CDK5RAP3 is activated by master TFs and regulates ER-Phagy in neuroblastoma

ABSTRACT: Cyclin-dependent kinase 5 regulatory subunit associated protein 3(CDK5RAP3) is regulated by master TFs in neuroblastoma, and its functions in neuroblastoma are yet unclear. Herein, we observed a significantly elevated CDK5RAP3 expression level in neuroblastoma, which was associated with a poor prognosis in patients. CDK5RAP3 promotes the growth of neuroblastoma cells both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, defective CDK5RAP3 interferes with UFMylation system, thereby triggering endoplasmic reticulum(ER)-Phagy. Additionally, we provide evidence that CDK5RAP3 maintains stability of MEIS2, a master TF in neuroblastoma, and in turn contributes high expression of CDK5RAP3. Overall, our findings shed light on the molecular mechanisms through which CDK5RAP3 promotes tumor progression and suggest that its inhibition may represent a novel therapeutic strategy in neuroblastoma.

LC-MS/MS analysis of ribosome UFMylation in vitro

Project description:UFMylation, is a Ubiquitin-like modification occurring on RPL26, a ribosomal subunit, upon ribosome stalling at the ER membrane. This modification is achieved by a pool of enzymes commonly referred to as E1-activating, E2-conjugating and E3-ligase enzymes. The UFM1 E3 ligase comprises of three proteins: UFL1, UFBP1 and CDK5RAP3, referred to as UFM1 Ribosome E3 Ligase (UREL) complex. While UFL1 and UFBP1 are sufficient for E3 ligase activity in vitro, CDK5RAP3 is indispensable for ribosome UFMylation in vivo. In this work, we characterize in vitro UFMylation reaction of purified 60S ribosomes in the presence and absence of CDK5RAP3 using LC-MS/MS. Specifically, we analyse sites of UFMylation, linkage type and quantify monoUFMylation and diUFMylation on RPL26. Interestingly, we find UFMylation to occur on a specific lysine residue, K134, in the presence of UFL1/UFBP1 alone and in complex with CDK5RAP3. In addition, we also provide quantitative information on relative abundances of RPL26 mono- and di-UFMylation under these conditions.

CDK5RAP3 regulates hepatocyte differentiation in human

Project description:CDK5RAP3, an UFL1 adaptor for UFMylation, is crucial for liver development in mouse. However, the function of CDK5RAP3 in human hepatocyte differentiation remains unclear. The stepwise generation of hepatocyte-like cells derived from human embryonic cells simulates human hepatocyte differentiation in vitro. Here, the human embryonic cells were conducted to differentiate into hepatocytes and ScRNA-Seq analysis was performed to elucidate the molecular mechanism of CDK5RAP3 in human liver development. We found CDK5RAP3 was important for human hepatocytes differentiation. The CDK5RAP3 deficiency upregulated ER stress in hepatic-endoderm stage, and impaired ribosome homeostasis in mature hepatocytes.

Occupancy profiling of HAND2, MEIS2 and TCF4 by CUT&Tag from Neuroblastoma cells

Project description:HAND2, MEIS2 and TCF4 are master transcription factors (TFs) in neuroblastoma and create an interconnected core regulatory circuitry (CRC) by directly occupying each other's and their own super-enhancers (SEs), which leads to high levels of each TF expression inside the CRC. Additionally, CRC TFs cooperatively co-occupy the same SE components, which promotes the expression of genes involved in cell identity and cell-type-specific activities. Super-enhancer-mediated CRC enriched at key oncogenes in neuroblastoma. In the present study, CUT&Tag (Cleavage Under Targets and Tagmentation) analysis was performed to explore the target of HAND2, MEIS2 and TCF4 in NB cells.

Gene expression profiling of human neuroblastoma BE(2)-C cells with MEIS2 depletion

Project description:MEIS2 has an important role in development and organogenesis, and is implicated in the pathogenesis of human cancer. The molecular basis of MEIS2 action in tumorigenesis is not clear. Here, we show that MEIS2 is highly expressed in human neuroblastoma cell lines and is required for neuroblastoma cell survival and proliferation. Depletion of MEIS2 in neuroblastoma cells leads to M phase arrest and mitotic catastrophe, whereas ectopic expression of MEIS2 markedly enhances neuroblastoma cell proliferation, anchorage-independent growth, and tumorigenicity. Gene expression profiling reveals an essential role of MEIS2 in maintaining the expression of a large number of late cell cycle genes, including those required for DNA replication, G2-M checkpoint control and M phase progression. Importantly, we identify MEIS2 as a transcription activator of the MuvB-BMYB-FOXM1 complex that functions as a master regulator of mitotic gene expression. Further, we show that FOXM1 is a direct target gene of MEIS2 and is required for MEIS2 to upregulate mitotic genes. These findings link a development gene to the control of cell cycle progression and suggest that high MEIS2 expression is a molecular mechanism for high expression of mitotic genes that is commonly observed in cancers of poor prognosis. Affymetrix microarray assays were performed according to the manufacturer's directions on total RNA isolated from three independent samples of BE(2)-C cells infected with lentiviruses expressing either shGFP or shMEIS2-43 for 48 hours.

CDK5RAP3, a UFL1 substrate adaptor, is critical for liver development

Project description:Protein modification by ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like proteins (UBLs) regulates numerous biological functions. The UFM1 system, a novel UBL conjugation system, is implicated in mouse development and hematopoiesis. However, its broad biological functions and working mechanisms remain largely elusive. CDK5RAP3, a possible ufmylation substrate, is essential for epiboly and gastrulation in zebrafish. Herein, we report a crucial role of CDK5RAP3 in liver development and hepatic functions. Cdk5rap3 knockout mice displayed prenatal lethality with severe liver hypoplasia, as characterized by delayed proliferation and compromised differentiation. Hepatocyte-specific Cdk5rap3 knockout mice suffered post-weaning lethality, owing to serious hypoglycemia and impaired lipid metabolism. Depletion of CDK5RAP3 triggered endoplasmic reticulum stress and activated unfolded protein responses in hepatocytes. We detected the in vivo interaction of CDK5RAP3 with UFL1, the defined E3 ligase in ufmylation. Notably, loss of CDK5RAP3 altered the ufmylation profile in liver cells, suggesting that CDK5RAP3 serves as a novel substrate adaptor for this UBL modification. Collectively, our study identifies CDK5RAP3 as an important regulator of ufmylation and suggests the involvement of ufmylation in mammalian development.

Mechanism of 60S ribosomal subunit recognition and UFMylation by the UFM1 E3 ligase complex

Project description:During co-translational translocation at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), ribosomes can stall and become covalently modified with the ubiquitin-like protein UFM1 on the 60S ribosomal subunit RPL26 (uL24). This process, known as UFMylation, is mediated by the UFM1 Ribosome E3 Ligase (UREL) complex, comprised of UFL1, UFBP1, and CDK5RAP3. However, the functional consequences of UFMylation and catalytic mechanisms of UREL are unknown. Here, we present crosslinking-mass spectrometry (XL-MS) data of UREL bound to 60S ribosomes.

Transcription Factor Activating Protein 4 is synthetically lethal and a master regulator of MYCN-amplified neuroblastoma

Project description:Despite the identification of MYCN amplification as an adverse prognostic marker in neuroblastoma, MYCN inhibitors have yet to be developed. Here, by integrating evidence from a whole genome shRNA library screen and the computational inference of master regulator proteins, we identify Transcription Factor Activating Protein 4 (TFAP4) as a critical effector of MYCN amplification in neuroblastoma, providing a novel synthetic lethal target. We demonstrate that TFAP4 is a direct target of MYCN in neuroblastoma cells, and that its expression and activity strongly negatively correlate with neuroblastoma patient survival. Silencing TFAP4 selectively inhibits MYCN-amplified neuroblastoma cell growth both in vitro and in vivo, in xenograft mouse models. Mechanistically, silencing TFAP4 induces neuroblastoma differentiation, as evidenced by increased neurite outgrowth and up-regulation of neuronal markers. Taken together, our results demonstrate that TFAP4 is a master regulator of MYCN-amplified neuroblastoma and may represent a valuable novel therapeutic target.

Stability of the neuronal fate determinant MEIS2 is controlled by calpain2

Project description:Calpains are non-lysosomal, Ca2+-dependent cysteine proteases, which are associated with various cellular functions but have so far been mainly studied in the context of disease. Their contribution to homeostasis in the healthy organism is still not well understood and their substrates have remained enigmatic in most cases. In the present study, we describe a previously unrecognized role for the calpain protease calpain2 in the regulation of neuronal differentiation of adult neural stem- and progenitor cells through cleavage and elimintation of the neuronal fate determinant MEIS2. Mass spectrometry analysis was performed on immunoprecipitated MEIS2 protein to identify phosphory¬lated residues in MEIS2 and on immunoprecipitated MEIS2 incubated with native porcine calpain2 to map calpain2-induced cleavage sites in the protein.
