Feng Y, Guo X, Luo M, Sun Y, Sun L, Zhang H, Zou Y, Liu D, Lu H. GbHSP90 act as a dual functional role regulated in telomere stability in Ginkgo biloba. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 279:135240. [PMID: 39250995 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.135240] [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: 02/07/2024] [Revised: 08/12/2024] [Accepted: 08/29/2024] [Indexed: 09/11/2024]
Abstract
The heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) family members are not only widely involved in animal cellular immune response and signal transduction pathway regulation, but also play an important role in plant development and environmental stress response. Here,we identified a HSP90 family member in Ginkgo biloba, designated as GbHSP90, which performs a dual functional role to regulate telomere stability. GbHSP90 was screened by a yeast one-hybrid library using the Ginkgo biloba telomeric DNA (TTTAGGG)5. Fluorescence polarization, surface plasmon resonance(SPR) and EMSA technologyies revealed a specific interaction between GbHSP90 and the double-stranded telomeric DNA via its N-CR region, with no affinity for the single-stranded telomeric DNA or human double-stranded telomeric DNA. Furthermore, yeast two-hybrid system and Split-LUC assay demonstrated that GbHSP90 can interacts with two telomere end-binding proteins:the ginkgo telomerase reverse transcriptase (GbTERT) and the ginkgo Structural Maintenance of Chromosomes protein 1 (GbSMC1). Overexpression of GbHSP90 in human 293 T and HeLa cells increased cell growth rate, the content of telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT), and promote cell division and inhibit cell apoptosis. Our results indicated GbHSP90 have dually functions: as a telomere-binding protein that binds specifically to double-stranded telomeric DNA and as a molecular chaperone that modulates cell differentiation and apoptosis by binding to telomere protein complexes in Ginkgo biloba. This study contributes to a significantly understanding of the unique telomere complex structure and regulatory mechanisms in Ginkgo biloba, a long-lived tree species.

Abstract
Maintaining the structural integrity of genomic chromosomal DNA is an essential role of cellular life and requires two important biological mechanisms: the DNA damage response (DDR) mechanism and telomere protection mechanism at chromosome ends. Because abnormalities in telomeres and cellular DDR regulation are strongly associated with human aging and cancer, there is a reciprocal regulation of telomeres and cellular DDR. Moreover, several drug treatments for DDR are currently available. This paper reviews the progress in research on the interaction between telomeres and cellular DNA damage repair pathways. The research on the crosstalk between telomere damage and DDR is important for improving the efficacy of tumor treatment. However, further studies are required to confirm this hypothesis.

Complex 4q35 and 10q26 Rearrangements: A Challenge for Molecular Diagnosis of Patients With Facioscapulohumeral Dystrophy. Neurol Genet 2023; 9:e200076. [PMID: 37200893 PMCID: PMC10188231 DOI: 10.1212/nxg.0000000000200076] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/20/2023] [Accepted: 03/23/2023] [Indexed: 05/20/2023]
Abstract
Background and Objectives After clinical evaluation, the molecular diagnosis of type 1 facioscapulohumeral dystrophy (FSHD1) relies in most laboratories on the detection of a shortened D4Z4 array at the 4q35 locus by Southern blotting. In many instances, this molecular diagnosis remains inconclusive and requires additional experiments to determine the number of D4Z4 units or identify somatic mosaicism, 4q-10q translocations, and proximal p13E-11 deletions. These limitations highlight the need for alternative methodologies, illustrated by the recent emergence of novel technologies such as molecular combing (MC), single molecule optical mapping (SMOM), or Oxford Nanopore-based long-read sequencing providing a more comprehensive analysis of 4q and 10q loci. Over the last decade, MC revealed a further increasing complexity in the organization of the 4q and 10q distal regions in patients with FSHD with cis-duplication of D4Z4 arrays in approximately 1%-2% of cases. Methods By using MC, we investigated in our center 2,363 cases for molecular diagnosis of FSHD. We also evaluated whether previously reported cis-duplications might be identified by SMOM using the Bionano EnFocus FSHD 1.0 algorithm. Results In our cohort of 2,363 samples, we identified 147 individuals carrying an atypical organization of the 4q35 or 10q26 loci. Mosaicism is the most frequent category followed by cis-duplications of the D4Z4 array. We report here chromosomal abnormalities of the 4q35 or 10q26 loci in 54 patients clinically described as FSHD, which are not present in the healthy population. In one-third of the 54 patients, these rearrangements are the only genetic defect suggesting that they might be causative of the disease. By analyzing DNA samples from 3 patients carrying a complex rearrangement of the 4q35 region, we further showed that the SMOM direct assembly of the 4q and 10q alleles failed to reveal these abnormalities and lead to negative results for FSHD molecular diagnosis. Discussion This work further highlights the complexity of the 4q and 10q subtelomeric regions and the need of in-depth analyses in a significant number of cases. This work also highlights the complexity of the 4q35 region and interpretation issues with consequences on the molecular diagnosis of patients or genetic counseling.

Abstract
TPP1, as one of the telomere-protective protein complex, functions to maintain telomere stability. In this study, we found that TPP1 was significantly upregulated in esophageal cancer (EC). We found that the proliferation and migration ability were significantly inhibited, while the results of flow cytometry assay indicated that the growth was hindered in the G1 phase after TPP1 knockdown. However, the proliferative viability and migratory ability were reversed after TPP1 overexpression in EC cells. Then, we found a significant increase in β-galactosidase positivity following TPP1 knockdown and the opposite following TPP1 overexpression in EC cells. Furthermore, TPP1 knockdown increased DNA damage and upregulated expression of the γ-H2AXS139 in the cell nucleus. Correspondingly, DNA damage was reversed after TPP1 overexpression in EC cells. Similarly, we found that the expression of ATM/ATR pathway proteins were upregulated after TPP1 knockdown, while the expression of the above proteins was downregulated after TPP1 overexpression in EC cells. TPP1 knockdown significantly inhibited the growth of transplanted tumors and upregulated the expression of ATM/ATR pathway proteins in transplanted tissues, whereas TPP1 overexpression significantly promoted their proliferation and downregulated the expression of the above proteins in vivo. Strikingly, we found that TPP1 could reduce the chemosensitivity of EC cells to cisplatin, which may have a potential link to clinical chemoresistance. In conclusion, TPP1 regulates the DNA damage response through the ATM/ATR-p53 signaling pathway and chemoresistance and may be a new target for improving the efficacy of chemotherapy in the treatment of EC.

Proteomic profiling reveals neuronal ion channel dysregulation and cellular responses to DNA damage-induced cell cycle arrest and senescence in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells exposed to cypermethrin. Neurotoxicology 2022; 93:71-83. [PMID: 36063984 DOI: 10.1016/j.neuro.2022.08.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2022] [Revised: 07/27/2022] [Accepted: 08/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
Cypermethrin (CYP), a synthetic pyrethroid of class II, is widely used as a pesticide worldwide. The primary target of cypermethrin is a voltage-gated sodium channel. The neurotoxicity of CYP has been extensively studied in terms of affecting neuronal development, increasing cellular oxidative stress, and apoptosis. However, little is known about how it affects the expression of channel proteins involved in synaptic transmission, as well as the effects of cypermethrin on DNA damage and cell cycle processes. We found that the ligand and voltage-gated calcium channels and proteins involved in synaptic transmission including NMDA 1 receptor subunit, alpha 1A-voltage-dependent calcium channel, synaptotagmin-17, and synaptojanin-2 were downregulated in CYP-treated cells. After 48h of CYP exposure, cell viability was reduced with flattened and enlarged morphology. The levels of 23 proteins regulating cell cycle processes were altered in CYP-treated cells, according to a proteomic study. The cell cycle analysis showed elevated G0/G1 cell cycle arrest and DNA fragmentation at the sub-G0 stage after CYP exposure. CYP treatment also increased senescence-associated β-galactosidase positive cells, DNA damage, and apoptotic markers. Taken together, the current study showed that cypermethrin exposure caused DNA damage and hastened cellular senescence and apoptosis via disrupting cell cycle regulation. In addition, despite its primary target sodium channel, CYP might cause synaptic dysfunction via the downregulation of synaptic proteins and dysregulation of synapse-associated ion channels.

Abstract
The repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) is crucial for the preservation of genomic integrity and the maintenance of cellular homeostasis. Non-homologous DNA end joining (NHEJ) is the predominant repair mechanism for any type of DNA DSB during the majority of the cell cycle. NHEJ defects regulate tumor sensitivity to ionizing radiation and anti-neoplastic agents, resulting in immunodeficiencies and developmental abnormalities in malignant cells. p53-binding protein 1 (53BP1) is a key mediator involved in DSB repair, which functions to maintain a balance in the repair pathway choices and in preserving genomic stability. 53BP1 promotes DSB repair via NHEJ and antagonizes DNA end overhang resection. At present, novel lines of evidence have revealed the molecular mechanisms underlying the recruitment of 53BP1 and DNA break-responsive effectors to DSB sites, and the promotion of NHEJ-mediated DSB repair via 53BP1, while preventing homologous recombination. In the present review article, recent advances made in the elucidation of the structural and functional characteristics of 53BP1, the mechanisms of 53BP1 recruitment and interaction with the reshaping of the chromatin architecture around DSB sites, the post-transcriptional modifications of 53BP1, and the up- and downstream pathways of 53BP1 are discussed. The present review article also focuses on the application perspectives, current challenges and future directions of 53BP1 research.

Abstract
Structural Maintenance of Chromosomes Hinge Domain Containing 1 (SMCHD1) is a chromatin repressor, which is mutated in > 95% of Facioscapulohumeral dystrophy (FSHD) type 2 cases. In FSHD2, SMCHD1 mutations ultimately result in the presence of the cleavage stage transcription factor DUX4 in muscle cells due to a failure in epigenetic repression of the D4Z4 macrosatellite repeat on chromosome 4q, which contains the DUX4 locus. While binding of SMCHD1 to D4Z4 and its necessity to maintain a repressive D4Z4 chromatin structure in somatic cells are well documented, it is unclear how SMCHD1 is recruited to D4Z4, and how it exerts its repressive properties on chromatin. Here, we employ a quantitative proteomics approach to identify and characterize novel SMCHD1 interacting proteins, and assess their functionality in D4Z4 repression. We identify 28 robust SMCHD1 nuclear interactors, of which 12 are present in D4Z4 chromatin of myocytes. We demonstrate that loss of one of these SMCHD1 interacting proteins, RuvB-like 1 (RUVBL1), further derepresses DUX4 in FSHD myocytes. We also confirm the interaction of SMCHD1 with EZH inhibitory protein (EZHIP), a protein which prevents global H3K27me3 deposition by the Polycomb repressive complex PRC2, providing novel insights into the potential function of SMCHD1 in the repression of DUX4 in the early stages of embryogenesis. The SMCHD1 interactome outlined herein can thus provide further direction into research on the potential function of SMCHD1 at genomic loci where SMCHD1 is known to act, such as D4Z4 repeats, the inactive X chromosome, autosomal gene clusters, imprinted loci and telomeres.

Abstract
In response to DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), chromatin modifications orchestrate DNA repair pathways thus safeguarding genome integrity. Recent studies have uncovered a key role for heterochromatin marks and associated factors in shaping DSB repair within the nucleus. In this review, we present our current knowledge of the interplay between heterochromatin marks and DSB repair. We discuss the impact of heterochromatin features, either pre-existing in heterochromatin domains or de novo established in euchromatin, on DSB repair pathway choice. We emphasize how heterochromatin decompaction and mobility further support DSB repair, focusing on recent mechanistic insights into these processes. Finally, we speculate about potential molecular players involved in the maintenance or the erasure of heterochromatin marks following DSB repair, and their implications for restoring epigenome function and integrity.

JCO Precis Oncol 2021; 5:PO.21.00141. [PMID: 34423229 PMCID: PMC8373547 DOI: 10.1200/po.21.00141] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/01/2021] [Revised: 06/07/2021] [Accepted: 07/06/2021] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Homologous recombination DNA repair deficiency (HRD) is associated with sensitivity to platinum and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors in certain cancer types, including breast, ovarian, pancreatic, and prostate. In these cancers, BRCA1/2 alterations and genomic scar signatures are useful indicators for assessing HRD. However, alterations in other homologous recombination repair (HRR)-related genes and their clinical significance in other cancer types have not been adequately and systematically investigated. METHODS We obtained data sets of all solid tumors in The Cancer Genome Atlas and Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia, and comprehensively analyzed HRR pathway gene alterations, their loss-of-heterozygosity status, and per-sample genomic scar scores, that is, the HRD score and mutational signature 3 ratio, DNA methylation profiles, gene expression profiles, somatic TP53 mutations, sex, and clinical or in vitro response to chemical exposure. RESULTS Biallelic alterations in HRR genes other than BRCA1/2 were also associated with elevated genomic scar scores. The association between HRR-related gene alterations and genomic scar scores differed significantly by sex and the presence of somatic TP53 mutations. HRD tumors determined by a combination of indices also showed HRD features in gene expression analysis and exhibited significantly higher sensitivity to DNA-damaging agents than non-HRD cases in both clinical samples and cell lines. CONCLUSION This study provides evidence for the usefulness of HRD analysis in all cancer types, improves chemotherapy decision making and its efficacy in clinical settings, and represents a substantial advancement in precision oncology.A comprehensive pan-cancer analysis on the clinical significance of homologous recombination deficiency.

DRUG DESIGN DEVELOPMENT AND THERAPY 2021; 15:1749-1763. [PMID: 33953544 PMCID: PMC8089107 DOI: 10.2147/dddt.s288841] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2020] [Accepted: 01/30/2021] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
Background The role of Hydroxysafflor Yellow A (HSYA) in glioma is less studied, this research determined the effect of HSYA on glioma cells. Methods The expressions of MYC and NBS1 in glioma tissues were detected by bioinformatics analysis and verified by RT-qPCR. The target relationship between MYC and NBS1 was predicted by bioinformatics. After treating the cells with HSYA, silenced MYC, or overexpressed NBS1, the viability, apoptosis, proliferation, invasion, migration, and DNA damage of the glioma cells were detected by MTT, flow cytometry, colony formation, transwell, wound healing, and γH2AX immunofluorescence assays, respectively. IC50 of HSYA in glioma cells was analyzed by Probit regression analysis. The expressions of MYC, NBS1, factors related to migration, invasion, apoptosis, and DNA damage of the glioma cells were determined by Western blot or RT-qPCR. Results MYC and NBS1 were high-expressed in glioma, and NBS1 was targeted by MYC. HSYA and siRNA targeting MYC inhibited the cell viability, proliferation, invasion, migration, and induced the cell apoptosis of glioma cells. HSYA upregulated the expressions of MYC, γH2AX, E-Cadherin, Bax, and Cleaved-PARP1, stimulated the activation of NBS1, MRE11, RAD50, and ATM, and downregulated the expressions of N-Cadherin and Bcl2 in glioma cells. SiMYC decreased the IC50 of HSYA in the glioma cells, enhanced the sensitivity of glioma cells to HSYA, and inhibited the activation of NBS1 and ATM. NBS1 overexpression reversed the effect of siRNA targeting MYC on glioma cells. Conclusion MYC silencing inhibited the DNA damage response via regulation of NBS1, leading to DNA repair deficiency, and subsequently enhanced the sensitivity of glioma cells to HSYA.

Abstract
The evolutionarily conserved POT1 protein binds single-stranded G-rich telomeric DNA and has been implicated in contributing to telomeric DNA maintenance and the suppression of DNA damage checkpoint signaling. Here, we explore human POT1 function through genetics and proteomics, discovering that a complete absence of POT1 leads to severe telomere maintenance defects that had not been anticipated from previous depletion studies in human cells. Conditional deletion of POT1 in HEK293E cells gives rise to rapid telomere elongation and length heterogeneity, branched telomeric DNA structures, telomeric R-loops, and telomere fragility. We determine the telomeric proteome upon POT1-loss, implementing an improved telomeric chromatin isolation protocol. We identify a large set of proteins involved in nucleic acid metabolism that engage with telomeres upon POT1-loss. Inactivation of the homology-directed repair machinery suppresses POT1-loss-mediated telomeric DNA defects. Our results unravel as major function of human POT1 the suppression of telomere instability induced by homology-directed repair.

Abstract
Telomeres are DNA repeats at the ends of linear chromosomes and are replicated by telomerase, a ribonucleoprotein reverse transcriptase. Telomere length regulation and chromosome end capping are essential for genome stability and are mediated primarily by the shelterin and CST complexes. POT1-TPP1, a subunit of shelterin, binds the telomeric overhang, suppresses ATR-dependent DNA damage response, and recruits telomerase to telomeres for DNA replication. POT1 localization to telomeres and chromosome end protection requires its interaction with TPP1. Therefore, the POT1-TPP1 complex is critical to telomere maintenance and full telomerase processivity. The aim of this mini-review is to summarize recent POT1-TPP1 structural studies and discuss how the complex contributes to telomere length regulation. In addition, we review how disruption of POT1-TPP1 function leads to human disease.

Abstract
Structural maintenance of chromosomes flexible hinge domain-containing protein 1 (SMCHD1) has been implicated in X-chromosome inactivation, imprinting, and DNA damage repair, and mutations in SMCHD1 can cause facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy. More recently, SMCHD1 has also been identified as a component of telomeric chromatin. Here, we report that SMCHD1 is required for DNA damage signaling and non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) at unprotected telomeres. Co-depletion of SMCHD1 and the shelterin subunit TRF2 reduced telomeric 3'-overhang removal in time-course experiments, as well as the number of chromosome end fusions. SMCHD1-deficient cells displayed reduced ATM S1981 phosphorylation and diminished formation of γH2AX foci and of 53BP1-containing telomere dysfunction-induced foci (TIFs), indicating defects in DNA damage checkpoint signaling. Removal of TPP1 and subsequent activation of ATR signaling rescued telomere fusion events in TRF2-depleted SMCHD1 knockout cells. Together, these data indicate that SMCHD1 depletion reduces telomere fusions in TRF2-depleted cells due to defects in ATM-dependent checkpoint signaling and that SMCHD1 mediates DNA damage response activation upstream of ATM phosphorylation at uncapped telomeres.
