Reidy M, Masison DC. Mutations in the Hsp90 N Domain Identify a Site that Controls Dimer Opening and Expand Human Hsp90α Function in Yeast. J Mol Biol 2020; 432:4673-4689. [PMID: 32565117 PMCID: PMC7437358 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmb.2020.06.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2020] [Revised: 05/27/2020] [Accepted: 06/13/2020] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
Hsp90 is a highly conserved molecular chaperone important for the activity of many client proteins. Hsp90 has an N-terminal ATPase domain (N), a middle domain (M) that interacts with clients and a C-terminal dimerization domain (C). "Closing" of dimers around clients is regulated by ATP binding, co-chaperones, and post-translational modifications. ATP hydrolysis coincides with release of mature client and resetting the reaction cycle. Humans have two Hsp90s: hHsp90α and hHsp90β. Although 85% identical, hHsp90β supports Hsp90 function in yeast much better than hHsp90α. Determining the basis of this difference would provide important insight into functional specificity of seemingly redundant Hsp90s, and the evolution of eukaryotic Hsp90 systems and clientele. Here, we found host co-chaperones Sba1, Cpr6 and Cpr7 inhibited hHsp90α function in yeast, and we identified mutations clustering in the N domain that considerably improved hHsp90α function in yeast. The strongest of these rescuer mutations accelerated nucleotide-dependent lid closing, N-M domain docking, and ATPase. It also disrupted binding to Sba1, which prolongs the closed state, and promoted N-M undocking and lid opening. Our data suggest the rescuer mutations improve function of hHsp90α in yeast by accelerating return to the open state. Our findings imply hHsp90α occupies the closed state too long to function effectively in yeast, and define an evolutionarily conserved region of the N domain involved in resetting the Hsp90 reaction cycle.

Solution structure of Plasmodium falciparum Hsp90 indicates a high flexible dimer. Arch Biochem Biophys 2020; 690:108468.

Abstract
Hsp90 is a ubiquitous, homodimer and modular molecular chaperone. Each Hsp90 protomer has three different domains, named the N-terminal domain (NTD), middle domain (MD) and C-terminal domain (CTD). The Hsp90 molecular cycle involves ATP binding and hydrolysis, which drive conformational changes. Hsp90 is critical for the viability of eukaryotic organisms, including the protozoan that causes the severe form of malaria, Plasmodium falciparum, the growth and differentiation of which are compromised when Hsp90 is inhibited. Here, we characterize the structure of a recombinant P. falciparum Hsp90 (PfHsp90) protein, as well as its MD (PfHsp90MD) and NTD plus MD (PfHsp90NMD) constructs. All the proteins were obtained with high purity and in the folded state. PfHsp90 and PfHsp90NMD interacted with adenosine nucleotides via the NTD, and Mg2+ was critical for strong binding. PfHsp90 behaved mostly as elongated and flexible dimers in solution, which dissociate with a sub-micromolar dissociation constant. The PfHsp90MD and PfHsp90NMD constructs behaved as globular and elongated monomers, respectively, confirming the importance of the CTD for dimerization. Small angle X-ray scattering data were obtained for all the constructs, and ab initio models were constructed, revealing PfHsp90 in an open conformation and as a greatly elongated and flexible protein.

Abstract
A delicate intracellular balance among protein synthesis, folding, and degradation is essential to maintaining protein homeostasis or proteostasis, and it is challenged by genetic and environmental factors. Molecular chaperones and the ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS) play a vital role in proteostasis for normal cellular function. As part of protein quality control, molecular chaperones recognize misfolded proteins and assist in their refolding. Proteins that are beyond repair or refolding undergo degradation, which is largely mediated by the UPS. The importance of protein quality control is becoming ever clearer, but it can also be a disease-causing mechanism. Diseases such as phenylketonuria (PKU) and hereditary tyrosinemia-I (HT1) are caused due to mutations in PAH and FAH gene, resulting in reduced protein stability, misfolding, accelerated degradation, and deficiency in functional proteins. Misfolded or partially unfolded proteins do not necessarily lose their functional activity completely. Thus, partially functional proteins can be rescued from degradation by molecular chaperones and deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs). Deubiquitination is an important mechanism of the UPS that can reverse the degradation of a substrate protein by covalently removing its attached ubiquitin molecule. In this review, we discuss the importance of molecular chaperones and DUBs in reducing the severity of PKU and HT1 by stabilizing and rescuing mutant proteins.

Abstract
HEAT SHOCK PROTEINS 90 (HSP90s) are molecular chaperones that mediate correct folding and stability of many client proteins. These chaperones act as master molecular hubs involved in multiple aspects of cellular and developmental signalling in diverse organisms. Moreover, environmental and genetic perturbations affect both HSP90s and their clients, leading to alterations of molecular networks determining respectively plant phenotypes and genotypes and contributing to a broad phenotypic plasticity. Although HSP90 interaction networks affecting the genetic basis of phenotypic variation and diversity have been thoroughly studied in animals, such studies are just starting to emerge in plants. Here, we summarize current knowledge and discuss HSP90 network functions in plant development and cellular homeostasis.

Abstract
Understanding molecular principles underlying chaperone-based modulation of kinase client activity is critically important to dissect functions and activation mechanisms of many oncogenic proteins. The recent experimental studies have suggested that phosphorylation sites in the Hsp90 and Cdc37 proteins can serve as conformational communication switches of chaperone regulation and kinase interactions. However, a mechanism of allosteric coupling between phosphorylation sites in the Hsp90 and Cdc37 during client binding is poorly understood, and the molecular signatures underpinning specific roles of phosphorylation sites in the Hsp90 regulation remain unknown. In this work, we employed a combination of evolutionary analysis, coarse-grained molecular simulations together with perturbation-based network modeling and scanning of the unbound and bound Hsp90 and Cdc37 structures to quantify allosteric effects of phosphorylation sites and identify unique signatures that are characteristic for communication switches of kinase-specific client binding. By using network-based metrics of the dynamic intercommunity bridgeness and community centrality, we characterize specific signatures of phosphorylation switches involved in allosteric regulation. Through perturbation-based analysis of the dynamic residue interaction networks, we show that mutations of kinase-specific phosphorylation switches can induce long-range effects and lead to a global rewiring of the allosteric network and signal transmission in the Hsp90-Cdc37-kinase complex. We determine a specific group of phosphorylation sites in the Hsp90 where mutations may have a strong detrimental effect on allosteric interaction network, providing insight into the mechanism of phosphorylation-induced communication switching. The results demonstrate that kinase-specific phosphorylation switches of communications in the Hsp90 may be partly predisposed for their regulatory role based on preexisting allosteric propensities.

Abstract
Stress inducible protein 1 (STI1) is a co-chaperone acting with Hsp70 and Hsp90 for the correct client proteins' folding and therefore for the maintenance of cellular homeostasis. Besides being expressed in the cytosol, STI1 can also be found both in the cell membrane and the extracellular medium playing several relevant roles in the central nervous system (CNS) and tumor microenvironment. During CNS development, in association with cellular prion protein (PrPc), STI1 regulates crucial events such as neuroprotection, neuritogenesis, astrocyte differentiation and survival. In cancer, STI1 is involved with tumor growth and invasion, is undoubtedly a pro-tumor factor, being considered as a biomarker and possibly therapeutic target for several malignancies. In this review, we discuss current knowledge and new findings on STI1 function as well as its role in tissue homeostasis, CNS and tumor progression.

Abstract
Metastatic colonization, whereby a disseminated tumor cell is able to survive and proliferate at a secondary site, involves both tumor cell-intrinsic and -extrinsic factors. To identify tumor cell-extrinsic (microenvironmental) factors that regulate the ability of metastatic tumor cells to effectively colonize a tissue, we performed a genome-wide screen utilizing the experimental metastasis assay on mutant mice. Mutant and wildtype (control) mice were tail vein-dosed with murine metastatic melanoma B16-F10 cells and 10 days later the number of pulmonary metastatic colonies were counted. Of the 1,300 genes/genetic locations (1,344 alleles) assessed in the screen 34 genes were determined to significantly regulate pulmonary metastatic colonization (15 increased and 19 decreased; P < 0.005 and genotype effect <-55 or >+55). While several of these genes have known roles in immune system regulation (Bach2, Cyba, Cybb, Cybc1, Id2, Igh-6, Irf1, Irf7, Ncf1, Ncf2, Ncf4 and Pik3cg) most are involved in a disparate range of biological processes, ranging from ubiquitination (Herc1) to diphthamide synthesis (Dph6) to Rho GTPase-activation (Arhgap30 and Fgd4), with no previous reports of a role in the regulation of metastasis. Thus, we have identified numerous novel regulators of pulmonary metastatic colonization, which may represent potential therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Protein homeostasis is a dynamic network that plays a pivotal role in systems' maintenance within a cell. This quality control system involves a number of mechanisms regarding the process of protein folding. Chaperones play a critical role in the folding, refolding, and unfolding of proteins. Aggregation of misfolded proteins is a common characteristic of neurodegenerative diseases. Chaperones act in a variety of pathways in this critical interplay between protein homeostasis network and misfolded protein's load. Moreover, ER stress-induced cell death mechanisms (such as the unfolded protein response) are activated as a response. Therefore, there is a critical balance in the accumulation of misfolded proteins and ER stress response mechanisms which can lead to cell death. Our focus is in understanding the different mechanisms that govern ER stress signaling in health and disease in order to represent the regulation of protein homeostasis and balance of protein synthesis and degradation in the ER. Our proposed model describes, using hybrid modeling, the function of chaperones' machinery for protein folding.

Abstract
Despite several advances in medicine, ischaemic heart disease remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality. The unravelling of molecular mechanisms underlying disease pathophysiology has revealed targets for pharmacological interventions. However, transfer of these pharmcological possibilities to clinical use has been disappointing. Considering the complexity of ischaemic disease at the cellular and molecular levels, an equally multifaceted treatment approach may be envisioned. The pharmacological principle of 'one target, one key' may fall short in such contexts, and optimal treatment may involve one or many agents directed against complementary targets. Here, we introduce a 'multi-target approach to cardioprotection' and propose heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) as a target of interest. We report on a member of a distinct class of HSP90 inhibitor possessing pleiotropic activity, which we found to exhibit potent infarct-sparing effects.

Abstract
Heat shock protein 90 (HSP90), a highly and unique chaperone, presents as a double-edged sword. It plays an essential role in many physiological and pathological processes, including tumor development. The current review highlights a recent understanding of the roles of HSP90 in molecular mechanisms underlying cancer survival and progression. HSP90 and its client proteins through the regulation of oncoproteins including signaling proteins, receptors, and transcriptional factors involved in tumorigenesis. It also has potential clinical application as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for assessing cancer progression. In this way, using HSP90 to develop new anticancer therapeutic agents including HSP90 inhibitors, anti-HSP90 antibody, and HSP90-based vaccines has been promising.

Abstract
Heat-shock protein (Hsp) 90 assists in the folding of diverse sets of client proteins including kinases and growth hormone receptors. Hsp70 plays a major role in many Hsp90 functions by interacting and modulating conformation of its substrates before being transferred to Hsp90s for final maturation. Each eukaryote contains multiple members of the Hsp70 family. However, the role of different Hsp70 isoforms in Hsp90 chaperoning actions remains unknown. Using v-Src as an Hsp90 substrate, we examined the role of each of the four yeast cytosolic Ssa Hsp70s in regulating Hsp90 functions. We show that the strain expressing stress-inducible Ssa3 or Ssa4, and the not constitutively expressed Ssa1 or Ssa2, as the sole Ssa Hsp70 isoform reduces v-Src-mediated growth defects. The study shows that although different Hsp70 isoforms interact similarly with Hsp90s, v-Src maturation is less efficient in strains expressing Ssa4 as the sole Hsp70. We further show that the functional distinction between Ssa2 and Ssa4 is regulated by its C-terminal domain. Further studies reveal that Ydj1, which is known to assist substrate transfer to Hsp70s, interacts relatively weakly with Ssa4 compared with Ssa2, which could be the basis for poor maturation of the Hsp90 client in cells expressing stress-inducible Ssa4 as the sole Ssa Hsp70. The study thus reveals a novel role of Ydj1 in determining the functional distinction among Hsp70 isoforms with respect to the Hsp90 chaperoning action.

Abstract
Cellular proteostasis is maintained by a system consisting of molecular chaperones, heat shock proteins (Hsps) and proteins involved with degradation. Among the proteins that play important roles in the function of this system is Hsp90, which acts as a node of this network, interacting with at least 10% of the proteome. Hsp90 is ATP-dependent, participates in critical cell events and protein maturation and interacts with large numbers of co-chaperones. The study of Hsp90 orthologs is justified by their differences in ATPase activity levels and conformational changes caused by Hsp90 interaction with nucleotides. This study reports the characterization of Hsp90 from Aedes aegypti, a vector of several diseases in many regions of the planet. Aedes aegypti Hsp90, AaHsp90, was cloned, purified and characterized for its ATPase and chaperone activities and structural conformation. These parameters indicate that it has the characteristics of eukaryotic Hsp90s and resembles orthologs from yeast rather than from human. Finally, constitutive and increased stress expression in Aedes cells was confirmed. Taken together, the results presented here help to understand the relationship between structure and function in the Hsp90 family and have strong potential to form the basis for studies on the network of chaperone and Hsps in Aedes.

Abstract
AbstractHeat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is a dimeric molecular chaperone that plays an essential role in cellular homeostasis. It functions in the context of a structurally dynamic ATP-dependent cycle to promote conformational changes in its clientele to aid stability, maturation, and activation. The client activation cycle is tightly regulated by a cohort of co-chaperone proteins that display specific binding preferences for certain conformations of Hsp90, guiding Hsp90 through its functional ATPase cycle. Aha-type co-chaperones are well-known to robustly stimulate the ATPase activity of Hsp90 but other roles in regulating the functional cycle are being revealed. In this review, we summarize the work done on the Aha-type co-chaperones since the 1990s and highlight recent discoveries with respect to the complexity of Hsp90 cycle regulation.

Abstract
Hsp90 plays an important role in health and is a therapeutic target for managing misfolding disease. Compounds that disrupt co-chaperone delivery of clients to Hsp90 target a subset of Hsp90 activities, thereby minimizing the toxicity of pan-Hsp90 inhibitors. Here, we have identified SEW04784 as a first-in-class inhibitor of the Aha1-stimulated Hsp90 ATPase activity without inhibiting basal Hsp90 ATPase. Nuclear magnetic resonance analysis reveals that SEW84 binds to the C-terminal domain of Aha1 to weaken its asymmetric binding to Hsp90. Consistent with this observation, SEW84 blocks Aha1-dependent Hsp90 chaperoning activities, including the in vitro and in vivo refolding of firefly luciferase, and the transcriptional activity of the androgen receptor in cell-based models of prostate cancer and promotes the clearance of phosphorylated tau in cellular and tissue models of neurodegenerative tauopathy. We propose that SEW84 provides a novel lead scaffold for developing therapeutic approaches to treat proteostatic disease.

A methylated lysine is a switch point for conformational communication in the chaperone Hsp90. Nat Commun 2020; 11:1219. [PMID: 32139682 PMCID: PMC7057950 DOI: 10.1038/s41467-020-15048-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/16/2018] [Accepted: 02/15/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Methylation of a conserved lysine in C-terminal domain of the molecular chaperone Hsp90 was shown previously to affect its in vivo function. However, the underlying mechanism remained elusive. Through a combined experimental and computational approach, this study shows that this site is very sensitive to sidechain modifications and crucial for Hsp90 activity in vitro and in vivo. Our results demonstrate that this particular lysine serves as a switch point for the regulation of Hsp90 functions by influencing its conformational cycle, ATPase activity, co-chaperone regulation, and client activation of yeast and human Hsp90. Incorporation of the methylated lysine via genetic code expansion specifically shows that upon modification, the conformational cycle of Hsp90 is altered. Molecular dynamics simulations including the methylated lysine suggest specific conformational changes that are propagated through Hsp90. Thus, methylation of the C-terminal lysine allows a precise allosteric tuning of Hsp90 activity via long distances. Methylation of a lysine residue in Hsp90 is a recently discovered post-translational modification but the mechanistic effects of this modification have remained unknown so far. Here the authors combine biochemical and biophysical approaches, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and functional experiments with yeast and show that this lysine is a switch point, which specifically modulates conserved Hsp90 functions including co-chaperone regulation and client activation.

Abstract
The intracellular trafficking of growth factor receptors determines the activity of their downstream signaling pathways. Here, we show that the putative HSP-90 co-chaperone CHP-1 acts as a regulator of EGFR trafficking in C. elegans. Loss of chp-1 causes the retention of the EGFR in the ER and decreases MAPK signaling. CHP-1 is specifically required for EGFR trafficking, as the localization of other transmembrane receptors is unaltered in chp-1(lf) mutants, and the inhibition of hsp-90 or other co-chaperones does not affect EGFR localization. The role of the CHP-1 homolog CHORDC1 during EGFR trafficking is conserved in human cells. Analogous to C. elegans, the response of CHORDC1-deficient A431 cells to EGF stimulation is attenuated, the EGFR accumulates in the ER and ERK2 activity decreases. Although CHP-1 has been proposed to act as a co-chaperone for HSP90, our data indicate that CHP-1 plays an HSP90-independent function in controlling EGFR trafficking through the ER.

Abstract
Background The molecular chaperone TRAP1, the mitochondrial isoform of cytosolic HSP90, remains poorly understood with respect to its pivotal role in the regulation of mitochondrial metabolism. Most studies have found it to be an inhibitor of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) and an inducer of the Warburg phenotype of cancer cells. However, others have reported the opposite, and there is no consensus on the relevant TRAP1 interactors. This calls for a more comprehensive analysis of the TRAP1 interactome and of how TRAP1 and mitochondrial metabolism mutually affect each other. Results We show that the disruption of the gene for TRAP1 in a panel of cell lines dysregulates OXPHOS by a metabolic rewiring that induces the anaplerotic utilization of glutamine metabolism to replenish TCA cycle intermediates. Restoration of wild-type levels of OXPHOS requires full-length TRAP1. Whereas the TRAP1 ATPase activity is dispensable for this function, it modulates the interactions of TRAP1 with various mitochondrial proteins. Quantitatively by far, the major interactors of TRAP1 are the mitochondrial chaperones mtHSP70 and HSP60. However, we find that the most stable stoichiometric TRAP1 complex is a TRAP1 tetramer, whose levels change in response to both a decline and an increase in OXPHOS. Conclusions Our work provides a roadmap for further investigations of how TRAP1 and its interactors such as the ATP synthase regulate cellular energy metabolism. Our results highlight that TRAP1 function in metabolism and cancer cannot be understood without a focus on TRAP1 tetramers as potentially the most relevant functional entity.

Abstract
Heat shock proteins (HSPs) greatly contribute to insect stress tolerance and enhance survival and adaptation in severe environmental conditions. To investigate the potential roles of HSPs in the spruce budworm, Choristoneura fumiferana (L.), an important native pest of forests in North America, we found eight ATP-dependent HSP transcripts (CfHSPs). Based on molecular characteristics, the identified HSP genes were classified into HSP70 and HSP90 families, and phylogenetic results showed that they had orthologues in other insects. The transcript levels of these HSPs were measured using RT-qPCR under normal and stressful conditions in the laboratory. Under normal conditions, three HSP genes were consistently expressed in all life stages, whereas expression of the other five genes was dependent on the developmental stage. In the larvae, most CfHSP transcripts displayed similar expression levels among different tissues. Under heat shock conditions, one HSP70 gene and one HSP90 gene were upregulated in all life stages. One HSP70 gene was upregulated after cold injury in the larval stage. With starvation, HSP gene expression exhibited complex expression patterns; most of them were downregulated. These results suggest that the ATP-dependent HSPs have multiple roles during normal development as well as under stressful conditions including heat, cold injury and starvation.

Abstract
Hsp90 plays a central role in cell homeostasis by assisting folding and maturation of a large variety of clients. It is a homo-dimer, which functions via hydrolysis of ATP-coupled to conformational changes. Hsp90's conformational cycle in the absence of cochaperones is currently postulated as apo-Hsp90 being an ensemble of "open"/"closed" conformations. Upon ATP binding, Hsp90 adopts an active ATP-bound closed conformation where the N-terminal domains, which comprise the ATP binding site, are in close contact. However, there is no consensus regarding the conformation of the ADP-bound Hsp90, which is considered important for client release. In this work, we tracked the conformational states of yeast Hsp90 at various stages of ATP hydrolysis in frozen solutions employing electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) techniques, particularly double electron-electron resonance (DEER) distance measurements. Using rigid Gd(III) spin labels, we found the C domains to be dimerized with same distance distribution at all hydrolysis states. Then, we substituted the ATPase Mg(II) cofactor with paramagnetic Mn(II) and followed the hydrolysis state using hyperfine spectroscopy and measured the inter-N-domain distance distributions via Mn(II)-Mn(II) DEER. The point character of the Mn(II) spin label allowed us resolve 2 different closed states: The ATP-bound (prehydrolysis) characterized by a distance distribution having a maximum of 4.3 nm, which broadened and shortened, shifting the mean to 3.8 nm at the ADP-bound state (posthydrolysis). This provides experimental evidence to a second closed conformational state of Hsp90 in solution, referred to as "compact." Finally, the so-called high-energy state, trapped by addition of vanadate, was found structurally similar to the posthydrolysis state.

Abstract
Interferon-induced protein with tetratricopeptide repeats (IFIT) genes are prominent interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs). The human IFIT gene family consists of four genes named IFIT1, IFIT2, IFIT3, and IFIT5. The expression of IFIT genes is very low in most cell types, whereas their expression is greatly enhanced by interferon treatment, viral infection, and pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs). The proteins encoded by IFIT genes have multiple tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) motifs. IFIT proteins do not have any known enzymatic roles. However, they execute a variety of cellular functions by mediating protein-protein interactions and forming multiprotein complexes with cellular and viral proteins through their multiple TPR motifs. The versatile tertiary structure of TPR motifs in IFIT proteins enables them to be involved in distinct biological functions, including host innate immunity, antiviral immune response, virus-induced translation initiation, replication, double-stranded RNA signaling, and PAMP recognition. The current understanding of the IFIT proteins and their role in cellular signaling mechanisms is limited to the antiviral immune response and innate immunity. However, recent studies on IFIT protein functions and their involvement in various molecular signaling mechanisms have implicated them in cancer progression and metastasis. In this article, we focused on critical molecular, biological and oncogenic functions of human IFIT proteins by reviewing their prognostic significance in health and cancer. Research suggests that IFIT proteins could be novel therapeutic targets for cancer therapy.

Abstract
RNA sequencing (RNAseq) can be a powerful tool in the identification of transcriptional changes after drug treatment. RNAseq was utilized to determine expression changes in Fluorescence-activated cell sorted (FACS) CD11b/c+ cells from the striatum (STR) and prefrontal cortex (PFC) of male Sprague-Dawley rats after a methamphetamine (METH) binge dosing regimen. Resident microglia and infiltrating macrophages were collected 2 h or 3 days after drug administration. Gene expression changes indicated there was an increase toward an overall pro-inflammatory state, or M1 polarization, along with what appears to be a subset of cells that differentiated toward the anti-inflammatory M2 polarization. In general, there were significantly more mRNA expression changes in the STR than the PFC and more at 2 h post-binge METH than at 3 days post-binge METH. Additionally, Ingenuity® Pathway Analysis along with details of RNA expression changes revealed cyclo-oxygenase 2 (COX2)-driven prostaglandin (PG) E2 synthesis, glutamine uptake, and the Nuclear factor erythroid2-related factor 2 (NRF2) canonical pathway in microglia were associated with the binge administration regimen of METH.

Abstract
Identification of key regulators and regulatory pathways is an important step in the discovery of genes involved in cancer. Here, we propose a method to identify key regulators in prostate cancer (PCa) from a network constructed from gene expression datasets of PCa patients. Overexpressed genes were identified using BioXpress, having a mutational status according to COSMIC, followed by the construction of PCa Interactome network using the curated genes. The topological parameters of the network exhibited power law nature indicating hierarchical scale-free properties and five levels of organization. Highest degree hubs (k ≥ 65) were selected from the PCa network, traced, and 19 of them was identified as novel key regulators, as they participated at all network levels serving as backbone. Of the 19 hubs, some have been reported in literature to be associated with PCa and other cancers. Based on participation coefficient values most of these are connector or kinless hubs suggesting significant roles in modular linkage. The observation of non-monotonicity in the rich club formation suggested the importance of intermediate hubs in network integration, and they may play crucial roles in network stabilization. The network was self-organized as evident from fractal nature in topological parameters of it and lacked a central control mechanism.

Abstract
Chaperone networks are dysregulated with aging, but whether compromised Hsp70/Hsp90 chaperone function disturbs neuronal resilience is unknown. Stress-inducible phosphoprotein 1 (STI1; STIP1; HOP) is a co-chaperone that simultaneously interacts with Hsp70 and Hsp90, but whose function in vivo remains poorly understood. We combined in-depth analysis of chaperone genes in human datasets, analysis of a neuronal cell line lacking STI1 and of a mouse line with a hypomorphic Stip1 allele to investigate the requirement for STI1 in aging. Our experiments revealed that dysfunctional STI1 activity compromised Hsp70/Hsp90 chaperone network and neuronal resilience. The levels of a set of Hsp90 co-chaperones and client proteins were selectively affected by reduced levels of STI1, suggesting that their stability depends on functional Hsp70/Hsp90 machinery. Analysis of human databases revealed a subset of co-chaperones, including STI1, whose loss of function is incompatible with life in mammals, albeit they are not essential in yeast. Importantly, mice expressing a hypomorphic STI1 allele presented spontaneous age-dependent hippocampal neurodegeneration and reduced hippocampal volume, with consequent spatial memory deficit. We suggest that impaired STI1 function compromises Hsp70/Hsp90 chaperone activity in mammals and can by itself cause age-dependent hippocampal neurodegeneration in mice.

A docking-based structural analysis of geldanamycin-derived inhibitor binding to human or Leishmania Hsp90. Sci Rep 2019; 9:14756. [PMID: 31611575 PMCID: PMC6791876 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-019-51239-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/20/2018] [Accepted: 09/13/2019] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Leishmaniasis is a neglected disease that affects millions of individuals around the world. Regardless of clinical form, treatment is based primarily on the use of pentavalent antimonials. However, such treatments are prolonged and present intense side effects, which lead to patient abandonment in many cases. The search for chemotherapeutic alternatives has become a priority. Heat Shock Protein 90 (Hsp90) inhibitors have recently come under investigation due to antiparasitic activity in Plasmodium sp., Trypanosoma sp. and Leishmania sp. Some of these inhibitors, such as geldanamycin and its analogs, 17-AAG and 17-DMAG, bind directly to Hsp90, thereby inhibiting its activity. Previous studies have demonstrated that different parasite species are more susceptible to some of these inhibitors than host cells. We hypothesized that this increased susceptibility may be due to differences in binding of Hsp90 inhibitors to Leishmania protein compared to host protein. Based on the results of the in silico approach used in the present study, we propose that geldanamycin, 17-AAG and 17-DMAG present an increased tendency to bind to the N-terminal domain of Leishmania amazonensis Hsp83 in comparison to human Hsp90. This could be partially explained by differences in intermolecular interactions between each of these inhibitors and Hsp83 or Hsp90. The present findings demonstrate potential for the use of these inhibitors in the context of anti-Leishmania therapy.

Abstract
Cholera toxin (Ctx) is an AB-type protein toxin that acts as an adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-ribosyltransferase to disrupt intracellular signalling in the target cell. It moves by vesicle carriers from the cell surface to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of an intoxicated cell. The catalytic CtxA1 subunit then dissociates from the rest of the toxin, unfolds, and activates the ER-associated degradation system for export to the cytosol. Translocation occurs through an unusual ratchet mechanism in which the cytosolic chaperone Hsp90 couples CtxA1 refolding with CtxA1 extraction from the ER. Here, we report that Hsp90 recognises two peptide sequences from CtxA1: an N-terminal RPPDEI sequence (residues 11-16) and an LDIAPA sequence in the C-terminal region (residues 153-158) of the 192 amino acid protein. Peptides containing either sequence effectively blocked Hsp90 binding to full-length CtxA1. Both sequences were necessary for the ER-to-cytosol export of CtxA1. Mutagenesis studies further demonstrated that the RPP residues in the RPPDEI motif are required for CtxA1 translocation to the cytosol. The LDIAPA sequence is unique to CtxA1, but we identified an RPPDEI-like motif at the N- or C-termini of the A chains from four other ER-translocating toxins that act as ADP-ribosyltransferases: pertussis toxin, Escherichia coli heat-labile toxin, Pseudomonas aeruginosa exotoxin A, and Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium ADP-ribosylating toxin. Hsp90 plays a functional role in the intoxication process for most, if not all, of these toxins. Our work has established a defined RPPDEI binding motif for Hsp90 that is required for the ER-to-cytosol export of CtxA1 and possibly other toxin A chains as well.

Abstract
During pregnancy and labour the myometrium undergoes structural and physiological adaptations as part of a program of development. Heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) is a master regulator of both stress and developmental processes. A noted HSF1-induced gene is the 90 kDa heat shock protein (HSP90), which acts as a chaperone and regulator of cellular processes. Immunoblot analysis demonstrated HSF1 expression levels in pregnant rat myometrium on gestational day (d) 6 were maintained at a significantly higher level compared with d12 to post-partum (PP) time points (P < 0.05), while expression on d12 was significantly higher compared to d15 and d19. The transcriptionally active form pSer230-HSF1 was detected at a significantly greater level at d6 compared with d21 and d23 time points and also at d12 compared with d21, d22 and 23 (labour). Similarly, phosphorylated (P)-HSP90AA1 protein detection was significantly greater on d6 compared to d19 to d23 time points and on d12 compared with d15 to PP time points. In contrast, P-HSP90AB1 showed significantly greater detection levels on d12 compared with d15 while levels on d22 were significantly higher compared to d15, d17 and d19. Immunofluorescence analysis demonstrated that total HSF1 and HSP90 were localized mainly in the cytoplasm of myometrial cells with some detection of HSF1 in nuclei. This work advances our scientific knowledge of the myometrium during pregnancy and the expression profiles of HSF1 and HSP90 within the proliferative phase of myometrial programming suggests a role for them in this period of hyperplasia and myometrial adaptation.

Abstract
Heat shock proteins (HSP) regulate inflammation in many physiological contexts. However, inflammation is a broad process, involving numerous cytokines produced by different molecular pathways with multiple functions. In this review, we focused on the particular role of HSP on the inflammasomes intracellular platforms activated by danger signals and that enable activation of inflammatory caspases, mainly caspase-1, leading to the production of the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-1β. Interestingly, some members of the HSP family favor inflammasomes activation whereas others inhibit it, suggesting that HSP modulators for therapeutic purposes, must be carefully chosen.

Abstract
Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is a molecular chaperone involved in the maturation of a plethora of substrates ("clients"), including protein kinases, transcription factors, and E3 ubiquitin ligases, positioning Hsp90 as a central regulator of cellular proteostasis. Hsp90 undergoes large conformational changes during its ATPase cycle. The processing of clients by cytosolic Hsp90 is assisted by a cohort of cochaperones that affect client recruitment, Hsp90 ATPase function or conformational rearrangements in Hsp90. Because of the importance of Hsp90 in regulating central cellular pathways, strategies for the pharmacological inhibition of the Hsp90 machinery in diseases such as cancer and neurodegeneration are being developed. In this review, we summarize recent structural and mechanistic progress in defining the function of organelle-specific and cytosolic Hsp90, including the impact of individual cochaperones on the maturation of specific clients and complexes with clients as well as ways of exploiting Hsp90 as a drug target.

Abstract
Disrupting the interactions between Hsp90 and Cdc37 is emerging as an alternative and specific way to regulate the Hsp90 chaperone cycle in a manner not involving adenosine triphosphatase inhibition. Here, we identified DDO-5936 as a small-molecule inhibitor of the Hsp90-Cdc37 protein-protein interaction (PPI) in colorectal cancer. DDO-5936 disrupted the Hsp90-Cdc37 PPI both in vitro and in vivo via binding to a previously unknown site on Hsp90 involving Glu47, one of the binding determinants for the Hsp90-Cdc37 PPI, leading to selective down-regulation of Hsp90 kinase clients in HCT116 cells. In addition, inhibition of Hsp90-Cdc37 complex formation by DDO-5936 resulted in a remarkable cyclin-dependent kinase 4 decrease and consequent inhibition of cell proliferation through Cdc37-dependent cell cycle arrest. Together, our results demonstrated DDO-5936 as an identified specific small-molecule inhibitor of the Hsp90-Cdc37 PPI that could be used to comprehensively investigate alternative approaches targeting Hsp90 chaperone cycles for cancer therapy.

Abstract
Cystic Fibrosis is caused by mutations in the CFTR anion channel, many of which cause its misfolding and degradation. CFTR folding depends on the Hsc70 and Hsp70 chaperones and their co-chaperone DNAJA1, but Hsc70/Hsp70 is also involved in CFTR degradation. Here, we address how these opposing functions are balanced. DNAJA2 and DNAJA1 were both important for CFTR folding, however overexpressing DNAJA2 but not DNAJA1 enhanced CFTR degradation at the endoplasmic reticulum by Hsc70/Hsp70 and the E3 ubiquitin ligase CHIP. Excess Hsp70 also promoted CFTR degradation, but this occurred through the lysosomal pathway and required CHIP but not complex formation with HOP and Hsp90. Notably, the Hsp70 inhibitor MKT077 enhanced levels of mature CFTR and the most common disease variant ΔF508-CFTR, by slowing turnover and allowing delayed maturation, respectively. MKT077 also boosted the channel activity of ΔF508-CFTR when combined with the corrector compound VX809. Thus, the Hsp70 system is the major determinant of CFTR degradation, and its modulation can partially relieve the misfolding phenotype.

Abstract
Previous studies have shown that heat shock stress may activate transposable elements (TEs) in Drosophila and other organisms. Such an effect depends on the disruption of a chaperone complex that is normally involved in biogenesis of Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs), the largest class of germline-enriched small noncoding RNAs implicated in the epigenetic silencing of TEs. However, a satisfying picture of how chaperones could be involved in repressing TEs in germ cells is still unknown. Here we show that, in Drosophila, heat shock stress increases the expression of TEs at a posttranscriptional level by affecting piRNA biogenesis through the action of the inducible chaperone Hsp70. We found that stress-induced TE activation is triggered by an interaction of Hsp70 with the Hsc70-Hsp90 complex and other factors all involved in piRNA biogenesis in both ovaries and testes. Such interaction induces a displacement of all such factors to the lysosomes, resulting in a functional collapse of piRNA biogenesis. This mechanism has clear evolutionary implications. In the presence of drastic environmental changes, Hsp70 plays a key dual role in increasing both the survival probability of individuals and the genetic variability in their germ cells. The consequent increase of genetic variation in a population potentiates evolutionary plasticity and evolvability.

Abstract
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are a subpopulation of tumor cells with unlimited self-renewal capability, multilineage differentiation potential and long-term tumor repopulation capacity. CSCs reside in anatomically distinct regions within the tumor microenvironment, called niches, and this favors the maintenance of CSC properties and preserves their phenotypic plasticity. Indeed, CSCs are characterized by a flexible state based on their capacity to interconvert between a differentiated and a stem-like phenotype, and this depends on the activation of adaptive mechanisms in response to different environmental conditions. Heat Shock Proteins (HSPs) are molecular chaperones, upregulated upon cell exposure to several stress conditions and are responsible for normal maturation, localization and activity of intra and extracellular proteins. Noteworthy, HSPs play a central role in several cellular processes involved in tumor initiation and progression (i.e. cell viability, resistance to apoptosis, stress conditions and drug therapy, EMT, bioenergetics, invasiveness, metastasis formation) and, thus, are widely considered potential molecular targets. Furthermore, much evidence suggests a key regulatory function for HSPs in CSC maintenance and their upregulation has been proposed as a mechanism used by CSCs to adapt to unfavorable environmental conditions, such as nutrient deprivation, hypoxia, inflammation. This review discusses the relevance of HSPs in CSC biology, highlighting their role as novel potential molecular targets to develop anticancer strategies aimed at CSC targeting.

Abstract
Plasma membrane transporter SLC6A14 transports all neutral and basic amino acids in a Na/Cl - dependent way and it is up-regulated in many types of cancer. Mass spectrometry analysis of overexpressed SLC6A14-associated proteins identified, among others, the presence of cytosolic heat shock proteins (HSPs) and co-chaperones. We detected co-localization of overexpressed and native SLC6A14 with HSP90-beta and HSP70 (HSPA14). Proximity ligation assay confirmed a direct interaction of overexpressed SLC6A14 with both HSPs. Treatment with radicicol and VER155008, specific inhibitors of HSP90 and HSP70, respectively, attenuated these interactions and strongly reduced transporter presence at the cell surface, what resulted from the diminished level of the total transporter protein. Distortion of SLC6A14 proper folding by both HSPs inhibitors directed the transporter towards endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation pathway, a process reversed by the proteasome inhibitor - bortezomib. As demonstrated in an in vitro ATPase assay of recombinant purified HSP90-beta, the peptides corresponding to C-terminal amino acid sequence following the last transmembrane domain of SLC6A14 affected the HSP90-beta activity. These results indicate that a plasma membrane protein folding can be controlled not only by chaperones in the endoplasmic reticulum, but also those localized in the cytosol.

Phosphorylation of p23-1 cochaperone by protein kinase CK2 affects root development in Arabidopsis. Sci Rep 2019; 9:9846.

Abstract
Root growth is a fundamental process in plants and assures nutrient and water uptake required for efficient photosynthesis and metabolism. Postembryonic development of roots is controlled by the functionality of the meristem. Several hormones and signaling molecules regulate the size of the meristem, and among them, auxins play a major role. Protein kinase CK2, along with the chaperone protein HSP90, has been found to be involved in the regulation of auxin transport. Here, we show that p23-1, a cochaperone of HSP90, is phosphorylated by CK2 in Arabidopsis. We identified Ser201 as the major CK2 target site in p23-1 and demonstrated that phosphorylation of this site is necessary for normal root development. Moreover, we shed light on the nature of CK2 in Arabidopsis, showing that the three catalytic isoforms, CK2 αA, αB and αC, are proteins of approximately 40 kDa. Our results increase knowledge of the connection among HSP90, p23-1 and CK2 in Arabidopsis, suggesting the existence of a possible common root development mechanism controlled by these signaling molecules.

Abstract
Aberrant protein aggregation is a defining feature of most neurodegenerative diseases. During pathological aggregation, key proteins transition from their native state to alternative conformations, which are prone to oligomerize into highly ordered fibrillar states. As part of the cellular quality control machinery, molecular chaperones can intervene at many stages of the aggregation process to inhibit or reverse aberrant protein aggregation or counteract the toxicity associated with amyloid species. Although the action of chaperones is considered cytoprotective, essential housekeeping functions can be hijacked for the propagation and spreading of protein aggregates, suggesting the cellular protein quality control system constitutes a double-edged sword in neurodegeneration. Here, we discuss the various mechanisms used by chaperones to influence protein aggregation into amyloid fibrils to understand how the interplay of these activities produces specific cellular outcomes and to define mechanisms that may be targeted by pharmacological agents for the treatment of neurodegenerative conditions.

Involvement of Hsp90 and cyclophilins in intoxication by AIP56, a metalloprotease toxin from Photobacterium damselae subsp. piscicida. Sci Rep 2019; 9:9019.

Abstract
AIP56 (apoptosis inducing protein of 56 kDa) is a key virulence factor secreted by virulent strains of Photobacterium damselae subsp. piscicida (Phdp), a Gram-negative bacterium that causes septicemic infections in several warm water marine fish species. AIP56 is systemically disseminated during infection and induces massive apoptosis of host macrophages and neutrophils, playing a decisive role in the disease outcome. AIP56 is a single-chain AB-type toxin, being composed by a metalloprotease A domain located at the N-terminal region connected to a C-terminal B domain, required for internalization of the toxin into susceptible cells. After binding to a still unidentified surface receptor, AIP56 is internalised through clathrin-mediated endocytosis, reaches early endosomes and translocates into the cytosol through a mechanism requiring endosomal acidification and involving low pH-induced unfolding of the toxin. At the cytosol, the catalytic domain of AIP56 cleaves NF-κB p65, leading to the apoptotic death of the intoxicated cells. It has been reported that host cytosolic factors, including host cell chaperones such as heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) and peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerases (PPIases), namely cyclophilin A/D (Cyp) and FK506-binding proteins (FKBP) are involved in the uptake of several bacterial AB toxins with ADP-ribosylating activity, but are dispensable for the uptake of other AB toxins with different enzymatic activities, such as Bacillus anthracis lethal toxin (a metalloprotease) or the large glycosylating toxins A and B of Clostridium difficile. Based on these findings, it has been proposed that the requirement for Hsp90/PPIases is a common and specific characteristic of ADP-ribosylating toxins. In the present work, we demonstrate that Hsp90 and the PPIases cyclophilin A/D are required for efficient intoxication by the metalloprotease toxin AIP56. We further show that those host cell factors interact with AIP56 in vitro and that the interactions increase when AIP56 is unfolded. The interaction with Hsp90 was also demonstrated in intact cells, at 30 min post-treatment with AIP56, suggesting that it occurs during or shortly after translocation of the toxin from endosomes into the cytosol. Based on these findings, we propose that the participation of Hsp90 and Cyp in bacterial toxin entry may be more disseminated than initially expected, and may include toxins with different catalytic activities.

Abstract
Myoglobin (Mb) maturation involves heme incorporation as a final step. We investigated a role for heat shock protein (hsp) 90 in Mb maturation in C2C12 skeletal muscle myoblasts and cell lines. We found the following: 1) Hsp90 directly interacts preferentially with heme-free Mb both in purified form and in cells. 2) Hsp90 drives heme insertion into apoprotein-Mb in an ATP-dependent process. 3) During differentiation of C2C12 myoblasts into myotubes, the apo-Mb-hsp90 complex associates with 5 cell cochaperons, Hsp70, activator of hsp90 ATPase protein 1 (Aha1), alanyl-tRNA synthetase domain containing 1 (Aarsd1), cell division cycle 37 (Cdc37), and stress induced phosphoprotein 1 (STIP1) in a pattern that is consistent with their enabling Mb maturation. 4) Mb heme insertion was significantly increased in cells that had a functional soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC)-cGMP signaling pathway and was diminished upon small interfering RNA knockdown of sGCβ1 or upon overexpression of a phosphodiesterase to prevent cGMP buildup. Together, our findings suggest that hsp90 works in concert with cochaperons (Hsp70, Aha1, Aarsd1, STIP1, and Cdc37) and an active sGC-cGMP signaling pathway to promote heme insertion into immature apo-Mb, and thus generate functional Mb during muscle myotube formation. This fills gaps in our understanding and suggests new ways to potentially control these processes.-Ghosh, A., Dai, Y., Biswas, P., Stuehr, D. J. Myoglobin maturation is driven by the hsp90 chaperone machinery and by soluble guanylyl cyclase.

Abstract
The koji mold Aspergillus oryzae has been used in traditional Japanese food and beverage fermentation for over a thousand years. Amylolytic enzymes are important in sake fermentation, wherein production is induced by starch or malto-oligosaccharides. This inducible production requires at least two transcription activators, AmyR and MalR. Among amylolytic enzymes, glucoamylase GlaB is produced exclusively in solid-state culture and plays a critical role in sake fermentation owing to its contribution to glucose generation from starch. A recent study demonstrated that glaB gene expression is regulated by a novel transcription factor, FlbC, in addition to AmyR in solid-state culture. Amylolytic enzyme production is generally repressed by glucose due to carbon catabolite repression (CCR), which is mediated by the transcription factor CreA. Modifying CCR machinery, including CreA, can improve amylolytic enzyme production. This review focuses on the role of transcription factors in regulating A. oryzae amylolytic gene expression.

Abstract
Heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) molecular chaperones are a family of ubiquitous proteins participating in several cellular functions through the regulation of folding and/or assembly of large multiprotein complexes and client proteins. Thus, HSP90s chaperones are, directly or indirectly, master regulators of a variety of cellular processes, such as adaptation to stress, cell proliferation, motility, angiogenesis, and signal transduction. In recent years, it has been proposed that HSP90s play a crucial role in carcinogenesis as regulators of genotype-to-phenotype interplay. Indeed, HSP90 chaperones control metabolic rewiring, a hallmark of cancer cells, and influence the transcription of several of the key-genes responsible for tumorigenesis and cancer progression, through either direct binding to chromatin or through the quality control of transcription factors and epigenetic effectors. In this review, we will revise evidence suggesting how this interplay between epigenetics and metabolism may affect oncogenesis. We will examine the effect of metabolic rewiring on the accumulation of specific metabolites, and the changes in the availability of epigenetic co-factors and how this process can be controlled by HSP90 molecular chaperones. Understanding deeply the relationship between epigenetic and metabolism could disclose novel therapeutic scenarios that may lead to improvements in cancer treatment.

Abstract
The ninety kilo Dalton molecular weight heat shock protein (Hsp90) is an attractive target for the discovery of novel anticancer agents. Several strategies have been employed for the development of inhibitors against this polypeptide. The most successful strategy is targeting the N-terminal ATP binding region of the chaperone. However, till date not a single molecule reached Phase-IV of clinical trials from this class of Hsp90 inhibitors. The other approach is to target the Cterminal region of the protein. The success with this approach has been limited due to lack of well-defined ligand binding pocket in this terminal. The other promising strategy is to prevent the interaction of client proteins/co-chaperones with Hsp90 protein, i.e., protein-protein interaction inhibitors of Hsp90. The review focuses on advantage of this approach along with the recent advances in the discovery of inhibitors by following this strategy. Additionally, the biology of the client protein/co-chaperone binding site of Hsp90 is also discussed.

Abstract
Whereas a healthy endothelium maintains physiological vascular functions, endothelial damage contributes to the development of cardiovascular diseases. Endothelial senescence is the main determinant of endothelial dysfunction and thus of age-related cardiovascular disease. The objective of this study is to test the involvement of microRNA-126 and HIF-1α in a model of replicative endothelial senescence and the interrelationship between both molecules in this in vitro model. We demonstrated that senescent endothelial cells experience impaired tube formation and delayed wound healing. Senescent endothelial cells failed to express HIF-1α, and the microvesicles released by these cells failed to carry HIF-1α. Of note, HIF-1α protein levels were restored in HIF-1α stabilizer-treated senescent endothelial cells. Finally, we show that microRNA-126 was downregulated in senescent endothelial cells and microvesicles. With regard to the interplay between microRNA-126 and HIF-1α, transfection with a microRNA-126 inhibitor downregulated HIF-1α expression in early passage endothelial cells. Moreover, while HIF-1α inhibition reduced tube formation and wound healing closure, microRNA-126 levels remained unchanged. These data indicate that HIF-1α is a target of miRNA-126 in protective and reparative functions, and suggest that their therapeutic modulation could benefit age-related vascular disease.

Abstract
Human noroviruses inflict a significant health burden on society and are responsible for approximately 699 million infections and over 200 000 estimated deaths worldwide each year. Yet despite significant research efforts, approved vaccines or antivirals to combat this pathogen are still lacking. Safe and effective antivirals are not available, particularly for chronically infected immunocompromised individuals, and for prophylactic applications to protect high-risk and vulnerable populations in outbreak settings. Since the discovery of human norovirus in 1972, the lack of a cell culture system has hindered biological research and antiviral studies for many years. Recent breakthroughs in culturing human norovirus have been encouraging, however, further development and optimization of these novel methodologies are required to facilitate more robust replication levels, that will enable reliable serological and replication studies, as well as advances in antiviral development. In the last few years, considerable progress has been made toward the development of norovirus antivirals, inviting an updated review. This review focuses on potential therapeutics that have been reported since 2010, which were examined across at least two model systems used for studying human norovirus or its enzymes. In addition, we have placed emphasis on antiviral compounds with a defined chemical structure. We include a comprehensive outline of direct-acting antivirals and offer a discussion of host-modulating compounds, a rapidly expanding and promising area of antiviral research.

Abstract
p53, the guardian of the genome, requires chaperoning by Hsp70 and Hsp90. However, how the two chaperone machineries affect p53 conformation and regulate its function remains elusive. We found that Hsp70, together with Hsp40, unfolds p53 in an ATP-dependent reaction. This unfolded state of p53 is susceptible to aggregation after release induced by the nucleotide exchange factor Bag-1. However, when Hsp90 and the adaptor protein Hop are present, p53 is transferred from Hsp70 to Hsp90, allowing restoration of the native state upon ATP hydrolysis. Our results suggest that the p53 conformation is constantly remodeled by the two major chaperone machineries. This connects p53 activity to stress, and the levels of free molecular chaperones are important factors regulating p53 activity. Together, our findings reveal an intricate interplay and cooperation of Hsp70 and Hsp90 in regulating the conformation of a client.

Abstract
HSP90 inhibitors have the potential to treat many types of cancer due to the dependence of tumor cells on HSP90 for cell growth and proliferation. The Cullin-5 (Cul5) E3 ubiquitin ligase is required for HSP90 inhibitors to induce client protein degradation and subsequent cell death. Cul5 is expressed at low levels in breast cancer cells compared to patient matched controls. This observed low Cul5 expression may play a role in the reported decreased efficacy of 17-AAG and related HSP90 inhibitors as a monotherapy. We have developed a method for delivery of 17-AAG plus Cul5 DNA to cells via gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). Delivery of AuNPs containing Cul5 DNA increases the sensitivity of Cul5 deficient AU565 cells to 17-AAG. Characterization of AuNPs by UV-vis spectrum, TEM, gel electrophoresis assay and 1H NMR indicate attachment of both 17-AAG and DNA payload as well as AuNP stability. Studies in Cul5 deficient AU565 cells reveal that delivery of Cul5 and 17-AAG together increase cytotoxicity. Our results provide evidence that delivery of DNA with drug may serve as a method to sensitize drug resistant tumor cells.

Abstract
![]()
A new
tetrahydroindazolylbenzamide derivative has been synthesized, characterized,
and evaluated as HIV-inhibitor. The biological data revealed the ability
to inhibit HIV proliferation with low cytotoxicity allowing for significant
selectivity (EC50 2.77 μM; CC50 118.7
μM; SI = 68). The compound did not inhibit the viral integrase
as demonstrated by in vitro studies. QPCR experiments
showed that the block of viral replication occurred at early replication
steps, prior to integration, profiling it as a late reverse transcription
inhibitor. An efficient multistep strategy was adopted for the synthesis
of the scaffold, consisting of a sequential ring-opening reaction
of oxazol-5-(4H)-one with 1,3-diketone, followed
by cyclocondensation with hydrazine and hydrolysis of the nitrile
to the desired carboxamide.

Abstract
Proteostasis is a cellular housekeeping process that refers to the healthy maintenance of the cellular proteome that governs the fate of proteins from synthesis to degradation. Perturbations of proteostasis might result in protein dysfunction with consequent deleterious effects that can culminate in cell death. To deal with the loss of proteostasis, cells are supplied with a highly sophisticated and interconnected network that integrates as major players the molecular chaperones and the protein degradation pathways. It is well recognized that the ability of cells to maintain proteostasis declines during ageing, although the precise mechanisms are still elusive. Indeed, genetic or pharmacological enhancement of the proteostasis network has been shown to extend lifespan in a variety of ageing models. Therefore, an improved understanding of the interventions/mechanisms that contribute to cellular protein quality control will have a huge impact on the ageing field. This mini-review centers on the current knowledge about the major pathways that contribute for the maintenance of Saccharomyces cerevisiae proteostasis, with particular emphasis on the developments that highlight the multidimensional nature of the proteostasis network in the maintenance of proteostasis, as well as the age-dependent changes on this network.

Coban N, Varol N. The effect of heat shock protein 90 inhibitors on histone 4 lysine 20 methylation in bladder cancer. EXCLI JOURNAL 2019; 18:195-203. [PMID: 31217782 PMCID: PMC6558511 DOI: 10.17179/excli2018-1807] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2018] [Accepted: 03/18/2019] [Indexed: 11/10/2022]
Abstract
Heat shock protein 90 (HSP90), an ATP-dependent molecular chaperone required for the stability and function of numerous oncogenic signaling, is one of the hallmarks of cancer. Recent years, the studies showed that HSP90 plays a pivotal role in epigenetic pathways. Epigenetic regulation plays an important role in the etiology of bladder cancer. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of HSP90 proteins on DNA methylation and the levels of inactivated histone methylation markers in bladder cancers. The cytotoxic effect of geldanamycin (GA), a HSP90-specific inhibitor, in human bladder cancer cell line, T24, was studied by using WST1 (both time and dose-dependent), qPCR for the expression aberration of target genes DNMT1 and WIF-1 and western blot for the protein levels of DNMT1, Histone H4, Histone 4 lysine monomethylation (H4K20me1), Histone 4 lysine trimethylation (H4K20me3), Akt1, pAkt1 (S473) and Lysine methyltransferase 5C (KMT5C). High-dose GA treatment decreased cell proliferation. After the GA treatment, DNMT1 decreased at both transcriptional and translational levels due to Akt1 and pAkt1 (S473) inhibition. Following the GA-induced decrease in DNMT1, re-expression of WIF-1 gene was found at mRNA. In addition, the GA treatment resulted in dose- and time-dependent upregulation/downregulation of histone post-translational modifications (H4K20me1 and H4K20me3) and the KMT5C enzyme responsible for these modifications. There was no significant change in the H4 protein level. These findings may offer a new approach for the determination of the molecular effect of HSP90 on epigenetic regulation and the identification of new molecular targets (HSP90 client proteins) for bladder cancer treatment.
