Here, we uncover the existence of a negative feedback loop of IKK. The transcription factor PATZ1 induces protein phosphatase-4 (PP4) regulatory subunit 2 (PP4R2) in an IKK-dependent manner. PP4R2 enhances the binding of PP4 to phosphorylated IKK to inactivate IKK/NF-κB signaling during sustained stimulation by cellular stimuli such as growth factors and inflammatory mediators. Matched pair studies reveal that primary lung cancers express more PATZ1 and PP4R2 than lymph node metastases in patients. Ectopic PATZ1 decreases invasion/colonization of lung cancers and prolongs the survival of xenograft mice. These effects of PATZ1 are reversed by downregulating PP4R2. Our results suggest that PATZ1 and PP4R2 provide negative feedback on IKK/NF-κB signaling to prevent cancer cells from over-stimulation from cellular stimuli; a decline in PATZ1 and PP4R2 is functionally associated with cancer migration/invasion and agents enhancing PATZ1 and PP4R2 are worth exploring to prevent invasion/metastasis of lung cancers.

  • How Does SUMO Participate in Spindle Organization?
    cells Review How Does SUMO Participate in Spindle Organization? Ariane Abrieu * and Dimitris Liakopoulos * CRBM, CNRS UMR5237, Université de Montpellier, 1919 route de Mende, 34090 Montpellier, France * Correspondence: [email protected] (A.A.); [email protected] (D.L.) Received: 5 July 2019; Accepted: 30 July 2019; Published: 31 July 2019 Abstract: The ubiquitin-like protein SUMO is a regulator involved in most cellular mechanisms. Recent studies have discovered new modes of function for this protein. Of particular interest is the ability of SUMO to organize proteins in larger assemblies, as well as the role of SUMO-dependent ubiquitylation in their disassembly. These mechanisms have been largely described in the context of DNA repair, transcriptional regulation, or signaling, while much less is known on how SUMO facilitates organization of microtubule-dependent processes during mitosis. Remarkably however, SUMO has been known for a long time to modify kinetochore proteins, while more recently, extensive proteomic screens have identified a large number of microtubule- and spindle-associated proteins that are SUMOylated. The aim of this review is to focus on the possible role of SUMOylation in organization of the spindle and kinetochore complexes. We summarize mitotic and microtubule/spindle-associated proteins that have been identified as SUMO conjugates and present examples regarding their regulation by SUMO. Moreover, we discuss the possible contribution of SUMOylation in organization of larger protein assemblies on the spindle, as well as the role of SUMO-targeted ubiquitylation in control of kinetochore assembly and function. Finally, we propose future directions regarding the study of SUMOylation in regulation of spindle organization and examine the potential of SUMO and SUMO-mediated degradation as target for antimitotic-based therapies.

  • Identification and Characterization Of
    Title page Title: IDENTIFICATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF MEK1-MIP1-SMEK MULTIPROTEIN SIGNALING COMPLEX Perspective/Commentary By Alex Sobko Running title: MEK1-MIP1-SMEK SIGNALING COMPLEX Abstract In our previous study we characterized Dictyostelium SUMO targeted Ubiquitin Ligase (StUbL) MIP1 that associates with protein kinase MEK1 and targets SUMOylated MEK1 to ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. These modifications happen in response to activation of MEK1 by chemoattractant cAMP. SMEK – second site genetic suppressor of mek1- null phenotype also identified in Dictyostelium. MEK1 and SMEK belong to the same linear pathway, in which MEK1 negatively regulates SMEK, which then negatively regulates chemotaxis and aggregation. RNF4 is mammalian homologue of MIP. RNF4 interacts with human homologue of Dictyostelium SMEK – hSMEK2. We propose existence of evolutionarily conserved MEK1-SMEK signaling complex that upon MEK1 activation and SUMOylation, recruits Ubiqutin Ligase MIP1/RNF4, which, in turn, ubiquitinates SMEK and targets this protein for proteasomal degradation. This could be a mechanism for negative regulation of SMEK by MEK1 signaling. Key words MEK1 / RNF4 / SUMO-targeted Ubiquitin Ligase / Suppressor of MEK (SMEK) / Ubiquitination 1 Text of the article: In our previous study (Sobko et al, 2002) we characterized Dictyostelium SUMO targeted Ubiquitin Ligase (StUbL) MIP1 that associates with protein kinase MEK1 and targets SUMOylated MEK1 to ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation.

Another study from Firtel lab characterized SMEK – second site genetic suppressor of mek1- null phenotype (Mendoza et al, 2005, Mendoza et al, 2007). Deletion of mek1 gene results in the phenotype, in which cells fail to aggregate properly and form very small aggregates, due to severe chemotaxis defect.

We found that RNF4 bound ubiquitin-charged UbcH5a tightly but free UbcH5a weakly. To provide insight into the mechanism of RING-mediated ubiquitylation we docked the UbcH5~ubiquitin thioester onto the RNF4 RING structure. This revealed that with E2 bound to one monomer of RNF4, the thioester-linked ubiquitin could reach across the dimer to engage the other monomer. In this model the “Ile44 hydrophobic patch” of ubiquitin is predicted to engage a conserved tyrosine located at the dimer interface of the RING and mutation of these residues blocked ubiquitylation activity. Thus, dimeric RING ligases are not simply inert scaffolds that bring substrate and E2-loaded ubiquitin into close proximity. Instead, they facilitate ubiquitin transfer by preferentially binding the E2~ubiquitin thioester across the dimer and activating the Europe PMC Funders Author Manuscripts thioester bond for catalysis.

How- ever, it is a heterogenous cancer both between and within classification with a variable clinical course and prognosis: 30-40 % of DLBCL patients relapse. Platinum-based chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, is often administered in the relapse situation. Treatment resistance remains a major hur- dle in DLBCL. DNA repair mechanisms, such as nucleotide excision repair and mismatch repair are important for cisplatin’s mechanism of action, as they are activated by cisplatin-induced crosslinks and mismatches and are therefore implicated in cisplatin resistance.

Because of the broad effects miRNAs can have on different cells and tissues, a network science-based approach is well-equipped to evaluate and identify miRNA candidates and combinations of candidates for the repression of key oncogenic targets. Methods: We first characterized 6 Ewing sarcoma cell lines using paired mRNA and miRNA sequencing. We then estimated a measure of tumor state, which we term network potential, based on both the mRNA gene expression and the underlying protein-protein interaction network in the tumor.
