It has been demonstrated that IFNγ stimulation induces the expression of IFN-regulatory factor 1 (IRF1) gene whose promoter contains two conserved STAT1-binding sites (25). To identify additional molecules involved in IFNγ-triggered signaling, we screened ∼10,000 individual human cDNA clones for their ability to ac- tivate the IRF1 promoter by reporter assays in 293 cells. These efforts led to the identification of SNX8, which activated the IRF1 promoter and dramatically potentiated IFNγ-triggered activation of the IRF1 promoter (Fig. 1A). Further experiments indicated that SNX8 potentiated IFNγ-triggered activation of the IRF1 promoter in a dose-dependent manner (Fig. 1A). We next examined the role of endogenous SNX8 in regulation of IFNγ-triggered signaling. We made two SNX8 RNAi con- structs that could markedly inhibit the expression of endogenous SNX8 (Fig. 1B). Knockdown of SNX8 inhibited IFNγ-triggered activation of the IRF1 promoter (Fig. 1B). In addition, knock- down of SNX8 inhibited transcription of a subset of IFNγ- induced downstream genes in THP1 cells, such as GBP1, CXCL9, and CXCL10 (Fig. 1C). In these experiments, knockdown of SNX8 moderately inhibited transcription of IRF1 at an early time point (1 h) but not later time points after IFNγ stimulation, whereas knockdownofSNX8hadnomarkedeffectsontranscriptionof other examined IFNγ-inducible genes, including SOCS1 and STAT1 (Fig. 1C). We then confirmed these observations using SNX8- knockout HeLa. Consistently, SNX8 deficiency inhibited IFNγ- induced transcription of GPB1, CXCL9, CXCL10,andIRF1 but not SOCS1 or STAT1 genes (Fig. 1D). Moreover, SNX8 deficiency reduced IFNγ-triggered phosphorylation of STAT1 at Tyr701 but not Ser727 (Fig. 1E).

  • Hedgehog Signaling Modulates Cholesterol Homeostasis in Chondrocytes and in Osteoarthritis
    HEDGEHOG SIGNALING MODULATES CHOLESTEROL HOMEOSTASIS IN CHONDROCYTES AND IN OSTEOARTHRITIS by Shabana Amanda Ali A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Institute of Medical Science University of Toronto © Copyright by Shabana Amanda Ali 2014 HEDGEHOG SIGNALING MODULATES CHOLESTEROL HOMEOSTASIS IN CHONDROCYTES AND IN OSTEOARTHRITIS Shabana Amanda Ali Doctor of Philosophy Institute of Medical Science University of Toronto 2014 Abstract Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common degenerative disease of the joint that is characterized by degradation and calcification of articular cartilage, and subchondral bone changes. Hedgehog (Hh) signaling is known to be activated in human and murine OA. Since Hh signaling regulates Gli‐mediated gene expression, we identified Hh target genes that are expressed in chondrocytes. Microarray analyses were performed to detect changes in gene expression when the Hh pathway was modulated in human OA cartilage samples. Results from the Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST microarray were analyzed for differentially expressed genes from three patient samples. Using Ingenuity® Pathway analysis, several genes known to be involved in sterol homeostasis were found to be modulated with Hh inhibition. We hypothesized that Hh signaling regulates cholesterol biosynthesis in chondrocytes, and that modulating cholesterol homeostasis impacts the severity of OA. To investigate the function of cholesterol in the cartilage, mice with chondrocyte‐specific cholesterol accumulation were generated. This was achieved by excising Insig1 and Insig2, major negative regulators of cholesterol homeostasis. Over time, mice with chondrocyte‐specific cholesterol accumulation exhibited impaired growth of the long bones. With aging or surgically induced joint instability, these mice ii developed more severe OA than control littermates.

Wall et al. 2 Summary We consider the design of a type of repressible gene circuit that is common in bacteria. In this type of circuit, a regulator protein acts to coordinately repress the expression of effector genes when a signal molecule with which it interacts is present. The regulator protein can also independently influence the expression of its own gene, such that regulator gene expression is repressible (like effector genes), constitutive, or inducible. Thus, a signal-directed change in the activity of the regulator protein can result in one of three patterns of coupled regulator and effector gene expression: direct coupling, in which regulator and effector gene expression change in the same direction; uncoupling, in which regulator gene expression remains constant while effector gene expression changes; or inverse coupling, in which regulator and effector gene expression change in opposite directions.

Upon recognition of cytoplasmic viral or bacterial DNAs and abnormal endogenous DNAs, the DNA sensor cGAS synthesizes 2’,3’-cGAMP that induces STING (stimulator of interferon genes) undergoing conformational changes, cellular trafficking, and the activation of downstream factors. Therefore, STING plays a pivotal role in preventing microbial pathogen infection by sensing DNAs during pathogen invasion.

This family of proteins is unified by their characteristic phox (PX) phosphoinositides binding domain. Along with binding to membranes, this family of SNXs also comprises a diverse array of protein-protein interaction motifs that are required for cellular sorting and protein trafficking. SNXs play a role in maintaining the integrity of the proteome which is essential for regulating multiple fundamental processes such as cell cycle progression, transcription, metabolism, and stress response. To tightly regulate these processes proteins must be expressed and degraded in the correct location and at the correct time. The cell employs several proteolysis mechanisms to ensure that proteins are selectively degraded at the appropriate spatiotemporal conditions. SNXs play a role in ubiquitin-mediated protein homeostasis at multiple levels including cargo localization, recycling, degradation, and function. In this review, we will discuss the role of SNXs in three different protein homeostasis systems: endocytosis lysosomal, the ubiquitin-proteasomal, and the autophagy-lysosomal system. The highly conserved nature of this protein family by beginning with the early research on SNXs and protein trafficking in yeast and lead into their important roles in mammalian systems.

  • Spatiotemporal Profiling of Cytosolic Signaling Complexes in Living Cells by Selective Proximity Proteomics
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-020-20367-x OPEN Spatiotemporal profiling of cytosolic signaling complexes in living cells by selective proximity proteomics Mi Ke1,6, Xiao Yuan1,6,AnHe1, Peiyuan Yu 1, Wendong Chen1, Yu Shi2, Tony Hunter 2, Peng Zou 3 & ✉ Ruijun Tian 1,4,5 1234567890():,; Signaling complexes are often organized in a spatiotemporal manner and on a minute timescale. Proximity labeling based on engineered ascorbate peroxidase APEX2 pioneered in situ capture of spatiotemporal membrane protein complexes in living cells, but its appli- cation to cytosolic proteins remains limited due to the high labeling background. Here, we develop proximity labeling probes with increased labeling selectivity. These probes, in combination with label-free quantitative proteomics, allow exploring cytosolic protein assemblies such as phosphotyrosine-mediated protein complexes formed in response to minute-scale EGF stimulation. As proof-of-concept, we systematically profile the spatio- temporal interactome of the EGFR signaling component STS1. For STS1 core complexes, our proximity proteomics approach shows comparable performance to affinity purification-mass spectrometry-based temporal interactome profiling, while also capturing additional— especially endosomally-located—protein complexes. In summary, we provide a generic approach for exploring the interactome of mobile cytosolic proteins in living cells at a tem- poral resolution of minutes. 1 Department of Chemistry, School of Science, Southern University of Science and Technology, Shenzhen, China. 2 Molecular and Cell Biology Laboratory, Salk Institute for Biological Studies, La Jolla, CA, USA. 3 College of Chemistry and Molecular Engineering, Peking University, Beijing, China. 4 Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Cell Microenvironment and Disease Research, Southern University of Science and Technology, Shenzhen, China.

  • Sorting Nexin-4 Regulates Β-Amyloid Production by Modulating Β-Site
    Kim et al. Alzheimer's Research & Therapy (2017) 9:4 DOI 10.1186/s13195-016-0232-8 RESEARCH Open Access Sorting nexin-4 regulates β-amyloid production by modulating β-site-activating cleavage enzyme-1 Na-Young Kim1,2,3,4†, Mi-Hyang Cho1,2,3,4†, Se-Hoon Won1,2,3,4, Hoe-Jin Kang1,2,3,4, Seung-Yong Yoon1,2,3,4* and Dong-Hou Kim1,2,3,4* Abstract Background: Amyloid precursor protein (APP) is cleaved by β-site amyloid precursor protein-cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1) to produce β-amyloid (Aβ), a critical pathogenic peptide in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Aβ generation can be affected by the intracellular trafficking of APP or its related secretases, which is thus important to understanding its pathological alterations. Although sorting nexin (SNX) family proteins regulate this trafficking, the relevance and role of sorting nexin-4 (SNX4) regarding AD has not been studied yet. Methods: In this study, human brain tissue and APP/PS1 mouse brain tissue were used to check the disease relevance of SNX4. To investigate the role of SNX4 in AD pathogenesis, several experiments were done, such as coimmunoprecipitation, Western blotting, immunohistochemistry, and gradient fractionation. Results: We found that SNX4 protein levels changed in the brains of patients with AD and of AD model mice. Overexpression of SNX4 significantly increased the levels of BACE1 and Aβ. Downregulation of SNX4 had the opposite effect. SNX4 interacts with BACE1 and prevents BACE1 trafficking to the lysosomal degradation system, resulting in an increased half-life of BACE1 and increased production of Aβ.

Mancuso1,w, David A. Cairns1,w, Giulio Pavesi3, Stefano Casola2 & Tiziana Bonaldi1 The synergism between c-MYC and miR-17-19b, a truncated version of the miR-17-92 cluster, is well-documented during tumor initiation. However, little is known about miR-17-19b function in established cancers. Here we investigate the role of miR-17-19b in c-MYC-driven lymphomas by integrating SILAC-based quantitative proteomics, transcriptomics and 30 untranslated region (UTR) analysis upon miR-17-19b overexpression. We identify over one hundred miR-17-19b targets, of which 40% are co-regulated by c-MYC. Downregulation of a new miR-17/20 target, checkpoint kinase 2 (Chek2), increases the recruitment of HuR to c- MYC transcripts, resulting in the inhibition of c-MYC translation and thus interfering with in vivo tumor growth. Hence, in established lymphomas, miR-17-19b fine-tunes c-MYC activity through a tight control of its function and expression, ultimately ensuring cancer cell homeostasis. Our data highlight the plasticity of miRNA function, reflecting changes in the mRNA landscape and 30 UTR shortening at different stages of tumorigenesis. 1 Department of Experimental Oncology, European Institute of Oncology, Via Adamello 16, Milan 20139, Italy. 2 Units of Genetics of B cells and lymphomas, IFOM, FIRC Institute of Molecular Oncology Foundation, Milan 20139, Italy.

Cellular trafficking of MITA from the ER to perinuclear microsomes after DNA OPEN ACCESS virus infection is critical for MITA activation and onset of innate antiviral response. Here we Citation: Wei J, Lian H, Guo W, Chen Y-D, Zhang found that SNX8 is a component of DNA-triggered induction of downstream effector genes X-N, Zang R, et al. (2018) SNX8 modulates innate and innate immune response. Snx8-/- mice infected with the DNA virus HSV-1 exhibited immune response to DNA virus by mediating trafficking and activation of MITA. PLoS Pathog 14 lower serum cytokine levels and higher viral titers in the brains, resulting in higher lethality. (10): e1007336. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal. Mechanistically, SNX8 recruited the class III phosphatylinositol 3-kinase VPS34 to MITA, ppat.1007336 which is required for trafficking of MITA from the ER to perinuclear microsomes.
