Molecular chaperones are essential components of the protein quality control system and maintenance of homeostasis. Heat Shock Protein 70 (HSP70), a highly evolutionarily conserved family of chaperones is a key regulator of protein folding, oligomerisation and prevents the aggregation of misfolded proteins. HSP70 chaperone function depends on the so-called ‘HSP70-cycle', where HSP70 interacts with and is released from substrates via ATP hydrolysis and the assistance of HSP70 co-factors/co-chaperones, which also provide substrate specificity. The identification of regulatory modules for HSP70 allows the elucidation of HSP70 specificity and target selectivity. Here, we discuss how the HSP70 cycle is functionally linked with the cycle of the Ubiquitin-like molecule NEDD8. Using as an example the DNA damage response, we present a model where HSP70 acts as a sensor of the NEDD8 cycle. The NEDD8 cycle acts as a regulatory module of HSP70 activity, where conversion of poly-NEDD8 chains into mono-NEDD8 upon DNA damage activates HSP70, facilitating the formation of the apoptosome and apoptosis execution.

AbstractCHIP (carboxyl terminus of heat shock 70-interacting protein) has long been recognized as an active member of the cellular protein quality control system given the ability of CHIP to function as both a co-chaperone and ubiquitin ligase. Mutations in CHIP are the driver of spinocerebellar autosomal recessive 16 (SCAR16), or cerebellar CHIPopathy, as we initially discovered this disease was caused by a loss of CHIP ubiquitin ligase function. The initial mutation describing SCAR16 was a missense mutation in the ubiquitin ligase domain of CHIP (p.T246M). Using multiple biophysical and cellular approaches, we demonstrate that T246M mutation results in structural disorganization and misfolding of the CHIP U-box domain, promoting oligomerization, and increased proteasome-dependent turnover. CHIP-T246M has no ligase activity, but maintains interactions with chaperones and alters the co-chaperone function of CHIP. To establish preclinical models of SCAR16, we engineered T246M at the endogenous locus in both mice and rats. Animals homozygous for T246M had both cognitive and motor cerebellar dysfunction distinct from those observed in the CHIP null animal model, as well as deficits in learning and memory, reflective of the cognitive deficits reported in SCAR16 patients. We conclude that the T246M mutation is not equivalent to the total loss of CHIP, supporting the concept that disease-causing CHIP mutations have different biophysical and functional repercussions on CHIP function that may directly correlate to the spectrum of clinical phenotypes observed in SCAR16 patients. Our findings both further expand our basic understanding of CHIP biology and provide meaningful mechanistic insight underlying the molecular drivers of SCAR16 disease pathology, which may be used to inform the development of novel therapeutics for this devastating disease.

SummaryUbiquitin and ubiquitin-like chains are finely balanced by the action of conjugating and de-conjugating enzymes. Alterations in this balance trigger signalling events required for the response to stress conditions and are often observed in pathologies. How such changes are detected is not well-understood. We show that upon DNA damage the induction of the de-NEDDylating enzyme NEDP1 restricts the formation of poly-NEDD8 chains, mainly through lysines K11/K48. This promotes APAF1 oligomerisation and apoptosis induction, a step that requires the HSP70 ATPase activity. We found that HSP70 binds to NEDD8 and in vitro, mono-NEDD8 stimulates the ATPase activity of HSP70, counteracted upon poly-NEDDylation. This effect is independent of NEDD8 conjugation onto substrates. The studies identify the HSP70 chaperone as sensor of changes in the NEDD8 cycle, providing mechanistic insights for a cytoplasmic role of NEDD8 in the DNA damage induced apoptosis. They also indicate that the balance between mono- versus poly-NEDDylation is a regulatory module of HSP70 function. The above findings may be important in tumorigenesis, as we find that NEDP1 levels are downregulated in Hepatocellular Carcinoma with concomitant accumulation of NEDD8 conjugates.

Aaa Protein

A protein quality control system, consisting of molecular chaperones and proteases, controls the folding status of proteins and mediates the refolding or degradation of misfolded proteins. Ring-forming AAA+ (ATPase associated with various cellular activities) proteins play crucial roles in both processes by co-operating with either peptidases or chaperone systems. Peptidase-associated AAA+ proteins bind substrates and thread them through their axial channel into the attached proteolytic chambers for degradation. In contrast, the AAA+ protein ClpB evolved independently from an interacting peptidase and co-operates with a cognate Hsp70 (heat-shock protein 70) chaperone system to solubilize and refold aggregated proteins. The activity of this bi-chaperone system is crucial for the survival of bacteria, yeast and plants during severe stress conditions. Hsp70 acts at initial stages of the disaggregation process, enabling ClpB to extract single unfolded polypeptides from the aggregate via a threading activity. Although both classes of AAA+ proteins share a common threading activity, it is apparent that their divergent evolution translates into specific mechanisms, reflecting adaptations to their respective functions. The ClpB-specific M-domain (middle domain) represents such an extra feature that verifies ClpB as the central disaggregase in vivo. M-domains act as regulatory devices to control both ClpB ATPase activity and the Hsp70-dependent binding of aggregated proteins to the ClpB pore, thereby coupling the Hsp70 chaperone activity with the ClpB threading motor to ensure efficient protein disaggregation.

Abstract Background As one of the novel molecules, circRNA has been identified closely involved in the pathogenesis of many diseases. However, the function of circRNA in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) still remains unknown. Methods In the current study, the RNA expression profiles were obtained from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) datasets. The differentially expressed RNAs were identified using R software and the competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network was constructed using Cytoscape. Functional and pathway enrichment analyses were performed to identify the candidate circRNA-mediated aberrant signaling pathways. The hub genes were identified by MCODE and CytoHubba plugins of Cytoscape, and then a subnetwork regulatory module was established. Results A total of 27 circRNA-miRNA pairs and 208 miRNA-mRNA pairs, including 12 circRNAs, 24 miRNAs and 112 mRNAs were included in the ceRNA network. Subsequently, a subnetwork, including 4 circRNAs, 5 miRNAs and 6 mRNAs, was established based on related circRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory modules. Conclusions In summary, this work analyzes the characteristics of circRNA as competing endogenous RNA in AML pathogenesis, which would provide hints for developing novel prognostic, diagnostic and therapeutic strategy for AML.

AbstractDistinctive colour patterns in dogs are an integral component of canine diversity. Colour pattern differences are thought to have arisen from mutation and artificial selection during and after domestication from wolves but important gaps remain in understanding how these patterns evolved and are genetically controlled. In other mammals, variation at the ASIP gene controls both the temporal and spatial distribution of yellow and black pigments. Here, we identify independent regulatory modules for ventral and hair cycle ASIP expression, and we characterize their action and evolutionary origin. Structural variants define multiple alleles for each regulatory module and are combined in different ways to explain five distinctive dog colour patterns. Phylogenetic analysis reveals that the haplotype combination for one of these patterns is shared with Arctic white wolves and that its hair cycle-specific module probably originated from an extinct canid that diverged from grey wolves more than 2 million years ago. Natural selection for a lighter coat during the Pleistocene provided the genetic framework for widespread colour variation in dogs and wolves.

Meiosis is a cell division process with complex chromosome events where various molecules must work in tandem. To find meiosis-related genes, we screened evolutionarily conserved and reproductive tract-enriched genes using the CRISPR/Cas9 system and identified potassium channel tetramerization domain containing 19 (Kctd19) as an essential factor for meiosis. In prophase I, Kctd19 deficiency did not affect synapsis or the DNA damage response, and chiasma structures were also observed in metaphase I spermatocytes of Kctd19 KO mice. However, spermatocytes underwent apoptotic elimination during the metaphase-anaphase transition. We were able to rescue the Kctd19 KO phenotype with an epitope-tagged Kctd19 transgene. By immunoprecipitation-mass spectrometry, we confirmed the association of KCTD19 with zinc finger protein 541 (ZFP541) and histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1). Phenotyping of Zfp541 KO spermatocytes demonstrated XY chromosome asynapsis and recurrent DNA damage in the late pachytene stage, leading to apoptosis. In summary, our study reveals that KCTD19 associates with ZFP541 and HDAC1, and that both KCTD19 and ZFP541 are essential for meiosis in male mice.

ABSTRACT The bacterial pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis is the leading cause of death by an infectious disease among humans. Here, we describe a previously uncharacterized M. tuberculosis protein, Rv0991c, as a molecular chaperone that is activated by oxidation. Rv0991c has homologs in most bacterial lineages and appears to function analogously to the well-characterized Escherichia coli redox-regulated chaperone Hsp33, despite a dissimilar protein sequence. Rv0991c is transcriptionally coregulated with hsp60 and hsp70 chaperone genes in M. tuberculosis, suggesting that Rv0991c functions with these chaperones in maintaining protein quality control. Supporting this hypothesis, we found that, like oxidized Hsp33, oxidized Rv0991c prevents the aggregation of a model unfolded protein in vitro and promotes its refolding by the M. tuberculosis Hsp70 chaperone system. Furthermore, Rv0991c interacts with DnaK and can associate with many other M. tuberculosis proteins. We therefore propose that Rv0991c, which we named “Ruc” (redox-regulated protein with unstructured C terminus), represents a founding member of a new chaperone family that protects M. tuberculosis and other species from proteotoxicity during oxidative stress. IMPORTANCE M. tuberculosis infections are responsible for more than 1 million deaths per year. Developing effective strategies to combat this disease requires a greater understanding of M. tuberculosis biology. As in all cells, protein quality control is essential for the viability of M. tuberculosis, which likely faces proteotoxic stress within a host. Here, we identify an M. tuberculosis protein, Ruc, that gains chaperone activity upon oxidation. Ruc represents a previously unrecognized family of redox-regulated chaperones found throughout the bacterial superkingdom. Additionally, we found that oxidized Ruc promotes the protein-folding activity of the essential M. tuberculosis Hsp70 chaperone system. This work contributes to a growing body of evidence that oxidative stress provides a particular strain on cellular protein stability.

Amember of the family of ATPases associated with diverse cellular activities, called p97 in mammals and Cdc48 in yeast, associates with the cofactor Ufd1–Npl4 to move polyubiquitinated polypeptides from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane into the cytosol for their subsequent degradation by the proteasome. Here, we have studied the mechanism by which the p97–Ufd1–Npl4 complex functions in this retrotranslocation pathway. Substrate binding occurs when the first ATPase domain of p97 (D1 domain) is in its nucleotide-bound state, an interaction that also requires an association of p97 with the membrane through its NH2-terminal domain. The two ATPase domains (D1 and D2) of p97 appear to alternate in ATP hydrolysis, which is essential for the movement of polypeptides from the ER membrane into the cytosol. The ATPase itself can interact with nonmodified polypeptide substrates as they emerge from the ER membrane. Polyubiquitin chains linked by lysine 48 are recognized in a synergistic manner by both p97 and an evolutionarily conserved ubiquitin-binding site at the NH2 terminus of Ufd1. We propose a dual recognition model in which the ATPase complex binds both a nonmodified segment of the substrate and the attached polyubiquitin chain; polyubiquitin binding may activate the ATPase p97 to pull the polypeptide substrate out of the membrane.
