  • Oxidative Stress-Induced P53 Activity Is Enhanced by a Redox-Sensitive TP53INP1 Sumoylation
    Cell Death and Differentiation (2014) 21, 1107–1118 & 2014 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 1350-9047/14 www.nature.com/cdd Oxidative stress-induced p53 activity is enhanced by a redox-sensitive TP53INP1 SUMOylation S Peuget1,2, T Bonacci1,2, P Soubeyran1, J Iovanna1 and NJ Dusetti*,1 Tumor Protein p53-Induced Nuclear Protein 1 (TP53INP1) is a tumor suppressor that modulates the p53 response to stress. TP53INP1 is one of the key mediators of p53 antioxidant function by promoting the p53 transcriptional activity on its target genes. TP53INP1 expression is deregulated in many types of cancers including pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma in which its decrease occurs early during the preneoplastic development. In this work, we report that redox-dependent induction of p53 transcriptional activity is enhanced by the oxidative stress-induced SUMOylation of TP53INP1 at lysine 113. This SUMOylation is mediated by PIAS3 and CBX4, two SUMO ligases especially related to the p53 activation upon DNA damage. Importantly, this modification is reversed by three SUMO1-specific proteases SENP1, 2 and 6. Moreover, TP53INP1 SUMOylation induces its binding to p53 in the nucleus under oxidative stress conditions. TP53INP1 mutation at lysine 113 prevents the pro-apoptotic, antiproliferative and antioxidant effects of TP53INP1 by impairing the p53 response on its target genes p21, Bax and PUMA. We conclude that TP53INP1 SUMOylation is essential for the regulation of p53 activity induced by oxidative stress. Cell Death and Differentiation (2014) 21, 1107–1118; doi:10.1038/cdd.2014.28; published online 7 March 2014 Maintaining homeostasis in response to the broad range of stress is strictly dependent on p53, and TP53INP1-deficient intrinsic and extrinsic aggressions is a challenge for cells.

  • TP53INP1, a Tumor Suppressor, Interacts with LC3 and ATG8-Family Proteins Through the LC3-Interacting Region (LIR) and Promotes Autophagy-Dependent Cell Death
    Cell Death and Differentiation (2012) 19, 1525–1535 & 2012 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 1350-9047/12 www.nature.com/cdd TP53INP1, a tumor suppressor, interacts with LC3 and ATG8-family proteins through the LC3-interacting region (LIR) and promotes autophagy-dependent cell death M Seillier1,2,4, S Peuget1,2,4, O Gayet1,2, C Gauthier1,2, P N’Guessan1,2, M Monte3, A Carrier1,2, JL Iovanna1,2 and NJ Dusetti*,1,2 TP53INP1 (tumor protein 53-induced nuclear protein 1) is a tumor suppressor, whose expression is downregulated in cancers from different organs. It was described as a p53 target gene involved in cell death, cell-cycle arrest and cellular migration. In this work, we show that TP53INP1 is also able to interact with ATG8-family proteins and to induce autophagy-dependent cell death. In agreement with this finding, we observe that TP53INP1, which is mainly nuclear, relocalizes in autophagosomes during autophagy where it is eventually degraded. TP53INP1-LC3 interaction occurs via a functional LC3-interacting region (LIR). Inactivating mutations of this sequence abolish TP53INP1-LC3 interaction, relocalize TP53INP1 in autophagosomes and decrease TP53INP1 ability to trigger cell death. Interestingly, TP53INP1 binds to ATG8-family proteins with higher affinity than p62, suggesting that it could partially displace p62 from autophagosomes, modifying thereby their composition. Moreover, silencing the expression of autophagy related genes (ATG5 or Beclin-1) or inhibiting caspase activity significantly decreases cell death induced by TP53INP1. These data indicate that cell death observed after TP53INP1-LC3 interaction depends on both autophagy and caspase activity. We conclude that TP53INP1 could act as a tumor suppressor by inducing cell death by caspase- dependent autophagy.

Received December 12, 2013; Accepted December 31, 2013; Epub January 15, 2014; Published February 1, 2014 Abstract: MicroRNA-155 (miR-155) is overexpressed in many human cancers; however, the function of miR-155 is largely unknown in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). In the present study, we found that miR-155 is dra- matically increased in ESCC tissues compared with the paired adjacent normal tissues, which suggested that miR- 155 acts as an oncogene in ESCC. We predicted that tumor protein p53-induced nuclear protein 1 (TP53INP1) is a candidate target gene of miR-155 given that miR-155 expression decreased mRNA and protein levels of TP53INP1 as determined by RT-PCR and Western blot analysis. In addition, miR-155 and TP53INP1 showed a negative relation in ESCC tissues. Dual luciferase-based reporter assay indicated direct regulation of TP53INP1 by miR-155. Further- more, we demonstrated that RNA interference of TP53INP1 increased the proliferation and colonies formation of EC-1 cells. Up-regulation of TP53INP1 abrogated miR-155 induced growth in EC-1 cells and mutation of TP53INP1 in 3’-UTR restored the effects when co-transfected with miR-155.

MOORE SPRING 2013 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology with honors in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Reviewed and approved* by the following: Dr. Yanming Wang Associate Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Thesis Supervisor Dr. Ming Tien Professor of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Honors Advisor Dr. Scott Selleck Professor and Head, Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT The p53 protein responds to cellular stress, like DNA damage and nutrient depravation, by activating cell-cycle arrest, initiating apoptosis, or triggering autophagy (i.e., self eating). p53 also regulates a range of physiological functions, such as immune and inflammatory responses, metabolism, and cell motility. These diverse roles create the need for developing systematic methods to analyze which p53 pathways will be triggered or inhibited under certain conditions. To determine the expression patterns of p53 modifiers and target genes in response to various stresses, an extensive literature review was conducted to compile a quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) primer library consisting of 350 genes involved in apoptosis, immune and inflammatory responses, metabolism, cell cycle control, autophagy, motility, DNA repair, and differentiation as part of the p53 network. Using this library, qRT-PCR was performed in cells with inducible p53 over-expression, DNA-damage, cancer drug treatment, serum starvation, and serum stimulation.

TP53INP1 (H-110): sc-68919 BACKGROUND APPLICATIONS TP53INP1 (tumor protein p53-inducible nuclear protein 1), also known as TP53INP1 (H-110) is recommended for detection of TP53INP1 of human, p53DINP1, SIP or Teap, is a 240 amino acid protein that localizes to nu- mouse and, to a lesser extent, rat origin by Western Blotting (starting dilu - clear bodies and exists as 2 alternatively spliced isoforms, designated tion 1:200, dilution range 1:100-1:1000), immunoprecipitation [1-2 µg per p53DINP1a and p53DINP1b. Expressed ubiquitously with higher expression 100-500 µg of total protein (1 ml of cell lysate)], immunofluorescence (start ing in testis, pancreas and spleen tissue, TP53INP1 functions in response to dilution 1:50, dilution range 1:50-1:500), immunohistochemistry (includ ing double-stranded DNA breaks and regulates p53-mediated apoptosis, specifi - paraffin-embedded sections) (starting dilution 1:50, dilution range 1:50- 1:500) cally by phosphorylating human p53 at Ser 46, an event that leads to cell and solid phase ELISA (starting dilution 1:30, dilution range 1:30-1:3000). death. Additionally, TP53INP1 is thought to interact with p73 and may be TP53INP1 (H-110) is also recommended for detection of TP53INP1 in addi - involved in the regulation of p73-controlled cell cycle progression. TP53INP1 tional species, including equine, canine, bovine and porcine. expression is downregulated in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas, sug - gesting that, via its ability to induce cell death, TP53INP1 plays a role in Suitable for use as control antibody for TP53INP1 siRNA (h): sc-76715, tumor suppression.
