    Abstract RAD51 loading onto chromatin is a key step during the homologous recombination (HR) repair. We recently reported a new mode of RAD51 regulation, which is mediated by TOPORS E3 SUMO ligase and RAD51 SUMOylation. ATM/ATR-induced phosphorylation of TOPORS is necessary for this event, revealing a new role of these master DNA damage response kinases in HR repair.

    Abstract One of the cellular responses to DNA damage is to monitor and execute temporary arrest of RNA synthesis at chromatin lesions. The Polycomb silencer BMI1 is a well-known contributor to this process. We recently described a new mode of BMI1-mediated transcription arrest at lesions that involves UBR5 E3 ligase and FACT histone chaperon.

    Abstract Proper regulation of replication fork progression is important for genomic maintenance. Subverting the transcription-induced conflicts is crucial in preserving the integrity of replication forks. Various chromatin remodelers, such as histone chaperone and histone deacetylases are known to modulate replication stress, but how these factors are organized or collaborate are not well understood. Here we found a new role of the OTUD5 deubiquitinase in limiting replication stress. We found that OTUD5 is recruited to replication forks, and its depletion causes replication fork stress. Through its C-terminal disordered tail, OTUD5 assembles a complex containing FACT, HDAC1 and HDAC2 at replication forks. A cell line engineered to specifically uncouple FACT interaction with OTUD5 exhibits increases in FACT loading onto chromatin, R-loop formation, and replication fork stress. OTUD5 mediates these processes by recruiting and stabilizing HDAC1 and HDAC2, which decreases H4K16 acetylation and FACT recruitment. Finally, proteomic analysis revealed that the cells with deficient OTUD5-FACT interaction activates the Fanconi Anemia pathway for survival. Altogether, this study identified a new interaction network among OTUD5-FACT-HDAC1/2 that limits transcription-induced replication stress.

    Abstract Serine/arginine-rich splicing factor 3 (SRSF3) is an RNA binding protein that most often regulates gene expression at the splicing level. Although the role of SRSF3 in mRNA splicing in the nucleus is well known, its splicing-independent role outside of the nucleus is poorly understood. Here, we found that SRSF3 exerts a translational control of p21 mRNA. Depletion of SRSF3 induces cellular senescence and increases the expression of p21 independent of p53. Consistent with the expression patterns of SRSF3 and p21 mRNA in the TCGA database, SRSF3 knockdown increases the p21 mRNA level and its translation efficiency as well. SRSF3 physically associates with the 3'UTR region of p21 mRNA and the translational initiation factor, eIF4A1. Our study proposes a model in which SRSF3 regulates translation by interacting with eIF4A1 at the 3'UTR region of p21 mRNA. We also found that SRSF3 localizes to the cytoplasmic RNA granule along with eIF4A1, which may assist in translational repression therein. Thus, our results provide a new mode of regulation for p21 expression, a crucial regulator of the cell cycle and senescence, which occurs at the translational level and involves SRSF3.

    Abstract Mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of high-grade serous epithelial ovarian cancers (HGSOC) are not yet well defined although key precursor cells have been identified (including fimbriated fallopian tube epithelium, FTSECs). Since iron is elevated in endometriotic cysts and the pelvic cavity, it is suggested that this source of redox-active iron may contribute to ovarian cancer pathogenesis. Specifically, sources of nontransferrin-bound iron (NTBI) within the pelvic cavity could arise from ovulation, retrograde menstruation, follicular fluid, or iron overload conditions (i.e., hemochromatosis). Herein, we investigated the cellular response of p53-inactivated and telomerase-expressing (immortalized) FTSECs (Pax8

    Abstract Sponges are at the forefront of marine natural product research. In the deep sea, extreme conditions have driven secondary metabolite pathway evolution such that we might expect deep-sea sponges to yield a broad range of unique natural products. Here, we investigate the chemodiversity of a deep-sea tetractinellid sponge, Characella pachastrelloides , collected from ~800 m depth in Irish waters. First, we analyzed the MS/MS data obtained from fractions of this sponge on the GNPS public online platform to guide our exploration of its chemodiversity. Novel glycolipopeptides named characellides were previously isolated from the sponge and herein cyanocobalamin, a manufactured form of vitamin B 12 , not previously found in nature, was isolated in a large amount. We also identified several poecillastrins from the molecular network, a class of polyketide known to exhibit cytotoxicity. Light sensitivity prevented the isolation and characterization of these polyketides, but their presence was confirmed by characteristic NMR and MS signals. Finally, we isolated the new betaine 6-methylhercynine, which contains a unique methylation at C-2 of the imidazole ring. This compound showed potent cytotoxicity towards against HeLa (cervical cancer) cells.

    Abstract Both proteolytic and nonproteolytic functions of ubiquitination are essential regulatory mechanisms for promoting DNA repair and the DNA damage response in mammalian cells. Deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs) have emerged as key players in the maintenance of genome stability. In this minireview, we discuss the recent findings on human DUBs that participate in genome maintenance, with a focus on the role of DUBs in the modulation of DNA repair and DNA damage signaling.
