Abnormal Proliferation02:23

Abnormal Proliferation

4.0K
Under normal conditions, most adult cells remain in a non-proliferative state unless stimulated by internal or external factors to replace lost cells. Abnormal cell proliferation is a condition in which the cell's growth exceeds and is uncoordinated with normal cells. In such situations, cell division persists in the same excessive manner even after cessation of the stimuli, leading to persistent tumors. The tumor arises from the damaged cells that replicate to pass the damage to the...

Anaphase Promoting Complex00:50

Anaphase Promoting Complex

2.5K
The stepwise destruction of specific proteins is necessary for the progression and completion of the cell cycle. Such proteins are ubiquitinated by ubiquitin ligases and then subsequently destroyed by the proteasome. The SCF (Skp1/Cullin/F-box) and the anaphase-promoting complex (APC) are two important ubiquitin ligases involved in cell cycle progression. While SCF is active throughout the cell cycle, APC gets activated during metaphase to anaphase transition. Cdc20 or Cdh1 binds to APC and...

Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells01:06

Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells

4.7K
Stem cells are undifferentiated cells that divide and produce different cell types. Ordinarily, cells that have differentiated into a specific cell type are terminally differentiated; however, scientists have found a way to reprogram these mature cells so that they dedifferentiate and return to an unspecialized, proliferative state. These cells are pluripotent like embryonic stem cells—able to produce all cell types—and are called induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs).

Inhibition of Cdk Activity02:34

Inhibition of Cdk Activity

4.8K
The orderly progression of the cell cycle depends on the activation of Cdk protein by binding to its cyclin partner. However, the cell cycle must be restricted when undergoing abnormal changes. Most cancers correlate to the deregulated cell cycle, and since Cdks are a central component of the cell cycle, Cdk inhibitors are extensively studied to develop anticancer agents. For instance, cyclin D associates with several Cdks, such as Cdk 4/6, to form an active complex. The cyclin D-Cdk4/6 complex...

The Intrinsic Apoptotic Pathway01:31

The Intrinsic Apoptotic Pathway

6.1K
Internal cellular stress, such as cellular injury or hypoxia, triggers intrinsic apoptosis. The B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) family of proteins are the primary regulators of the intrinsic apoptotic pathway. For example, during DNA damage, checkpoint proteins, such as Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated (ATM protein) and Checkpoints Factor-2 (Chk2) proteins, are activated. These proteins phosphorylate p53 which further activates pro-apoptotic proteins, such as Bax, Bak, PUMA, and Noxa, and inhibits...

The Retinoblastoma Gene01:20

The Retinoblastoma Gene

3.7K
Tumor suppressor genes are normal genes that can slow down cell division, repair DNA mistakes, or program the cells for apoptosis in case of irreparable damage. Hence, they play an essential role in preventing the proliferation of damaged cells.
The first-ever tumor suppressor gene called Rb was identified in retinoblastoma - a rare eye tumor in children. In inherited forms of the disease, a child inherits one defective copy of the Rb gene, which predisposes them to retinoblastoma. However,...

Area of Science:

  • Molecular Biology
  • Cell Biology
  • Cancer Research

Background:

  • YES-associated protein (YAP) is a key transcription coactivator and oncogene.
  • YAP's function shifts under DNA damage, activating pro-apoptotic genes with p73.
  • This switch is mediated by c-Abl (Abelson murine leukemia viral oncogene) through YAP phosphorylation at Y357 (pY357).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate if c-Abl regulates the YAP-TEAD (transcriptional enhancer activator domain) functional module.
  • To determine the role of YAP Y357 phosphorylation in YAP's oncogenic functions.

Main Methods:

  • Investigated the effect of DNA damage and c-Abl activation on YAP-TEAD transcription.
  • Analyzed TEAD1 phosphorylation and YAP-TEAD complex integrity.
  • Utilized phosphomimetic YAP Y357E and Y357F mutations to assess TEAD coactivation.
  • Assessed YAP's role in cell transformation, migration, anchorage-independent growth, and EMT in MCF10A cells.

Main Results:

  • DNA damage, via c-Abl, significantly reduced YAP-TEAD-induced transcription.
  • c-Abl counteracts YAP's oncogenic transformation by disrupting the YAP-TEAD transcriptional program.
  • YAP Y357E mutation, unlike Y357F, impaired TEAD coactivation and YAP's oncogenic activities.
  • YAP phosphorylation at Y357 (pY357) was shown to abolish YAP's TEAD transcription activation function.

Conclusions:

  • YAP phosphorylation at Y357 by c-Abl inactivates its oncogenic function.
  • YAP Y357 phosphorylation plays a critical role in cell-fate decisions.
  • This mechanism highlights how YAP's function is regulated in response to DNA damage.
