Abstract
Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) aberrations are observed in various cancers. In non-small cell lung cancer, genetic alterations activating HER2, mostly exon 20 insertion mutations, occur in approximately 2-4% of cases. Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd), a HER2-targeted antibody-drug conjugate has been approved as the first HER2-targeted drug for HER2-mutant lung cancer. However, some cases are not responsive to T-DXd and the primary resistant mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we assessed sensitivity to T-DXd in JFCR-007, a patient-derived HER2-mutant lung cancer cell line. Although JFCR-007 was sensitive to HER2 tyrosine kinase inhibitors, it showed resistance to T-DXd in attachment or spheroid conditions. Accordingly, we established a three-dimensional (3D) layered co-culture model of JFCR-007, where it exhibited a lumen-like structure and became sensitive to T-DXd. In addition, an in-house inhibitor library screening revealed that G007-LK, a tankyrase inhibitor, was effective when combined with T-DXd. G007-LK increased the cytotoxicity of topoisomerase-I inhibitor, DXd, a payload of T-DXd and SN-38. This combined effect was also observed in H2170, an HER2-amplified lung cancer cell line. These results suggest that the proposed 3D co-culture system may help in evaluating the efficacy of T-DXd and may recapitulate the tumor microenvironment.

Abstract
Susceptibility to metabolic syndrome (MetS) is dependent on genetics, environment, and gene-by-environment interactions, rendering the study of underlying mechanisms challenging. The majority of experiments in model organisms do not incorporate genetic variation and lack specific evaluation criteria for MetS. Here, we derived a continuous metric, the metabolic health score (MHS), based on standard clinical parameters and defined its molecular signatures in the liver and circulation. In human UK Biobank, the MHS associated with MetS status and was predictive of future disease incidence, even in individuals without MetS. Using quantitative trait locus analyses in mice, we found two MHS-associated genetic loci and replicated them in unrelated mouse populations. Through a prioritization scheme in mice and human genetic data, we identified TNKS and MCPH1 as candidates mediating differences in the MHS. Our findings provide insights into the molecular mechanisms sustaining metabolic health across species and uncover likely regulators. A record of this paper's transparent peer review process is included in the supplemental information.

Abstract
Shelterin proteins regulate genomic stability by preventing inappropriate DNA damage responses (DDRs) at telomeres. Unprotected telomeres lead to persistent DDR causing cell cycle inhibition, growth arrest, and apoptosis. Cancer cells rely on DDR to protect themselves from DNA lesions and exogenous DNA-damaging agents such as chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Therefore, targeting DDR machinery is a promising strategy to increase the sensitivity of cancer cells to existing cancer therapies. However, the success of these DDR inhibitors depends on other mutations, and over time, patients develop resistance to these therapies. This suggests the need for alternative approaches. One promising strategy is co-inhibiting shelterin proteins with DDR molecules, which would offset cellular fitness in DNA repair in a mutation-independent manner. This review highlights the associations and dependencies of the shelterin complex with the DDR proteins and discusses potential co-inhibition strategies that might improve the therapeutic potential of current inhibitors.

Abstract
Golgin tethers are known to mediate vesicular transport in the secretory pathway, whereas it is relatively unknown whether they may mediate cellular stress response within the cell. Here, we describe a cellular stress response during heat shock stress via SUMOylation of a Golgin tether, Golgin45. We found that Golgin45 is a SUMOylated Golgin via SUMO1 under steady state condition. Upon heat shock stress, the Golgin enters the nucleus by interacting with Importin-β2 and gets further modified by SUMO3. Importantly, SUMOylated Golgin45 appears to interact with PML and SUMO-deficient Golgin45 mutant functions as a dominant negative for PML-NB formation during heat shock stress, suppressing transcription of lipid metabolism genes. These results indicate that Golgin45 may play a role in heat stress response by transcriptional regulation of lipid metabolism genes in SUMOylation-dependent fashion.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribosylation) (PARylation) is a post-translational modification mediated by a subset of ADP-ribosyl transferases (ARTs). Although PARylation-inhibition based therapies are considered as an avenue to combat debilitating diseases such as cancer and myopathies, the role of this modification in physiological processes such as cell differentiation remains unclear. Here, we show that Tankyrase1 (TNKS1), a PARylating ART, plays a major role in myogenesis, a vital process known to drive muscle fiber formation and regeneration. Although all bona fide PARPs are expressed in muscle cells, experiments using siRNA-mediated knockdown or pharmacological inhibition show that TNKS1 is the enzyme responsible of catalyzing PARylation during myogenesis. Via this activity, TNKS1 controls the turnover of mRNAs encoding myogenic regulatory factors such as nucleophosmin (NPM) and myogenin. TNKS1 mediates these effects by targeting RNA-binding proteins such as Human Antigen R (HuR). HuR harbors a conserved TNKS-binding motif (TBM), the mutation of which not only prevents the association of HuR with TNKS1 and its PARylation, but also precludes HuR from regulating the turnover of NPM and myogenin mRNAs as well as from promoting myogenesis. Therefore, our data uncover a new role for TNKS1 as a key modulator of RBP-mediated post-transcriptional events required for vital processes such as myogenesis.

Abstract
The mechanism underlying anorectal malformations (ARMs)-related VACTERL (vertebral defects, anal atresia, cardiac defects, tracheo-esophageal fistula, and renal and limb abnormalities) remains unclear. Copy number variation (CNV) contributed to VACTERL pathogenicity. Here, we report a novel CNV in 8p23 and 12q23.1 identified in a case of ARMs-related VACTERL association. This 12-year-old girl presented a cloaca (urethra, vagina, and rectum opening together and sharing a single tube length), an isolated kidney, and a perpetuation of the left superior vena cava at birth. Her intelligence, growth, and development were slightly lower than those of normal children of the same age. Array comparative genomic hybridization revealed a 9.6-Mb deletion in 8p23.1-23.3 and a 0.52-Mb duplication in 12q23.1 in her genome. Furthermore, we reviewed the cases involving CNVs in patients with VACTERL, 8p23 deletion, and 12q23.1 duplication, and our case was the first displaying ARMs-related VACTERL association with CNV in 8p23 and 12q23.1. These findings enriched our understanding between VACTERL association and the mutations of 8p23 deletion and 12q23.1 duplication. IMPACT: This is a novel case of a Chinese girl with anorectal malformations (ARMs)-related VACTERL with an 8p23.1-23.3 deletion and 12q23.1 duplication. Cloaca malformation is presented with novel copy number variation in 8p23.1-23.3 deletion and 12q23.1 duplication.

Abstract
WNT/β-catenin signaling is aberrantly activated in colorectal cancer (CRC) mainly by loss-of-function mutations in adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) and is involved in tumor progression. Tankyrase inhibitors, which suppress WNT/β-catenin signaling, are currently in pre-clinical and clinical trials. However, the mechanisms of resistance to tankyrase inhibitors remain unclear. In this study, we established tankyrase inhibitor-resistant CRC cells, JC73-RK100, from APC-mutated patient-derived CRC cells. JC73-RK100 cells and several CRC cell lines were sensitive to tankyrase inhibitors at low concentrations but were resistant at high concentrations, showing an intrinsic/acquired bell-shaped dose response. Mechanistically, tankyrase inhibitors at high concentrations promoted BRD3/4-dependent E2F target gene transcription and over-activated cell cycle progression in these cells. BET inhibitors canceled the bell-shaped dose response to tankyrase inhibitors. Combination of tankyrase and BET inhibitors significantly suppressed tumor growth in a mouse xenograft model. These observations suggest that the combination of tankyrase and BET inhibitors may be a useful therapeutic approach to overcome the resistance of a subset of CRCs to tankyrase inhibitors.

Abstract
Average life expectancy has been steadily increasing in developed countries worldwide. These demographic changes are associated with an ever-growing social and economic strain to healthcare systems as well as society. The aging process typically manifests as a decline in physiological and cognitive functions, accompanied by a rise in chronic diseases. Consequently, strategies that both mitigate age-related diseases and promote healthy aging are urgently needed. Telomere attrition, characterized by the shortening of telomeres with each cell division, paradoxically serves as both a protective mechanism and a contributor to tissue degeneration and age-related ailments. Based on the essential role of telomere biology in aging, research efforts aim to develop approaches designed to counteract telomere attrition, aiming to delay or reduce age-related diseases. In this review, telomere biology and its role in aging and age-related diseases is summarized along with recent approaches to interfere with telomere shortening aiming at well- and healthy-aging as well as longevity. As aging research enters a new era, this review emphasizes telomere-targeting therapeutics, including telomerase activators and tankyrase inhibitors, while also exploring the effects of antioxidative and anti-inflammatory agents, along with indirectly related approaches like statins.

Among a growing number of discovered histone readers, the 14-3-3s, ankyrin repeat domains (ARDs), tetratricopeptide repeats (TPRs), bromodomains (BRDs), and HEAT domains are a group of domains using various mechanisms to recognize unmodified or modified histones, yet they all are composed of an α-helical fold. In this review, we compare how these readers fold to create protein domains that are very diverse in their tertiary structures, giving rise to intriguing peptide binding mechanisms resulting in vastly different footprints of their targets.

APC/PIK3CA mutations and β-catenin status predict tankyrase inhibitor sensitivity of patient-derived colorectal cancer cells. Br J Cancer 2024; 130:151-162.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aberrant WNT/β-catenin signaling drives carcinogenesis. Tankyrases poly(ADP-ribosyl)ate and destabilize AXINs, β-catenin repressors. Tankyrase inhibitors block WNT/β-catenin signaling and colorectal cancer (CRC) growth. We previously reported that 'short' APC mutations, lacking all seven β-catenin-binding 20-amino acid repeats (20-AARs), are potential predictive biomarkers for CRC cell sensitivity to tankyrase inhibitors. Meanwhile, 'Long' APC mutations, which possess more than one 20-AAR, do not predict inhibitor-resistant cells. Thus, additional biomarkers are needed to precisely predict the inhibitor sensitivity. METHODS Using 47 CRC patient-derived cells (PDCs), we examined correlations between the sensitivity to tankyrase inhibitors (G007-LK and RK-582), driver mutations, and the expressions of signaling factors. NOD.CB17-Prkdcscid/J and BALB/c-nu/nu xenograft mice were treated with RK-582. RESULTS Short APC mutant CRC cells exhibited high/intermediate sensitivities to tankyrase inhibitors in vitro and in vivo. Active β-catenin levels correlated with inhibitor sensitivity in both short and long APC mutant PDCs. PIK3CA mutations, but not KRAS/BRAF mutations, were more frequent in inhibitor-resistant PDCs. Some wild-type APC PDCs showed inhibitor sensitivity in a β-catenin-independent manner. CONCLUSIONS APC/PIK3CA mutations and β-catenin predict the sensitivity of APC-mutated CRC PDCs to tankyrase inhibitors. These observations may help inform the strategy of patient selection in future clinical trials of tankyrase inhibitors.

J Biol Chem 2023; 299:105397.

Abstract
ADP-ribose is a versatile modification that plays a critical role in diverse cellular processes. The addition of this modification is catalyzed by ADP-ribosyltransferases, among which notable poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) enzymes are intimately involved in the maintenance of genome integrity. The role of ADP-ribose modifications during DNA damage repair is of significant interest for the proper development of PARP inhibitors targeted toward the treatment of diseases caused by genomic instability. More specifically, inhibitors promoting PARP persistence on DNA lesions, termed PARP "trapping," is considered a desirable characteristic. In this review, we discuss key classes of proteins involved in ADP-ribose signaling (writers, readers, and erasers) with a focus on those involved in the maintenance of genome integrity. An overview of factors that modulate PARP1 and PARP2 persistence at sites of DNA lesions is also discussed. Finally, we clarify aspects of the PARP trapping model in light of recent studies that characterize the kinetics of PARP1 and PARP2 recruitment at sites of lesions. These findings suggest that PARP trapping could be considered as the continuous recruitment of PARP molecules to sites of lesions, rather than the physical stalling of molecules. Recent studies and novel research tools have elevated the level of understanding of ADP-ribosylation, marking a coming-of-age for this interesting modification.

Abstract
Tankyrase 1 (TNKS1) and tankyrase 2 (TNKS2) enzymes belong to the poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) family participates in process of poly-ADP-ribosylation of different target proteins which leads to ubiquitin-mediated proteasomal degradation. Tankyrases are also involved in the pathophysiology of many diseases, especially cancer. Their functions include cell cycle homeostasis (primarily in mitosis), telomere maintenance, Wnt signaling pathway regulation, and insulin signaling (particularly GLUT4 translocation). Studies have implicated that genetic changes, mutations in the tankyrase coding sequence, or up regulation and down regulation of tankyrase are reflected in the numerous disease conditions. Investigations are pursued to develop putative molecules that target tankyrase in various diseases such as cancer, obesity, osteoarthritis, fibrosis, cherubism, and diabetes, thereby providing a new therapeutic treatment option. In the present review, we described the structure and function of tankyrase along with its role in different disease conditions. Furthermore, we also presented cumulative experimental evidences of different drugs acting on tankyrase.

Abstract
An NAD+ featuring an adenosyl 4'-azido functions as a general substrate for poly-ADP-ribose polymerases. Its derived mono- and poly-ADP-ribosylated proteins can be adequately recognized by distinct ADP-ribosylation-specific readers. This molecule represents the first ribose-functionalized NAD+ with versatile activities across different ADP-ribosyltransferases and provides insight into developing new probes for ADP-ribosylation.

Abstract
Tankyrase 1 and 2 are ADP-ribosyltransferases that catalyze formation of polyADP-Ribose (PAR) onto themselves and their binding partners. Tankyrase protein levels are regulated by the PAR-binding E3 ligase RNF146, which promotes K48-linked polyubiquitylation and proteasomal degradation of tankyrase and its partners. We identified a novel interaction between tankyrase and a distinct class of E3 ligases: the RING-UIM (Ubiquitin-Interacting Motif) family. We show that RNF114 and RNF166 bind and stabilize monoubiquitylated tankyrase and promote K11-linked diubiquitylation. This action competes with RNF146-mediated degradation, leading to stabilization of tankyrase and its binding partner, Angiomotin, a cancer cell signaling protein. Moreover, we identify multiple PAR-binding E3 ligases that promote ubiquitylation of tankyrase and induce stabilization or degradation. Discovery of K11 ubiquitylation that opposes degradation, along with identification of multiple PAR-binding E3 ligases that ubiquitylate tankyrase, provide insights into mechanisms of tankyrase regulation and may offer additional uses for tankyrase inhibitors in cancer therapy.

Abstract
Resolution of cohesion between sister telomeres in human cells depends on TRF1-mediated recruitment of the polyADP-ribosyltransferase tankyrase to telomeres. In human aged cells, due to insufficient recruitment of TRF1/tankyrase to shortened telomeres, sisters remain cohered in mitosis. This persistent cohesion plays a protective role, but the mechanism by which sisters remain cohered is not well understood. Here we show that telomere repeat-containing RNA (TERRA) holds sister telomeres together through RNA-DNA hybrid (R-loop) structures. We show that a tankyrase-interacting partner, the RNA-binding protein C19orf43, is required for repression of TERRA R-loops. Persistent telomere cohesion in C19orf43-depleted cells is counteracted by RNaseH1, confirming that RNA-DNA hybrids hold sisters together. Consistent with a protective role for persistent telomere cohesion, depletion of C19orf43 in aged cells reduces DNA damage and delays replicative senescence. We propose that the inherent inability of shortened telomeres to recruit R-loop-repressing machinery permits a controlled onset of senescence.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Alphaviruses threaten public health continuously, and Getah virus (GETV) is a re-emerging alphavirus that can potentially infect humans. Approved antiviral drugs and vaccines against alphaviruses are few available, but several host antiviral factors have been reported. Here, we used GETV as a model of alphaviruses to screen for additional host factors. Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin-inducible poly(ADP ribose) polymerase was identified to inhibit GETV replication by inducing ubiquitination of the glycoprotein E2, causing its degradation by recruiting the E3 ubiquitin ligase membrane-associated RING-CH8 (MARCH8). Using GETV as a model virus, focusing on the relationship between viral structural proteins and host factors to screen antiviral host factors provides new insights for antiviral studies on alphaviruses.

Abstract
Biomolecular condensates are reversible compartments that form through a process called phase separation. Post-translational modifications like ADP-ribosylation can nucleate the formation of these condensates by accelerating the self-association of proteins. Poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) chains are remarkably transient modifications with turnover rates on the order of minutes, yet they can be required for the formation of granules in response to oxidative stress, DNA damage, and other stimuli. Moreover, accumulation of PAR is linked with adverse phase transitions in neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. In this review, we provide a primer on how PAR is synthesized and regulated, the diverse structures and chemistries of ADP-ribosylation modifications, and protein-PAR interactions. We review substantial progress in recent efforts to determine the molecular mechanism of PAR-mediated phase separation, and we further delineate how inhibitors of PAR polymerases may be effective treatments for neurodegenerative pathologies. Finally, we highlight the need for rigorous biochemical interrogation of ADP-ribosylation in vivo and in vitro to clarify the exact pathway from PARylation to condensate formation.

Abstract
Tankyrase 1 and 2 are ADP-ribosyltransferases that use NAD + as a substrate to catalyze polyADP-Ribose (PAR) onto themselves and their protein binding partners. Tankyrases have diverse cellular functions, ranging from resolution of telomere cohesion to activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. Robust and specific small molecule tankyrase inhibitors have been developed and are being investigated for cancer therapies. Tankyrase is regulated by the PAR-binding E3 ligase RNF146, which promotes K48-linked polyubiquitylation and proteasomal degradation of PARylated tankyrases and their PARylated partners. We have identified a novel interaction between tankyrase and a distinct class of E3 ligases: the RING-UIM (Ubiquitin-Interacting Motif) family. We show that RING-UIM E3 ligases (specifically RNF114 and RNF166) bind and stabilize monoubiquitylated tankyrase and promote K11-linked diubiquitylation. This action competes with RNF146-mediated K48-linked polyubiquitylation and degradation, leading to stabilization of tankyrase and to a subset of its binding partners, including Angiomotin, a protein that functions in cancer signaling pathways. Moreover, we identify multiple PAR-binding E3 ligases (in addition to RNF146) that promote ubiquitylation of tankyrase and induce stabilization or degradation. Discovery of this novel K11 ubiquitylation of tankyrase that opposes K48-mediated degradation along with identification of multiple PAR-binding E3 ligases that ubiquitylate tankyrase, provide new insights into mechanisms of tankyrase regulation and may offer new uses for tankyrase inhibitors in cancer therapy.

Abstract
Modification of proteins by ADP-ribose (PARsylation) is catalyzed by the poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) family of enzymes exemplified by PARP1, which controls chromatin organization and DNA repair. Additionally, PARsylation induces ubiquitylation and proteasomal degradation of its substrates because PARsylation creates a recognition site for E3-ubiquitin ligase. The steady-state levels of the adaptor protein SH3-domain binding protein 2 (3BP2) is negatively regulated by tankyrase (PARP5), which coordinates ubiquitylation of 3BP2 by the E3-ligase ring finger protein 146 (RNF146). 3BP2 missense mutations uncouple 3BP2 from tankyrase-mediated negative regulation and cause Cherubism, an autosomal dominant autoinflammatory disorder associated with craniofacial dysmorphia. In this review, we summarize the diverse biological processes, including bone dynamics, metabolism, and Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling controlled by tankyrase-mediated PARsylation of 3BP2, and highlight the therapeutic potential of this pathway.

Post-Transcriptional and Post-Translational Modifications in Telomerase Biogenesis and Recruitment to Telomeres. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24055027. [PMID: 36902458 PMCID: PMC10003056 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24055027] [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: 02/02/2023] [Revised: 03/02/2023] [Accepted: 03/03/2023] [Indexed: 03/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Telomere length is associated with the proliferative potential of cells. Telomerase is an enzyme that elongates telomeres throughout the entire lifespan of an organism in stem cells, germ cells, and cells of constantly renewed tissues. It is activated during cellular division, including regeneration and immune responses. The biogenesis of telomerase components and their assembly and functional localization to the telomere is a complex system regulated at multiple levels, where each step must be tuned to the cellular requirements. Any defect in the function or localization of the components of the telomerase biogenesis and functional system will affect the maintenance of telomere length, which is critical to the processes of regeneration, immune response, embryonic development, and cancer progression. An understanding of the regulatory mechanisms of telomerase biogenesis and activity is necessary for the development of approaches toward manipulating telomerase to influence these processes. The present review focuses on the molecular mechanisms involved in the major steps of telomerase regulation and the role of post-transcriptional and post-translational modifications in telomerase biogenesis and function in yeast and vertebrates.

Abstract
Human aging is a gradual and adaptive process characterized by a decrease in the homeostatic response, leading to biochemical and molecular changes that are driven by hallmarks of aging, such as oxidative stress (OxS), chronic inflammation, and telomere shortening. One of the diseases associated with the hallmarks of aging, which has a great impact on functionality and quality of life, is sarcopenia. However, the relationship between telomere length, sarcopenia, and age-related mortality has not been extensively studied. Moderate physical exercise has been shown to have a positive effect on sarcopenia, decreasing OxS and inflammation, and inducing protective effects on telomeric DNA. This results in decreased DNA strand breaks, reduced OxS and IA, and activation of repair pathways. Higher levels of physical activity are associated with an apparent increase in telomere length. This review aims to present the current state of the art of knowledge on the effect of physical exercise on telomeric maintenance and activation of repair mechanisms in sarcopenia.

Abstract
Tankyrase (TNKS) enzymes remained central biotargets to treat Wnt-driven colorectal cancers. The success of Olaparib posited the druggability of PARP family enzymes depending on their role in tumor proliferation. In this work, an MD-simulation-based comparative assessment of the protein-ligand interactions using the best-docked poses of three selected compounds (two of the designed and previously synthesized molecules obtained through molecular docking and one reported TNKS inhibitor) was performed for a 500 ns period. The PDB:ID-7KKP and 3U9H were selected for TNKS1 and TNKS2, respectively. The Molecular Mechanics Generalized Born Surface Area (MM-GBSA) based binding energy data exhibited stronger binding of compound-15 (average values of -102.92 and -104.32 kcal/mol for TNKS1 and TNKS2, respectively) as compared to compound-22 (average values of -82.99 and -85.68 kcal/mol for TNKS1 and TNKS2, respectively) and the reported compound-32 (average values of -81.89 and -74.43 kcal/mol for TNKS1 and TNKS2, respectively). Compound-15 and compound-22 exhibited comparable or superior binding to both receptors forming stable complexes when compared to that of compound-32 upon examining their MD trajectories. The key contributors were hydrophobic stacking and optimum hydrogen bonding allowing these molecules to occupy the adenosine pocket by interfacing D-loop residues. The results of bond distance analysis, radius of gyration, root mean square deviation, root mean square fluctuation, snapshots at different time intervals, LUMO-HUMO energy differences, electrostatic potential calculations, and binding free energy suggested better binding efficiency for compound-15 to TNKS enzymes. The computed physicochemical and ADMET properties of compound-15 were encouraging and could be explored further for drug development.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
The nuclear enzymes called poly(ADP-ribose)polymerases (PARPs) are known to catalyze the process of PARylation, which plays a vital role in various cellular functions. They have become important targets for the discovery of novel antitumor drugs since their inhibition can induce significant lethality in tumor cells. Therefore, researchers all over the world have been focusing on developing novel and potent PARP inhibitors for cancer therapy. Studies have shown that PARP inhibitors and other antitumor agents, such as EZH2 and EGFR inhibitors, play a synergistic role in cancer cells. The combined inhibition of PARP and the targets with synergistic effects may provide a rational strategy to improve the effectiveness of current anticancer regimens. In this Perspective, we sum up the recent advance of PARP-targeted agents, including single-target inhibitors/degraders and dual-target inhibitors/degraders, discuss the fundamental theory of developing these dual-target agents, and give insight into the corresponding structure-activity relationships of these agents.

Abstract
Propagation of human naïve pluripotent stem cells (nPSCs) relies on the inhibition of MEK/ERK signalling. However, MEK/ERK inhibition also promotes differentiation into trophectoderm (TE). Therefore, robust self-renewal requires suppression of TE fate. Tankyrase inhibition using XAV939 has been shown to stabilise human nPSCs and is implicated in TE suppression. Here, we dissect the mechanism of this effect. Tankyrase inhibition is known to block canonical Wnt/β-catenin signalling. However, we show that nPSCs depleted of β-catenin remain dependent on XAV939. Rather than inhibiting Wnt, we found that XAV939 prevents TE induction by reducing activation of YAP, a co-factor of TE-inducing TEAD transcription factors. Tankyrase inhibition stabilises angiomotin, which limits nuclear accumulation of YAP. Upon deletion of angiomotin-family members AMOT and AMOTL2, nuclear YAP increases and XAV939 fails to prevent TE induction. Expression of constitutively active YAP similarly precipitates TE differentiation. Conversely, nPSCs lacking YAP1 or its paralog TAZ (WWTR1) resist TE differentiation and self-renewal efficiently without XAV939. These findings explain the distinct requirement for tankyrase inhibition in human but not in mouse nPSCs and highlight the pivotal role of YAP activity in human naïve pluripotency and TE differentiation.

Abstract
ADP-ribosylation, a modification of proteins, nucleic acids, and metabolites, confers broad functions, including roles in stress responses elicited, for example, by DNA damage and viral infection and is involved in intra- and extracellular signaling, chromatin and transcriptional regulation, protein biosynthesis, and cell death. ADP-ribosylation is catalyzed by ADP-ribosyltransferases (ARTs), which transfer ADP-ribose from NAD+ onto substrates. The modification, which occurs as mono- or poly-ADP-ribosylation, is reversible due to the action of different ADP-ribosylhydrolases. Importantly, inhibitors of ARTs are approved or are being developed for clinical use. Moreover, ADP-ribosylhydrolases are being assessed as therapeutic targets, foremost as antiviral drugs and for oncological indications. Due to the development of novel reagents and major technological advances that allow the study of ADP-ribosylation in unprecedented detail, an increasing number of cellular processes and pathways are being identified that are regulated by ADP-ribosylation. In addition, characterization of biochemical and structural aspects of the ARTs and their catalytic activities have expanded our understanding of this protein family. This increased knowledge requires that a common nomenclature be used to describe the relevant enzymes. Therefore, in this viewpoint, we propose an updated and broadly supported nomenclature for mammalian ARTs that will facilitate future discussions when addressing the biochemistry and biology of ADP-ribosylation. This is combined with a brief description of the main functions of mammalian ARTs to illustrate the increasing diversity of mono- and poly-ADP-ribose mediated cellular processes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Telomere length, which is related to chronic diseases and premature mortality, is influenced by dietary factors. Zinc is known as a dietary antioxidant micronutrient, however, its impact on telomere length remains unclear. OBJECTIVE We aimed to examine the potential effect of dietary zinc intake on telomere length among middle-aged and older individuals in the US. MATERIALS AND METHODS Our study included 3,793 US participants aged 45 years and older from the 1999 to 2002 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). 24-h dietary recall interviews were employed to evaluate zinc consumption. Leukocyte telomere length was assessed by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). We adopted generalized linear models to investigate the effect of dietary zinc intake on telomere length, and subgroup analyses were further applied. We further evaluated the dose-response relationship using restricted cubic spline analysis. RESULTS Among the 3,793 participants, the average telomere length was 0.926 ± 0.205 (T/S ratio) or 5509.5 ± 494.9 (bp). After adjusting for major confounders, every 5 mg increment in dietary zinc consumption was related to 0.64% (95% CI: 0.17%, 1.10%) longer telomere length. In the subgroup analyses, significant relationships were found in females (Percentage change: 1.11%; 95% CI: 0.48%, 1.75%), obese (Percentage change: 0.88%; 95% CI: 0.26%, 1.50%), and low energy intake individuals (Percentage change: 0.99%; 95% CI: 0.51%, 1.46%). Additionally, we revealed a positive linear relationship between dietary zinc intake and telomere length (P for non-linearity = 0.636). CONCLUSION Our study revealed that elevated dietary zinc intake was significantly related to longer telomere length among adults aged 45 years and older in the US. And the association was more pronounced in females, obese, and low energy intake individuals.

Abstract
Tankyrases are poly-ADP-ribosyltransferases that regulate many crucial and diverse cellular processes in humans such as Wnt signaling, telomere homeostasis, mitotic spindle formation and glucose metabolism. While tankyrases are present in most animals, functional differences across species may exist. In this work, we confirm the widespread distribution of tankyrases throughout the branches of multicellular animal life and identify the single-celled choanoflagellates as earliest origin of tankyrases. We further show that the sequences and structural aspects of TNKSs are well-conserved even between distantly related species. We also experimentally characterized an anciently diverged tankyrase homolog from the sponge Amphimedon queenslandica and show that the basic functional aspects, such as poly-ADP-ribosylation activity and interaction with the canonical tankyrase binding peptide motif, are conserved. Conversely, the presence of tankyrase binding motifs in orthologs of confirmed interaction partners varies greatly between species, indicating that tankyrases may have different sets of interaction partners depending on the animal lineage. Overall, our analysis suggests a remarkable degree of conservation for tankyrases, and that their regulatory functions in cells have likely changed considerably throughout evolution.

Abstract
Protein targets of polyADP-ribosylation undergo covalent modification with high-molecular-weight, branched poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) of lengths up to 200 or more ADP-ribose residues derived from NAD+. PAR polymerase 1 (PARP1) is the most abundant and well-characterized enzyme involved in PAR biosynthesis. Extensive studies have been carried out to determine how polyADP-ribosylation (PARylation) regulates cell proliferation during cell cycle, with conflicting conclusions. Since significant activation of PARP1 occurs during cell lysis in vitro, we changed the standard method for cell lysis, and using our sensitive ELISA system, quantified without addition of a PAR glycohydrolase inhibitor and clarified that the PAR level is significantly higher in S phase than that in G1. Under normal condition in the absence of exogenous DNA-damaging agent, PAR turns over with a half-life of <40 s; consistent with significant decrease of NAD+ levels in S phase, which is rescued by PARP inhibitors, in line with the observed rapid turnover of PAR. PARP inhibitors delayed cell cycle in S phase and decreased cell proliferation. Our results underscore the importance of a suitable assay system to measure rapid PAR chain dynamics in living cells and aid our understanding of the function of PARylation during the cell cycle.

Unravelling the Structural Mechanism of Action of 5-methyl-5-[4-(4-oxo-3H-quinazolin-2-yl)phenyl]imidazolidine-2,4-dione in Dual-Targeting Tankyrase 1 and 2: A Novel Avenue in Cancer Therapy. Cell Biochem Biophys 2022; 80:505-518. [PMID: 35637423 DOI: 10.1007/s12013-022-01076-2] [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: 03/16/2022] [Accepted: 05/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/03/2022]
Abstract
Tankyrase (TNKS) belonging to the poly(ADPribose) polymerase family, are known for their multi-functioning capabilities, and play an essential role in the Wnt β-catenin pathway and various other cellular processes. Although showing inhibitory potential at a nanomolar level, the structural dual-inhibitory mechanism of the novel TNKS inhibitor, 5-methyl-5-[4-(4-oxo-3H-quinazolin-2-yl)phenyl]imidazolidine-2,4-dione, remains unexplored. By employing advanced molecular modeling, this study provides these insights. Results of sequence alignments of binding site residues identified conserved residues; GLY1185 and ILE1224 in TNKS-1 and PHE1035 and PRO1034 in TNKS-2 as crucial mediators of the dual binding mechanism of 5-methyl-5-[4-(4-oxo-3H-quinazolin-2-yl)phenyl]imidazolidine-2,4-dione, corroborated by high per-residue energy contributions and consistent high-affinity interactions of these residues. Estimation of the binding free energy of 5-methyl-5-[4-(4-oxo-3H-quinazolin-2-yl)phenyl]imidazolidine-2,4-dione showed estimated total energy of -43.88 kcal/mol and -30.79 kcal/mol towards TNKS-1 and 2, respectively, indicating favorable analogous dual binding as previously reported. Assessment of the conformational dynamics of TNKS-1 and 2 upon the binding of 5-methyl-5-[4-(4-oxo-3H-quinazolin-2-yl)phenyl]imidazolidine-2,4-dione revealed similar structural changes characterized by increased flexibility and solvent assessible surface area of the residues inferring an analogous structural binding mechanism. Insights from this study show that peculiar, conserved residues are the driving force behind the dual inhibitory mechanism of 5-methyl-5-[4-(4-oxo-3H-quinazolin-2-yl)phenyl]imidazolidine-2,4-dione and could aid in the design of novel dual inhibitors of TNKS-1 and 2 with improved therapeutic properties.

Abstract
The ADP-ribose transferase (ART) family comprises 17 enzymes that catalyze mono- or poly-ADP-ribosylation, a post-translational modification of proteins. Present in all subcellular compartments, ARTs are implicated in a growing number of biological processes including DNA repair, replication, transcription regulation, intra- and extra-cellular signaling, viral infection and cell death. Five members of the family, PARP1, PARP2, PARP3, tankyrase 1 and tankyrase 2 are mainly described for their crucial functions in the maintenance of genome stability. It is well established that the most describedrole of PARP1, 2 and 3 is the repair of DNA lesions while tankyrases 1 and 2 are crucial for maintaining the integrity of telomeres. Telomeres, nucleoprotein complexes located at the ends of eukaryotic chromosomes, utilize their unique structure and associated set of proteins to orchestrate the mechanisms necessary for their own protection and replication. While the functions of tankyrases 1 and 2 at telomeres are well known, several studies have also brought PARP1, 2 and 3 to the forefront of telomere protection. The singular quality of the telomeric environment has highlighted protein interactions and molecular pathways distinct from those described throughout the genome. The aim of this review is to provide an overview of the current knowledge on the multiple roles of PARP1, PARP2, PARP3, tankyrase 1 and tankyrase 2 in the maintenance and preservation of telomere integrity.

Abstract
Tankyrases are multifunctional poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerases that regulate diverse biological processes including telomere maintenance and cellular signaling. These processes are often implicated in a number of human diseases, with cancer being the most prevalent example. Accordingly, tankyrase inhibitors have gained increasing attention as potential therapeutics. Since the discovery of XAV939 and IWR-1 as the first tankyrase inhibitors over two decades ago, tankyrase-targeted drug discovery has made significant progress. This review starts with an introduction of tankyrases, with emphasis placed on their cancer-related functions. Small-molecule inhibitors of tankyrases are subsequently delineated based on their distinct modes of binding to the enzymes. In addition to inhibitors that compete with oxidized nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) for binding to the catalytic domain of tankyrases, non-NAD+-competitive inhibitors are detailed. This is followed by a description of three clinically trialled tankyrase inhibitors. To conclude, some of challenges and prospects in developing tankyrase-targeted cancer therapies are discussed.

Abstract
Tankyrases are ADP-ribosylating enzymes that regulate many physiological processes in the cell and are considered promising drug targets for cancer and fibrotic diseases. The catalytic ADP-ribosyltransferase domain of tankyrases contains a unique zinc-binding motif of unknown function. Recently, this motif was suggested to be involved in the catalytic activity of tankyrases. In this work, we set out to study the effect of the zinc-binding motif on the activity, stability and structure of human tankyrases. We generated mutants of human tankyrase (TNKS) 1 and TNKS2, abolishing the zinc-binding capabilities, and characterized the proteins biochemically and biophysically in vitro. We further generated a crystal structure of TNKS2, in which the zinc ion was oxidatively removed. Our work shows that the zinc-binding motif in tankyrases is a crucial structural element which is particularly important for the structural integrity of the acceptor site. While mutation of the motif rendered TNKS1 inactive, probably due to introduction of major structural defects, the TNKS2 mutant remained active and displayed an altered activity profile compared to the wild-type.

Abstract
Anti-angiogenic therapies, such as anti-VEGF antibodies (AVAs), have shown promise in clinical settings. However, adaptive resistance to such therapies occurs frequently. We use orthotopic ovarian cancer models with AVA-adaptive resistance to investigate the underlying mechanisms. Genomic profiling of AVA-resistant tumors guides us to endothelial p130cas. We find that bevacizumab induces cleavage of VEGFR2 in endothelial cells by caspase-10 and that VEGFR2 fragments internalize into the nucleus and autophagosomes. Nuclear VEGFR2 and p130cas fragments, together with TNKS1BP1 (tankyrase-1-binding protein), initiate endothelial cell death. Blockade of autophagy in AVA-resistant endothelial cells retains VEGFR2 at the membrane with bevacizumab treatment. Targeting host p130cas with RGD (Arg-Gly-Asp)-tagged nanoparticles or genomic ablation of vascular p130cas in p130casflox/floxTie2Cre mice significantly extends the survival of mice with AVA-resistant ovarian tumors. Higher vascular p130cas is associated with shorter survival of individuals with ovarian cancer. Our findings identify opportunities for new strategies to overcome adaptive resistance to AVA therapy.

Abstract
The gammaherpesviruses, include the Epstein–Barr virus, Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus, and murine gammaherpesvirus 68. They establish latent infection in the B lymphocytes and are associated with various lymphoproliferative diseases and tumors. The poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP1), also called ADP-ribosyltransferase diphtheria-toxin-like 1 (ARTD1) is a nuclear enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of the ADP-ribose moiety to its target proteins and participates in important cellular activities, such as the DNA-damage response, cell death, transcription, chromatin remodeling, and inflammation. In gammaherpesvirus infection, PARP1 acts as a key regulator of the virus life cycle: lytic replication and latency. These viruses also develop various strategies to regulate PARP1, facilitating their replication. This review summarizes the roles of PARP1 in the viral life cycle as well as the viral modulation of host PARP1 activity and discusses the implications. Understanding the interactions between the PARP1 and oncogenic gammaherpesviruses may lead to the identification of effective therapeutic targets for the associated diseases.

Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic reminds us that in spite of the scientific progress in the past century, there is a lack of general antiviral strategies. In analogy to broad-spectrum antibiotics as antibacterial agents, developing broad spectrum antiviral agents would buy us time for the development of vaccines and treatments for future viral infections. In addition to targeting viral factors, a possible strategy is to understand host immune defense mechanisms and develop methods to boost the antiviral immune response. Here we summarize the role of NAD+-consuming enzymes in the immune defense against viral infections, with the hope that a better understanding of this process could help to develop better antiviral therapeutics targeting these enzymes. These NAD+-consuming enzymes include PARPs, sirtuins, CD38, and SARM1. Among these, the antiviral function of PARPs is particularly important and will be a focus of this review. Interestingly, NAD+ biosynthetic enzymes are also implicated in immune responses. In addition, many viruses, including SARS-CoV-2 contain a macrodomain-containing protein (NSP3 in SARS-CoV-2), which serves to counteract the antiviral function of host PARPs. Therefore, NAD+ and NAD+-consuming enzymes play crucial roles in immune responses against viral infections and detailed mechanistic understandings in the future will likely facilitate the development of general antiviral strategies.

Tankyrase-1-mediated degradation of Golgin45 regulates glycosyltransferase trafficking and protein glycosylation in Rab2-GTP-dependent manner. Commun Biol 2021; 4:1370.

Abstract
Altered glycosylation plays an important role during development and is also a hallmark of increased tumorigenicity and metastatic potentials of several cancers. We report here that Tankyrase-1 (TNKS1) controls protein glycosylation by Poly-ADP-ribosylation (PARylation) of a Golgi structural protein, Golgin45, at the Golgi. TNKS1 is a Golgi-localized peripheral membrane protein that plays various roles throughout the cell, ranging from telomere maintenance to Glut4 trafficking. Our study indicates that TNKS1 localization to the Golgi apparatus is mediated by Golgin45. TNKS1-dependent control of Golgin45 protein stability influences protein glycosylation, as shown by Glycomic analysis. Further, FRAP experiments indicated that Golgin45 protein level modulates Golgi glycosyltransferease trafficking in Rab2-GTP-dependent manner. Taken together, these results suggest that TNKS1-dependent regulation of Golgin45 may provide a molecular underpinning for altered glycosylation at the Golgi during development or oncogenic transformation.

Abstract
In this study, Myler et al. investigated the evolutionary origins of shelterin complex, which is comprised of TRF1, TRF2, Rap1, TIN2, TPP1, and POT1; blocks the DNA damage response at chromosome ends; and interacts with telomerase and the CST complex to regulate telomere length. They describe the evolution of metazoan shelterin, showing that TRF1 emerged in vertebrates upon duplication of a TRF2-like ancestor, and providing insights into the biology of shelterin and its evolution from ancestral telomeric DNA-binding proteins. The mammalian telomeric shelterin complex—comprised of TRF1, TRF2, Rap1, TIN2, TPP1, and POT1—blocks the DNA damage response at chromosome ends and interacts with telomerase and the CST complex to regulate telomere length. The evolutionary origins of shelterin are unclear, partly because unicellular organisms have distinct telomeric proteins. Here, we describe the evolution of metazoan shelterin, showing that TRF1 emerged in vertebrates upon duplication of a TRF2-like ancestor. TRF1 and TRF2 diverged rapidly during vertebrate evolution through the acquisition of new domains and interacting factors. Vertebrate shelterin is also distinguished by the presence of an HJRL domain in the split C-terminal OB fold of POT1, whereas invertebrate POT1s carry inserts of variable nature. Importantly, the data reveal that, apart from the primate and rodent POT1 orthologs, all metazoan POT1s are predicted to have a fourth OB fold at their N termini. Therefore, we propose that POT1 arose from a four-OB-fold ancestor, most likely an RPA70-like protein. This analysis provides insights into the biology of shelterin and its evolution from ancestral telomeric DNA-binding proteins.

Abstract
In the present review, an attempt has been made to summarize the development of various
Tankyrase inhibitors focussing on Wnt/beta-Catenin pathways along with other cancer targets.
The last decade witnessed a plethora of research related to the role of various genetic and epigenetic
events that are responsible for the progression of multistage cancers. As a result, the discovery of
various signalling pathways responsible for the development of different types of cancers has resulted
in the development of molecularly targeted anticancer agents. Out of the many signalling pathways,
the Wnt/beta-Catenin pathways have attracted the attention of many research groups owing
to their involvement in cell proliferation, role in apoptosis induction, cellular differentiation and also
cell migration. The abnormal activation of this pathways has been documented in a variety of tumour
cells. Another crucial factor that makes this pathway attractive to the researches is its direct
involvement with poly ADP ribose polymerases. Tankyrases are poly ADP (Adenosine Diphosphate)
ribose polymerases that have the capacity to inhibit Wnt/beta-Catenin pathways and become
an attractive target for anticancer drugs.

Abstract
TIN2 is a core component of the shelterin complex linking double-stranded telomeric DNA-binding proteins (TRF1 and TRF2) and single-strand overhang-binding proteins (TPP1-POT1). In vivo, the large majority of TRF1 and TRF2 exist in complexes containing TIN2 but lacking TPP1/POT1; however, the role of TRF1-TIN2 interactions in mediating interactions with telomeric DNA is unclear. Here, we investigated DNA molecular structures promoted by TRF1-TIN2 interaction using atomic force microscopy (AFM), total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy (TIRFM), and the DNA tightrope assay. We demonstrate that the short (TIN2S) and long (TIN2L) isoforms of TIN2 facilitate TRF1-mediated DNA compaction (cis-interactions) and DNA-DNA bridging (trans-interactions) in a telomeric sequence- and length-dependent manner. On the short telomeric DNA substrate (six TTAGGG repeats), the majority of TRF1-mediated telomeric DNA-DNA bridging events are transient with a lifetime of ~1.95 s. On longer DNA substrates (270 TTAGGG repeats), TIN2 forms multiprotein complexes with TRF1 and stabilizes TRF1-mediated DNA-DNA bridging events that last on the order of minutes. Preincubation of TRF1 with its regulator protein Tankyrase 1 and the cofactor NAD+ significantly reduced TRF1-TIN2 mediated DNA-DNA bridging, whereas TIN2 protected the disassembly of TRF1-TIN2 mediated DNA-DNA bridging upon Tankyrase 1 addition. Furthermore, we showed that TPP1 inhibits TRF1-TIN2L-mediated DNA-DNA bridging. Our study, together with previous findings, supports a molecular model in which protein assemblies at telomeres are heterogeneous with distinct subcomplexes and full shelterin complexes playing distinct roles in telomere protection and elongation.

Miglani M, Pasha Q, Gupta A, Priyadarshini A, Pati Pandey R, Vibhuti A. Seeding drug discovery: Telomeric tankyrase as a pharmacological target for the pathophysiology of high-altitude hypoxia. Drug Discov Today 2021; 26:2774-2781. [PMID: 34302973 DOI: 10.1016/j.drudis.2021.07.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/24/2021] [Revised: 06/01/2021] [Accepted: 07/12/2021] [Indexed: 12/26/2022]
Abstract
Cellular exposure to extreme environments leads to the expression of multiple proteins that participate in pathophysiological manifestations. Hypobaric hypoxia at high altitude (HA) generates reactive oxygen species (ROS) that can damage telomeres. Tankyrase (TNKS) belongs to multiple telomeric protein complexes and is actively involved in DNA damage repair. Although published research on TNKS indicates its possible role in cancer and other hypoxic diseases, its role in HA sicknesses remains elusive. Understanding the roles of telomeres, telomerase, and TNKS could ameliorate physiological issues experienced at HA. In addition, telomeric TNKS could be a potential biomarker in hypoxia-induced sicknesses or acclimatization. Thus, a new research avenue on TNKS linked to HA sickness might lead to the discovery of drugs for hypobaric hypoxia.

Discovery of a Novel Triazolopyridine Derivative as a Tankyrase Inhibitor. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22147330. [PMID: 34298950 PMCID: PMC8303674 DOI: 10.3390/ijms22147330] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2021] [Revised: 07/04/2021] [Accepted: 07/06/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
More than 80% of colorectal cancer patients have adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) mutations, which induce abnormal WNT/β-catenin activation. Tankyrase (TNKS) mediates the release of active β-catenin, which occurs regardless of the ligand that translocates into the nucleus by AXIN degradation via the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. Therefore, TNKS inhibition has emerged as an attractive strategy for cancer therapy. In this study, we identified pyridine derivatives by evaluating in vitro TNKS enzyme activity and investigated N-([1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyridin-3-yl)-1-(2-cyanophenyl)piperidine-4-carboxamide (TI-12403) as a novel TNKS inhibitor. TI-12403 stabilized AXIN2, reduced active β-catenin, and downregulated β-catenin target genes in COLO320DM and DLD-1 cells. The antitumor activities of TI-12403 were confirmed by the viability of the colorectal cancer cells and its lack of visible toxicity in DLD-1 xenograft mouse model. In addition, combined 5-FU and TI-12403 treatment synergistically inhibited proliferation to a greater extent than that in a single drug treatment. Our observations suggest that TI-12403, a novel selective TNKS1 inhibitor, may be a suitable compound for anticancer drug development.

Abstract
Small-molecule tankyrase 1 and tankyrase 2 (TNKS1/2) inhibitors are effective antitumor agents in selected tumor cell lines and mouse models. Here, we characterized the response signatures and the in-depth mechanisms for the antiproliferative effect of tankyrase inhibition (TNKSi). The TNKS1/2-specific inhibitor G007-LK was used to screen 537 human tumor cell lines and a panel of particularly TNKSi-sensitive tumor cell lines was identified. Transcriptome, proteome, and bioinformatic analyses revealed the overall TNKSi-induced response signatures in the selected panel. TNKSi-mediated inhibition of wingless-type mammary tumor virus integration site/β-catenin, yes-associated protein 1 (YAP), and phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase/AKT signaling was validated and correlated with lost expression of the key oncogene MYC and impaired cell growth. Moreover, we show that TNKSi induces accumulation of TNKS1/2-containing β-catenin degradasomes functioning as core complexes interacting with YAP and angiomotin proteins during attenuation of YAP signaling. These findings provide a contextual and mechanistic framework for using TNKSi in anticancer treatment that warrants further comprehensive preclinical and clinical evaluations. TNKSi-responding tumor cell lines were identified TNKSi targets WNT/β-catenin, YAP, and PI3K/AKT signaling Reduced MYC expression leads to impaired tumor cell growth

Abstract
Background Most congenital heart defects (CHDs) result from complex interactions among genetic susceptibilities, epigenetic modifications, and maternal environmental exposures. Characterizing the complex relationship between genetic, epigenetic, and transcriptomic variation will enhance our understanding of pathogenesis in this important type of congenital disorder. We investigated cis-acting effects of genetic single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on local DNA methylation patterns within 83 cardiac tissue samples and prioritized their contributions to CHD risk by leveraging results of CHD genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and their effects on cardiac gene expression. Results We identified 13,901 potential methylation quantitative trait loci (mQTLs) with a false discovery threshold of 5%. Further co-localization analyses and Mendelian randomization indicated that genetic variants near the HLA-DRB6 gene on chromosome 6 may contribute to CHD risk by regulating the methylation status of nearby CpG sites. Additional SNPs in genomic regions on chromosome 10 (TNKS2-AS1 gene) and chromosome 14 (LINC01629 gene) may simultaneously influence epigenetic and transcriptomic variations within cardiac tissues. Conclusions Our results support the hypothesis that genetic variants may influence the risk of CHDs through regulating the changes of DNA methylation and gene expression. Our results can serve as an important source of information that can be integrated with other genetic studies of heart diseases, especially CHDs.

Abstract
Simple Summary The gene encoding for the epigenetic regulator ATRX is gaining a prominent position among the most important oncosuppressive genes of the human genome. ATRX gene somatic mutations are found across a number of diverse cancer types, suggesting its relevance in tumor induction and progression. In the present review, the multiple activities of ATRX protein are described in the light of the most recent literature available highlighting its multifaceted role in the caretaking of the human genome. Abstract ATRX gene codifies for a protein member of the SWI-SNF family and was cloned for the first time over 25 years ago as the gene responsible for a rare developmental disorder characterized by α-thalassemia and intellectual disability called Alpha Thalassemia/mental Retardation syndrome X-linked (ATRX) syndrome. Since its discovery as a helicase involved in alpha-globin gene transcriptional regulation, our understanding of the multiple roles played by the ATRX protein increased continuously, leading to the recognition of this multifaceted protein as a central “caretaker” of the human genome involved in cancer suppression. In this review, we report recent advances in the comprehension of the ATRX manifold functions that encompass heterochromatin epigenetic regulation and maintenance, telomere function, replicative stress response, genome stability, and the suppression of endogenous transposable elements and exogenous viral genomes.

Abstract
Tankyrase 1 (TNKS1) and tankyrase 2 (TNKS2) are two homologous proteins that are gaining increasing importance due to their implication in multiple pathways and diseases such as cancer. TNKS1/2 interact with a large variety of substrates through the ankyrin (ANK) domain, which recognizes a sequence present in all the substrates of tankyrase, called Tankyrase Binding Motif (TBM). One of the main functions of tankyrases is the regulation of protein stability through the process of PARylation-dependent ubiquitination (PARdU). Nonetheless, there are other functions less studied that are also essential in order to understand the role of tankyrases in many pathways. In this review, we concentrate in different tankyrase substrates and we analyze in depth the biological consequences derived of their interaction with TNKS1/2. We also examine the concept of both canonical and non-canonical TBMs and finally, we focus on the information about the role of TNKS1/2 in different tumor context, along with the benefits and limitations of the current TNKS inhibitors targeting the catalytic PARP domain and the novel strategies to develop inhibitors against the ankyrin domain. Available data indicates the need for further deepening in the knowledge of tankyrases to elucidate and improve the current view of the role of these PARP family members and get inhibitors with a better therapeutic and safety profile.

Abstract
Spatiotemporal control of Wnt/β-catenin signaling is critical for organism development and homeostasis. The poly-(ADP)-ribose polymerase Tankyrase (TNKS1) promotes Wnt/β-catenin signaling through PARylation-mediated degradation of AXIN1, a component of the β-catenin destruction complex. Although Wnt/β-catenin is a niche-restricted signaling program, tissue-specific factors that regulate TNKS1 are not known. Here, we report prostate-associated gene 4 (PAGE4) as a tissue-specific TNKS1 inhibitor that robustly represses canonical Wnt/β-catenin signaling in human cells, zebrafish, and mice. Structural and biochemical studies reveal that PAGE4 acts as an optimal substrate decoy that potently hijacks substrate binding sites on TNKS1 to prevent AXIN1 PARylation and degradation. Consistently, transgenic expression of PAGE4 in mice phenocopies TNKS1 knockout. Physiologically, PAGE4 is selectively expressed in stromal prostate fibroblasts and functions to establish a proper Wnt/β-catenin signaling niche through suppression of autocrine signaling. Our findings reveal a non-canonical mechanism for TNKS1 inhibition that functions to establish tissue-specific control of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

The 17-member poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase enzyme family, also known as the ADP-ribosyl transferase diphtheria toxin-like (ARTD) enzyme family, contains DNA damage-responsive and nonresponsive members. Only PARP1, 2, 5a, and 5b are capable of modifying their targets with poly ADP-ribose (PAR) polymers; the other PARP family members function as mono-ADP-ribosyl transferases. In the last decade, PARP1 has taken center stage in oncology treatments. New PARP inhibitors (PARPi) have been introduced for the targeted treatment of breast cancer 1 or 2 (BRCA1/2)-deficient ovarian and breast cancers, and this novel therapy represents the prototype of the synthetic lethality paradigm. Much less attention has been paid to other PARPs and their potential roles in cancer biology. In this review, we summarize the roles played by all PARP enzyme family members in six intrinsic hallmarks of cancer: uncontrolled proliferation, evasion of growth suppressors, cell death resistance, genome instability, reprogrammed energy metabolism, and escape from replicative senescence. In a companion paper, we will discuss the roles of PARP enzymes in cancer hallmarks related to cancer-host interactions, including angiogenesis, invasion and metastasis, evasion of the anticancer immune response, and tumor-promoting inflammation. While PARP1 is clearly involved in all ten cancer hallmarks, an increasing body of evidence supports the role of other PARPs in modifying these cancer hallmarks (e.g., PARP5a and 5b in replicative immortality and PARP2 in cancer metabolism). We also highlight controversies, open questions, and discuss prospects of recent developments related to the wide range of roles played by PARPs in cancer biology. Some of the summarized findings may explain resistance to PARPi therapy or highlight novel biological roles of PARPs that can be therapeutically exploited in novel anticancer treatment paradigms.
