STAT5 acetylation
نویسندگان
چکیده
The cytokine-inducible transcription factors signal transducer and activator of transcription 5A and 5B (STAT5A and STAT5B) are important for the proper development of multicellular eukaryotes. Disturbed signaling cascades evoking uncontrolled expression of STAT5 target genes are associated with cancer and immunological failure. Here, we summarize how STAT5 acetylation is integrated into posttranslational modification networks within cells. Moreover, we focus on how inhibitors of deacetylases and tyrosine kinases can correct leukemogenic signaling nodes involving STAT5. Such small molecules can be exploited in the fight against neoplastic diseases and immunological disorders.

Acetylation and sumoylation control STAT5 activation antagonistically
STAT5 proteins are activated by tyrosine phosphorylation, but recently further post-translation modifications such as serine/threonine phosphorylation, acetylation at lysine residues or sumoylation in close vicinity of the critical tyrosine residue have been reported. Here, we discuss new findings on impaired STAT5 signaling in lymphocytes isolated from a SUMO-specific protease knockout mouse (...
متن کاملDeacetylase inhibitors repress STAT5-mediated transcription by interfering with bromodomain and extra-terminal (BET) protein function
Signal transducer and activator of transcription STAT5 is essential for the regulation of proliferation and survival genes. Its activity is tightly regulated through cytokine signaling and is often upregulated in cancer. We showed previously that the deacetylase inhibitor trichostatin A (TSA) inhibits STAT5-mediated transcription by preventing recruitment of the transcriptional machinery at a s...
متن کاملThe pre-TCR signal induces transcriptional silencing of the TCRγ locus by reducing the recruitment of STAT5 and Runx to transcriptional enhancers.
The mouse TCRγ locus is positively regulated by the transcription factors STAT5 and Runx. While the locus undergoes frequent rearrangements in T lymphocytes, TCRγ transcription is repressed in αβ T cells. This phenomenon, known as TCRγ silencing, depends on pre-TCR-induced thymocyte proliferation. The molecular basis for TCRγ silencing, however, is largely unknown. Here, we show that pre-TCR si...
متن کاملSIRT1 regulates adaptive response of the growth hormone--insulin-like growth factor-I axis under fasting conditions in liver.
Adaptation under fasting conditions is critical for survival in animals. Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), a protein deacetylase, plays an essential role in adaptive metabolic and endocrine responses under fasting conditions by modifying the acetylation status of various proteins. Fasting induces growth hormone (GH) resistance in the liver, leading to decreased serum insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) level...
متن کاملDeacetylase activity is required for recruitment of the basal transcription machinery and transactivation by STAT5.
The signal transducer and activator of transcription STAT5 plays a major role in the cellular response to cytokines, but the mechanism by which it activates transcription remains poorly understood. We show here that deacetylase inhibitors (trichostatin A, suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid, and sodium butyrate) prevent induction of endogenous STAT5 target genes, implying that a deacetylase activit...
