target genes. Addition of MS-275 augments the irinotecan-induced acetylation of C-terminal lysine residues of p53 but decreases its phosphorylation and p53 target gene induction. Furthermore, MS-275 increases the amount of acetylated p53 at mitochondria and dysregulates the expression of pro- and anti-apoptotic BCL2 proteins in irinotecan-treated cells. Regarding DNA repair, we see that MS-275 represses the homologous recombination (HR) filament protein RAD51, which limits DNA damage and pro-apoptotic effects of irinotecan. These data suggest that key class I HDAC-dependent functions of p53 in cells with RS are linked to mitochondrial damage and a breakdown of HR. Most importantly, combinations of irinotecan plus MS-275 also kill short-term primary CRC cell cultures and organoids from CRC patients but spare organoids of adjacent matched normal tissue. Thus, irinotecan/HDACi treatment is a promising new approach for the therapy of p53-proficient tumors with clinically tractable inhibitors.
