Structural basis for nucleolin recognition of MYC promoter G-quadruplex

ABSTRACT: The MYC oncogene promoter G-quadruplex (MycG4) regulates transcription and is a prevalent G4 locus in immortal cells. Nucleolin, a major MycG4-binding protein, exhibits greater affinity for MycG4 than for nucleolin recognition element (NRE) RNA. Nucleolin's four RNA binding domains (RBDs) are essential for high-affinity MycG4 binding. We present the 2.6-angstrom crystal structure of the nucleolin-MycG4 complex, revealing a folded parallel three-tetrad G-quadruplex with two coordinating potassium ions (K+), interacting with RBD1, RBD2, and Linker12 through its 6-nucleotide (nt) central loop and 5' flanking region. RBD3 and RBD4 bind MycG4's 1-nt loops as demonstrated by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Cleavage under targets and tagmentation sequencing confirmed nucleolin's binding to MycG4 in cells. Our results revealed a G4 conformation-based recognition by a regulating protein through multivalent interactions, suggesting that G4s are nucleolin's primary cellular substrates, indicating G4 epigenetic transcriptional regulation and helping G4-targeted drug discovery.

Nucleolin uses its RBD2 domain to recognize long-loop G-Quadruplexes from human minisatellite CEB25

Project description:We investigated herein the interaction between nucleolin (NCL) and a set of G4 sequences derived from the CEB25 human minisatellite which adopt a parallel topology while differing by the length of the central loop (from 9nt to1nt). It is revealed that NCL strongly binds to long-loop (9-5 nt) G4 whilst interacting weakly with the shorter variants (loop < 3nt). Photocrosslinking experiments using 5-bromouracil (BrdU) modified sequences further confirmed the loop-length dependency thereby indicating that the CEB25-WT (9nt) is the best G4 substrate. Quantitative proteomic analysis (LC-MS/MS) of the photocrosslinking product(s) obtained with NCL bound to this sequence enabled the identification of one contact site within the 9nt loop. The protein fragment identified is located in the helix of the RBD2 domain of NCL, shedding light on the role of this structural element in the G4-loop recognition. Then, the ability of a panel of benchmark G4 ligands to prevent the NCL/G4 interaction was explored. It was found that only the most potent ligand PhenDC3 is able to inhibit NCL binding, thereby suggesting that the terminal guanine quartet is also a strong determinant of G4 recognition, putatively through interaction with the RGG domain. This study puts forward the molecular mechanism by which NCL recognizes G4-containing long loops and leads to propose a model implying a concerted action of RBD2 and RGG domains to achieve specific G4 recognition via a dual loop-quartet interaction.

Custom DNA microarrays reveal diverse binding preferences of proteins and small molecules to thousands of G-quadruplexes [design 3]

Project description:Single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) containing guanine repeats can form G-quadruplex (G4) structures. While cellular proteins and small molecules can bind G4s, it has been difficult to broadly assess their sequence specificity. Here, we use custom DNA microarrays to examine the binding specificities of proteins, small molecules, and antibodies across ~15,000 G4 structures. Molecules used include fluorescently labeled pyridostatin (Cy5-PDS, a small molecule), BG4 (Cy5-BG4, a G4-specific antibody), and eight proteins (GST-tagged nucleolin, IGF2, CNBP, FANCJ, PIF1, BLM, DHX36, and WRN). Cy5-PDS and Cy5-BG4 selectively bind sequences known to form G4s, confirming their formation on the microarrays. Cy5-PDS binding decreased when G4 formation was inhibited using lithium or when ssDNA features on the microarray were made double-stranded. Similar conditions inhibited the binding of all other molecules except for CNBP and PIF1. We report that proteins have different G4 binding preferences suggesting unique cellular functions. Finally, competition experiments are used to assess the binding of an unlabeled small molecule, revealing the structural features in the G4 required to achieve selectivity. These data demonstrate that the microarray platform can be used to assess the binding preferences of molecules to G4s on a broad scale, helping to understand the properties that govern molecular recognition.

Identification of G-quadruplex-interacting proteins in living cells using an artificial G4-targeting biotin ligase

Project description:G-quadruplexes (G4s) are noncanonical nucleic acid structures pivotal to cellular processes and disease pathways. Deciphering G4-interacting proteins is imperative for unraveling G4's biological significance. In this study, we developed a G4-targeting biotin ligase named G4PID, meticulously assessing its binding affinity and specificity both in vitro and in vivo. Capitalizing on G4PID, we devised a tailored approach termed G-quadruplex-interacting proteins specific biotin-ligation procedure (PLGPB) to precisely profile G4-interacting proteins.

G-quadruplex structures moulds the DNA methylome

Project description:Control of DNA methylation level is critical for gene regulation, and the factors that govern hypomethylation at CpG islands (CGIs) are still being uncovered. Here, we provide evidence that G-quadruplex (G4) DNA secondary structures are genomic features that influence methylation at CGIs. We show that the presence of G4 structure is tightly associated with CGI hypomethylation. Surprisingly, we find that these G4 sites are enriched for DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) occupancy, which is consistent with our biophysical observations that DNMT1 exhibits higher binding affinity for G4s as compared to duplex, hemi-methylated or single-stranded DNA. The biochemical assays also show that the G4 structure itself, rather than sequence, inhibits DNMT1 enzymatic activity. Based on these data, we propose that G4 formation sequesters DNMT1 thereby protecting certain CGIs from methylation and inhibiting local methylation.

G4 quadruplex landscape and its regulation revealed by a new antibody capture method

Project description:Currently, the identification of G4 quadruplexes in vivo depends on a published and widely used G4-ChIP protocol (PMID: 29470465) that uses the anti-G4 antibody to captures the quadruplexes like regular chromatin. This method is challenged by some false positives and false negatives in G4-quadruplex capture. We have developed an antibody capture G4-ChIP (AbC G4-ChIP) method to overcome these challenges. The AbC G4-ChIP achieves (i) minimized in vitro artifacts during the incubation steps, and (ii) capture of G4-quadruplexes which are not protein-bound. We have applied the AbC G4-ChIP to study the regulatory effect of a CGG-repeat binding protein CGGBP1 on G4-quadruplex formation. The AbC G4-ChIP identifies inter-strand G/C-skew as a sequence property associated with CGGBP1-regulated G4-quadruplexes.
