Abstract 1840: MYBBP1A AMPylated by SELO to influence its function

Abstract Introduction: MYBBP1A, named Myb-binding protein 1A, is a protein that mainly locates in nucleolar and shuttles between the nucleus and cytoplasm, nuclear import may be mediated by KPNA2, however export depend partially on XPO1/CRM1. It activates or represses transcription via interactions with sequence specific DNA-binding proteins. Repression may be mediated at least in part by histone deacetylase activity (HDAC activity). Acts as a corepressor and in concert with CRY1, represses the transcription of the core circadian clock component PER2. Preferentially binds to di-methylated histone H3 'Lys-9' (H3K9me2) on the PER2 promoter. MYBBP1A overexpressed in tumor than normal and have a significantly negative correlation with patient overall survival. We aim to explore the role of MYBBP1A in PDAC progression and underlying mechanism. In our research, we find and prove the novel AMPylating enzyme SELO-AMPylate MYBBP1A inhibits PDAC progression and modified site in S1353 and further influence downstream relative RNA, such as 18s rRNA, 28S rRNA. Methods and Materials: 1. The function of MYBBP1A in tumorigenesis at the organismal and cellular levels. MYBBP1A is widely expressed in different tissues. Firstly, we explored the correlation between MYBBP1A expression level and PDAC through TCGA database and Kaplan-Meier plotter. We then established MYBBP1A gene knockout mice mating with PDX/P53K172H/KRASG12C to induced a primary PDAC model to analyze the progression of pancreatic cancer. The effect of MYBBP1A on tumor cell growth and proliferation was explored through cell proliferation analysis and a nude mouse tumor xenograft model. 2. The MYBBP1A AMPylated by SELO influence MYBBP1A function in cell proliferation was investigated at the molecular and cellular levels. AMPylation-specific antibodies were used to confirmed MYBBP1A AMPylated by SELO in both cell lysates and purified proteins through experiments such as CO-IP and WB. Stably expressed MYBBP1A WT/S1353A were constructed to verify the function in cell proliferation or migration by SELO. The signaling molecules were further explored through CO-IP and WB to identify the changed molecular by SELO-AMPylate-MYBBP1A, revealing the entire signaling pathways of AMPylation-mediated regulation of PDAC proliferation. Conclusion: We have demonstrated the function of MYBBP1A in the formation of pancreatic cancer, and further revealed SELO-AMPylate-MYBBP1A importance in the process of reversing MYBBP1A’s role, which has played a certain significance for the treatment of pancreatic cancer and the exploration of related therapeutic targets.
