Cancer Gene Ther 2024; 31:984-994. [PMID: 38493226 PMCID: PMC11257950 DOI: 10.1038/s41417-024-00763-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2024] [Revised: 03/05/2024] [Accepted: 03/07/2024] [Indexed: 03/18/2024]
Abstract
NONO is a member of the Drosophila behavior/human splicing (DBHS) family of proteins. NONO is a multifunctional protein that acts as a "molecular scaffold" to carry out versatile biological activities in many aspects of gene regulation, cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration, DNA damage repair, and maintaining cellular circadian rhythm coupled to the cell cycle. Besides these physiological activities, emerging evidence strongly indicates that NONO-altered expression levels promote tumorigenesis. In addition, NONO can undergo various post-transcriptional or post-translational modifications, including alternative splicing, phosphorylation, methylation, and acetylation, whose impact on cancer remains largely to be elucidated. Overall, altered NONO expression and/or activities are a common feature in cancer. This review provides an integrated scenario of the current understanding of the molecular mechanisms and the biological processes affected by NONO in different tumor contexts, suggesting that a better elucidation of the pleiotropic functions of NONO in physiology and tumorigenesis will make it a potential therapeutic target in cancer. In this respect, due to the complex landscape of NONO activities and interactions, we highlight caveats that must be considered during experimental planning and data interpretation of NONO studies.

Abstract
Protein phosphorylation is one of the most common mechanisms regulating cellular signaling pathways, and many kinases and phosphatases are proven drug targets. Upon phosphorylation, protein functions can be further regulated by the distinct isomerase Pin1 through cis-trans isomerization. Numerous protein targets and many important roles have now been elucidated for Pin1. However, no tools are available to detect or target cis and trans conformation events in cells. The development of Pin1 inhibitors and stereo- and phospho-specific antibodies has revealed that cis and trans conformations have distinct and often opposing cellular functions. Aberrant conformational changes due to the dysregulation of Pin1 can drive pathogenesis but can be effectively targeted in age-related diseases, including cancers and neurodegenerative disorders. Here, we review advances in understanding the roles of Pin1 signaling in health and disease and highlight conformational regulation as a distinct signal transduction checkpoint in disease development and treatment.

Abstract
Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers with a high mortality rate, underscoring the need to identify new therapeutic targets. Here we report that non-POU domain-containing octamer-binding (NONO) protein is overexpressed in breast cancer and validated the interaction of the WW domain of PIN1 with c-terminal threonine-proline (thr-pro) motifs of NONO. The interaction of NONO with PIN1 increases the stability of NONO by inhibiting its proteasomal degradation, and this identifies PIN1 as a positive regulator of NONO in promoting breast tumor development. Functionally, silencing of NONO inhibits the growth, survival, migration, invasion, epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT), and stemness of breast cancer cells in vitro. A human metastatic breast cancer cell xenograft was established in transparent zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos to study the metastatic inability of NONO-silenced breast cancer cells in vivo. Mechanistically, NONO depletion promotes the expression of the PDL1 cell-surface protein in breast cancer cells. The identification of novel interactions of NONO with c-Jun and β-catenin proteins and activation of the Akt/MAPK/β-catenin signaling suggests that NONO is a novel regulator of Akt/MAPK/β-catenin signaling pathways. Taken together, our results indicated an essential role of NONO in the tumorigenicity of breast cancer and could be a potential target for anti-cancerous drugs. Video Abstract.

Abstract
Cells possess membraneless ribonucleoprotein (RNP) granules, including stress granules, processing bodies, Cajal bodies, or paraspeckles, that play physiological or pathological roles. RNP granules contain RNA and numerous RNA-binding proteins, transiently formed through the liquid–liquid phase separation. The assembly or disassembly of numerous RNP granules is strongly controlled to maintain their homeostasis and perform their cellular functions properly. Normal RNA granules are reversibly assembled, whereas abnormal RNP granules accumulate and associate with various neurodegenerative diseases. This review summarizes current studies on the physiological or pathological roles of post-translational modifications of various cellular RNP granules and discusses the therapeutic methods in curing diseases related to abnormal RNP granules by autophagy.

PRMT1 enhances oncogenic arginine methylation of NONO in colorectal cancer. Oncogene 2021; 40:1375-1389.

Abstract
Arginine methylation is an important posttranslational modification catalyzed by protein arginine methyltransferases (PRMTs). However, the role of PRMTs in colorectal cancer (CRC) progression is not well understood. Here we report that non-POU domain-containing octamer-binding protein (NONO) is overexpressed in CRC tissue and is a potential marker for poor prognosis in CRC patients. NONO silencing resulted in decreased proliferation, migration, and invasion of CRC cells, whereas overexpression had the opposite effect. In a xenograft model, tumors derived from NONO-deficient CRC cells were smaller than those derived from wild-type (WT) cells, and PRMT1 inhibition blocked CRC xenograft progression. A mass spectrometry analysis indicated that NONO is a substrate of PRMT1. R251 of NONO was asymmetrically dimethylated by PRMT1 in vitro and in vivo. Compared to NONO WT cells, NONO R251K mutant-expressing CRC cells showed reduced proliferation, migration, and invasion, and PRMT1 knockdown or pharmacological inhibition abrogated the malignant phenotype associated with NONO asymmetric dimethylation in both KRAS WT and mutant CRC cells. Compared to adjacent normal tissue, PRMT1 was highly expressed in the CRC zone in clinical specimens, which was correlated with poor overall survival in patients with locally advanced CRC. These results demonstrate that PRMT1-mediated methylation of NONO at R251 promotes CRC growth and metastasis, and suggest that PRMT1 inhibition may be an effective therapeutic strategy for CRC treatment regardless of KRAS mutation status.

Abstract
The causative agent of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has infected millions and killed hundreds of thousands of people worldwide, highlighting an urgent need to develop antiviral therapies. Here we present a quantitative mass spectrometry-based phosphoproteomics survey of SARS-CoV-2 infection in Vero E6 cells, revealing dramatic rewiring of phosphorylation on host and viral proteins. SARS-CoV-2 infection promoted casein kinase II (CK2) and p38 MAPK activation, production of diverse cytokines, and shutdown of mitotic kinases, resulting in cell cycle arrest. Infection also stimulated a marked induction of CK2-containing filopodial protrusions possessing budding viral particles. Eighty-seven drugs and compounds were identified by mapping global phosphorylation profiles to dysregulated kinases and pathways. We found pharmacologic inhibition of the p38, CK2, CDK, AXL, and PIKFYVE kinases to possess antiviral efficacy, representing potential COVID-19 therapies.

Abstract
The non-POU domain-containing octamer-binding protein NONO/p54nrb , which belongs to the Drosophila behaviour/human splicing (DBHS) family, is a multifunctional nuclear protein rarely functioning alone. Emerging solid evidences showed that NONO engages in almost every step of gene regulation, including but not limited to mRNA splicing, DNA unwinding, transcriptional regulation, nuclear retention of defective RNA and DNA repair. NONO is involved in many biological processes including cell proliferation, apoptosis, migration and DNA damage repair. Dysregulation of NONO has been found in many types of cancer. In this review, we summarize the current and fast-growing knowledge about the regulation of NONO, its biological function and implications in tumorigenesis and cancer progression. Overall, significant findings about the roles of NONO have been made, which might make NONO to be a new biomarker or/and a possible therapeutic target for cancers.

J Mol Cell Cardiol 2019; 137:46-58. [PMID: 31634484 DOI: 10.1016/j.yjmcc.2019.10.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2019] [Revised: 10/06/2019] [Accepted: 10/17/2019] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
Non-POU-domain-containing octamer-binding protein (NONO), a component of multifunctional Drosophila behavior/human splicing (DBHS) family, plays an important role in regulating glucose and fat metabolism, circadian cycles, cell division, collagen formation and fibrosis. Dysfunctional variants of NONO have been described as the cause of congenital heart defects in males. However, the effects of NONO deficiency on the ventricular function and cardiac fibrosis as well as the related mechanisms are not clear. In the present study, we aimed to reveal the overall phenotypes, cardiac function and fibroblasts in NONO knockout (NONO KO) mice compared with the wild-type (WT) male littermates. The results showed that the birth rate of NONOgt/0 mice was much lower than their WT male littermates at the time of weaning. The body weight of NONOgt/0 mice was 19% lower than that of WT male littermates (27.2 ± 1.49 g vs. 22.01 ± 1.20 g, P < .001). NONO KO mice exhibited continuous higher mortality from birth to a year later (P < .05). Compared with those in the WT mice, the heart weight was lower(142.0 ± 8.7 mg vs. 179.0 ± 10.4 mg, P < .001), the heart weight to body weight ratio (HW/BW) was similar, the E/A ratio was higher (1.80 ± 0.47 vs. 1.44 ± 0.26, P < .05), and the left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDd) was significantly lower (2.72 ± 0.51 mm vs.3.54 ± 0.43 mm, P < .001) in the NONO KO mice. We also found excessive matrix deposition in vivo. In vitro, NONO deficiency led to fibroblasts hyperproliferation, while migration was inhibited, which would induce collagen maturation and deposition. Conversely, overexpression of NONO inhibited fibroblasts proliferation and increased migration which reduced collagen deposition. RNA-seq of cardiac fibroblasts further indicated that NONO deficiency upregulated the cell cycle regulators, which included cyclin B2, the origin recognition complex 1 (ORC1) and cell division cycle 6 (CDC6), while downregulated the migration regulators, which included myosins, integrin and coagulation factor II. Overexpression of NONO further verified the effects of these indicators. In conclusion, our study demonstrated that NONO deficiency was associated with developing heart defects in mice. Hyperproliferation of cardiac fibroblasts with dramatically excessive collagen secretion might be the cause of heart defects of NONO KO mice.

The RNA-Binding Protein NONO Coordinates Hepatic Adaptation to Feeding. Cell Metab 2018; 27:404-418.e7.

Abstract
The mechanisms by which feeding and fasting drive rhythmic gene expression for physiological adaptation to daily rhythm in nutrient availability are not well understood. Here we show that, upon feeding, the RNA-binding protein NONO accumulates within speckle-like structures in liver cell nuclei. Combining RNA-immunoprecipitation and sequencing (RIP-seq), we find that an increased number of RNAs are bound by NONO after feeding. We further show that NONO binds and regulates the rhythmicity of genes involved in nutrient metabolism post-transcriptionally. Finally, we show that disrupted rhythmicity of NONO target genes has profound metabolic impact. Indeed, NONO-deficient mice exhibit impaired glucose tolerance and lower hepatic glycogen and lipids. Accordingly, these mice shift from glucose storage to fat oxidation, and therefore remain lean throughout adulthood. In conclusion, our study demonstrates that NONO post-transcriptionally coordinates circadian mRNA expression of metabolic genes with the feeding/fasting cycle, thereby playing a critical role in energy homeostasis.

Abstract
While cellular senescence is a critical mechanism to prevent malignant transformation of potentially mutated cells, persistence of senescent cells can also promote cancer and aging phenotypes. NonO/p54nrb and PSF are multifunctional hnRNPs typically found as a complex exclusively within the nuclei of all mammalian cells. We demonstrate here that either increase or reduction of expression of either factor results in cellular senescence. Coincident with this, we observe expulsion of NonO and PSF-containing nuclear paraspeckles and posttranslational modification at G2/M. That senescence is mediated most robustly by overexpression of a cytoplasmic C-truncated form of NonO further indicated that translocation of NonO and PSF from the nucleus is critical to senescence induction. Modulation of NonO and PSF expression just prior to or coincident with senescence induction disrupts the normally heterodimeric NonO-PSF nuclear complex resulting in a dramatic shift in stoichiometry to heterotetramers and monomer with highest accumulation within the cytoplasm. This is accompanied by prototypic cell cycle checkpoint activation and chromatin condensation. These observations identify yet another role for these multifunctional factors and provide a hitherto unprecedented mechanism for cellular senescence and nuclear-cytoplasmic trafficking.

Abstract
The non-POU-domain-containing octamer binding protein (NONO; also known as p54nrb) has various nuclear functions ranging from transcription, RNA splicing, DNA synthesis and repair. Although tyrosine phosphorylation has been proposed to account for the multi-functional properties of p54nrb, direct evidence on p54nrb as a phosphotyrosine protein remains unclear. To investigate the tyrosine phosphorylation status of p54nrb, we performed site-directed mutagenesis on the five tyrosine residues of p54nrb, replacing the tyrosine residues with phenylalanine or alanine, and immunoblotted for tyrosine phosphorylation. We then preceded with luciferase reporter assays, RNA splicing minigene assays, co-immunoprecipitation, and confocal microscopy to study the function of p54nrb tyrosine residues on transcription, RNA splicing, protein-protein interaction, and cellular localization. We found that p54nrb was not phosphorylated at tyrosine residues. Rather, it has non-specific binding affinity to anti-phosphotyrosine antibodies. However, replacement of tyrosine with phenylalanine altered p54nrb activities in transcription co-repression and RNA splicing in gene context-dependent fashions by means of differential regulation of p54nrb protein association with its interacting partners and co-regulators of transcription and splicing. These results demonstrate that tyrosine residues, regardless of phosphorylation status, are important for p54nrb function. J. Cell. Physiol. 232: 852-861, 2017. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
Nuclear proteins are often given a concise title that captures their function, such as 'transcription factor,' 'polymerase' or 'nuclear-receptor.' However, for members of the Drosophila behavior/human splicing (DBHS) protein family, no such clean-cut title exists. DBHS proteins are frequently identified engaging in almost every step of gene regulation, including but not limited to, transcriptional regulation, RNA processing and transport, and DNA repair. Herein, we present a coherent picture of DBHS proteins, integrating recent structural insights on dimerization, nucleic acid binding modalities and oligomerization propensity with biological function. The emerging paradigm describes a family of dynamic proteins mediating a wide range of protein-protein and protein-nucleic acid interactions, on the whole acting as a multipurpose molecular scaffold. Overall, significant steps toward appreciating the role of DBHS proteins have been made, but we are only beginning to understand the complexity and broader importance of this family in cellular biology.

Abstract
Hypoxia-adapted cancer cells in tumors contribute to the pathological progression of cancer. Cancer research has therefore focused on the identification of molecules responsible for hypoxia adaptation in cancer cells, as well as the development of new compounds with action against hypoxia-adapted cancer cells. The marine natural product furospinosulin-1 (1) has displayed hypoxia-selective growth inhibition against cultured cancer cells, and has shown in vivo anti-tumor activity, although its precise mode of action and molecular targets remain unclear. In this study, we found that 1 is selectively effective against hypoxic regions of tumors, and that it directly binds to the transcriptional regulators p54(nrb) and LEDGF/p75, which have not been previously identified as mediators of hypoxia adaptation in cancer cells.

Abstract
High content protein interaction screens have revolutionized our understanding of protein complex assembly. However, one of the major challenges in translation of high content protein interaction data is identification of those interactions that are functionally relevant for a particular biological question. To address this challenge, we developed a relevance ranking platform (RRP), which consist of modular functional and bioinformatic filters to provide relevance rank among the interactome proteins. We demonstrate the versatility of RRP to enable a systematic prioritization of the most relevant interaction partners from high content data, highlighted by the analysis of cancer relevant protein interactions for oncoproteins Pin1 and PME-1. We validated the importance of selected interactions by demonstration of PTOV1 and CSKN2B as novel regulators of Pin1 target c-Jun phosphorylation and reveal previously unknown interacting proteins that may mediate PME-1 effects via PP2A-inhibition. The RRP framework is modular and can be modified to answer versatile research problems depending on the nature of the biological question under study. Based on comparison of RRP to other existing filtering tools, the presented data indicate that RRP offers added value especially for the analysis of interacting proteins for which there is no sufficient prior knowledge available. Finally, we encourage the use of RRP in combination with either SAINT or CRAPome computational tools for selecting the candidate interactors that fulfill the both important requirements, functional relevance, and high confidence interaction detection.

Abstract
HIV-1 interacts with numerous cellular proteins during viral replication. Identifying such host proteins and characterizing their roles in HIV-1 infection can deepen our understanding of the dynamic interplay between host and pathogen. We previously identified non-POU domain-containing octamer-binding protein (NonO or p54nrb) as one of host factors associated with catalytically active preintegration complexes (PIC) of HIV-1 in infected CD4(+) T cells. NonO is involved in nuclear processes including transcriptional regulation and RNA splicing. Although NonO has been identified as an HIV-1 interactant in several recent studies, its role in HIV-1 replication has not been characterized. We investigated the effect of NonO on the HIV-1 life cycle in CD4(+) T cell lines and primary CD4(+) T cells using single-cycle and replication-competent HIV-1 infection assays. We observed that short hairpin RNA (shRNA)-mediated stable NonO knockdown in a CD4(+) Jurkat T cell line and primary CD4(+) T cells did not affect cell viability or proliferation, but enhanced HIV-1 infection. The enhancement of HIV-1 infection in Jurkat T cells correlated with increased viral reverse transcription and gene expression. Knockdown of NonO expression in Jurkat T cells modestly enhanced HIV-1 gag mRNA expression and Gag protein synthesis, suggesting that viral gene expression and RNA regulation are the predominantly affected events causing enhanced HIV-1 replication in NonO knockdown (KD) cells. Furthermore, overexpression of NonO in Jurkat T cells reduced HIV-1 single-cycle infection by 41% compared to control cells. Our data suggest that NonO negatively regulates HIV-1 infection in CD4(+) T cells, albeit it has modest effects on early and late stages of the viral life cycle, highlighting the importance of host proteins associated with HIV-1 PIC in regulating viral replication.

Abstract
Mammalian circadian clocks restrict cell proliferation to defined time windows, but the mechanism and consequences of this interrelationship are not fully understood. Previously we identified the multifunctional nuclear protein NONO as a partner of circadian PERIOD (PER) proteins. Here we show that it also conveys circadian gating to the cell cycle, a connection surprisingly important for wound healing in mice. Specifically, although fibroblasts from NONO-deficient mice showed approximately normal circadian cycles, they displayed elevated cell doubling and lower cellular senescence. At a molecular level, NONO bound to the p16-Ink4A cell cycle checkpoint gene and potentiated its circadian activation in a PER protein-dependent fashion. Loss of either NONO or PER abolished this activation and circadian expression of p16-Ink4A and eliminated circadian cell cycle gating. In vivo, lack of NONO resulted in defective wound repair. Because wound healing defects were also seen in multiple circadian clock-deficient mouse lines, our results therefore suggest that coupling of the cell cycle to the circadian clock via NONO may be useful to segregate in temporal fashion cell proliferation from tissue organization.

Abstract
Factors interacting with core circadian clock components are essential to achieve transcriptional feedback necessary for metazoan clocks. Here, we show that all three members of the Drosophila behavior human splicing (DBHS) family of RNA-binding proteins play a role in the mammalian circadian oscillator, abrogating or altering clock function when overexpressed or depleted in cells. Although these proteins are members of so-called nuclear paraspeckles, depletion of paraspeckles themselves via silencing of the structural noncoding RNA (ncRNA) Neat1 did not affect overall clock function, suggesting that paraspeckles are not required for DBHS-mediated circadian effects. Instead, we show that the proteins bound to circadian promoter DNA in a fashion that required the PERIOD (PER) proteins and potently repressed E-box-mediated transcription but not cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter-mediated transcription when they were exogenously recruited. Nevertheless, mice with one or both copies of these genes deleted show only small changes in period length or clock gene expression in vivo. Data from transient transfections show that each of these proteins can either repress or activate, depending on the context. Taken together, our data suggest that all of the DBHS family members serve overlapping or redundant roles as transcriptional cofactors at circadian clock-regulated genes.

Abstract
Pin1 is a highly conserved enzyme that only isomerizes specific phosphorylated Ser/Thr-Pro bonds in certain proteins, thereby inducing conformational changes. Such conformational changes represent a novel and tightly controlled signaling mechanism regulating a spectrum of protein activities in physiology and disease; often through phosphorylation-dependent, ubiquitin-mediated proteasomal degradation. In this review, we summarize recent advances in elucidating the role and regulation of Pin1 in controlling protein stability. We also propose a mechanism by which Pin1 functions as a molecular switch to control the fates of phosphoproteins. We finally stress the need to develop tools to visualize directly Pin1-catalyzed protein conformational changes as a way to determine their roles in the development and treatment of human diseases.

Abstract
The RNA-binding protein p54nrb is involved in many nuclear processes including transcription, RNA processing, and retention of hyperedited RNAs. In interphase cells, p54nrb localizes to the nucleoplasm and concentrates with protein partners in the paraspeckles via an interaction with the non-coding RNA Neat1. During mitosis, p54nrb becomes multiphosphorylated and the effects of this modification are not known. In the present study, we show that p54nrb phosphorylation does not affect the interactions with its protein partners but rather diminishes its general RNA-binding ability. Biochemical assays indicate that in vitro phosphorylation of a GST-p54nrb construct by CDK1 abolishes the interaction with 5′ splice site RNA sequence. Site-directed mutagenesis shows that the threonine 15 residue, located N-terminal to the RRM tandem domains of p54nrb, is involved in this inhibition. In vivo analysis reveals that Neat1 ncRNA co-immunoprecipitates with p54nrb in either interphase or mitotic cells, suggesting that p54nrb–Neat1 interaction is not modulated by phosphorylation. Accordingly, in vitro phosphorylated GST-p54nrb still interacts with PIR-1 RNA, a G-rich Neat1 sequence known to interact with p54nrb. In vitro RNA binding assays show that CDK1-phosphorylation of a GST-p54nrb construct abolishes its interaction with homoribopolymers poly(A), poly(C), and poly(U) but not with poly(G). These data suggest that p54nrb interaction with RNA could be selectively modulated by phosphorylation during mitosis.

Abstract
Paraspeckles are ribonucleoprotein bodies found in the interchromatin space of mammalian cell nuclei. These structures play a role in regulating the expression of certain genes in differentiated cells by nuclear retention of RNA. The core paraspeckle proteins (PSF/SFPQ, P54NRB/NONO, and PSPC1 [paraspeckle protein 1]) are members of the DBHS (Drosophila melanogaster behavior, human splicing) family. These proteins, together with the long nonprotein-coding RNA NEAT1 (MEN-ϵ/β), associate to form paraspeckles and maintain their integrity. Given the large numbers of long noncoding transcripts currently being discovered through whole transcriptome analysis, paraspeckles may be a paradigm for a class of subnuclear bodies formed around long noncoding RNA.

Abstract
Pin1 is involved in eukaryotic cell proliferation by changing the structure and function of phosphorylated proteins. PiB, the Pin1 specific inhibitor, blocks cancer cell proliferation. However, low solubility of PiB in DMSO has limited studies of its effectiveness. We screened for additional Pin1 inhibitors and identified the DMSO-soluble compound dipentamethylene thiuram monosulfide (DTM) that inhibits Pin1 activity with an EC50 value of 4.1 microM. Molecular modeling and enzyme kinetic analysis indicated that DTM competitively inhibits Pin1 activity, with a K(i) value of 0.05 microM. The K(D) value of DTM with Pin1 was determined to be 0.06 microM by SPR technology. Moreover, DTM specifically inhibited peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerase activity in HeLa cells. FACS analysis showed that DTM induced G0 arrest of the HCT116 cells. Our results suggest that DTM has the potential to guide the development of novel antifungal and/or anticancer drugs.

Abstract
The intracellular negatively regulatory mechanism which affects IL-1beta-induced MUC8 gene expression remains unclear. We found that SOCS3 overexpression suppressed IL-1beta-induced MUC8 gene expression in NCI-H292 cells, whereas silencing of SOCS3 restored IL-1beta-induced MUC8 gene expression. Sequentially activated ERK1/2, RSK1, and CREB by IL-1beta were not affected by SOCS3, indicating that SOCS3 has an independent mechanism of action. Using immunoprecipitaion and nano LC mass analysis, we found that SOCS3 bound NonO (non-POU-domain containing, octamer-binding domain protein) in the absence of IL-1beta, whereas IL-1beta treatment dissociated the direct binding of SOCS3 and NonO. A dominant-negative SOCS3 mutant (Y204F/Y221F) did not bind to NonO. Interestingly, SOCS3 overexpression dramatically suppressed MUC8 gene expression in cells transfected with wild-type or siRNA of NonO. Moreover, silencing of SOCS3 dramatically increased NonO-mediated MUC8 gene expression caused by IL-1beta compared to NonO overexpression alone, suggesting that SOCS3 acts as a suppressor by regulating the action of NonO.

Abstract
Microtubule interfering agents (MIAs) are anti-tumor drugs that inhibit microtubule dynamics, while kinesin spindle protein (KSP) inhibitors are substances that block the formation of the bipolar spindle during mitosis. All these compounds cause G2/M arrest and cell death. Using 2D-PAGE followed by Nano-LC-ESI-Q-ToF analysis, we found that MIAs such as vincristine (Oncovin) or paclitaxel (Taxol) and KSP inhibitors such as S-tritil-l-cysteine induce the phosphorylation of the nuclear protein p54(nrb) in HeLa cells. Furthermore, we demonstrate that cisplatin (Platinol), an anti-tumor drug that does not cause M arrest, does not induce this modification. We show that the G2/M arrest induced by MIAs is required for p54(nrb) phosphorylation. Finally, we demonstrate that CDK activity is required for MIA-induced phosphorylation of p54(nrb).

Large-scale identification of novel mitosis-specific phosphoproteins. BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA-PROTEINS AND PROTEOMICS 2008; 1784:882-90.

Abstract
Systematic identification of phosphoproteins is essential for understanding cellular signalling pathways since phosphorylation plays important roles in cellular regulation. Monoclonal antibody MPM-2 recognizes a discrete set of mitosis-specific phosphoproteins and constitutes a specific tool to investigate the significance of phosphorylation in cell cycle. However, due to the difficulties in identifying antigens revealed on immunoblot membrane, only minority of MPM-2 antigens have been identified. Here we originated proteomics approaches for large-scale identification of MPM-2 phosphoproteins. Mitotic extracts were run on several two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2D) in parallel, and stained by Coomassie Blue. Each individual spot on one of the gels was excised, and proteins in it were further resolved by regular SDS-electrophoresis and blotted on membrane for MPM-2 stain. Counterparts of the positive proteins were selected on another parallel 2D gel and identified by mass-spectrometry. Using this strategy, 100 spots were excised from Coomassie-stained 2D gel and screened by 1D immunoblots for MPM-2 reactivity, and 22 proteins containing potential MPM-2 epitope were identified in addition to a known MPM-2 antigen, laminin-binding protein. These results were further validated by immunofluorescence, co-immunoprecipitation and in vitro phosphorylation assay. The identification of an unprecedented number of potential MPM-2 phosphoprotein antigens gives new insight into the range of proteins involved in the regulation of the early stages of cell division. Meanwhile, this strategy could be used wherever unknown antigens are explored, especially for antibodies that can recognize more than one antigen.

Abstract
Progression of germ cells through meiosis is regulated by phosphorylation events. We previously showed the key role of cyclin dependent kinases in meiotic divisions of rat spermatocytes co-cultured with Sertoli cells (SC). In the present study, we used the same culture system to address the role of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) in meiotic progression. Phosphorylated ERK1/2 were detected in vivo and in freshly isolated SC and in pachytene spermatocytes (PS) as early as 3 h after seeding on SC. The yield of the two meiotic divisions and the percentage of highly MPM-2-labeled pachytene and secondary spermatocytes (SII) were decreased in co-cultures treated with U0126, an inhibitor of the ERK-activating kinases, MEK1/2. Pre-incubation of PS with U0126 resulted in a reduced number of in vitro formed round spermatids without modifying the number of SII or the MPM-2 labeling of PS or SII. Conversely, pre-treatment of SC with U0126 led to a decrease in the percentage of highly MPM-2-labeled PS associated with a decreased number of SII and round spermatids. These results show that meiotic progression of spermatocytes is dependent on SC-activated MAPKs. In addition, high MPM-2 labeling was not acquired by PS cultured alone in Sertoli cell conditioned media, indicating a specific need for cell-cell contact between germ cells and SC.

Abstract
The C-terminal domain of the RNA polymerase (RNAP) II largest subunit (CTD) plays a critical role in coordinating multiple events in pre-mRNA transcription and processing. Previously we reported that the peptidyl prolyl isomerase Pin1 modulates RNAP II function during the cell cycle. Here we provide evidence that Pin1 affects multiple aspects of RNAP II function via its regulation of CTD phosphorylation. Using chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays with CTD phospho-specific antibodies, we confirm that RNAP II displays a dynamic association with specific genes during the cell cycle, preferentially associating with transcribed genes in S phase, while disassociating in M phase in a matter that correlates with changes in CTD phosphorylation. Using inducible Pin1 cell lines, we show that Pin1 overexpression is sufficient to release RNAP II from chromatin, which then accumulates in a hyperphosphorylated form in nuclear speckle-associated structures. In vitro transcription assays show that Pin1 inhibits transcription in nuclear extract, while an inactive Pin1 mutant in fact stimulates it. Several assays indicate that the inhibition largely reflects Pin1 activity during transcription initiation and not elongation, suggesting that Pin1 modulates CTD phosphorylation, and RNAP II activity, during an early stage of the transcription cycle.

Abstract
To identify new potential substrates for the MAP kinase signal-integrating kinases (Mnks), we employed a proteomic approach. The Mnks are targeted to the translational machinery through their interaction with the cap-binding initiation factor complex. We tested whether proteins retained on cap resin were substrates for the Mnks in vitro, and identified one such protein as PSF (the PTB (polypyrimidine tract-binding protein)-associated splicing factor). Mnks phosphorylate PSF at two sites in vitro, and our data show that PSF is an Mnk substrate in vivo. We also demonstrate that PSF, together with its partner, p54(nrb), binds RNAs that contain AU-rich elements (AREs), such as those for proinflammatory cytokines (e.g. tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha)). Indeed, PSF associates specifically with the TNFalpha mRNA in living cells. PSF is phosphorylated at two sites by the Mnks. Our data show that Mnk-mediated phosphorylation increases the binding of PSF to the TNFalpha mRNA in living cells. These findings identify a novel Mnk substrate. They also suggest that the Mnk-catalyzed phosphorylation of PSF may regulate the fate of specific mRNAs by modulating their binding to PSF.p54(nrb).

Abstract
The human peptidyl prolyl cis/trans isomerase (PPIase) Pin1 has a key role in developmental processes and cell proliferation. Pin1 consists of an N-terminal WW domain and a C-terminal catalytic PPIase domain both targeted specifically to Ser(PO(3)H(2))/Thr(PO(3)H(2))-Pro sequences. Here, we report the enhanced affinity originating from bivalent binding of ligands toward Pin1 compared to monovalent binding. We developed composite peptides where an N-terminal segment represents a catalytic site-directed motif and a C-terminal segment exhibits a predominant affinity to the WW domain of Pin1 tethered by polyproline linkers of different chain length. We used NMR shift perturbation experiments to obtain information on the specific interaction of a bivalent ligand to both targeted sites of Pin1. The bivalent ligands allowed a considerable range of thermodynamic investigations using isothermal titration calorimetry and PPIase activity assays. They expressed up to 350-fold improved affinity toward Pin1 in the nanomolar range in comparison to the monovalent peptides. The distance between the two binding motifs was highly relevant for affinity. The optimum in affinity manifested by a linker length of five prolyl residues between active site- and WW domain-directed peptide fragments suggests that the corresponding domains in Pin1 are allowed to adopt preferred spatial arrangement upon ligand binding.

Abstract
Termination of RNA polymerase II transcription frequently requires a poly(A) signal and cleavage/polyadenylation factors. Recent work has shown that degradation of the downstream cleaved RNA by the exonuclease XRN2 promotes termination, but how XRN2 functions with 3'-processing factors to elicit termination remains unclear. Here we show that XRN2 physically associates with 3'-processing factors and accumulates at the 3' end of a transcribed gene. In vitro 3'-processing assays show that XRN2 is necessary to degrade the downstream RNA, but is not required for 3' cleavage. Significantly, degradation of the 3'-cleaved RNA was stimulated when coupled to cleavage. Unexpectedly, while investigating how XRN2 is recruited to the 3'-processing machinery, we found that XRN2 associates with p54nrb/NonO(p54)-protein-associated splicing factor (PSF), multifunctional proteins involved in several nuclear processes. Strikingly, p54 is also required for degradation of the 3'-cleaved RNA in vitro. p54 is present along the length of genes, and small interfering RNA (siRNA)-mediated knockdown leads to defects in XRN2 recruitment and termination. Together, our data indicate that p54nrb/PSF functions in recruitment of XRN2 to facilitate pre-mRNA 3' processing and transcription termination.

Abstract
To identify genes linked to early stages of disruption of brain sexual differentiation, hypothalamic region-specific microarray analyses were performed using a microdissection technique with neonatal rats exposed to endocrine-acting drugs. To validate the methodology, the expression fidelity of microarrays was first examined with two-round amplified antisense RNAs (aRNAs) from methacarn-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue (PET) in comparison with expression in unfixed frozen tissue (UFT). Decline of expression fidelity when compared with the 1x-amplified aRNAs from UFTs was found as a result of the preferential amplification of the 3' side of mRNAs in the second round in vitro transcription. However, expression patterns for the 2x-amplified aRNAs were mostly identical between methacarn-fixed PET and UFT, suggesting no obvious influence of methacarn fixation and subsequent paraffin embedding on expression levels. Next, in the main experiment, neonatal rats at birth were treated subcutaneously either with estradiol benzoate (EB; 10 microg/pup) or flutamide (FA; 250 microg/pup), and medial preoptic area (MPOA)-specific microarray analysis was performed 24 h later using 2x-amplified aRNAs from methacarn-fixed PET. Numbers of genes showing constitutively high expression in the MPOA predominated in males, implying a link with male-type growth supported by perinatal testosterone. Around 60% of genes showing sex differences in expression demonstrated altered levels after EB treatment in females, suggesting an involvement of genes necessary for brain sexual differentiation. When compared with EB, FA affected a rather small number of genes, but fluctuation was mostly observed in females, as with EB. Moreover, many selected genes common to EB and FA showed down-regulation in females with both drugs, suggesting a common mechanism for endocrine center disruption in females, at least at early stages of post-natal development.

Abstract
Although the importance of the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) pathway in regulating the transition from G1 to S has been extensively studied, its role during the G2/M transition is less well understood. Previous reports have shown that inhibition of the ERK pathway in mammalian cells delays entry as well as progression through mitosis, suggesting the existence of molecular targets of this pathway in M phase. In this report we employed 2-DE and MS to survey proteins and PTMs in the presence versus absence of MKK1/2 inhibitor. Targets of the ERK pathway in G2/M were identified as elongation factor 2 (EF2) and nuclear matrix protein, 55 kDa (Nmt55). Phosphorylation of each protein increased under conditions of ERK pathway inhibition, suggesting indirect control of these targets; regulation of EF2 was ascribed to phosphorylation and inactivation of upstream EF2 kinase, whereas regulation of Nmt55 was ascribed to a delay in normal mitotic phosphorylation and dephosphorylation. 2-DE Western blots probed using anti-phospho-Thr-Pro antibody demonstrated that the effect of ERK inhibition is not to delay the onset of phosphorylation controlled by cdc2 and other mitotic kinases, but rather to regulate a small subset of targets in M phase in a nonoverlapping manner with cdc2.

Abstract
Proteins containing phosphorylated Ser/Thr-Pro motifs play key roles in numerous regulatory processes in the cell. The peptidyl prolyl cis/trans isomerase Pin1 specifically catalyzes the conformational transition of phosphorylated Ser/Thr-Pro motifs. Here we report the direct analysis of the thermodynamic properties of the interaction of the PPIase Pin1 with its substrate-analogue inhibitor Ac-Phe-D-Thr(PO3H2)-Pip-Nal-Gln-NH2 specifically targeted to the PPIase active site based on the combination of isothermal titration calorimetry and studies on inhibition of enzymatic activity of wt Pin1 and active site variants. Determination of the thermodynamic parameters revealed an enthalpically and entropically favored interaction characterized by binding enthalpy deltaH(ITC) of -6.3 +/- 0.1 kcal mol(-1) and a TdeltaS(ITC) of 4.1 +/- 0.1 kcal mol(-1). The resulting dissociation constant KD for binding of the peptidic inhibitor with 1.8 x 10(-8) M resembles the dissociation constant of a Pin1 substrate in the transition state, suggesting a transition state analogue conformation of the bound inhibitor. The strongly decreased affinity of Pin1 for ligand at increasing ionic strength implicates that the potential of bidentate binding of a substrate protein by the PPIase and the WW domain of Pin1 may be required to deploy improved efficiency and specificity of Pin1 under conditions of physiological ionic strength.

Abstract
We investigated the enzyme activity of peptidyl prolyl cis/trans isomerases (PPIases) in brain, testis, lung, liver, and mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEF) of Pin1+/+ and Pin1-/- mice. The aim of this study is to determine if other PPIases can substitute for the loss of Pin1 activity in Pin1-/- mice and what influence Pin1 depletion has on the activities of other PPIases members. The results show that high PPIase activities of Pin1 are found in organs that have the tendency to develop Pin1 knockout phenotypes and, therefore, provide for the first time an enzymological basis for these observations. Furthermore we determined the specific activity (k(cat)/K(M)) of endogenous Pin1 and found that it is strongly reduced as compared with the recombinant protein in all investigated organs. These results suggest that posttranslational modifications may influence the PPIase activity in vivo. The activities originating from cyclophilin and FKBP are not influenced by the Pin1 knockout, but a basal enzymatic activity towards phosphorylated substrates could be found in Pin1-/- lysates. Real time PCR experiments of all PPIases in different mouse organs and MEF of Pin1+/+ and Pin1-/- mice support the finding and reveal the specific expression profiles of PPIases in mice.

Abstract
P54nrb is a protein implicated in multiple nuclear processes whose specific functions may correlate with its presence at different nuclear locations. Here we characterize paraspeckles, a subnuclear domain containing p54nrb and other RNA-binding proteins including PSP1, a protein with sequence similarity to p54nrb that acts as a marker for paraspeckles. We show that PSP1 interacts in vivo with a subset of the total cellular pool of p54nrb. We map the domain within PSP1 that is mediating this interaction and show it is required for the correct localization of PSP1 to paraspeckles. This interaction is necessary but not sufficient for paraspeckle targeting by PSP1, which also requires an RRM capable of RNA binding. Blocking the reinitiation of RNA Pol II transcription at the end of mitosis with DRB prevents paraspeckle formation, which recommences after removal of DRB, indicating that paraspeckle formation is dependent on RNA Polymerase II transcription. Thus paraspeckles are the sites where a subset of the total cellular pool of p54nrb is targeted in a RNA Polymerase II-dependent manner.
