The challenge for precision treatment was due to the fact that little targeted therapeutics are available for HCC. Recent studies show that metabolic and circulating peptides serve as endogenous switches for correcting aberrant cellular plasticity. Here we explored the antitumor activity of low molecular components in human umbilical serum and identifed a high abundance peptide VI‑13 by peptidome analysis, which was recognized as the part of glutamyltransferase signal peptide. We modifed VI‑13 by inserting four arginines and obtained an analog peptide VI‑17 to improve its solubility. Our analyses showed that the peptide VI‑17 induced rapid context‑dependent cell death, and exhibited a higher sensitivity on hepatoma cells, which is attenuated by polyethylene glycol but not necrotic inhibitors such as z‑VAD‑fmk or necrostatin‑1. Morphologically, VI‑17 induced cell swelling, blebbing and membrane rupture with release of cellular ATP and LDH into extracellular media, which is hallmark of oncotic process. Mechanistically, VI‑17 induced cell membrane pore formation, degradation of α‑tubulin via infux of calcium ion. These results indicated that the novel peptide VI‑17 induced oncosis in HCC cells, which could serve as a promising lead for development of therapeutic intervention of HCC.

This repre- sents the first molecular analyses of albinic phenotypes in frogs. Albinos of P. nigromaculatus collected from two different populations were found to suffer from frameshift mutations. These mutations were caused by the insertion of a thymine residue within each of exons 1 and 4, while albinos in a third popula- tion lacked three nucleotides encoding lysine in exon 1. Albinos from the former two P. nigromaculatus populations were also associated with splicing variants of mRNA that lacked either exons 2–4 or exon 4.

  • Ubiquitin-Independent Proteolytic Targeting of Ornithine Decarboxylase
    Ubiquitin-Independent Proteolytic Targeting of Ornithine Decarboxylase Inaugural-Dissertation Zur Erlangung des Doktorgrades der Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftlichen Fakultät der Universität zu Köln vorgelegt von Roshini Beenukumar Renukadevi aus Trivandrum, Kerala, Indien Köln, 2015 Berichterstatter Prof. Dr. Jürgen Dohmen Prof. Dr. Kay Hofmann Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 29 June 2015 “Science is the rational way of revealing the existing realities of nature” My Grandfather Abstract Abstract Protein degradation mediated by the 26S proteasome is fundamental for cell survival in eukaryotes. There are two known routes for substrate presentation to the 26S proteasome- the ubiquitin-dependent route and the ubiquitin-independent route. Ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) is one of the most well-known ubiquitin-independent substrates of the proteasome. It is a homodimeric protein functioning as a rate-limiting enzyme in polyamine biosynthesis. Polyamines regulate ODC levels by a feedback mechanism mediated by the ODC regulator called antizyme. Higher cellular polyamine levels promote translation of antizyme mRNA and inhibit ubiquitin-dependent proteasomal degradation of the antizyme protein. Antizyme binds ODC monomers and targets them to the proteasome without ubiquitylation. The mechanism of this ubiquitin-independent proteasomal degradation is poorly understood. Therefore, the major aim of this study was to investigate the mechanism of ubiquitin-independent degradation of the ODC by the 26S proteasome. We show that polyamines, besides their role in regulating antizyme synthesis and stability, directly enhance antizyme-mediated ODC degradation by the 26S proteasome. Polyamines specifically enhanced the degradation of ODC by the proteasome both in vivo in yeast cells and in a reconstituted in vitro system. ODC is shown to be targeted in a manner quite distinct from ubiquitin-dependent substrates as its degradation was enhanced in a mutant lacking multiple ubiquitin receptors.

Importantly, increasing experimental evidence points to the roles of mitochondrial bioenergetics, dynamics, and signaling in tumorigenesis. Recent studies have shown that many types of cancer cells, including metastatic tumor cells, therapy-resistant tumor cells, and cancer stem cells, are reliant on mitochondrial respiration, and upregulate oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) activity to fuel tumorigenesis. Mitochondrial metabolism is crucial for tumor proliferation, tumor survival, and metastasis. Mitochondrial OXPHOS dependency of cancer has been shown to underlie the development of resistance to chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Furthermore, recent studies have demonstrated that elevated heme synthesis and uptake leads to intensified mitochondrial respiration and ATP generation, thereby promoting tumorigenic functions in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells. Also, lowering heme uptake/synthesis inhibits mitochondrial OXPHOS and effectively reduces oxygen consumption, thereby inhibiting cancer cell proliferation, migration, and tumor growth in NSCLC. Besides metabolic changes, mitochondrial dynamics such as fission and fusion are also altered in cancer cells. These alterations render mitochondria a vulnerable target for cancer therapy. This review summarizes recent advances in the understanding of mitochondrial alterations in cancer cells that contribute to tumorigenesis and the development of drug resistance.

  • Clpap Proteolysis Does Not Require Rotation of the Clpa Unfoldase
    SHORT REPORT ClpAP proteolysis does not require rotation of the ClpA unfoldase relative to ClpP Sora Kim1†, Kristin L Zuromski2†, Tristan A Bell1†, Robert T Sauer1, Tania A Baker1* 1Department of Biology, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, United States; 2Department of Chemistry, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, United States Abstract AAA+ proteases perform regulated protein degradation in all kingdoms of life and consist of a hexameric AAA+ unfoldase/translocase in complex with a self-compartmentalized peptidase. Based on asymmetric features of cryo-EM structures and a sequential hand-over-hand model of substrate translocation, recent publications have proposed that the AAA+ unfoldases ClpA and ClpX rotate with respect to their partner peptidase ClpP to allow function. Here, we test this model by covalently crosslinking ClpA to ClpP to prevent rotation. We find that crosslinked ClpAP complexes unfold, translocate, and degrade protein substrates in vitro, albeit modestly slower than uncrosslinked enzyme controls. Rotation of ClpA with respect to ClpP is therefore not required for ClpAP protease activity, although some flexibility in how the AAA+ ring docks with ClpP may be necessary for optimal function. *For correspondence: Introduction [email protected] The AAA+ (ATPases Associated with diverse cellular Activities) protease subfamily uses the energy †These authors contributed of ATP hydrolysis to disassemble and degrade proteins that are misfolded, deleterious, or unneeded equally to this work (Sauer and Baker, 2011).
