Abstract A competent DNA damage response (DDR) helps prevent cancer, but once cancer has arisen DDR can blunt the efficacy of chemotherapy and radiotherapy which cause lethal DNA breakage in cancer cells. Thus, blocking DDR may improve the efficacy of these modalities. Here we report a new DDR mechanism that interfaces with inflammatory signaling and might be blocked to improve anticancer outcomes. Specifically, we report that the ubiquitin-editing enzyme A20 binds and inhibits the E3 ubiquitin ligase RNF168, which is responsible for regulating histone H2A turnover critical for proper DNA repair. A20 induced after DNA damage disrupted RNF168-H2A interaction in a manner independent of its enzymatic activity. Further, it inhibited accumulation of RNF168 and downstream repair protein 53BP1 during DNA repair. A20 was also required for disassembly of RNF168 and 53BP1 from damage sites after repair. Conversely, A20 deletion increased the efficiency of error-prone non-homologous DNA end-joining and decreased error-free DNA homologous recombination, destablizing the genome and increasing sensitivity to DNA damage. In clinical specimens of invasive breast carcinoma, A20 was widely overexpressed consistent with its candidacy as a therapeutic target. Taken together, our findings suggest A20 is critical for proper functioning of the DDR in cancer cells and it establishes a new link between this NF-κB regulated ubiquitin-editing enzyme and the DDR pathway. 2 Downloaded from cancerres.aacrjournals.org on October 2, 2021. © 2017 American Association for Cancer Research.

Introduction Mammalian cells are exposed to various physical and chemical agents that induce DNA damage. A single cell is likely to encounter tens of thousands of DNA lesions per day (1, 2). DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) are among the most dangerous types of DNA damage, and unrepaired or incorrectly repaired DSBs lead to genome instability, cancer and aging (3, 4). To maintain genomic integrity, cells have evolved a set of complex signaling cascades known as the DNA damage response (DDR) (5). In response to DSBs, checkpoint kinase ATM (Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated) phosphorylates H2AX (also designated as γH2AX) near the damage sites, leading to recruitment and phosphorylation of MDC1 (6, 7). In addition to kinase signaling, ubiquitination also plays an important role in the DDR. E3 ligase RNF8 is recruited by phosphorylated MDC1 and ubiquitinates histone H1 (8). Next, another E3 ligase, RNF168, is recruited to catalyze monoubiquitination of H2A and H2AX at Lys13 and Lys15, which initiates the subsequent formation of a lysine 63-linked polyubiquitin chain. The ubiquitin signaling catalyzed by the RNF8/RNF168 cascade promotes recruitment of downstream repair proteins such as 53BP1 (9, 10). Error-free homologous recombination (HR) and error-prone non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) are the major pathways to repair DSBs (1, 3). 53BP1 is a crucial effector that promotes DSB repair through NHEJ (3, 11). NHEJ is important for maintaining genome stability; however, over-use of NHEJ for repair leads to chromosomal translocation and genome instability (12, 13). Therefore, a proper cellular response to DNA damage is crucial for the maintenance of normal cell function. For instance, defective DNA repair results in a human immunodeficiency disorder called RIDDLE (radio sensitivity, immunodeficiency dysmorphic features and learning difficulties) syndrome and enhanced DNA repair capacity renders cancer cells resistant to radiotherapy and chemotherapy (14, 15). This connection reveals the importance of delicate regulation of the DDR at DSBs. 3 Downloaded from cancerres.aacrjournals.org on October 2, 2021. © 2017 American Association for Cancer Research.

In addition to E3 ligases, deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs) also participate in the DDR pathway through regulating H2A ubiquitination. The human genome encodes approximately 90 DUBs, which are divided into five families: UCH (ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolases), USP (ubiquitin specific proteases), OTU (ovarian tumor proteases), Josephin and JAMM (JAB1/MPN/Mov34 metalloenzyme). So far, most of the identified DUBs that antagonize DSB-induced H2A ubiquitination belong to the USP family. USP3 and USP44 abolish accumulation of RNF168 and 53BP1 at DNA damage sites (16, 17). Recently, USP51 was demonstrated to specifically deubiquitinate H2A at Lys13 and Lys15 and fine-tune the DDR (18). USP16 deubiquitinates H2A at Lys 119 and represses gene transcription (19). OTUB1 is the only reported deubiquitinating enzyme in the OTU family that inhibits RNF168- mediated H2A ubiquitination. Independent of its DUB catalytic activity, OTUB1 antagonizes H2A ubiquitination via direct binding to and inhibition of E2 UBC13 (20). Although recent studies have revealed the importance of deubiquitinating enzymes in tightly controlling histone ubiquitination during the DDR, it remains unclear whether other DUBs from the OTU family can regulate DSB-induced H2A ubiquitination and the DDR. TNFAIP3/A20, a member of the OTU deubiquitinase family, is a primary protein expressed in human venous endothelial cells in response to TNF, IL-1, and LPS. Recent studies reveal that A20 is also expressed in other cell types in response to stimuli such as H2O2 and TPA (21). The most well-studied function of A20 is negative regulation of inflammation and immunity (22). In mice, knocking out A20 results in severe inflammation and cachexia, followed by death two weeks after birth (23). Moreover, several studies have identified somatic mutations, deletion and aberrant expression of the TNFAIP3/A20 gene in various kinds of tumors (24-26). These studies reveal the importance of fully exploring the functions of A20 and its connection with tumors. 4 Downloaded from cancerres.aacrjournals.org on October 2, 2021. © 2017 American Association for Cancer Research.

Here, we identify A20/TNFAIP3 as a negative regulator of RNF168-mediated ubiquitination of H2A Lys13,15 (H2AK13,15ub). We find that NF-κB is activated in response to DNA damage and binds to the A20 promoter, leading to up-regulation of A20 expression. Subsequently, more A20 binds to chromatin and regulates the DDR. Deletion of A20 increases the persistence of RNF168 and 53BP1 foci at DNA damage sites and genome instability. Importantly, A20 is often up-regulated in invasive breast carcinomas, and knockout of A20 increases the sensitivity of cancer cells to radiotherapy and chemotherapy, suggesting that A20 is a potential target for cancer therapy. 5 Downloaded from cancerres.aacrjournals.org on October 2, 2021. © 2017 American Association for Cancer Research.

    Patterns of DNA methylation on the human X chromosome and use in analyzing X-chromosome inactivation by Allison Marie Cotton B.Sc., The University of Guelph, 2005 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (Medical Genetics) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) January 2012 © Allison Marie Cotton, 2012 Abstract The process of X-chromosome inactivation achieves dosage compensation between mammalian males and females. In females one X chromosome is transcriptionally silenced through a variety of epigenetic modifications including DNA methylation. Most X-linked genes are subject to X-chromosome inactivation and only expressed from the active X chromosome. On the inactive X chromosome, the CpG island promoters of genes subject to X-chromosome inactivation are methylated in their promoter regions, while genes which escape from X- chromosome inactivation have unmethylated CpG island promoters on both the active and inactive X chromosomes. The first objective of this thesis was to determine if the DNA methylation of CpG island promoters could be used to accurately predict X chromosome inactivation status. The second objective was to use DNA methylation to predict X-chromosome inactivation status in a variety of tissues. A comparison of blood, muscle, kidney and neural tissues revealed tissue-specific X-chromosome inactivation, in which 12% of genes escaped from X-chromosome inactivation in some, but not all, tissues. X-linked DNA methylation analysis of placental tissues predicted four times higher escape from X-chromosome inactivation than in any other tissue. Despite the hypomethylation of repetitive elements on both the X chromosome and the autosomes, no changes were detected in the frequency or intensity of placental Cot-1 holes.

Here, we report zonation- dependent transcriptomic changes in aged mouse brain endothelial cells (ECs), which pro- minently implicate altered immune/cytokine signaling in ECs of all vascular segments, and functional changes impacting the blood–brain barrier (BBB) and glucose/energy metabolism especially in capillary ECs (capECs). An overrepresentation of Alzheimer disease (AD) GWAS genes is evident among the human orthologs of the differentially expressed genes of aged capECs, while comparative analysis revealed a subset of concordantly downregulated, functionally important genes in human AD brains. Treatment with exenatide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist, strongly reverses aged mouse brain EC transcriptomic changes and BBB leakage, with associated attenuation of microglial priming. We thus revealed tran- scriptomic alterations underlying brain EC ageing that are complex yet pharmacologically reversible.

  • A Yeast Phenomic Model for the Influence of Warburg Metabolism on Genetic Buffering of Doxorubicin Sean M
    Santos and Hartman Cancer & Metabolism (2019) 7:9 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40170-019-0201-3 RESEARCH Open Access A yeast phenomic model for the influence of Warburg metabolism on genetic buffering of doxorubicin Sean M. Santos and John L. Hartman IV* Abstract Background: The influence of the Warburg phenomenon on chemotherapy response is unknown. Saccharomyces cerevisiae mimics the Warburg effect, repressing respiration in the presence of adequate glucose. Yeast phenomic experiments were conducted to assess potential influences of Warburg metabolism on gene-drug interaction underlying the cellular response to doxorubicin. Homologous genes from yeast phenomic and cancer pharmacogenomics data were analyzed to infer evolutionary conservation of gene-drug interaction and predict therapeutic relevance. Methods: Cell proliferation phenotypes (CPPs) of the yeast gene knockout/knockdown library were measured by quantitative high-throughput cell array phenotyping (Q-HTCP), treating with escalating doxorubicin concentrations under conditions of respiratory or glycolytic metabolism. Doxorubicin-gene interaction was quantified by departure of CPPs observed for the doxorubicin-treated mutant strain from that expected based on an interaction model. Recursive expectation-maximization clustering (REMc) and Gene Ontology (GO)-based analyses of interactions identified functional biological modules that differentially buffer or promote doxorubicin cytotoxicity with respect to Warburg metabolism. Yeast phenomic and cancer pharmacogenomics data were integrated to predict differential gene expression causally influencing doxorubicin anti-tumor efficacy. Results: Yeast compromised for genes functioning in chromatin organization, and several other cellular processes are more resistant to doxorubicin under glycolytic conditions. Thus, the Warburg transition appears to alleviate requirements for cellular functions that buffer doxorubicin cytotoxicity in a respiratory context.

    Fish and Shellfish Immunology 84 (2019) 857–864 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Fish and Shellfish Immunology journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/fsi Full length article A20 (tnfaip3) is a negative feedback regulator of RIG-I-Mediated IFN induction in teleost T Emilie Mérour, Raphaël Jami, Annie Lamoureux, Julie Bernard, Michel Brémont, ∗ Stéphane Biacchesi VIM, INRA, Université Paris-Saclay, 78350, Jouy-en-Josas, France ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: Interferon production is tightly regulated in order to prevent excessive immune responses. The RIG-I signaling A20 pathway, which is one of the major pathways inducing the production of interferon, is therefore finely regulated TNFAIP3 through the participation of different molecules such as A20 (TNFAIP3). A20 is a negative key regulatory factor RIG-I of the immune response. Although A20 has been identified and actively studied in mammals, nothing is known Interferon about its putative function in lower vertebrates. In this study, we sought to define the involvement of fish A20 Teleost orthologs in the regulation of RIG-I signaling. We showed that A20 completely blocked the activation of IFN and ISG promoters mediated by RIG-I. Furthermore, A20 expression in fish cells was sufficient to reverse the antiviral state induced by the expression of a constitutively active form of RIG-I, thus allowing the efficient replication of a fish rhabdovirus, the viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus (VHSV). We brought evidence that A20 interrupted RIG-I signaling at the level of TBK1 kinase, a critical point of convergence for many different pathways that activates important transcription factors involved in the expression of many cytokines.

Strategy summary: The Ttc39a gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_153392 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000028555 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 4. 18 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 1 and the TAG stop codon in exon 18 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000064129). Exon 3~5 will be selected as conditional knockout region (cKO region). Deletion of this region should result in the loss of function of the Mouse Ttc39a gene. To engineer the targeting vector, homologous arms and cKO region will be generated by PCR using BAC clone RP23-110F24 as template. Cas9, gRNA and targeting vector will be co-injected into fertilized eggs for cKO Mouse production. The pups will be genotyped by PCR followed by sequencing analysis. Note: Exon 3 starts from about 8.33% of the coding region. The knockout of Exon 3~5 will result in frameshift of the gene. The size of intron 2 for 5'-loxP site insertion: 5201 bp, and the size of intron 5 for 3'-loxP site insertion: 3358 bp. The size of effective cKO region: ~2297 bp. The cKO region does not have any other known gene.
