The Outer Retinal Membrane Protein 1 Could Inhibit Lung Cancer Progression as a Tumor Suppressor.

ABSTRACT: Some related reports indicate that the outer retinal membrane protein 1 (ROM1) functions importantly in the regulation of the biological process of tumor. Nevertheless, studies towards the role of ROM1 in lung cancer are few. Here, our data demonstrated that ROM1 displayed a relation with lung cancer tumorigenesis and development. In the Tumor Genome Atlas (TCGA) cohort, reduced ROM1 level was observed in lung cancer tissues, instead of normal tissues. After bioinformatics analysis, the data revealed that ROM1 level was associated with the tumor stage. Additional results indicated that highly expressed ROM1 exhibited a positive correlation with the overall survival rate, and ROM1 was probably a promising prognostic biomarker of lung cancer. Additionally, our results indicated that knocking out ROM1 could promote cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. Our data conclusively demonstrated that ROM1 modulated lung cancer tumorigenesis and development, as a prognosis and treatment biomarker.

Project description:Several antibacterial compounds have recently been discovered that potentially inhibit the activity of BamA, an essential subunit of a heterooligomer (the barrel assembly machinery or BAM) that assembles outer membrane proteins (OMPs) in Gram-negative bacteria, but their mode of action is unclear. To address this issue, we examined the effect of three inhibitors on the biogenesis of a model E. coli OMP (EspP) in vivo. We found that darobactin potently inhibited the interaction of a conserved C-terminal sequence motif (the "β signal") with BamA, but had no effect on assembly if added at a postbinding stage. In contrast, Polyphor peptide 7 and MRL-494 inhibited both binding and at least one later step of assembly. Taken together with previous studies that analyzed the binding of darobactin and Polyphor peptide 7 to BamA in vitro, our results strongly suggest that the two compounds inhibit BAM function by distinct competitive and allosteric mechanisms. In addition to providing insights into the properties of the antibacterial compounds, our results also provide direct experimental evidence that supports a model in which the binding of the β signal to BamA initiates the membrane insertion of OMPs. IMPORTANCE There is a clear need to develop novel broad-spectrum antibiotics to address the global problem of antimicrobial resistance. Multiple compounds that have strong antibacterial activity have recently been described that appear to inhibit the activity of the barrel assembly machinery (BAM), an essential complex that catalyzes the assembly (i.e., folding and membrane insertion) of outer membrane proteins (OMPs) in all Gram-negative bacteria. We analyzed the effects of three of these compounds on OMP biogenesis in vivo and found that they inhibited different stages of the assembly process. Because these compounds have distinct modes of action, they can be used in combination to reduce the emergence of resistant strains. As a corollary, we obtained evidence that these compounds will be valuable tools in future studies on BAM function.
