Miller VikaNachmias Boaz - Aged hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) show diminished capacity of self-renewal, skewed lineage output and compromised proteostasis. Ubiquitin proteasomal systems are critical for maintaining protein homeostasis. We show that the levels of Ube2g1, a E2 ubiquitinconjugating enzyme likely involved in clonal selection of HSCs, was elevated in aged murine and human HSCs. We hypothesized that elevated levels of Ube2g1 causally contribute to hematopoietic system aging. Elevated levels of Ube2g1 in young murine HSCs resulted in increased myeloid-to-lymphoid ratio and reduced naïve T-cells, both known hematopoietic aging hallmarks. Interestingly, the ubiquitination function of Ube2g1 didn't primarily account for the observed phenotypes. Elevated levels of Ube2g1 affected global tyrosine phosphorylation, mediated through a Ube2g1-Shp2 axis, which correlated with impaired Tcell development and reduced HSC function. Our work identifies a novel connection between proteins involved in the regulation of ubiquitination and phosphorylation in HSCs that affect phenotypes linked to aging of HSCs. - Source: PubMed

This study preliminarily explored circular polyribonucleotide nucleotidyltransferase 1 (circ-PNPT1) expression in placental tissues and serum of GDM patients and its role in regulating the miR-144-3p/UBE2G1 axis to affect endothelial dysfunction in GDM. Twenty GDM patients and 20 pregnant women with normal glucose tolerance were enrolled. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were cultured with high glucose (HG) to establish an in vitro GDM model, then treated with short hairpin-circ-PNPT1 and a lentiviral empty plasmid. Circ-PNPT1 levels, HUVEC viability, endothelial function, and oxidative damage were assessed using RT-qPCR tube formation, CCK-8, flow cytometry, and Transwell assays, respectively. Normally cultured and HG-cultured HUVEC samples underwent small RNA sequencing to analyze differentially expressed miRNAs. The possible miRNAs and mRNAs downstream of circ-PNPT1 were screened using bioinformatics and verified using RT-qPCR, dual luciferase reporter assay, and Ago2-RIP. GDM patients exhibited highly expressed circ-PNPT1 and UBE2G1, and weakly expressed miR-144-3p in placental tissues and serum. In vitro, HG-treated HUVECs displayed highly expressed circ-PNPT1 and cellular dysfunction, as evidenced by reduced cell survival, enhanced apoptosis, decreased cell migration and angiogenesis, an elevated MDA level, and downregulated SOD and GSH-Px levels. Circ-PNPT1 knockdown alleviated HG-induced HUVEC dysfunction. circ-PNPT1 might target and bind miR-144-3p; miR-144-3p might target and bind UBE2G1. Additionally, circ-PNPT1 might act as a competing endogenous RNA for miR-144-3p to regulate UBE2G1 expression in HG-induced HUVECs. Taken together, circ-PNPT1 modulates HG-induced HUVEC dysfunction via the miR-144-3p/UBE2G1 axis. - Source: PubMed
Wang JingyiTuluhong MinireZhu Qiying - D-site binding protein, DBP, is a clock-controlled transcription factor and drives daily rhythms of physiological processes through the regulation of an array of genes harboring a DNA binding motif, D-box. DBP protein levels show a circadian oscillation with an extremely robust peak/trough ratio, but it is elusive how the temporal pattern is regulated by post-translational regulation. In this study, we show that DBP protein levels are down-regulated by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. Analysis using 19 dominant-negative forms of E2 enzymes have revealed that UBE2G1 and UBE2T mediate the degradation of DBP. A proteomic analysis of DBP-interacting proteins and database screening have identified Tumor necrosis factor Receptor-Associated Factor 7 (TRAF7), a RING-type E3 ligase, that forms a complex with UBE2G1 and/or UBE2T. Ubiquitination analysis have revealed that TRAF7 enhances K48-linked polyubiquitination of DBP in cultured cells. Overexpression of TRAF7 down-regulates DBP protein level, while knockdown of TRAF7 up-regulates DBP in cultured cells. Knockout of TRAF7 in NIH3T3 cells have revealed that TRAF7 mediates the time-of-the-day-dependent regulation of DBP levels. Furthermore, TRAF7 has a period-shortening effect on the cellular clock. Together, TRAF7 plays an important role in circadian clock oscillation through destabilization of DBP. - Source: PubMed

APA is involved in lymphocyte activation; however, its role throughout the entire differentiation trajectory remains elusive. Here, we analyzed single-cell 3'-end transcriptome data from healthy subjects to construct a dynamic-APA landscape from hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) to terminally differentiated lymphocytes. This analysis covered 19973 cells of 12 clusters from five lineages (B cells, CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, natural killer cells, and plasmacytoid dendritic cells). A total of 2364 genes exhibited differential 3'-untranslated region (3'UTR) PAS usage, and 3021 genes displayed differential intronic cleavage during lymphoid differentiation. We observed a global trend of 3'UTR shortening during lymphoid differentiation. Nevertheless, specific events of both 3'UTR shortening and lengthening were also identified within each cluster. The APA patterns delineated three differentiation stages: HSPCs, precursor cells, and mature cells. Moreover, we demonstrated that the conversion of naïve T cells to memory T cells was accompanied by dynamic APA in transcription factor-encoding genes (TCF7 and NFATC2IP), immune function-related genes (BCL2, CD5, CD28, GOLT1B, and TMEM59), and protein ubiquitination-related genes (UBE2G1, YPEL5, and SUMO3). These findings expand our understanding of the underlying molecular mechanisms of APA and facilitate studies on the regulatory role of APA in lymphoid hematopoiesis. - Source: PubMed
