Disease
[XIAP_HUMAN] Defects in XIAP are the cause of lymphoproliferative syndrome X-linked type 2 (XLP2) [MIM:300635]. XLP is a rare immunodeficiency characterized by extreme susceptibility to infection with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). Symptoms include severe or fatal mononucleosis, acquired hypogammaglobulinemia, pancytopenia and malignant lymphoma.[1]
Function
[XIAP_HUMAN] Multi-functional protein which regulates not only caspases and apoptosis, but also modulates inflammatory signaling and immunity, copper homeostasis, mitogenic kinase signaling, cell proliferation, as well as cell invasion and metastasis. Acts as a direct caspase inhibitor. Directly bind to the active site pocket of CASP3 and CASP7 and obstructs substrate entry. Inactivates CASP9 by keeping it in a monomeric, inactive state. Acts as an E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase regulating NF-kappa-B signaling and the target proteins for its E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase activity include: RIPK1, CASP3, CASP7, CASP8, CASP9, MAP3K2/MEKK2, DIABLO/SMAC, AIFM1, CCS and BIRC5/survivin. Ubiquitinion of CCS leads to enhancement of its chaperone activity toward its physiologic target, SOD1, rather than proteasomal degradation. Ubiquitinion of MAP3K2/MEKK2 and AIFM1 does not lead to proteasomal degradation. Plays a role in copper homeostasis by ubiquitinationg COMMD1 and promoting its proteasomal degradation. Can also function as E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase of the NEDD8 conjugation pathway, targeting effector caspases for neddylation and inactivation. Regulates the BMP signaling pathway and the SMAD and MAP3K7/TAK1 dependent pathways leading to NF-kappa-B and JNK activation. Acts as an important regulator of innate immune signaling via regulation of Nodlike receptors (NLRs). Protects cells from spontaneous formation of the ripoptosome, a large multi-protein complex that has the capability to kill cancer cells in a caspase-dependent and caspase-independent manner. Suppresses ripoptosome formation by ubiquitinating RIPK1 and CASP8. Acts as a positive regulator of Wnt signaling and ubiquitinates TLE1, TLE2, TLE3, TLE4 and AES. Ubiquitination of TLE3 results in inhibition of its interaction with TCF7L2/TCF4 thereby allowing efficient recruitment and binding of the transcriptional coactivator beta-catenin to TCF7L2/TCF4 that is required to initiate a Wnt-specific transcriptional program.[2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13]
Publication Abstract from PubMed
IAPs (Inhibitor of Apoptosis Proteins) are highly conserved negative regulators of apoptosis overexpressed in many cancer cells. Based on their endogenous antagonist, Smac/DIABLO, mimic compounds (Smac-mimetics, SMs) have been developed to inhibit IAPs pro-survival activity, showing promising effects in advanced phases of clinical trials. Since different IAP homologues play distinctive roles in cancer cell survival and immunomodulation, SM-induced apoptosis proceeds through diverse mechanisms. After binding to their BIR3 domain, SMs have been shown to rapidly induce auto-ubiquitylation and degradation of cellular IAPs (cIAPs), thus leading to cell death mainly by activation of the non-canonical NF-kappaB pathway. For this reason, we started the BIR3-driven design of compounds selective for cIAP1 and with reduced affinity for X-linked IAP (XIAP), in order to focus SMs anti-tumor activity on cIAPs degradation. In this work, we describe the crystal structures of the BIR3 domains of cIAP1 and XIAP, each in complex with a cIAP1-selective SM (SM130 and SM114, respectively). The two SMs displayed 23- and 32-fold higher affinity for cIAP1-BIR3 over XIAP-BIR3 in molecular displacement experiments based on fluorescence polarization. In vitro cell-based assays confirmed that both selective SMs triggered apoptosis in cancer cells with different efficiencies by inducing caspases-3, -8 and -9-independent cIAP1 degradation. The design of cIAPs-selective compounds represents an innovative approach in the field of anti-cancer drugs development, being useful to elucidate different pro-survival mechanisms, and to reduce the adverse effects of pan-IAPs compounds in cancer therapy.
