Background and References This gene encodes a member of the DnaJ family of proteins, which act as heat shock protein 70 cochaperones. Heat shock proteins facilitate protein folding, trafficking, prevention of aggregation, and proteolytic degradation. Members of this family are characterized by a highly conserved N-terminal J domain, a glycine/phenylalanine-rich BACKGROUND: region, four CxxCxGxG zinc finger repeats, and a C-terminal substrate-binding domain. The J domain mediates the interaction with heat shock protein 70 to recruit substrates and regulate ATP hydrolysis activity. In humans, this gene has been implicated in positive regulation of virus replication through co-option by the influenza A virus. Several pseudogenes of this gene are found on other chromosomes.

  • Allele-Specific Silencing of Mutant Ataxin-7 in SCA7 Patient-Derived
    European Journal of Human Genetics (2014) 22, 1369–1375 & 2014 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 1018-4813/14 www.nature.com/ejhg ARTICLE Allele-specific silencing of mutant Ataxin-7 in SCA7 patient-derived fibroblasts Janine Scholefield1,3, Lauren Watson1,2,3, Danielle Smith2, Jacquie Greenberg2 and Matthew JA Wood*,1,2 Polyglutamine (polyQ) disorders are inherited neurodegenerative conditions defined by a common pathogenic CAG repeat expansion leading to a toxic gain-of-function of the mutant protein. Consequences of this toxicity include activation of heat- shock proteins (HSPs), impairment of the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway and transcriptional dysregulation. Several studies in animal models have shown that reducing levels of toxic protein using small RNAs would be an ideal therapeutic approach for such disorders, including spinocerebellar ataxia-7 (SCA7). However, testing such RNA interference (RNAi) effectors in genetically appropriate patient cell lines with a disease-relevant phenotype has yet to be explored. Here, we have used primary adult dermal fibroblasts from SCA7 patients and controls to assess the endogenous allele-specific silencing of ataxin-7 by two distinct siRNAs. We further identified altered expression of two disease-relevant transcripts in SCA7 patient cells: a twofold increase in levels of the HSP DNAJA1 and a twofold decrease in levels of the de-ubiquitinating enzyme, UCHL1. After siRNA treatment, the expression of both genes was restored towards normal levels. To our knowledge, this is the first time that allele- specific silencing of mutant ataxin-7, targeting a common SNP, has been demonstrated in patient cells. These findings highlight the advantage of an allele-specific RNAi-based therapeutic approach, and indicate the value of primary patient-derived cells as useful models for mechanistic studies and for measuring efficacy of RNAi effectors on a patient-to-patient basis in the polyQ diseases.

Heat-shock proteins (HSPs) play a crucial role in maintaining protein stability for cell survival during stress-induced insults. Overexpression of HSPs in cancer cells results in antiapoptotic activity contributing to cancer cell survival and restricting the efficacy of cytotoxic chemotherapy, which continues to play an important role in the treatment of many cancers, including triple- negative breast cancer (TNBC). First-line therapy for TNBC includes anthracycline antibiotics, which are associated with serious dose-dependent side effects and the development of resistance. We previously identified YDJ1, which encodes a heat-shock protein 40 (HSP40), as an important factor in the cellular response to anthracyclines in yeast, with mutants displaying over 100- fold increased sensitivity to doxorubicin. In humans, the DNAJA HSP40s are homologues of YDJ1. To determine the role of DNAJAs in the cellular response to cytotoxic drugs, we investigated their ability to rescue ydj1Δ mutants from exposure to chemotherapeutic agents.

  • The HSP70 Chaperone Machinery: J Proteins As Drivers of Functional Specificity
    REVIEWS The HSP70 chaperone machinery: J proteins as drivers of functional specificity Harm H. Kampinga* and Elizabeth A. Craig‡ Abstract | Heat shock 70 kDa proteins (HSP70s) are ubiquitous molecular chaperones that function in a myriad of biological processes, modulating polypeptide folding, degradation and translocation across membranes, and protein–protein interactions. This multitude of roles is not easily reconciled with the universality of the activity of HSP70s in ATP-dependent client protein-binding and release cycles. Much of the functional diversity of the HSP70s is driven by a diverse class of cofactors: J proteins. Often, multiple J proteins function with a single HSP70. Some target HSP70 activity to clients at precise locations in cells and others bind client proteins directly, thereby delivering specific clients to HSP70 and directly determining their fate. In their native cellular environment, polypeptides are participates in such diverse cellular functions. Their constantly at risk of attaining conformations that pre- functional diversity is remarkable considering that vent them from functioning properly and/or cause them within and across species, HSP70s have high sequence to aggregate into large, potentially cytotoxic complexes. identity.

Guzmán-Vega5 & Stefan T. Arold5 & Duaa Ba-Armah2,6 & Fuad Al Mutairi2,7 Received: 20 November 2018 /Accepted: 14 March 2019 /Published online: 10 April 2019 # Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2019 Abstract Intellectual disability poses a huge burden on the health care system, and it is one of the most common referral reasons to the genetic and child neurology clinic. Intellectual disability (ID) is genetically heterogeneous, and it is associated with several other neurological conditions. Exome sequencing is a robust genetic tool and has revolutionized the process of molecular diagnosis and novel gene discovery. Besides its diagnostic clinical value, novel gene discovery is prime in reverse genetics, when human mutations help to understand the function of a gene and may aid in better understanding of the human brain and nervous system. Using WES, we identified a biallelic truncating variant in DNAJA1 gene (c.511C>T p.(Gln171*) in a multiplex Saudi consan- guineous family. The main phenotype shared between the siblings was intellectual disability and seizure disorder. Keywords Intellectual disability . Seizure disorder . DNAJA1 . Exome sequencing . Chaperonopathy .

Genome Medicine (2020) 12:101 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13073-020-00795-6 RESEARCH Open Access Characterization of the dual functional effects of heat shock proteins (HSPs) in cancer hallmarks to aid development of HSP inhibitors Zhao Zhang1†, Ji Jing2†, Youqiong Ye1, Zhiao Chen1, Ying Jing1, Shengli Li1, Wei Hong1, Hang Ruan1, Yaoming Liu1, Qingsong Hu3, Jun Wang4, Wenbo Li1, Chunru Lin3, Lixia Diao5*, Yubin Zhou2* and Leng Han1* Abstract Background: Heat shock proteins (HSPs), a representative family of chaperone genes, play crucial roles in malignant progression and are pursued as attractive anti-cancer therapeutic targets. Despite tremendous efforts to develop anti-cancer drugs based on HSPs, no HSP inhibitors have thus far reached the milestone of FDA approval. There remains an unmet need to further understand the functional roles of HSPs in cancer. Methods: We constructed the network for HSPs across ~ 10,000 tumor samples from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and ~ 10,000 normal samples from Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx), and compared the network disruption between tumor and normal samples. We then examined the associations between HSPs and cancer hallmarks and validated these associations from multiple independent high-throughput functional screens, including Project Achilles and DRIVE. Finally, we experimentally characterized the dual function effects of HSPs in tumor proliferation and metastasis. Results: We comprehensively analyzed the HSP expression landscape across multiple human cancers and revealed a global disruption of the co-expression network for HSPs. Through analyzing HSP expression alteration and its association with tumor proliferation and metastasis, we revealed dual functional effects of HSPs, in that they can simultaneously influence proliferation and metastasis in opposite directions.

Liver and duodenum transcriptomes of 37 gilts showing high and low residual feed intake (RFI) were analysed by RNA-Seq. Gene expression data was explored through diferential expression (DE) and weighted gene co-expression network analyses. DE analysis revealed 55 and 112 diferentially regulated genes in liver and duodenum tissues, respectively. Clustering genes according to their connectivity resulted in 23 (liver) and 25 (duodenum) modules of genes with a co-expression pattern. Four modules, one in liver (with 444 co-expressed genes) and three in duodenum (gathering 37, 126 and 41 co- expressed genes), were signifcantly associated with FE indicators. Intra-module analyses revealed tissue-specifc candidate genes; 12 of these genes were also identifed as DE between individuals with high and low RFI. Pathways enriched by the list of genes showing DE and/or belonging to FE co-expressed modules included response to oxidative stress, infammation, immune response, lipid metabolism and thermoregulation. Low overlapping between genes identifed in duodenum and liver tissues was observed but heat shock proteins were associated to FE in both tissues.

  • High Temperature Suppressed SSC Self-Renewal Through S Phase Cell Cycle Arrest but Not Apoptosis
    Wang et al. Stem Cell Research & Therapy (2019) 10:227 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13287-019-1335-5 RESEARCH Open Access High temperature suppressed SSC self- renewal through S phase cell cycle arrest but not apoptosis Jia Wang1†, Wei-Jun Gao1†, Shou-Long Deng2, Xiang Liu1, Hua Jia1,3* and Wen-Zhi Ma1,3* Abstract Background: High temperature has a very adverse effect on mammalian spermatogenesis and eventually leads to sub- or infertility through either apoptosis or DNA damage. However, the direct effects of heat stress on the development of spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) are still unknown because SSCs are rare in the testes. Methods: In the present study, we first used in vitro-cultured SSCs to study the effect of heat shock treatment on SSC development. Then, we used RNA-Seq analysis to identify new genes or signalling pathways implicated in the heat stress response. Results: We found that 45 min of 43 °C heat shock treatment significantly inhibited the proliferation of SSCs 2 h after treatment but did not lead to apoptosis. In total, 17,822 genes were identified by RNA-Seq after SSC heat shock treatment. Among these genes, we found that 200 of them had significantly changed expression, with 173 upregulated and 27 downregulated genes. The number of differentially expressed genes in environmental information processing pathways was 37, which was the largest number. We screened the candidate JAK-STAT signalling pathway on the basis of inhibition of cell cycle progression and found that the JAK-STAT pathway was inhibited after heat shock treatment. The flow cytometry results further confirmed that heat stress caused S phase cycle arrest of SSCs.

  • Proteomic Profiling and Genome-Wide Mapping of O-Glcnac Chromatin
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-020-19579-y OPEN Proteomic profiling and genome-wide mapping of O-GlcNAc chromatin-associated proteins reveal an O-GlcNAc-regulated genotoxic stress response Yubo Liu 1,3, Qiushi Chen 2,3, Nana Zhang1, Keren Zhang2, Tongyi Dou1, Yu Cao1, Yimin Liu1, Kun Li1, ✉ ✉ Xinya Hao1, Xueqin Xie1, Wenli Li1, Yan Ren 2 & Jianing Zhang 1 fi 1234567890():,; O-GlcNAc modi cation plays critical roles in regulating the stress response program and cellular homeostasis. However, systematic and multi-omics studies on the O-GlcNAc regu- lated mechanism have been limited. Here, comprehensive data are obtained by a chemical reporter-based method to survey O-GlcNAc function in human breast cancer cells stimulated with the genotoxic agent adriamycin. We identify 875 genotoxic stress-induced O-GlcNAc chromatin-associated proteins (OCPs), including 88 O-GlcNAc chromatin-associated tran- scription factors and cofactors (OCTFs), subsequently map their genomic loci, and construct a comprehensive transcriptional reprogramming network. Notably, genotoxicity-induced O- GlcNAc enhances the genome-wide interactions of OCPs with chromatin. The dynamic binding switch of hundreds of OCPs from enhancers to promoters is identified as a crucial feature in the specific transcriptional activation of genes involved in the adaptation of cancer cells to genotoxic stress. The OCTF nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor-1 (NRF1) is found to be a key response regulator in O-GlcNAc-modulated cellular homeostasis. These results provide a valuable clue suggesting that OCPs act as stress sensors by regulating the expression of various genes to protect cancer cells from genotoxic stress.
