Abstract
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) is the primary epidemic strain in China. Its genome contains two regulatory genes (tat and rev), three structural genes (gag, pol, and env), and four accessory genes (nef, vpr, vpu, and vif). Long terminal repeats (LTRs) in thegenome regulate integration, duplication, and expression of viral gene. The permissibility of HIV-1 infection hinges on the host cell cycle status. HIV-1 replicates by exploiting various cellular processes via upregulation or downregulation of specific cellular proteins that also control viral pathogenesis. For example, HIV-1 regulates the life cycle of p53, which in turn contributes significantly to HIV-1 pathogenesis. In this article, we review the interaction between HIV-1-associated factors and p53, providing information on their regulatory and molecular mechanisms, hinting possible directions for further research.

Negative regulation of floral transition in Arabidopsis by HOS15-PWR-HDA9 complex. FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2023; 13:1105988. [PMID: 36684790 PMCID: PMC9853073 DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2022.1105988] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2022] [Accepted: 12/16/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
Arabidopsis HOS15/PWR/HDA9 repressor complex, which is similar to the TBL1/NcoR1/HDAC complex in animals, plays a well-known role in epigenetic regulation. PWR and HDA9 have been reported to interact with each other and modulate the flowering time by repressing AGL19 expression, whereas HOS15 and HDA9, together with the photoperiodic evening complex, regulate flowering time through repression of GI transcription. However, the role of the HOS15/PWR/HDA9 core repressor complex as a functional unit in the regulation of flowering time is yet to be explored. In this study, we reported that the loss-of-function hos15-2/pwr/hda9 triple mutant accumulates higher transcript levels of AGL19 and exhibits an early flowering phenotype similar to those of hos15, pwr, and hda9 single mutants. Interestingly, the accumulation of HOS15 in the nucleus was drastically reduced in pwr and hda9 mutants. As a result, HOS15 could not perform its role in histone deacetylation or interaction with H3 in the nucleus. Furthermore, HOS15 is also associated with the same region of the AGL19 promoter known for PWR-HDA9 binding. The acetylation level of the AGL19 promoter was increased in the hos15-2 mutant, similar to the pwr and hda9 mutants. Therefore, our findings reveal that the HOS15/PWR/HDA9 repressor complex deacetylates the promoter region of AGL19, thereby negatively regulating AGL19 transcription, which leads to early flowering in Arabidopsis.

Abstract
Over the past 2 decades, the adaptor protein transducin β-like 1 (TBL1X) and its homolog TBL1XR1 have been shown to be upregulated in solid tumors and hematologic malignancies, and their overexpression is associated with poor clinical outcomes. Moreover, dysregulation of the TBL1 family of proteins has been implicated as a key component of oncogenic prosurvival signaling, cancer progression, and metastasis. Herein, we discuss how TBL1X and TBL1XR1 are required for the regulation of major transcriptional programs through the silencing mediator for tetanoid and thyroid hormone receptor (SMRT)/nuclear receptor corepressor (NCOR)/ B cell lymphoma 6 (BCL6) complex, Wnt/β catenin, and NF-κB signaling. We outline the utilization of tegavivint (Iterion Therapeutics), a first-in-class small molecule targeting the N-terminus domain of TBL1, as a novel therapeutic strategy in preclinical models of cancer and clinically. Although most published work has focused on the transcriptional role of TBL1X, we recently showed that in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), the most common lymphoma subtype, genetic knockdown of TBL1X and treatment with tegavivint resulted in decreased expression of critical (onco)-proteins in a posttranscriptional/β-catenin-independent manner by promoting their proteasomal degradation through a Skp1/Cul1/F-box (SCF)/TBL1X supercomplex and potentially through the regulation of protein synthesis. However, given that TBL1X controls multiple oncogenic signaling pathways in cancer, treatment with tegavivint may ultimately result in drug resistance, providing the rationale for combination strategies. Although many questions related to TBL1X function remain to be answered in lymphoma and other diseases, these data provide a growing body of evidence that TBL1X is a promising therapeutic target in oncology.

Abstract
Some forms of acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) share typical morphological and immunophenotypic features of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) but are negative for promyelocytic leukemia-retinoic acid receptor alpha (PML-RARA) fusion. These forms of AML are known as variant APL. Some variants of APL present with retinoic acid receptor beta (RARB) fused or rearranged with partner genes. RARB-positive APL is very rare, resistant to all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), and associated with poor prognosis. Here, we reported one case with TBL1XR1-RARB positive APL, featured by early onset and no apparent bleeding tendency or coagulation dysfunction. This patient was resistant to ATRA and arsenic trioxide (ATO), but was good responsive to conventional chemotherapy for AML. The case report was followed by a literature review.

Abstract
The corepressor TOPLESS (TPL) and its paralogs coordinately regulate a large number of genes critical to plant development and immunity. As in many members of the larger pan-eukaryotic Tup1/TLE/Groucho corepressor family, TPL contains a Lis1 Homology domain (LisH), whose function is not well understood. We have previously found that the LisH in TPL-and specifically the N-terminal 18 amino acid alpha-helical region (TPL-H1)-can act as an autonomous repression domain. We hypothesized that homologous domains across diverse LisH-containing proteins could share the same function. To test that hypothesis, we built a library of H1s that broadly sampled the sequence and evolutionary space of LisH domains, and tested their activity in a synthetic transcriptional repression assay in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Using this approach, we found that repression activity was highly conserved and likely the ancestral function of this motif. We also identified key residues that contribute to repressive function. We leveraged this new knowledge for two applications. First, we tested the role of mutations found in somatic cancers on repression function in two human LisH-containing proteins. Second, we validated function of many of our repression domains in plants, confirming that these sequences should be of use to synthetic biology applications across many eukaryotes.

Abstract
The katanin family of microtubule-severing enzymes is critical for cytoskeletal rearrangements that affect key cellular processes like division, migration, signaling, and homeostasis. In humans, aberrant expression, or dysfunction of the katanins, is linked to developmental, proliferative, and neurodegenerative disorders. Here, we review current knowledge on the mammalian family of katanins, including an overview of evolutionary conservation, functional domain organization, and the mechanisms that regulate katanin activity. We assess the function of katanins in dividing and non-dividing cells and how their dysregulation promotes impaired ciliary signaling and defects in developmental programs (corticogenesis, gametogenesis, and neurodevelopment) and contributes to neurodegeneration and cancer. We conclude with perspectives on future katanin research that will advance our understanding of this exciting and dynamic class of disease-associated enzymes.

Abstract
RanBPM (Ran-binding protein M, also called RanBP9) is an evolutionarily conserved, ubiquitous protein which localizes to both nucleus and cytoplasm. RanBPM has been implicated in the regulation of a number of signalling pathways to regulate several cellular processes such as apoptosis, cell adhesion, migration as well as transcription, and plays a critical role during development. In addition, RanBPM has been shown to regulate pathways implicated in cancer and Alzheimer's disease, implying that RanBPM has important functions in both normal and pathological development. While its functions in these processes are still poorly understood, RanBPM has been identified as a component of a large complex, termed the CTLH (C-terminal to LisH) complex. The yeast homologue of this complex functions as an E3 ubiquitin ligase that targets enzymes of the gluconeogenesis pathway. While the CTLH complex E3 ubiquitin ligase activity and substrates still remain to be characterized, the high level of conservation between the complexes in yeast and mammals infers that the CTLH complex could also serve to promote the degradation of specific substrates through ubiquitination, therefore suggesting the possibility that RanBPM's various functions may be mediated through the activity of the CTLH complex.

SUMOylation of TBL1 and TBLR1 promotes androgen-independent prostate cancer cell growth. Oncotarget 2018; 7:41110-41122.

Abstract
Chronic inflammation is strongly associated with prostate cancer pathogenesis. Transducin β-like protein (TBL1) and Transducin β-like 1X-linked receptor 1 (TBLR1) have been identified recently as a coactivator for NF-κB-mediated transcription; however, the underlying mechanism by which TBL1 and TBLR1 activate NF-κB function during inflammation remains unknown. Here, we demonstrate that cytokine production is significantly elevated in androgen-independent PC-3 prostate cancer cells compared with androgen-dependent LNCaP prostate cancer cells. Elevated cytokine production positively correlates with the TBL1 and TBLR1 SUMOylation level in PC-3 cells. We show that both TBL1 and TBLR1 are SUMOylated in response to TNF-α treatment, and this increases formation of the TBL1-TBLR1-NF-κB complex, which leads to NF-κB-mediated transcriptional activation of cytokine gene expression. Conversely, SENP1-mediated deSUMOylation of TBL1 and TBLR1 inhibits NF-κB-target gene expression by dissociating TBL1 and TBLR1 from the nuclear hormone receptor corepressor (NCoR) complex. TBL1 knockdown substantially suppresses inflammatory signaling and PC-3 cell proliferation. Collectively, these results suggest that targeted SUMOylation of TBL1 and TBLR1 may be a useful strategy for therapeutic treatment of androgen-independent prostate cancer.

Abstract
Background Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) is a microtubule-associated deacetylase that promotes many cellular processes that lead to cell transformation and tumour development. We previously documented an interaction between Ran-Binding Protein M (RanBPM) and HDAC6 and found that RanBPM expression inhibits HDAC6 activity. RanBPM is part of a putative E3 ubiquitin ligase complex, termed the C-terminal to LisH (CTLH) complex. Here, we investigated the involvement of the CTLH complex on HDAC6 inhibition and assessed the outcome of this regulation on the cellular motility induced by HDAC6. Methods Cell lines (Hela, HEK293 and immortalized mouse embryonic fibroblasts) stably or transiently downregulated for several components of the CTLH complex were employed for the assays used in this study. Interactions of HDAC6, RanBPM and muskelin were assessed by co-immunoprecipitations. Quantifications of western blot analyses were employed to evaluate acetylated α-tubulin levels. Confocal microscopy analyses were used to determine microtubule association of HDAC6 and CTLH complex members. Cell migration was evaluated using wound healing assays. Results We demonstrate that RanBPM-mediated inhibition of HDAC6 is dependent on its association with HDAC6. We show that, while HDAC6 does not require RanBPM to associate with microtubules, RanBPM association with microtubules requires HDAC6. Additionally, we show that Twa1 (Two-hybrid-associated protein 1 with RanBPM) and MAEA (Macrophage Erythroblast Attacher), two CTLH complex members, also associate with α-tubulin and that muskelin, another component of the CTLH complex, is able to associate with HDAC6. Downregulation of CTLH complex members muskelin and Rmnd5A (Required for meiotic nuclear division homolog A) resulted in decreased acetylation of HDAC6 substrate α-tubulin. Finally, we demonstrate that the increased cell migration resulting from downregulation of RanBPM is due to the relief in inhibition of HDAC6 α-tubulin deacetylase activity. Conclusions Our work shows that RanBPM, together with the CTLH complex, associates with HDAC6 and restricts cell migration through inhibition of HDAC6 activity. This study uncovers a novel function for the CTLH complex and suggests that it could have a tumour suppressive role in restricting HDAC6 oncogenic properties.

Abstract
AIMS The study was designed to find out the protein complex(s) associated with HDAC3 in liver cancer using a modified form of affinity purification coupled with a mass spectrometry technique in HepG2 cells. The organ-specific requirement for HDAC1 and HDAC3 during liver formation in zebrafish and their altered expression in liver cancer tissues indicates they are indispensible for hepato-organogenesis and hepatocarcinogenesis. However, how they exert their function is unknown. MATERIAL & METHODS HepG2 cells were transfected with either mock or construct-containing HDAC3 using a C-terminal strepIII-HA tag as bait. The bait proteins were purified by double affinity columns and were analyzed on a Thermo LTQ Orbitrap™ (Thermo Scientific, MA, USA) chromatography system. RESULTS Affinity purification coupled with mass spectrometry resulted in the identification of 24 putative binders of HDAC3 in HepG2 cells. The majority (83%) of these are novel interactions are reported for the first time in this study. CONCLUSION This is the first study reporting the affinity purification and identification of protein complexes with two closely related proteins in one cell line. The novel HDAC1 and HDAC3 complexes identified in HepG2 cells could serve as a platform for the design of future therapeutic medicine for the treatment of liver cancer.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common type of liver cancer and is still one of the most fatal cancers. Hence, it needs to identify always new putative markers to improve its diagnosis and prognosis. Since the selenium is able to fight the oxidative damage which is one of the major origins of cell damage as well as cancer, we have recently focused our attention on selenoprotein family and their involvement in HCC. In the present paper we have carried out a global analysis of the selenotranscriptome expression in HepG2 and Huh7 cells compared to the normal human hepatocytes by reverse transcription-qPCR (RT-qPCR). Our data showed that in both cells there are three downregulated (DIO1, DIO2, and SELO) and ten upregulated (GPX4, GPX7, SELK, SELM, SELN, SELT, SELV, SEP15, SEPW1, and TrxR1) genes. Additionally, interactomic studies were carried out to evaluate the ability of these down- and upregulated genes to interact between them as well as to identify putative HUB nodes representing the centers of correlation able to exercise a direct control over the coordinated genes.

Abstract
Transducin (beta)-like 1X related protein 1 (TBL1XR1/TBLR1) is an integral subunit of the NCoR (nuclear receptor corepressor) and SMRT (silencing mediator of retinoic acid and thyroid hormone receptors) repressor complexes. It is an evolutionally conserved protein that shares high similarity across all species. TBL1XR1 is essential for transcriptional repression mediated by unliganded nuclear receptors (NRs) and othe regulated transcription factors (TFs). However, it can also act as a transcription activator through the recruitment of the ubiquitin-conjugating/19S proteasome complex that mediates the exchange of corepressors for coactivators. TBL1XR1 is required for the activation of multiple intracellular signaling pathways. TBL1XR1 germline mutations and recurrent mutations are linked to intellectual disability. Upregulation of TBL1XR1 is observed in a variety of solid tumors, which is associated with advanced tumor stage, metastasis and poor prognosis. A variety of genomic alterations, such as translocation, deletion and mutation have been identified in many types of neoplasms. Loss of TBL1XR1 in B-lymphoblastic leukemia disrupts glucocorticoid receptor recruitment to chromatin and results in glucocorticoid resistance. However, the mechanisms of other types of genomic changes in tumorogenesis are still not clear. A pre-clinical study has shown that the disruption of the interaction between TBL1X and β-catenin using a small molecule can inhibit the growth of AML stem and blast cells both in vitro and in vivo. These findings shed light on the therapeutic potentials of targeting TBL1XR1 related proteins in cancer treatment.

Abstract
The majority of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) cases are characterized by the PML-RARα fusion gene. Although the PML-RARα fusion gene can be detected in >98% of APL cases, RARα is also found to be fused with other partner genes, which are also related to all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA)-dependent transcriptional activity and cell differentiation. In this study, we identified a novel RARα fusion gene, TBLR1-RARα (GenBank KF589333), in a rare case of APL with a t(3;17)(q26;q21),t(7;17)(q11.2;q21) complex chromosomal rearrangement. To our knowledge, TBLR1-RARα is the 10th RARα chimeric gene that has been reported up to now. TBLR1-RARα contained the B-F domains of RARα and exhibited a distinct subcellular localization. It could form homodimers and also heterodimers with retinoid X receptor α. As a result, TBLR1-RARα exhibited diminished transcriptional activity by recruitment of more transcriptional corepressors compared with RARα. In the presence of pharmacologic doses of ATRA, TBLR1-RARα could be degraded, and its homodimerization was abrogated. Moreover, when treated with ATRA, TBLR1-RARα could mediate the dissociation and degradation of transcriptional corepressors, consequent transactivation of RARα target genes, and cell differentiation induction in a dose- and time-dependent manner.

Abstract
In response to perturbation of the cell division machinery fission yeast cells activate regulatory networks that ensure the faithful completion of cytokinesis. For instance, when cells are treated with drugs that impede constriction of the actomyosin ring (low doses of Latrunculin A, for example) these networks ensure that cytokinesis is complete before progression into the subsequent mitosis. Here, we identify three previously uncharacterized genes, hif2, set3, and snt1, whose deletion results in hyper-sensitivity to LatA treatment and in increased rates of cytokinesis failure. Interestingly, these genes are orthologous to TBL1X, MLL5, and NCOR2, human genes that encode components of a histone deacetylase complex with a known role in cytokinesis. Through co-immunoprecipitation experiments, localization studies, and phenotypic analysis of gene deletion mutants, we provide evidence for an orthologous complex in fission yeast. Furthermore, in light of the putative role of the complex in chromatin modification, together with our results demonstrating an increase in Set3p levels upon Latrunculin A treatment, global gene expression profiles were generated. While this analysis demonstrated that the expression of cytokinesis genes was not significantly affected in set3Δ backgrounds, it did reveal defects in the ability of the mutant to regulate genes with roles in the cellular response to stress. Taken together, these findings support the existence of a conserved, multi-protein complex with a role in promoting the successful completion of cytokinesis.

Abstract
HIV-1 Vpr-binding protein (VprBP) has been implicated in the regulation of both DNA replication and cell cycle progression, but its precise role remains unclear. Here we report that VprBP regulates the p53-induced transcription and apoptotic pathway. VprBP is recruited to p53-responsive promoters and suppresses p53 transactivation in the absence of stress stimuli. To maintain target promoters in an inactive state, VprBP stably binds to nucleosomes by recognizing unacetylated H3 tails. Promoter-localized deacetylation of H3 tails is a prerequisite for VprBP to tether and act as a bona fide inhibitor at p53 target genes. VprBP knockdown leads to activation of p53 target genes and causes an increase in DNA damage-induced apoptosis. Moreover, phosphorylation of VprBP at serine 895 impairs the ability of VprBP to bind H3 tails and to repress p53 transactivation. Our results thus reveal a new role for VprBP in regulation of the p53 signaling pathway, as well as molecular mechanisms of cancer development related to VprBP misregulation.

Reversible SUMOylation of TBL1-TBLR1 regulates β-catenin-mediated Wnt signaling. Mol Cell 2012; 43:203-16.

Abstract
Dysregulation of Wnt signaling has been implicated in tumorigenesis. The role of Transducin β-like proteins TBL1-TBLR1 in the promotion of Wnt/β-catenin-mediated oncogenesis has recently been emphasized; however, the molecular basis of activation of Wnt signaling by the corepressor TBL1-TBLR1 is incompletely understood. Here, we show that both TBL1 and TBLR1 are SUMOylated in a Wnt signaling-dependent manner, and that this modification is selectively reversed by SUMO-specific protease I (SENP1). SUMOylation dismissed TBL1-TBLR1 from the nuclear hormone receptor corepressor (NCoR) complex, increased recruitment of the TBL1-TBLR1-β-catenin complex to the promoter of Wnt target genes, and consequently led to activation of Wnt signaling. Conversely, SENP1 decreased formation of the TBL1-TBLR1-β-catenin complex, leading to inhibition of β-catenin-mediated transcription. Importantly, inhibition of SUMOylation significantly decreased the tumorigenicity of SW480 colon cancer cells. Thus, our data reveal a mechanism for activation of Wnt signaling via the SUMOylation-dependent disassembly of the corepressor complex.

Abstract
Eukaryotic transcriptional repressors function by recruiting large coregulatory complexes that target histone deacetylase enzymes to gene promoters and enhancers. Transcriptional repression complexes, assembled by the corepressor NCoR and its homolog SMRT, are crucial in many processes, including development and metabolic physiology. The core repression complex involves the recruitment of three proteins, HDAC3, GPS2 and TBL1, to a highly conserved repression domain within SMRT and NCoR. We have used structural and functional approaches to gain insight into the architecture and biological role of this complex. We report the crystal structure of the tetrameric oligomerization domain of TBL1, which interacts with both SMRT and GPS2, and the NMR structure of the interface complex between GPS2 and SMRT. These structures, together with computational docking, mutagenesis and functional assays, reveal the assembly mechanism and stoichiometry of the corepressor complex.

The repressing function of the oncoprotein BCL-3 requires CtBP, while its polyubiquitination and degradation involve the E3 ligase TBLR1. Mol Cell Biol 2010; 30:4006-21.

Abstract
The nuclear and oncogenic BCL-3 protein activates or represses gene transcription when bound to NF-kappaB proteins p50 and p52, yet the molecules that specifically interact with BCL-3 and drive BCL-3-mediated effects on gene expression remain largely uncharacterized. Moreover, GSK3-mediated phosphorylation of BCL-3 triggers its degradation through the proteasome, but the proteins involved in this degradative pathway are poorly characterized. Biochemical purification of interacting partners of BCL-3 led to the identification of CtBP as a molecule required for the ability of BCL-3 to repress gene transcription. CtBP is also required for the oncogenic potential of BCL-3 and for its ability to inhibit UV-mediated cell apoptosis in keratinocytes. We also defined the E3 ligase TBLR1 as a protein involved in BCL-3 degradation through a GSK3-independent pathway. Thus, our data demonstrate that the LSD1/CtBP complex is required for the repressing abilities of an oncogenic I kappaB protein, and they establish a functional link between the E3 ligase TBLR1 and NF-kappaB.
