  • Ubiquitin-Conjugating Enzyme UBE2J1 Negatively Modulates
    Feng et al. Virology Journal (2018) 15:132 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12985-018-1040-5 RESEARCH Open Access Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme UBE2J1 negatively modulates interferon pathway and promotes RNA virus infection Tingting Feng1, Lei Deng1, Xiaochuan Lu1, Wen Pan1, Qihan Wu2* and Jianfeng Dai1,2* Abstract Background: Viral infection activates innate immune pathways and interferons (IFNs) play a pivotal role in the outcome of a viral infection. Ubiquitin modifications of host and viral proteins significantly influence the progress of virus infection. Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2s (UBE2) have the capacity to determine ubiquitin chain topology and emerge as key mediators of chain assembly. Methods: In this study, we screened the functions of 34 E2 genes using an RNAi library during Dengue virus (DENV) infection. RNAi and gene overexpression approaches were used to study the gene function in viral infection and interferon signaling. Results: We found that silencing UBE2J1 significantly impaired DENV infection, while overexpression of UBE2J1 enhanced DENV infection. Further studies suggested that type I IFN expression was significantly increased in UBE2J1 silenced cells and decreased in UBE2J1 overexpressed cells. Reporter assay suggested that overexpression of UBE2J1 dramatically suppressed RIG-I directed IFNβ promoter activation. Finally, we have confirmed that UBE2J1 can facilitate the ubiquitination and degradation of transcription factor IFN regulatory factor 3 (IRF3). Conclusion: These results suggest that UBE2 family member UBE2J1 can negatively regulate type I IFN expression, thereby promote RNA virus infection.

  • Epigenetic Mechanisms Are Involved in the Oncogenic Properties of ZNF518B in Colorectal Cancer
    Epigenetic mechanisms are involved in the oncogenic properties of ZNF518B in colorectal cancer Francisco Gimeno-Valiente, Ángela L. Riffo-Campos, Luis Torres, Noelia Tarazona, Valentina Gambardella, Andrés Cervantes, Gerardo López-Rodas, Luis Franco and Josefa Castillo SUPPLEMENTARY METHODS 1. Selection of genomic sequences for ChIP analysis To select the sequences for ChIP analysis in the five putative target genes, namely, PADI3, ZDHHC2, RGS4, EFNA5 and KAT2B, the genomic region corresponding to the gene was downloaded from Ensembl. Then, zoom was applied to see in detail the promoter, enhancers and regulatory sequences. The details for HCT116 cells were then recovered and the target sequences for factor binding examined. Obviously, there are not data for ZNF518B, but special attention was paid to the target sequences of other zinc-finger containing factors. Finally, the regions that may putatively bind ZNF518B were selected and primers defining amplicons spanning such sequences were searched out. Supplementary Figure S3 gives the location of the amplicons used in each gene. 2. Obtaining the raw data and generating the BAM files for in silico analysis of the effects of EHMT2 and EZH2 silencing The data of siEZH2 (SRR6384524), siG9a (SRR6384526) and siNon-target (SRR6384521) in HCT116 cell line, were downloaded from SRA (Bioproject PRJNA422822, https://www.ncbi. nlm.nih.gov/bioproject/), using SRA-tolkit (https://ncbi.github.io/sra-tools/).

  • Hypoxia Induces P53-Dependent Transactivation and Fas/CD95-Dependent Apoptosis

We analyzed p53-dependent gene and protein expression in response to hypoxia using wild-type p53-carrying or p53 null HCT116 colon carcinoma cells. Hypoxia induced p53 protein levels and p53- dependent apoptosis in these cells. cDNA microarray analysis revealed that only a limited number of genes were regulated by p53 upon hypoxia. Most classical p53 target genes were not upregulated. However, we found that Fas/CD95 was significantly induced in response to hypoxia in a p53-dependent manner, along with several novel p53 target genes including ANXA1, DDIT3/ GADD153 (CHOP), SEL1L and SMURF1. Disruption of Fas/CD95 signalling using anti-Fas-blocking antibody or a caspase 8 inhibitor abrogated p53-induced apoptosis in response to hypoxia. We conclude that hypoxia triggers a p53-dependent gene expression pattern distinct from that induced by other stress agents and that Fas/CD95 is a critical regulator of p53-dependent apoptosis upon hypoxia.

  • Identification of Prognosis Biomarkers of Prostatic Cancer in a Cohort Of
    Current Problems in Cancer 43 (2019) 100503 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Current Problems in Cancer journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/cpcancer Identification of prognosis biomarkers of prostatic cancer in a cohort of 498 patients from TCGA ∗ Zhiqiang Chen , Haiyi Hu Department of Urology, Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, Medical College of Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, China a b s t r a c t Objective: Prostatic cancer (PCa) is the first common cancer in male, and the prognostic variables are ben- eficial for clinical trial design and treatment strategies for PCa. This study was performed to identify more potential biomarkers for the prognosis of patients with PCa. Methods and results: The transcriptome data and survival information of a cohort including 498 subjects with PCa were downloaded from TCGA . A total of 4293 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), including 1362 prognosis-related DEGs, were identified in PCa tissues compared with normal tissues. Upregulated genes, including serine/arginine-rich splicing factors (SRSFs; such as SRSF2, SRSF5, SRSF7 and SRSF8 ), and ubiquitin conjugating enzyme E2 (UBE2) members (such as UBE2D2, UBE2G2, UBE2J1 and UBE2E1 ), were identified as negative prognostic biomarkers of PCa, as the high expression of them correlated with poor overall survival of PCa patients. Several downregulated Golgi-ER traffic mediators (such as SEC31A, TMED2, and TMED10 ) were identified as positive prognostic biomarkers of PCa, as the high expression of them correlated with good overall survival of PCa patients. Conclusions: These genes were of great interests in prognosis of PCa, and some of them may be constructive for the augmentation of clinical trial design and treatment strategies for PCa.

  • Comparative Analysis of the Ubiquitin-Proteasome System in Homo Sapiens and Saccharomyces Cerevisiae
    Comparative Analysis of the Ubiquitin-proteasome system in Homo sapiens and Saccharomyces cerevisiae Inaugural-Dissertation zur Erlangung des Doktorgrades der Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftlichen Fakultät der Universität zu Köln vorgelegt von Hartmut Scheel aus Rheinbach Köln, 2005 Berichterstatter: Prof. Dr. R. Jürgen Dohmen Prof. Dr. Thomas Langer Dr. Kay Hofmann Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 18.07.2005 Zusammenfassung I Zusammenfassung Das Ubiquitin-Proteasom System (UPS) stellt den wichtigsten Abbauweg für intrazelluläre Proteine in eukaryotischen Zellen dar. Das abzubauende Protein wird zunächst über eine Enzym-Kaskade mit einer kovalent gebundenen Ubiquitinkette markiert. Anschließend wird das konjugierte Substrat vom Proteasom erkannt und proteolytisch gespalten. Ubiquitin besitzt eine Reihe von Homologen, die ebenfalls posttranslational an Proteine gekoppelt werden können, wie z.B. SUMO und NEDD8. Die hierbei verwendeten Aktivierungs- und Konjugations-Kaskaden sind vollständig analog zu der des Ubiquitin- Systems. Es ist charakteristisch für das UPS, daß sich die Vielzahl der daran beteiligten Proteine aus nur wenigen Proteinfamilien rekrutiert, die durch gemeinsame, funktionale Homologiedomänen gekennzeichnet sind. Einige dieser funktionalen Domänen sind auch in den Modifikations-Systemen der Ubiquitin-Homologen zu finden, jedoch verfügen diese Systeme zusätzlich über spezifische Domänentypen. Homologiedomänen lassen sich als mathematische Modelle in Form von Domänen- deskriptoren (Profile) beschreiben. Diese Deskriptoren können wiederum dazu verwendet werden, mit Hilfe geeigneter Verfahren eine gegebene Proteinsequenz auf das Vorliegen von entsprechenden Homologiedomänen zu untersuchen. Da die im UPS involvierten Homologie- domänen fast ausschließlich auf dieses System und seine Analoga beschränkt sind, können domänen-spezifische Profile zur Katalogisierung der UPS-relevanten Proteine einer Spezies verwendet werden. Auf dieser Basis können dann die entsprechenden UPS-Repertoires verschiedener Spezies miteinander verglichen werden.

Brandes1,2 Oxidized phospholipids (oxPAPC) induce endothelial dysfunction and atherosclerosis. Here we show that oxPAPC induce a gene network regulating serine-glycine metabolism with the mitochondrial methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase/cyclohydrolase (MTHFD2) as a cau- sal regulator using integrative network modeling and Bayesian network analysis in human aortic endothelial cells. The cluster is activated in human plaque material and by atherogenic lipo- proteins isolated from plasma of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the MTHFD2-controlled cluster associate with CAD. The MTHFD2-controlled cluster redirects metabolism to glycine synthesis to replenish purine nucleotides. Since endothelial cells secrete purines in response to oxPAPC, the MTHFD2- controlled response maintains endothelial ATP. Accordingly, MTHFD2-dependent glycine synthesis is a prerequisite for angiogenesis. Thus, we propose that endothelial cells undergo MTHFD2-mediated reprogramming toward serine-glycine and mitochondrial one-carbon metabolism to compensate for the loss of ATP in response to oxPAPC during atherosclerosis.
