Structural highlights
DiseaseFOXO1_HUMAN Defects in FOXO1 are a cause of rhabdomyosarcoma type 2 (RMS2) [MIM:268220. It is a form of rhabdomyosarcoma, a highly malignant tumor of striated muscle derived from primitive mesenchimal cells and exhibiting differentiation along rhabdomyoblastic lines. Rhabdomyosarcoma is one of the most frequently occurring soft tissue sarcomas and the most common in children. It occurs in four forms: alveolar, pleomorphic, embryonal and botryoidal rhabdomyosarcomas. Note=Chromosomal aberrations involving FOXO1 are found in rhabdomyosarcoma. Translocation (2;13)(q35;q14) with PAX3 and translocation t(1;13)(p36;q14) with PAX7. The resulting protein is a transcriptional activator. FunctionFOXO1_HUMAN Transcription factor that is the main target of insulin signaling and regulates metabolic homeostasis in response to oxidative stress. Binds to the insulin response element (IRE) with consensus sequence 5'-TT[G/A]TTTTG-3' and the related Daf-16 family binding element (DBE) with consensus sequence 5'-TT[G/A]TTTAC-3'. Activity suppressed by insulin. Main regulator of redox balance and osteoblast numbers and controls bone mass. Orchestrates the endocrine function of the skeleton in regulating glucose metabolism. Acts syngernistically with ATF4 to suppress osteocalcin/BGLAP activity, increasing glucose levels and triggering glucose intolerance and insulin insensitivity. Also suppresses the transcriptional activity of RUNX2, an upstream activator of osteocalcin/BGLAP. In hepatocytes, promotes gluconeogenesis by acting together with PPARGC1A to activate the expression of genes such as IGFBP1, G6PC and PPCK1. Important regulator of cell death acting downstream of CDK1, PKB/AKT1 and SKT4/MST1. Promotes neural cell death. Mediates insulin action on adipose. Regulates the expression of adipogenic genes such as PPARG during preadipocyte differentiation and, adipocyte size and adipose tissue-specific gene expression in response to excessive calorie intake. Regulates the transcriptional activity of GADD45A and repair of nitric oxide-damaged DNA in beta-cells.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] Publication Abstract from PubMedForkhead box protein O1 (FOXO1) is a transcription factor involved in various cellular processes such as glucose metabolism, development, stress resistance, and tumor suppression. FOXO1's transcriptional activity is controlled by different environmental cues through a myriad of post-translational modifications. In response to growth factors, the Serine/Threonine kinase AKT phosphorylates T24 and S256 in FOXO1 to stimulate binding of 14-3-3 proteins thereby causing FOXO1 inactivation. In contrast, low nutrients and energy levels induce FOXO1 activity. AMPK-activated protein kinase (AMPK), a master regulator of cellular energy homeostasis, partly mediates this effect through phosphorylation of S383 and T649 in FOXO1. In this study, we identified S22 as an additional AMPK phosphorylation site in FOXO1's N-terminus with S22 phosphorylation preventing binding of 14-3-3 proteins. The crystal structure of a FOXO1 peptide in complex with 14-3-3 sigma at 2.3 A resolution revealed that this is a consequence of both steric hindrance and electrostatic repulsion. Furthermore, we found that AMPK-mediated S22 phosphorylation impairs T24 phosphorylation by AKT in a hierarchical manner. Thus, numerous mechanisms maintain FOXO1 activity via AMPK signaling: AMPK-mediated S22 phosphorylation directly and indirectly averts binding of 14-3-3 proteins, whereas phosphorylation of S383 and T649 complementary stimulates FOXO1 activity. Our results shed light on a mechanism that integrates inputs from both AMPK and AKT signaling pathways in a small motif to fine-tune FOXO1 transcriptional activity. AMPK and AKT protein kinases hierarchically phosphorylate the N-terminus of the FOXO1 transcription factor, modulating interactions with 14-3-3 proteins.,Saline M, Badertscher L, Wolter M, Lau R, Gunnarsson A, Jacso T, Norris T, Ottmann C, Snijder A J Biol Chem. 2019 Jul 15. pii: RA119.008649. doi: 10.1074/jbc.RA119.008649.
