RESUMO
Nuclear actin-based movements support DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair. However, molecular determinants that promote filamentous actin (F-actin) formation on the damaged chromatin remain undefined. Here we describe the DYRK1A kinase as a nuclear activity that promotes local F-actin assembly to support DSB mobility and repair, accomplished in part by its targeting of actin nucleator spire homolog 1 (Spir1). Indeed, perturbing DYRK1A-dependent phosphorylation of S482 mis-regulated Spir1 accumulation at damaged-modified chromatin, and led to compromised DSB-associated actin polymerization and attenuated DNA repair. Our findings uncover a role of the DYRK1A-Spir1 axis in nuclear actin dynamics during early DSB responses, and highlight the intricate details of nuclear cytoskeletal network in DSB repair and genome stability maintenance.

RESUMO
An engineered SOX17 variant with point mutations within its DNA binding domain termed SOX17FNV is a more potent pluripotency inducer than SOX2, yet the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Although wild-type SOX17 was incapable of inducing pluripotency, SOX17FNV outperformed SOX2 in mouse and human pluripotency reprogramming. In embryonic stem cells, SOX17FNV could replace SOX2 to maintain pluripotency despite considerable sequence differences and upregulated genes expressed in cleavage-stage embryos. Mechanistically, SOX17FNV co-bound OCT4 more cooperatively than SOX2 in the context of the canonical SoxOct DNA element. SOX2, SOX17, and SOX17FNV were all able to bind nucleosome core particles in vitro, which is a prerequisite for pioneer transcription factors. Experiments using purified proteins and in cellular contexts showed that SOX17 variants phase-separated more efficiently than SOX2, suggesting an enhanced ability to self-organise. Systematic deletion analyses showed that the N-terminus of SOX17FNV was dispensable for its reprogramming activity. However, the C-terminus encodes essential domains indicating multivalent interactions that drive transactivation and reprogramming. We defined a minimal SOX17FNV (miniSOX) that can support reprogramming with high activity, reducing the payload of reprogramming cassettes. This study uncovers the mechanisms behind SOX17FNV-induced pluripotency and establishes engineered SOX factors as powerful cell engineering tools.

A facile synthesis of a binuclear AgI complex 2 of a bis(carbone) ligand L and its application as a carbone-transfer agent for the generation of other transition-metal complexes of AuI (3), NiII (4), and PdII (5) is presented. Complex 2 was synthesized through multiple synthetic routes under mild reaction conditions using the tetracationic [LH4][OTf·Cl]2 precursor salt, the dicationic [LH2][OTf]2 ylide salt, and the free ligand L. The first two synthesis routes require no prior isolation of the air-, moisture-, and temperature-sensitive free ligand L, thus affording complex 2 with high yield and purity. Multinuclear NMR techniques, high-resolution mass spectrometry, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis confirmed the identity of complex 2 as a binuclear AgI complex of L with a molecular formula of [L2Ag2][OTf]2 and a 16-membered-ring metallomacrocyclic structure. During the transmetalation reaction with AuI, the binuclear nature of complex 2 remains intact to give analogous complex 3 ([L2Au2][OTf]2). However, the dimeric structure was disrupted upon the carbone-transfer reaction with NiII and PdII, yielding mononuclear C-N-C pincer-type complexes 4 ([LNiCl][OTf]) and 5 ([LPdCl][OTf]), respectively. These results demonstrated the versatile use of complex 2 as a carbone-transfer agent to other transition metals regardless of the type or size of the metals or the geometry they prefer.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Cholesterol plays a vital role in multiple physiological processes. Cellular uptake of cholesterol is mediated primarily through endocytosis of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor. New modifiers of this process remain to be characterized. Particularly, the role of fasting- and CREB-H-induced (FACI) protein in cholesterol homeostasis merits further investigation. METHODS: Interactome profiling by proximity labeling and affinity purification - mass spectrometry was performed. Total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy and confocal immunofluorescence microscopy were used to analyze protein co-localization and interaction. Mutational analysis was carried out to define the domain and residues required for FACI localization and function. Endocytosis was traced by fluorescent cargos. LDL uptake in cultured cells and diet-induced hypercholesterolemia in mice were assessed. RESULTS: FACI interacted with proteins critically involved in clathrin-mediated endocytosis, vesicle trafficking, and membrane cytoskeleton. FACI localized to clathrin-coated pits (CCP) on plasma membranes. FACI contains a conserved DxxxLI motif, which mediates its binding with the adaptor protein 2 (AP2) complex. Disruption of this motif of FACI abolished its CCP localization but didn't affect its association with plasma membrane. Cholesterol was found to facilitate FACI transport from plasma membrane to endocytic recycling compartment in a clathrin- and cytoskeleton-dependent manner. LDL endocytosis was enhanced in FACI-overexpressed AML12 cells but impaired in FACI-depleted HeLa cells. In vivo study indicated that hepatic FACI overexpression alleviated diet-induced hypercholesterolemia in mice. CONCLUSIONS: FACI facilitates LDL endocytosis through its interaction with the AP2 complex.
RESUMO
Stationary points embedded in the derivatives are often critical for a model to be interpretable and may be considered as key features of interest in many applications. We propose a semiparametric Bayesian model to efficiently infer the locations of stationary points of a nonparametric function, which also produces an estimate of the function. We use Gaussian processes as a flexible prior for the underlying function and impose derivative constraints to control the function's shape via conditioning. We develop an inferential strategy that intentionally restricts estimation to the case of at least one stationary point, bypassing possible mis-specifications in the number of stationary points and avoiding the varying dimension problem that often brings in computational complexity. We illustrate the proposed methods using simulations and then apply the method to the estimation of event-related potentials derived from electroencephalography (EEG) signals. We show how the proposed method automatically identifies characteristic components and their latencies at the individual level, which avoids the excessive averaging across subjects that is routinely done in the field to obtain smooth curves. By applying this approach to EEG data collected from younger and older adults during a speech perception task, we are able to demonstrate how the time course of speech perception processes changes with age.

We propose a model-based approach that combines Bayesian variable selection tools, a novel spatial kernel convolution structure, and autoregressive processes for detecting a subject's brain activation at the voxel level in complex-valued functional magnetic resonance imaging (CV-fMRI) data. A computationally efficient Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm for posterior inference is developed by taking advantage of the dimension reduction of the kernel-based structure. The proposed spatiotemporal model leads to more accurate posterior probability activation maps and less false positives than alternative spatial approaches based on Gaussian process models, and other complex-valued models that do not incorporate spatial and/or temporal structure. This is illustrated in the analysis of simulated data and human task-related CV-fMRI data. In addition, we show that complex-valued approaches dominate magnitude-only approaches and that the kernel structure in our proposed model considerably improves sensitivity rates when detecting activation at the voxel level.

Bacteriorhodopsin (BR) is a light-driven outward proton pump found mainly in halophilic archaea. A BR from an archaeon Haloquadratum walsbyi (HwBR) was found to pump protons under more acidic conditions compared with most known BR proteins. The atomic structural study on HwBR unveiled that a pair of hydrogen bonds between the BC and FG loop in its periplasmic region may be a factor in such improved pumping capability. Here, we further investigated the retinal-binding pocket of HwBR and found that Trp94 contributes to the higher acid tolerance. Through single mutations in a BR from Halobacterium salinarum and HwBR, we examined the conserved tryptophan residues in the retinal-binding pocket. Among these residues of HwBR, mutagenesis at Trp94 facing the periplasmic region caused the most significant disruption to optical stability and proton-pumping capability under acidic conditions. The other tryptophan residues of HwBR exerted little impact on both maximum absorption wavelength and pH-dependent proton pumping. Our findings suggest that the residues from Trp94 to the hydrogen bonds at the BC loop confer both optical stability and functionality on the overall protein in low-pH environments.

Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) play a central role in the progression of atherosclerosis, where they switch from a contractile to a synthetic phenotype. Because of their role as risk factors for atherosclerosis, we sought here to systematically study the impact of matrix stiffness and (hemodynamic) pressure on VSMCs. Thereby, we find that pressure and stiffness individually affect the VSMC phenotype. However, only the combination of hypertensive pressure and matrix compliance, and as such mechanical stimuli that are prevalent during atherosclerosis, leads to a full phenotypic switch including the formation of matrix-degrading podosomes. We further analyze the molecular mechanism in stiffness and pressure sensing and identify a regulation through different but overlapping pathways culminating in the regulation of the actin cytoskeleton through cofilin. Together, our data show how different pathological mechanical signals combined but through distinct pathways accelerate a phenotypic switch that will ultimately contribute to atherosclerotic disease progression.

Carbones are divalent carbon(0) species that contain two lone pairs of electrons. Herein, we have prepared the first known stable and isolable free bis-(carbone) pincer framework with a well-defined solid-state structure. This bis-(carbone) ligand is an effective scaffold for forming monometallic (Ni and Pd) and trinuclear heterometallic complexes with Au-Pd-Au, Au-Ni-Au, and Cu-Ni-Cu configurations. Sophisticated quantum-theoretical analyses found that the metal-metal interactions are too weak to play a significant role in upholding these multi-metallic configurations; rather, the four lone pairs of electrons within the bis-(carbone) framework are the main contributors to the stability of the complexes.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND & AIMS: CREB-H is a key liver-enriched transcription factor governing lipid metabolism. Additional targets of CREB-H remain to be identified and characterized. Here, we identified a novel fasting- and CREB-H-induced (FACI) protein that inhibits intestinal lipid absorption and alleviates diet-induced obesity in mice. METHODS: FACI was identified by reanalysis of existing transcriptomic data. Faci-/- mice were generated by clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated 9 (Cas9)-mediated genome engineering. RNA sequencing was performed to identify differentially expressed genes in Faci-/- mice. Lipid accumulation in the villi was assessed by triglyceride measurement and Oil red O staining. In vitro fatty acid uptake assay was performed to verify in vivo findings. RESULTS: FACI expression was enriched in liver and intestine. FACI is a phospholipid-binding protein that localizes to plasma membrane and recycling endosomes. Hepatic transcription of Faci was regulated by not only CREB-H, but also nutrient-responsive transcription factors sterol regulatory element-binding protein 1 (SREBP1), hepatocyte nuclear factor 4α (HNF4α), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator-1α (PGC1α), and CREB, as well as fasting-related cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) signaling. Genetic knockout of Faci in mice showed an increase in intestinal fat absorption. In accordance with this, Faci deficiency aggravated high-fat diet-induced obesity, hyperlipidemia, steatosis, and other obesity-related metabolic dysfunction in mice. CONCLUSIONS: FACI is a novel CREB-H-induced protein. Genetic disruption of Faci in mice showed its inhibitory effect on fat absorption and obesity. Our findings shed light on a new target of CREB-H implicated in lipid homeostasis.

Invadopodia are integrin-mediated adhesions with abundant PI(3,4)P2 However, the functional role of PI(3,4)P2 in adhesion signaling remains unclear. Here, we find that the PI(3,4)P2 biogenesis regulates the integrin endocytosis at invadopodia. PI(3,4)P2 is locally produced by PIK3CA and SHIP2 and is concentrated at the trailing edge of the invadopodium arc. The PI(3,4)P2-rich compartment locally forms small puncta (membrane buds) in a SNX9-dependent manner, recruits dynein activator Hook1 through AKTIP, and rearranges into micrometer-long tubular invaginations (membrane tubes). The uncurving membrane tube extends rapidly, follows the retrograde movement of dynein along microtubule tracks, and disconnects from the plasma membrane. Activated integrin-beta3 is locally internalized through the pathway of PI(3,4)P2-mediated membrane invagination and is then actively recycled. Blockages of PI3K, SHIP2, and SNX9 suppress integrin-beta3 endocytosis, delay adhesion turnover, and impede transwell invasion of MEF-Src and MDA-MB-231 cells. Thus, the production of PI(3,4)P2 promotes invasive cell migration by stimulating the trafficking of integrin receptor at the invadopodium.

In only a few decades, lithium-ion batteries have revolutionized technologies, enabling the proliferation of portable devices and electric vehicles1, with substantial benefits for society. However, the rapid growth in technology has highlighted the ethical and environmental challenges of mining lithium, cobalt and other mineral ore resources, and the issues associated with the safe usage and non-hazardous disposal of batteries2. Only a small fraction of lithium-ion batteries are recycled, further exacerbating global material supply of strategic elements3-5. A potential alternative is to use organic-based redox-active materials6-8 to develop rechargeable batteries that originate from ethically sourced, sustainable materials and enable on-demand deconstruction and reconstruction. Making such batteries is challenging because the active materials must be stable during operation but degradable at end of life. Further, the degradation products should be either environmentally benign or recyclable for reconstruction into a new battery. Here we demonstrate a metal-free, polypeptide-based battery, in which viologens and nitroxide radicals are incorporated as redox-active groups along polypeptide backbones to function as anode and cathode materials, respectively. These redox-active polypeptides perform as active materials that are stable during battery operation and subsequently degrade on demand in acidic conditions to generate amino acids, other building blocks and degradation products. Such a polypeptide-based battery is a first step to addressing the need for alternative chemistries for green and sustainable batteries in a future circular economy.

DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) at ribosomal gene loci trigger inhibition of ribosomal DNA (rDNA) transcription and extensive nucleolar reorganization, including the formation of nucleolar caps where rDNA DSBs engage with canonical DSB signaling and repair factors. While these nucleolar responses underlie maintenance of rDNA stability, the molecular components that drive each of these events remain to be defined. Here we report that full suppression of rRNA synthesis requires the DYRK1B kinase, a nucleolar DSB response that can be uncoupled from ATM-mediated DSB signaling events at the nucleolar periphery. Indeed, by targeting DSBs onto rDNA arrays, we uncovered that chemical inhibition or genetic inactivation of DYRK1B led to sustained nucleolar transcription. Not only does DYRK1B exhibit robust nucleolar accumulation following laser micro-irradiation across cell nuclei, we further showed that DYRK1B is required for rDNA DSB repair and rDNA copy number maintenance, and that DYRK1B-inactivated cells are hypersensitised to DSBs induced at the rDNA arrays. Together, our findings not only identify DYRK1B as a key signaling intermediate that coordinates DSB repair and rDNA transcriptional activities, but also support the idea of specialised DSB responses that operate within the nucleolus to preserve rDNA integrity.

DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) trigger transient pausing of nearby transcription, an emerging ATM-dependent response that suppresses chromosomal instability. We screened a chemical library designed to target the human kinome for new activities that mediate gene silencing on DSB-flanking chromatin, and have uncovered the DYRK1B kinase as an early respondent to DNA damage. We showed that DYRK1B is swiftly and transiently recruited to laser-microirradiated sites, and that genetic inactivation of DYRK1B or its kinase activity attenuated DSB-induced gene silencing and led to compromised DNA repair. Notably, global transcription shutdown alleviated DNA repair defects associated with DYRK1B loss, suggesting that DYRK1B is strictly required for DSB repair on active chromatin. We also found that DYRK1B mediates transcription silencing in part via phosphorylating and enforcing DSB accumulation of the histone methyltransferase EHMT2. Together, our findings unveil the DYRK1B signaling network as a key branch of mammalian DNA damage response circuitries, and establish the DYRK1B-EHMT2 axis as an effector that coordinates DSB repair on transcribed chromatin.

A series of binuclear homo- and heterobimetallic complexes of the general type (PNP)M-[linker]-M(PNP) have been prepared (M = Ni, Pd, Pt; PNP = a diarylamido/bis(phosphine) pincer ligand; -[linker]- = -C≡C-, -C≡CC≡C-, -C≡CC6H4C≡C-). Each (PNP)M site can be oxidized by one electron, and this work reports the investigation of the mixed-valence behavior in terms of the communication between the two redox sites and the degree of the delocalization in the monooxidized cation. The compounds were evaluated using cyclic voltammetry, UV-vis-NIR and EPR spectroscopy, X-ray crystallography, and DFT calculations. The complex with the longest examined linker, (PNP)Ni-C≡CC6H4C≡C-Ni(PNP) (9Ni), exhibited no discernible communication between the redox sites. The homobimetallic complexes (PNP)M-C≡CC≡C-M(PNP) (6M) displayed a lower degree of communication in comparison to the -C≡C- linker analogues (PNP)M-C≡C-M(PNP) (3M). Within each of these two subsets, the relative degree of communication and delocalization was determined to be Pd < Ni ≤ Pt. On the Robin-Day scale, compounds 6M can be assigned class I for M = Pd and class II for M = Ni, Pt. Complex 3Pd also falls into class II, while 3Ni and 3Pt may be viewed as borderline class II/III cases. It is likely that the communication in the Ni systems has the advantage of the smaller size of Ni, resulting in a greater physical proximity of the redox sites, while the 5d metal Pt possesses the greatest ability for orbital interaction with the -C≡C- linker.
RESUMO
Podosomes play crucial roles in macrophage adhesion and migration. Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (WASP; also known as WAS)-mediated actin polymerization is one of the key events initiating podosome formation. Nevertheless, membrane signals to trigger WASP activation at macrophage podosomes remain unclear. Here, we show that phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-trisphosphate [PI(3,4,5)P3] lipids are enriched at the podosome and stably recruit WASP rather than the WASP-5KE mutant. Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit ß (PIK3CB) is spatially located at the podosome core. Inhibition of PIK3CB and overexpression of phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) impede F-actin polymerization of the podosome. PIK3CB activation is regulated by Abl1 and Src family kinases. At the podosome core, Src and Hck promote the phosphorylation of Tyr488 in the consensus Y-x-x-M motif of Abl1, which enables the association of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) regulatory subunits. Knockdown of Abl1 rather than Abl2 suppresses the PI3K/Akt pathway, regardless of Src and Hck activities. Reintroduction of wild-type Abl1 rather than the Abl1-Y488F mutant rescues PI3KR1 recruitment and PI3K activation. When PIK3CB, Abl1 or Src/Hck is suppressed, macrophage podosome formation, matrix degradation and chemotactic migration are inhibited. Thus, Src/Hck-mediated phosphorylation of Abl1 Tyr488 triggers PIK3CB-dependent PI(3,4,5)P3 production and orchestrates the assembly and function of macrophage podosomes.

Integrin receptors orchestrate cell adhesion and cytoskeletal reorganization. The endocytic mechanism of integrin-ß3 receptor at the podosome remains unclear. Using viscous RGD-membrane as the model system, here we show that the formation of podosome-like adhesion promotes Dab2/clathrin-mediated endocytosis of integrin-ß3. Integrin-ß3 and RGD ligand are endocytosed from the podosome and sorted into the endosomal compartment. Inhibitions of podosome formation and knockdowns of Dab2 and clathrin reduce RGD endocytosis. F-actin assembly at the podosome core exhibits protrusive contact towards the substrate and results in plasma membrane invaginations at the podosome ring. BIN1 specifically associates with the region of invaginated membrane and recruits DNM2. During the podosome formation, BIN1 and DNM2 synchronously enrich at the podosome ring and trigger clathrin dissociation and RGD endocytosis. Knockdowns of BIN1 and DNM2 suppress RGD endocytosis. Thus, plasma membrane invagination caused by F-actin polymerization promotes BIN1-dependent DNM2 recruitment and facilitate integrin-ß3 endocytosis at the podosome.

During podosome formation, distinct phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate lipid (PI(3,4,5)P3) production and F-actin polymerization take place at integrin-mediated adhesions. Membrane-associated actin regulation factors, such as myosin-1, serve as key molecules to link phosphatidylinositol signals to podosome assembly. Here, we report that long-tailed myosin-1e (Myo1e) is enriched at the ventral layer of the podosome core in a PI(3,4,5)P3-dependent manner. The combination of TH1 and TH2 (TH12) of Myo1e tail domains contains the essential motif for PI(3,4,5)P3-dependent membrane association and ventral localization at the podosome. TH12 KR2A (K772A and R782A) becomes dissociated from the plasma membrane. While F-actin polymerizations are initialized from the ventral layer of the podosome, TH12 precedes the recruitment of N-WASP and Arp2/3 in the initial phase of podosome formation. Overexpression of TH12, not TH12 KR2A, impedes PI(3,4,5)P3 signaling, restrains F-actin polymerization, and inhibits podosome formation. TH12 also suppresses gelatin degradation and migration speed of invadopodia-forming A375 melanoma cells. Thus, TH12 domain of Myo1e serves as a regulatory component to connect phosphatidylinositol signaling to F-actin polymerization at the podosome.

Unrestrained 53BP1 activity at DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) hampers DNA end resection and upsets DSB repair pathway choice. RNF169 acts as a molecular rheostat to limit 53BP1 deposition at DSBs, but how this fine balance translates to DSB repair control remains undefined. In striking contrast to 53BP1, ChIP analyses of AsiSI-induced DSBs unveiled that RNF169 exhibits robust accumulation at DNA end-proximal regions and preferentially targets resected, RPA-bound DSBs. Accordingly, we found that RNF169 promotes CtIP-dependent DSB resection and favors homology-mediated DSB repair, and further showed that RNF169 dose-dependently stimulates single-strand annealing repair, in part, by alleviating the 53BP1-imposed barrier to DSB end resection. Our results highlight the interplay of RNF169 with 53BP1 in fine-tuning choice of DSB repair pathways.
