项目摘要

p63 is a p53 family tumor suppressor. When p63 is expressed from the P1 promoter, five TAp63 isoforms (α, β, γ, δ, ε) are produced. When p63 is expressed from theP2 promoter, five ΔNp63 isoforms are produced. While the transcripts for ten p63 isoforms can be detected by RT-PCR, only proteins for p63α and p63γ are found to be detectable and thus the focus of the study. TAp63 contains an N- terminal activation domain conserved in p53 and regulates an array of genes for growth suppression. Indeed, mice deficient in TAp63 are prone to spontaneous tumors and premature aging. In contrast, ΔNp63, which contains a unique N-terminal activation domain, is required for proper development of epidermis and other stratified epithelial cells. Additionally, ΔNp63 is overexpressed in cancer and classified as an oncoprotein. Rbm38, also called RNPC1, is a RNA-binding protein with one RNA recognition motif (RRM) and a target of p63. Interestingly, we found that Rbm38 inhibits p63α mRNA stability via binding to p63 3' untranslated region (3'UTR). Thus, the mutual regulation between p63 and Rbm38 prompts us to hypothesize that the p63-Rbm38 loop plays a key role in p63-dependent tumor suppression and longevity. The hypothesis will be tested in the following three specific aims: (1) to determine how p63α and p63γ are differentially regulated by Rbm38; (2) to determine whether Rbm38 regulates TAp63- and p63γ-dependent premature aging and tumor suppression; (3) to determine how the p63-Rbm38 loop is regulated and its biological significance.

p63 是 p53 家族肿瘤抑制因子，当 p63 从 P1 启动子表达时，会产生 5 种 TAp63 亚型（α、β、γ、δ、ε）。当 p63 从 P2 启动子表达时，会产生 5 种 ΔNp63 亚型。 RT-PCR 可以检测到 10 种 p63 亚型的转录物，仅发现 p63α 和 p63γ 的蛋白质可检测到因此，TAp63 包含 p53 中保守的 N 端激活结构域，并调节一系列生长抑制基因。事实上，缺乏 TAp63 的小鼠容易发生自发性肿瘤和过早衰老。含有独特的 N 末端激活结构域，是表皮和其他分层上皮细胞正常发育所必需的。此外，ΔNp63 在癌症中过度表达，被归类为Rbm38，也称为 RNPC1，是一种具有一个 RNA 识别基序 (RRM) 的 RNA 结合蛋白，并且是 p63 的靶标。因此，p63 和 Rbm38 之间的相互调节促使我们捕获 p63-Rbm38 环的作用。中发挥关键作用p63依赖性肿瘤抑制和寿命的假设将在以下三个具体目标中得到检验：（1）确定。 Rbm38 如何差异调节 p63α 和 p63γ；（2）确定 Rbm38 是否调节 TAp63 和 p63γ 依赖性过早衰老和肿瘤抑制；（3）确定 p63-Rbm38 环如何调节及其生物学意义。
