چکیده

Cervical cancer develops through the combined activities of the human papillomavirus (HPV) E6 and E7 oncoproteins. A defining characteristic of E6 oncoproteins derived from cancer-causing HPV types is the presence of a PDZ binding motif (PBM) at the extreme carboxy terminus of the protein which is absent from E6 proteins derived from the so-called low-risk HPV types. Within this PBM is also a protein kinase A (PKA) phospho-acceptor site, which is thought to negatively regulate the association of E6 with its PDZ domain-containing substrates. We can now show that phosphorylation of E6 by PKA and/or AKT confers the ability to interact with 14-3-3ζ. The interaction is direct and specific for the high-risk HPV E6 oncoproteins, although there are significant differences in the efficiencies with which HPV-16, HPV-18, and HPV-31 E6 oncoproteins can associate with 14-3-3ζ; this correlates directly with their respective susceptibilities to phosphorylation by PKA and/or AKT. We demonstrate here that the interaction between E6 and 14-3-3ζ also requires integrity of the E6 PBM, and downregulation of 14-3-3ζ results in a marked reduction in the levels of HPV-18 E6 expression in HeLa cells. Using phospho-specific anti-E6 antibodies, we also demonstrate significant levels of E6 phosphorylation in vivo. These studies redefine the potential relevance of the E6 PBM in the development of cervical cancer, suggesting that interaction with 14-3-3ζ, as well as the more well-established interactions with PDZ domain-containing substrates, is likely to be responsible for the biological activities attributed to this region of the high-risk HPV E6 oncoproteins.

Cancer-causing human papillomavirus E6 proteins display major differences in the phospho-regulation of their PDZ interactions.

UNLABELLED Previous studies have shown that the cancer-causing high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) E6 oncoproteins have PDZ binding potential, an activity which is important for their ability to support the viral life cycle and to cooperate in the induction of malignancy. However, PDZ interactions are not constitutive, and they can be negatively regulated by phosphorylation within the E6 PDZ b...

PDZRN3/LNX3 is a novel target of human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16) and HPV-18 E6.

High-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) E6 proteins have a C-terminal PDZ binding motif through which they bind, and target for proteasome-mediated degradation, a number of PDZ-containing cellular targets. Recent studies have suggested that the RING-containing ubiquitin-protein ligase PDZRN3 might also be an HPV E6 target. In this analysis, we show that HPV-16 and HPV-18 E6 can target PDZRN3 in a ...

Multi-PDZ domain protein MUPP1 is a cellular target for both adenovirus E4-ORF1 and high-risk papillomavirus type 18 E6 oncoproteins.

A general theme that has emerged from studies of DNA tumor viruses is that otherwise unrelated oncoproteins encoded by these viruses often target the same important cellular factors. Major oncogenic determinants for human adenovirus type 9 (Ad9) and high-risk human papillomaviruses (HPV) are the E4-ORF1 and E6 oncoproteins, respectively, and although otherwise unrelated, both of these viral pro...

Interaction of the Human Papillomavirus E6 Oncoprotein with Sorting Nexin 27 Modulates Endocytic Cargo Transport Pathways

A subset of high-risk Human Papillomaviruses (HPVs) are the causative agents of a large number of human cancers, of which cervical is the most common. Two viral oncoproteins, E6 and E7, contribute directly towards the development and maintenance of malignancy. A characteristic feature of the E6 oncoproteins from cancer-causing HPV types is the presence of a PDZ binding motif (PBM) at its C-term...

Analysis of Multiple HPV E6 PDZ Interactions Defines Type-Specific PDZ Fingerprints That Predict Oncogenic Potential

The high-risk Human Papillomavirus (HPV) E6 oncoproteins are characterised by the presence of a class I PDZ-binding motif (PBM) on their extreme carboxy termini. The PBM is present on the E6 proteins derived from all cancer-causing HPV types, but can also be found on some related non-cancer-causing E6 proteins. We have therefore been interested in investigating the potential functional differen...
