Exp Cell Res 2022; 421:113404. [PMID: 36341908 DOI: 10.1016/j.yexcr.2022.113404] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/09/2022] [Revised: 10/22/2022] [Accepted: 10/23/2022] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
14-3-3 proteins are ubiquitous adapters combining with phosphorylated serine/threonine motifs to regulate multiple cellular processes. As a negative regulator, 14-3-3 proteins could sequester the phosphorylated YAP1 in cytoplasm to inhibit its activity. In this study, we identified the K50 acetylation (K50ac) of 14-3-3ε protein and investigated its roles and mechanism in cholangiocarcinoma progression. The NAD (+)-dependent protein deacetylases inhibitor, NAM treatment significantly up-regulated the K50ac of 14-3-3ε. K50R mutation resulted in the decrease of K50ac of 14-3-3ε. The K50ac of 14-3-3ε was reversibly mediated by PCAF acetyltransferase and sirt1 deacetylases. K50ac had no obvious effect on the protein stability of 14-3-3ε, but inhibited the combination of 14-3-3ε with phosphorylated YAP1, which resulted in the activation of YAP1 in cholangiocarcinoma. K50R significantly decreased cholangiocarcinoma cell proliferation in vitro and the growth of tumor xenograft in vivo compared with WT (wild type) 14-3-3ε. The level of K50ac were higher in cholangiocarcinoma tissues accompanied by the accumulation of YAP1 in nuclear than para-carcinoma tissues. Our study revealed the underlying mechanism of K50ac of 14-3-3ε and its roles in cholangiocarcinoma, providing a potential targeting for cholangiocarcinoma therapy.

Abstract
The post-translational modification of proteins with ubiquitin plays a central role in nearly all aspects of eukaryotic biology. Historically, studies have focused on the conjugation of ubiquitin to lysine residues in substrates, but it is now clear that ubiquitylation can also occur on cysteine, serine, and threonine residues, as well as on the N-terminal amino group of proteins. Paradigm-shifting reports of non-proteinaceous substrates have further extended the reach of ubiquitylation beyond the proteome to include intracellular lipids and sugars. Additionally, results from bacteria have revealed novel ways to ubiquitylate (and deubiquitylate) substrates without the need for any of the enzymatic components of the canonical ubiquitylation cascade. Focusing mainly upon recent findings, this review aims to outline the current understanding of non-lysine ubiquitylation and speculate upon the molecular mechanisms and physiological importance of this non-canonical modification.
