Poly-ADP-ribosylation drives loss of protein homeostasis in ATM and Mre11 deficiency.

ABSTRACT: Loss of the ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) kinase causes cerebellum-specific neurodegeneration in humans. We previously demonstrated that deficiency in ATM activation via oxidative stress generates insoluble protein aggregates in human cells, reminiscent of protein dysfunction in common neurodegenerative disorders. Here, we show that this process is driven by poly-ADP-ribose polymerases (PARPs) and that the insoluble protein species arise from intrinsically disordered proteins associating with PAR-associated genomic sites in ATM-deficient cells. The lesions implicated in this process are single-strand DNA breaks dependent on reactive oxygen species, transcription, and R-loops. Human cells expressing Mre11 A-T-like disorder mutants also show PARP-dependent aggregation identical to ATM deficiency. Lastly, analysis of A-T patient cerebellum samples shows widespread protein aggregation as well as loss of proteins known to be critical in human spinocerebellar ataxias that is not observed in neocortex tissues. These results provide a hypothesis accounting for loss of protein integrity and cerebellum function in A-T.

Project description:We have performed bioinformatic approaches to identify the level of enrichment between gene expression profiles characterizing MSI tumors and gene changes induced in vitro by the PARP-1 inhibitor Phenanthridinone and others using the Connectivity Map tool. In a first step, we have anyzed the expression of 300 colorectal cancers from the MECC study and generated a gene expression signature by microsatellite status. The criteria followed for selection of probe sets and detailed lists to be submitted subsequently to the Connectivity Map have been published previously by us in Clinical Cancer Research in 2009. In a second step, once we observed that deficiency in MRE11 exist among MSI tumors, our interest was focused on assessing if the homologous recombination pathway showed evidence of deregulation in MSI tumors. Therefore, we examined the expression levels of those genes integrated in the KEGG pathway hsa03440 using the previously generated gene expression data set. The dataset generated from our samples included a total of 300 colorectal fresh frozen tumors collected from the MECC study and were analyzed in two batches. The first batch was hybridized to the Affymetrix U133A chip and the second one to U133 Plus 2.0 (Supplementary Table S3). The final list of probe sets defining gene expression of MSI-H compared to MSS tumors was selected based on the strength of multiplicity adjusted P-values (cut-off P-value of < 0.001) and ratio of mean expression values across the two groups (cut-off Fold-change >1.3 and <0.7). It contained 442 upregulated and 480 downregulated probe sets. Then, MSI-H tumors present with changes in gene expression related to the homologous recombination pathway. Therefore, we examined the expression levels of those genes integrated in the KEGG pathway hsa03440 using the same data set. A total of 14 genes out of 30 were significantly differentially expressed in MSI-H compared to MSS tumors (Multiplicity adjusted Benjamini-Hochberg P-value<0.05). MRE11 and RAD50 probe sets showed a lower expression in MSI-H tumors and simultaneously other probe sets such as PARP-1 were significantly upregulated, probably secondary to the deficiency in the MRN complex proteins. This data provides evidence of significant differential expression of the homologous recombination pathway in MSI tumors.

Project description:UNLABELLED:ADP-ribosylation is a posttranslational protein modification in which ADP-ribose is transferred from NAD(+) to specific acceptors to regulate a wide variety of cellular processes. The macro domain is an ancient and highly evolutionarily conserved protein domain widely distributed throughout all kingdoms of life, including viruses. The human TARG1/C6orf130, MacroD1, and MacroD2 proteins can reverse ADP-ribosylation by acting on ADP-ribosylated substrates through the hydrolytic activity of their macro domains. Here, we report that the macro domain from hepatitis E virus (HEV) serves as an ADP-ribose-protein hydrolase for mono-ADP-ribose (MAR) and poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) chain removal (de-MARylation and de-PARylation, respectively) from mono- and poly(ADP)-ribosylated proteins, respectively. The presence of the HEV helicase in cis dramatically increases the binding of the macro domain to poly(ADP-ribose) and stimulates the de-PARylation activity. Abrogation of the latter dramatically decreases replication of an HEV subgenomic replicon. The de-MARylation activity is present in all three pathogenic positive-sense, single-stranded RNA [(+)ssRNA] virus families which carry a macro domain: Coronaviridae (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus and human coronavirus 229E), Togaviridae (Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus), and Hepeviridae (HEV), indicating that it might be a significant tropism and/or pathogenic determinant. IMPORTANCE:Protein ADP-ribosylation is a covalent posttranslational modification regulating cellular protein activities in a dynamic fashion to modulate and coordinate a variety of cellular processes. Three viral families, Coronaviridae, Togaviridae, and Hepeviridae, possess macro domains embedded in their polyproteins. Here, we show that viral macro domains reverse cellular ADP-ribosylation, potentially cutting the signal of a viral infection in the cell. Various poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases which are notorious guardians of cellular integrity are demodified by macro domains from members of these virus families. In the case of hepatitis E virus, the adjacent viral helicase domain dramatically increases the binding of the macro domain to PAR and simulates the demodification activity.
