Abstract
Background Early diagnosis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is critical for effective treatment and optimal prognosis; however, less study on serum biomarkers for the early ESCC detection has been reported. The aim of this study was to identify and evaluate several serum autoantibody biomarkers in early ESCC. Methods We initially screened candidate tumor-associated autoantibodies (TAAbs) associated with ESCC by serological proteome analysis (SERPA) combined with nanoliter-liquid chromatography combined with quadrupole time of flight tandem mass spectrometry (nano-LC-Q-TOF-MS/MS), and the TAAbs were further subjected to analysis by Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in a clinical cohort (386 participants, including 161 patients with ESCC, 49 patients with high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia [HGIN] and 176 healthy controls [HC]). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted to evaluate the diagnostic performance. Results The serum levels of CETN2 and POFUT1 autoantibodies which were identified by SERPA were statistically different between ESCC or HGIN patients and HC in ELISA analysis with the area under the curve (AUC) values of 0.709 (95%CI: 0.654-0.764) and 0.741 (95%CI: 0.689-0.793), 0.717 (95%CI: 0.634-0.800) and 0.703 (95%CI: 0.627-0.779) for detection of ESCC and HGIN, respectively. Combining these two markers, the AUCs were 0.781 (95%CI: 0.733-0.829), 0.754 (95%CI: 0.694-0.814) and 0.756 (95%CI: 0.686-0.827) when distinguishing ESCC, early ESCC and HGIN from HC, respectively. Meanwhile, the expression of CETN2 and POFUT1 was found to be correlated with ESCC progression. Conclusions Our data suggest that CETN2 and POFUT1 autoantibodies have potential diagnostic value for ESCC and HGIN, which may provide novel insights for early ESCC and precancerous lesions detection.

Abstract
Centrin is a member of the EF-hand superfamily of calcium-binding proteins, which is involved in the nucleotide excision repair (NER). Reversible phosphorylation of centrin is an important regulatory mechanism in vivo and is closely related to many physiological processes. To explore the possible role of centrin in NER, the endonuclease-like activity of human centrin 2 (HsCen2) regulated by phosphorylation in the absence or presence of Tb3+ was investigated by spectroscopy techniques, gel electrophoresis, and molecular docking simulation in 10 mM Hepes, pH 7.4. The results showed that phosphorylation weakened the binding of Tb3+ to HsCen2 and enhanced the binding of DNA to HsCen2. Phosphorylation improves the endonuclease-like activity of HsCen2. In addition, Tb3+ is favorable for DNA binding and endonuclease-like activity of HsCen2 before and after phosphorylation. These results provide clear insights into the effects of phosphorylation on the properties of HsCen2 and offer important clues for further exploration of how phosphorylation affects protein-driven functions. Phosphorylation weakened the binding of Tb3+ to HsCen2, enhanced the binding of DNA to HsCen2; and improves the endonuclease-like activity of HsCen2; Additionally, the endonuclease-like activity of HsCen2 or HsCen2p is regulated up by Tb3+-binding.![]()
