doi: 10.1038/s41419-025-07666-1
Figure Lengend Snippet: A Schematic of the in vitro experimental protocol. B , C : Immunofluorescence staining of Ki67 and quantitative analysis of Ki67 + cells. The number of Ki67 + cells decreased after co-culture with senescent human renal proximal tubular epithelial cells (HRPTEpiC) (senescent cells, SC). Scale bar: 100 µm ( B ). The data are mean ± SD (n = 3/group). D – H : The effects of IFITM-3 and ITGB-3 on macrophage senescence. IFITM3 and ITGB3 were manipulated in SC HRPTEpiC and macrophages, respectively. Macrophages were subsequently collected for Western blot analysis of senescence markers p21 Cip1/Waf1 , p53, p-p53.S15, and γ-H2AX. Silencing ITGB3 or IFITM3 individually using siRNA reduced the expression of these senescence markers. However, this blunting effect was mitigated when IFITM3 was overexpressed in HRPTEpiC, indicating that IFITM3 plays a critical role in maintaining senescence signaling despite ITGB3 knockdown. Data are mean ± SD ( n = 3/group). * P < 0.05 vs. Normal control (NC) and Non-SC groups; # P < 0.05 vs. SC group; and P < 0.05 vs. SC + IFITM3 over-expressing groups. I – K : Relative mRNA expression of the senescence markers p16 INK-4a , p21 Cip1/Waf1 , and p53 increased in macrophages co-incubated with senescent cells. β-actin was used as loading control. Data are mean ± SD ( n = 3/group). * P < 0.05 vs. Normal.

Figure Lengend Snippet: The MDM2–53BP1 interaction is promoted by the mtp53 C-terminus. ( A ) The C-terminus of mtp53 R273H within MDA-MB-468 was modified using CRISPR–Cas9 to create the cell line MDA-MB-468 R273Hfs347Δ360-393 (termed G6; mtp53 derivative R273HΔC). ( B ) Relative protein levels of 53BP1, MDM2, and mtp53 within MDA-MB-468 (25, 12.5, 6.25, and 3.125 μg) and G6 (25 μg) cell lines was examined by SDS–PAGE/western blot analysis. ( C ) Loss of mtp53 C-terminus disrupts mtp53 co-IP with MDM2. Extracts from MDA-MB-468 and G6 cell lines were incubated with either normal mouse IgG (negative control) or anti-MDM2 antibodies 4B2 (lanes 1–7) or SMP14 (lanes 8–14), and IP reactions were examined for MDM2 and mtp53 by western blot analysis. Lanes 1–7: 4B2 IP reactions from 800 μg of extract (input); lanes contain 10% of total IP and 2% of input. Lanes 8–14: SMP14 IP reactions from 1600 μg of extract; lanes contain 12.5% each IP and 0.5% of input. Lanes labeled 2× (lane 7 for the 4B2 IPs and lane 14 for the SMP14 IPs) contain twice the amount of the G6 extract MDM2 IP; a lighter exposure of mtp53 input is presented due to the vast excess of mtp53 compared to MDM2 within the MDA-MB-468 cell lines. ( D–F ) PLA analysis of mtp53–53BP1 (panel D), MDM2–mtp53 (panel E), and MDM2–53BP1 (panel F) in MDA-MB-468 and G6. PLA analysis of the indicated proteins was measured using PLA rabbit anti-p53, PLA goat anti-53BP1, and mouse anti-MDM2 2A9 antibodies.

( B ) Nutlin 3a does not inhibit T47D cell cycle progression. Twenty-four hour post-treatment with either vehicle or 10 μM Nutlin 3a, cells were labeled with EdU for 20 min and assayed for Cyclin A2 by immunofluorescence. Confocal images from at least three fields were acquired and the number of EdU + and Cyclin A + nuclei were quantified (tabulated in S4, panel C) in each population of vehicle-treated [vector = 289; shmdmx = 278; shmdm2 = 249] and Nutlin 3a-treated [vector = 227; shmdmx = 283; shmdm2 = 245] cells. The S/G2 fraction (total Cyclin A + nuclei) for vehicle-treated: vector = 33.6%, shmdmx = 37.8%, shmdm2 = 36.8%; Nutlin 3a-treated: vector = 38.3%, shmdmx = 27.0%, shmdm2 = 29.4%. ( C and D ) Nutlin 3a disrupts mtp53–MDM2 and 53BP1–MDM2 PLA foci in T47D. Twenty-four hour post-treatment with vehicle or 10 μM Nutlin 3a cell populations PLA interactions were measured between MDM2–mtp53 (panel C) and MDM2–53BP1 (panel D) using PLA rabbit anti-p53, PLA goat anti-53BP1, and mouse anti-MDM2 4B2 primary antibodies. Confocal images for 4–6 fields for each were acquired and the number of PLA foci per nucleus from each cell population was determined ( n = 2 for panel C and n = 3 for panel D).

Figure Lengend Snippet: Integration of RAP80 and DUB Specificity of BRCA1-A (A) The position of the UEV-N, RWD, and UEV-C domains of BRE and the VWA domain of MERIT40 (shown as cartoon) within the BRCA1-A complex (shown as surface). RAP80 is embedded into the complex through contacts with BRE, MERIT40, and ABRAXAS. (B) BRCA1-A complex processes (Ub) 4 faster than (Ub) 3 and (Ub) 2 . K63-linked ubiquitin substrate (150 ng/lane) was incubated with 5 nM BRCA1-A on ice and analyzed by silver-stained SDS-PAGE. Under these conditions, (Ub) 4 is cleaved within 5 min, whereas (Ub) 2 and (Ub) 3 are not cleaved within 7 h. (C) Tetra-ubiquitin chains are pre-oriented on BRCA1-A complex during cleavage, as evident from comparison of the degradation of K63-linked (Ub) 4 substrate labeled with TAMRA at the proximal and distal ubiquitin, respectively. Degradation products of 1 μM substrate incubated with 10 nM BRCA1-A at room temperature were resolved on an SDS-PAGE; TAMRA was subsequently visualized.

Figure Lengend Snippet: BRCA1-A Forms a Defined High-Affinity Complex with BRCA1 (A) In an MST assay measuring binding of labeled BRCA1-BRCT to full-length BRCA1-A complex including phosphorylated p-Ser404/406 ABRAXAS C terminus, BRCA1-BRCT is bound with nanomolar affinity. The assay measures change of relative fluorescence during heating; values are F norm = F hot / F cold . Error bars represent mean ± SD of n = 4 replicates. Back titration with unlabeled BRCA1-BRCT confirms nanomolar affinity. Error bars represent mean ± SD of n = 4 replicates. (B) Crosslinking network of the BRCA1-A-BRCA1 complex. Proteins are shown schematically as bars. Crosslinks are shown as black lines. The crosslink between K360 of BRE and K1750 of BRCA1 is conditional on the presence of p-Ser404/406 phosphorylation on ABRAXAS C terminus. (C) Model of the BRCA1-A-BRCA1 high-affinity complex. One protomer of ABRAXAS, BRE, and RAP80 is shown as cartoon, while the remainder of the BRCA1-A complex is shown as gray surface. A BRCA1-BRCT dimer (blue, cartoon) is depicted in a position that localizes K1750 of BRCA1 proximal to K360 of BRE. The unstructured C-terminal regions of ABRAXAS are depicted schematically as orange and gray lines. A di-ubiquitin (green, surface) is shown modeled into the active site.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Metabolic Enzyme SHMT2α Binds Specifically to BRISC, Inactivating It (A) The cryo-EM structure of BRISC-SHMT2α reveals why SHMT2α binds BRISC, but not BRCA1-A. While the ABRO1 isoleucine (Ile133) proximal to SHMT2α is conserved in ABRAXAS, it points away from SHMT2α due to insertion of a proline (Pro137) into ABRAXAS. (B) SHMT2 clashes with the position of the proximal ubiquitin of a ubiquitin dimer bound to the active site. Modeling di-ubiquitin (red, surface) into the BRCC36 active site reveals a substantial clash with the position of SHMT2α (green) in the BRISC-SHMT2α map (semitransparent surface). (C) SHMT2α is a potent inhibitor of BRISC (2 nM), but not of BRCA1-A (5 nM), as shown by SHMT2α-mediated inactivation of BRISC in a DUB-activity assay using IQF K63-linked di-Ubiquitin. A BRISC-RAP80 fusion construct (2 nM) containing the MPN domain of ABRO1 combined with the C terminus of ABRAXAS integrates RAP80 like BRCA1-A but is inhibited by SHMT2α like BRISC. Error bars represent mean ± SD of n = 3 replicates.
