Structural and functional characterization of the role of acetylation on the interactions of the human Atg8-family proteins with the autophagy receptor TP53INP2/DOR. Autophagy 2024:1-20. [PMID: 38726830 DOI: 10.1080/15548627.2024.2353443] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2023] [Accepted: 05/05/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024] Open
Abstract
The Atg8-family proteins (MAP1LC3/LC3A, LC3B, LC3C, GABARAP, GABARAPL1 and GABARAPL2) play a pivotal role in macroautophagy/autophagy through their ability to help form autophagosomes. Although autophagosomes form in the cytoplasm, nuclear levels of the Atg8-family proteins are significant. Recently, the nuclear/cytoplasmic shuttling of LC3B was shown to require deacetylation of two Lys residues (K49 and K51 in LC3B), which are conserved in Atg8-family proteins. To exit the nucleus, deacetylated LC3B must bind TP53INP2/DOR (tumor protein p53 inducible nuclear protein 2) through interaction with the LC3-interacting region (LIR) of TP53INP2 (TP53INP2LIR). To examine their selectivity for TP53INP2 and the role of the conserved Lys residues in Atg8-family proteins, we prepared the six human Atg8-family proteins and acetylated variants of LC3A and GABARAP for biophysical and structural characterization of their interactions with the TP53INP2LIR. Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) experiments demonstrate that this LIR binds preferentially to GABARAP subfamily proteins, and that only acetylation of the second Lys residue reduces binding to GABARAP and LC3A. Crystal structures of complexes with GABARAP and LC3A (acetylated and deacetylated) define a β-sheet in the TP53INP2LIR that determines the GABARAP selectivity and establishes the importance of acetylation at the second Lys. The in vitro results were confirmed in cells using acetyl-mimetic variants of GABARAP and LC3A to examine nuclear/cytoplasmic shuttling and colocalization with TP53INP2. Together, the results demonstrate that TP53INP2 shows selectivity to the GABARAP subfamily and acetylation at the second Lys of GABARAP and LC3A disrupts key interactions with TP53INP2 required for their nuclear/cytoplasmic shuttling.

Abstract
Peroxisomes are organelles that carry out β-oxidation of fatty acids and amino acids. Both rare and prevalent diseases are caused by their dysfunction1. Among disease-causing variant genes are those required for protein transport into peroxisomes. The peroxisomal protein import machinery, which also shares similarities with chloroplasts2, is unique in transporting folded and large, up to 10 nm in diameter, protein complexes into peroxisomes3. Current models postulate a large pore formed by transmembrane proteins4; however, so far, no pore structure has been observed. In the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the minimum transport machinery includes the membrane proteins Pex13 and Pex14 and the cargo-protein-binding transport receptor, Pex5. Here we show that Pex13 undergoes liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) with Pex5-cargo. Intrinsically disordered regions in Pex13 and Pex5 resemble those found in nuclear pore complex proteins. Peroxisomal protein import depends on both the number and pattern of aromatic residues in these intrinsically disordered regions, consistent with their roles as 'stickers' in associative polymer models of LLPS5,6. Finally, imaging fluorescence cross-correlation spectroscopy shows that cargo import correlates with transient focusing of GFP-Pex13 and GFP-Pex14 on the peroxisome membrane. Pex13 and Pex14 form foci in distinct time frames, suggesting that they may form channels at different saturating concentrations of Pex5-cargo. Our findings lead us to suggest a model in which LLPS of Pex5-cargo with Pex13 and Pex14 results in transient protein transport channels7.

Abstract
Post-translational modification by Small Ubiquitin-like Modifier (SUMO) proteins regulates numerous cellular processes. This modification involves the covalent and reversible attachment of SUMO to target proteins through an isopeptide bond, using a cascade of E1, E2 and E3 SUMOylation enzymes. Most functions of SUMO depend on the establishment of non-covalent protein-protein interactions between SUMOylated substrates and their binding partners. The vast majority of these interactions involve a conserved surface in the SUMO protein and a SUMO interacting motif (SIM), a short stretch of hydrophobic amino acids and an acidic region, in the interactor protein. Despite single SUMO-SIM interactions are relatively weak, they can have a huge impact at different levels, altering the activity, localization and stability of proteins, triggering the formation of macromolecular assemblies or inducing phase separation. Moreover, SUMO-SIM interactions are ubiquitous in most enzymes of the SUMO pathway, and play essential roles in SUMO conjugation and deconjugation. Here, we analyze the role of SUMO-SIM contacts in SUMO enzymes and targets and discuss how this humble interaction participates in SUMOylation reactions and mediates the outcome of this essential post-translational modification.

Abstract
By forming specific functional entities, nuclear biomolecular condensates play an important function in guiding biological processes. PML biomolecular condensates, also known as PML nuclear bodies (NBs), are macro-molecular sub-nuclear organelles involved in central biological processes, including anti-viral response and cell fate control upon genotoxic stress. PML condensate formation is stimulated upon cellular stress, and relies on protein-protein interactions establishing a PML protein meshwork capable of recruiting the tumor suppressor p53, along with numerous modifiers of p53, thus balancing p53 posttranslational modifications and activity. This stress-regulated process appears to be controlled by liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS), which may facilitate regulated protein-unmixing of p53 and its regulators into PML nuclear condensates. In this review, we summarize and discuss the molecular mechanisms underlying PML nuclear condensate formation, and how these impact the biological function of p53 in driving the cell death and senescence responses. In addition, by using an in silico approach, we identify 299 proteins which share PML and p53 as binding partners, thus representing novel candidate proteins controlling p53 function and cell fate decision-making at the level of PML nuclear biocondensates.

Abstract
SUMO proteins are important regulators of many key cellular functions in part through their ability to form interactions with other proteins containing SUMO interacting motifs (SIMs). One characteristic feature of all SUMO proteins is the presence of a highly divergent intrinsically disordered region at their N-terminus. In this study, we examine the role of this N-terminal region of SUMO proteins in SUMO–SIM interactions required for the formation of nuclear bodies by the promyelocytic leukemia (PML) protein (PML-NBs). We demonstrate that the N-terminal region of SUMO1 functions in a paralog specific manner as an auto-inhibition domain by blocking its binding to the phosphorylated SIMs of PML and Daxx. Interestingly, we find that this auto-inhibition in SUMO1 is relieved by zinc, and structurally show that zinc stabilizes the complex between SUMO1 and a phospho-mimetic form of the SIM of PML. In addition, we demonstrate that increasing cellular zinc levels enhances PML-NB formation in senescent cells. Taken together, these results provide important insights into a paralog specific function of SUMO1, and suggest that zinc levels could play a crucial role in regulating SUMO1-SIM interactions required for PML-NB formation and function.

Abstract
In this work, we performed a comparative study of the formation of PML bodies by full-length PML isoforms and their C-terminal domains in the presence and absence of endogenous PML. Based on the analysis of the distribution of intrinsic disorder predisposition in the amino acid sequences of PML isoforms, regions starting from the amino acid residue 395 (i.e., sequences encoded by exons 4–6) were assigned as the C-terminal domains of these proteins. We demonstrate that each of the full-sized nuclear isoforms of PML is capable of forming nuclear liquid-droplet compartments in the absence of other PML isoforms. These droplets possess dynamic characteristics of the exchange with the nucleoplasm close to those observed in the wild-type cells. Only the C-terminal domains of the PML-II and PML-V isoforms are able to be included in the composition of the endogenous PML bodies, while being partially distributed in the nucleoplasm. The bodies formed by the C-terminal domain of the PML-II isoform are dynamic liquid droplet compartments, regardless of the presence or absence of endogenous PML. The C-terminal domain of PML-V forms dynamic liquid droplet compartments in the knockout cells (PML−/−), but when the C-terminus of the PML-V isoform is inserted into the existing endogenous PML bodies, the molecules of this protein cease to exchange with the nucleoplasm. It was demonstrated that the K490R substitution, which disrupts the PML sumoylation, promotes diffuse distribution of the C-terminal domains of PML-II and PML-V isoforms in endogenous PML knockout HeLa cells, but not in the wild-type cells. These data indicate the ability of the C-terminal domains of the PML-II and PML-V isoforms to form dynamic liquid droplet-like compartments, regardless of the ordered N-terminal RBCC motifs of the PML. This indicates a significant role of the non-specific interactions between the mostly disordered C-terminal domains of PML isoforms for the initiation of liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS) leading to the formation of PML bodies.

Abstract
Small ubiquitin-related modifier (SUMO) is a member of the ubiquitin-related protein family. SUMO modulates protein function through covalent conjugation to lysine residues in a large number of proteins. Once covalently conjugated to a protein, SUMO often regulates that protein’s function by recruiting other cellular proteins. Recruitment frequently involves a non-covalent interaction between SUMO and a SUMO-interacting motif (SIM) in the interacting protein. SIMs generally consist of a four-residue-long hydrophobic stretch of amino acids with aliphatic non-polar side chains flanked on one side by negatively charged amino acid residues. The SIM assumes an extended β-strand-like conformation and binds to a conserved hydrophobic groove in SUMO. In addition to hydrophobic interactions between the SIM non-polar core and hydrophobic residues in the groove, the negatively charged residues in the SIM make favorable electrostatic contacts with positively charged residues in and around the groove. The SIM/SUMO interaction can be regulated by the phosphorylation of residues adjacent to the SIM hydrophobic core, which provide additional negative charges for favorable electrostatic interaction with SUMO. The SUMO interactome consists of hundreds or perhaps thousands of SIM-containing proteins, but we do not fully understand how each SUMOylated protein selects the set of SIM-containing proteins appropriate to its function. SIM/SUMO interactions have critical functions in a large number of essential cellular processes including the formation of membraneless organelles by liquid–liquid phase separation, epigenetic regulation of transcription through histone modification, DNA repair, and a variety of host–pathogen interactions.

Abstract
Metabolic rewiring and redox balance play pivotal roles in cancer. Cellular senescence is a barrier for tumorigenesis circumvented in cancer cells by poorly understood mechanisms. We report a multi-enzymatic complex that reprograms NAD metabolism by transferring reducing equivalents from NADH to NADP+. This hydride transfer complex (HTC) is assembled by malate dehydrogenase 1, malic enzyme 1, and cytosolic pyruvate carboxylase. HTC is found in phase-separated bodies in the cytosol of cancer or hypoxic cells and can be assembled in vitro with recombinant proteins. HTC is repressed in senescent cells but induced by p53 inactivation. HTC enzymes are highly expressed in mouse and human prostate cancer models, and their inactivation triggers senescence. Exogenous expression of HTC is sufficient to bypass senescence, rescue cells from complex I inhibitors, and cooperate with oncogenic RAS to transform primary cells. Altogether, we provide evidence for a new multi-enzymatic complex that reprograms metabolism and overcomes cellular senescence.

The Role of Non-Specific Interactions in Canonical and ALT-Associated PML-Bodies Formation and Dynamics. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22115821. [PMID: 34072343 PMCID: PMC8198325 DOI: 10.3390/ijms22115821] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2020] [Revised: 04/30/2021] [Accepted: 05/22/2021] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
In this work, we put forward a hypothesis about the decisive role of multivalent nonspecific interactions in the early stages of PML body formation. Our analysis of the PML isoform sequences showed that some of the PML isoforms, primarily PML-II, are prone to phase separation due to their polyampholytic properties and the disordered structure of their C-terminal domains. The similarity of the charge properties of the C-terminal domains of PML-II and PML-VI isoforms made it possible for the first time to detect migration of PML-VI from PML bodies to the periphery of the cell nucleus, similar to the migration of PML-II isoforms. We found a population of “small” (area less than 1 µm2) spherical PML bodies with high dynamics of PML isoforms exchange with nucleoplasm and a low fraction of immobilized proteins, which indicates their liquid state properties. Such structures can act as “seeds” of functionally active PML bodies, providing the necessary concentration of PML isoforms for the formation of intermolecular disulfide bonds between PML monomers. FRAP analysis of larger bodies of toroidal topology showed the existence of an insoluble scaffold in their structure. The hypothesis about the role of nonspecific multiple weak interactions in the formation of PML bodies is further supported by the change in the composition of the scaffold proteins of PML bodies, but not their solidification, under conditions of induction of dimerization of PML isoforms under oxidative stress. Using the colocalization of ALT-associated PML bodies (APBs) with TRF1, we identified APBs and showed the difference in the dynamic properties of APBs and canonical PML bodies.

Abstract
Eukaryotic cells compartmentalize their internal milieu in order to achieve specific reactions in time and space. This organization in distinct compartments is essential to allow subcellular processing of regulatory signals and generate specific cellular responses. In the nucleus, genetic information is packaged in the form of chromatin, an organized and repeated nucleoprotein structure that is a source of epigenetic information. In addition, cells organize the distribution of macromolecules via various membrane-less nuclear organelles, which have gathered considerable attention in the last few years. The macromolecular multiprotein complexes known as Promyelocytic Leukemia Nuclear Bodies (PML NBs) are an archetype for nuclear membrane-less organelles. Chromatin interactions with nuclear bodies are important to regulate genome function. In this review, we will focus on the dynamic interplay between PML NBs and chromatin. We report how the structure and formation of PML NBs, which may involve phase separation mechanisms, might impact their functions in the regulation of chromatin dynamics. In particular, we will discuss how PML NBs participate in the chromatinization of viral genomes, as well as in the control of specific cellular chromatin assembly pathways which govern physiological mechanisms such as senescence or telomere maintenance.

Cell Death Dis 2020; 11:514. [PMID: 32641734 PMCID: PMC7343808 DOI: 10.1038/s41419-020-2718-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2020] [Revised: 06/20/2020] [Accepted: 06/23/2020] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
Death domain-associated protein (DAXX) is a complex biological multifunctional protein and is involved in the tumorigenesis and progression of multiple cancers. The accumulation of DAXX in the nucleus is a common phenomenon in tumor cells. However, altering the subcellular localizations of DAXX results in different biological functions, and we also found that its nuclear/cytoplasmic ratio (NCR) was associated with poor prognosis in gastric cancer (GC). In this study, we investigated the effect of cytoplasmic and nuclear DAXX (cDAXX and nDAXX) in GC and the underlying mechanisms. Immunohistochemical detection performed in 323 GC tissues reveled that cDAXX was associated with a better survival, while high nDAXX expression suggested a poorer prognosis outcome. Upregulation of DAXX in the cytoplasm inhibited cell proliferation and promoted apoptosis, whereas downregulation of DAXX in the nucleus displayed opposite effects. Moreover, Transwell assays revealed that DAXX enhanced GC cell migration and invasion. Analysis from the Gene Expression Profile Interactive Analysis (GEPIA) database showed that the expression of DAXX was significantly associated with SUMO-2/3 in GC tissues. Co-immunoprecipitation combined with immunofluorescence analysis indicated that DAXX interacted directly with SUMO-2/3. Subsequently, down-regulating the expression of SUMO-2/3 resulted in altered subcellular localization of DAXX. Bioinformatics analysis showed that RanBP2 may act as SUMO E3 ligase to promote nuclear-plasma transport via combining with RanGAP1. Taken together, our results indicated that DAXX plays opposing roles in GC and suggest a new model whereby cDAXX, nDAXX, and SUMO-2/3 form a molecular network that regulates the subcellular localization of DAXX and thereby modulates its opposing biological effects. Thus, our findings provide a foundation for future studies of DAXX as a novel therapeutic target for patients with GC.

Abstract
Targeted therapy has become increasingly important in cancer therapy. For example, targeting the promyelocytic leukemia PML protein in leukemia has proved to be an effective treatment. PML is the core component of super-assembled structures called PML nuclear bodies (NBs). Although this nuclear megaDalton complex was first observed in the 1960s, the mechanism of its assembly remains poorly understood. We review recent breakthroughs in the PML field ranging from a revised assembly mechanism to PML-driven genome organization and carcinogenesis. In addition, we highlight that oncogenic oligomerization might also represent a promising target in the treatment of leukemias and solid tumors.

Characterization of a C-Terminal SUMO-Interacting Motif Present in Select PIAS-Family Proteins. Structure 2020; 28:573-585.e5.

Abstract
The human PIAS proteins are small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) E3 ligases that participate in important cellular functions. Several of these functions depend on a conserved SUMO-interacting motif (SIM) located in the central region of all PIAS proteins (SIM1). Recently, it was determined that Siz2, a yeast homolog of PIAS proteins, possesses a second SIM at its C terminus (SIM2). Sequence alignment indicates that a SIM2 is also present in PIAS1-3, but not PIAS4. Using biochemical and structural studies, we demonstrate PIAS-SIM2 binds to SUMO1, but that phosphorylation of the PIAS-SIM2 or acetylation of SUMO1 alter this interaction in a manner distinct from what is observed for the PIAS-SIM1. We also show that the PIAS-SIM2 plays a key role in formation of a UBC9-PIAS1-SUMO1 complex. These results provide insights into how post-translational modifications selectively regulate the specificity of multiple SIMs found in the PIAS proteins by exploiting the plasticity built into the SUMO-SIM binding interface.
