KDEL Receptors Assist Dengue Virus Exit from the Endoplasmic Reticulum
In this study, we demonstrate that dengue virus (DENV) interacts with KDEL receptors (KDELR), which cycle between the ER and Golgi apparatus, for vesicular transport from ER to Golgi. Depletion of KDELR by siRNA reduced egress of both DENV progeny and recombinant subviral particles (RSPs). Coimmunoprecipitation of KDELR with dengue structural protein prM required three positively charged residues at the N terminus, whose mutation disrupted protein interaction and inhibited RSP transport from the ER to the Golgi. Finally, siRNA depletion of class II Arfs, which results in KDELR accumulation in the Golgi, phenocopied result...

E3 Ligase RNF126 Directly Ubiquitinates Frataxin, Promoting Its Degradation: Identification of a Potential Therapeutic Target for Friedreich Ataxia
Publication date: 21 February 2017 Source:Cell Reports, Volume 18, Issue 8 Author(s): Monica Benini, Silvia Fortuni, Ivano Condò, Giulia Alfedi, Florence Malisan, Nicola Toschi, Dario Serio, Damiano Sergio Massaro, Gaetano Arcuri, Roberto Testi, Alessandra Rufini Friedreich ataxia (FRDA) is a severe genetic neurodegenerative disease caused by reduced expression of the mitochondrial protein frataxin. To date, there is no therapy to treat this condition. The amount of residual frataxin critically affects the severity of the disease; thus, attempts to restore physiological frataxin levels are considered therapeutically rele...

The Conserved RNA Binding Cyclophilin, Rct1, Regulates Small RNA Biogenesis and Splicing Independent of Heterochromatin Assembly
Publication date: 20 June 2017 Source:Cell Reports, Volume 19, Issue 12 Author(s): An-Yun Chang, Stephane E. Castel, Evan Ernst, Hyun Soo Kim, Robert A. Martienssen RNAi factors and their catalytic activities are essential for heterochromatin assembly in S. pombe. This has led to the idea that siRNAs can promote H3K9 methylation by recruiting the cryptic loci regulator complex (CLRC), also known as recombination in K complex (RIKC), to the nucleation site. The conserved RNA-binding protein Rct1 (AtCyp59/SIG-7) interacts with splicing factors and RNA polymerase II. Here we show that Rct1 promotes processing of pericentr...

Diverse Regulators of Human Ribosome Biogenesis Discovered by Changes in Nucleolar Number
Publication date: 13 February 2018 Source:Cell Reports, Volume 22, Issue 7 Author(s): Katherine I. Farley-Barnes, Kathleen L. McCann, Lisa M. Ogawa, Janie Merkel, Yulia V. Surovtseva, Susan J. Baserga Ribosome biogenesis is a highly regulated, essential cellular process. Although studies in yeast have established some of the biological principles of ribosome biogenesis, many of the intricacies of its regulation in higher eukaryotes remain unknown. To understand how ribosome biogenesis is globally integrated in human cells, we conducted a genome-wide siRNA screen for regulators of nucleolar number. We found 139 proteins wh...

A PP6-ASK3 Module Coordinates the Bidirectional Cell Volume Regulation under Osmotic Stress
Publication date: 13 March 2018 Source:Cell Reports, Volume 22, Issue 11 Author(s): Kengo Watanabe, Tsuyoshi Umeda, Kuniyoshi Niwa, Isao Naguro, Hidenori Ichijo Cell volume regulation is a vital system for cellular activities. When perturbed by hypoosmotic or hyperosmotic stress, cells immediately induce the cell volume recovery system, regulatory volume decrease (RVD) or regulatory volume increase (RVI), respectively. In contrast to the knowledge about effector molecules, the molecular mechanisms linking osmosensing to RVD/RVI induction remain unknown. Additionally, few reciprocal responders in the bidirectional osmotic ...

FXR1 Is an IL-19-Responsive RNA-Binding Protein that Destabilizes Pro-inflammatory Transcripts in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells
Publication date: 31 July 2018Source: Cell Reports, Volume 24, Issue 5Author(s): Allison B. Herman, Christine N. Vrakas, Mitali Ray, Sheri E. Kelemen, Michael J. Sweredoski, Annie Moradian, Dale S. Haines, Michael V. AutieriSummaryThis work identifies the fragile-X-related protein (FXR1) as a reciprocal regulator of HuR target transcripts in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). FXR1 was identified as an HuR-interacting protein by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The HuR-FXR1 interaction is abrogated in RNase-treated extracts, indicating that their association is tethered by mRNAs. FXR1 expression...

Genome-wide RNAi Screen Reveals a Role for Multipass Membrane Proteins in Endosome-to-Golgi Retrieval
Publication date: 11 December 2014 Source:Cell Reports, Volume 9, Issue 5 Author(s): Sophia Y. Breusegem , Matthew N.J. Seaman Endosome-to-Golgi retrieval is an essential membrane trafficking pathway required for many important physiological processes and linked to neurodegenerative disease and infection by bacterial and viral pathogens. The prototypical cargo protein for this pathway is the cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor (CIMPR), which delivers lysosomal hydrolases to endosomes. Efficient retrieval of CIMPR to the Golgi requires the retromer complex, but other aspects of the endosome-to-Golgi retrieva...

In Vivo RNAi Screening Identifies MDA5 as a Significant Contributor to the Cellular Defense against Influenza A Virus
Publication date: Available online 11 June 2015 Source:Cell Reports Author(s): Asiel A. Benitez , Maryline Panis , Jia Xue , Andrew Varble , Jaehee V. Shim , Amy L. Frick , Carolina B. López , David Sachs , Benjamin R. tenOever Responding to an influenza A virus (IAV) infection demands an effective intrinsic cellular defense strategy to slow replication. To identify contributing host factors to this defense, we exploited the host microRNA pathway to perform an in vivo RNAi screen. To this end, IAV, lacking a functional NS1 antagonist, was engineered to encode individual siRNAs against antiviral host genes in an ef...

Specific Myosins Control Actin Organization, Cell Morphology, and Migration in Prostate Cancer Cells
Publication date: Available online 6 December 2015 Source:Cell Reports Author(s): Katarzyna A. Makowska, Ruth E. Hughes, Kathryn J. White, Claire M. Wells, Michelle Peckham We investigated the myosin expression profile in prostate cancer cell lines and found that Myo1b, Myo9b, Myo10, and Myo18a were expressed at higher levels in cells with high metastatic potential. Moreover, Myo1b and Myo10 were expressed at higher levels in metastatic tumors. Using an siRNA-based approach, we found that knockdown of each myosin resulted in distinct phenotypes. Myo10 knockdown ablated filopodia and decreased 2D migration speed....
