    Tankyrase inhibition stabilizes axin and antagonizes Wnt signalling (2009)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2009-09-18
    Description: The stability of the Wnt pathway transcription factor beta-catenin is tightly regulated by the multi-subunit destruction complex. Deregulated Wnt pathway activity has been implicated in many cancers, making this pathway an attractive target for anticancer therapies. However, the development of targeted Wnt pathway inhibitors has been hampered by the limited number of pathway components that are amenable to small molecule inhibition. Here, we used a chemical genetic screen to identify a small molecule, XAV939, which selectively inhibits beta-catenin-mediated transcription. XAV939 stimulates beta-catenin degradation by stabilizing axin, the concentration-limiting component of the destruction complex. Using a quantitative chemical proteomic approach, we discovered that XAV939 stabilizes axin by inhibiting the poly-ADP-ribosylating enzymes tankyrase 1 and tankyrase 2. Both tankyrase isoforms interact with a highly conserved domain of axin and stimulate its degradation through the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. Thus, our study provides new mechanistic insights into the regulation of axin protein homeostasis and presents new avenues for targeted Wnt pathway therapies.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Huang, Shih-Min A -- Mishina, Yuji M -- Liu, Shanming -- Cheung, Atwood -- Stegmeier, Frank -- Michaud, Gregory A -- Charlat, Olga -- Wiellette, Elizabeth -- Zhang, Yue -- Wiessner, Stephanie -- Hild, Marc -- Shi, Xiaoying -- Wilson, Christopher J -- Mickanin, Craig -- Myer, Vic -- Fazal, Aleem -- Tomlinson, Ronald -- Serluca, Fabrizio -- Shao, Wenlin -- Cheng, Hong -- Shultz, Michael -- Rau, Christina -- Schirle, Markus -- Schlegl, Judith -- Ghidelli, Sonja -- Fawell, Stephen -- Lu, Chris -- Curtis, Daniel -- Kirschner, Marc W -- Lengauer, Christoph -- Finan, Peter M -- Tallarico, John A -- Bouwmeester, Tewis -- Porter, Jeffery A -- Bauer, Andreas -- Cong, Feng -- England -- Nature. 2009 Oct 1;461(7264):614-20. doi: 10.1038/nature08356.

    Epithelial transforming growth factor {beta}-activated kinase 1 (TAK1) is activated through two independent mechanisms and regulates reactive oxygen species [Cell Biology] (2012)
    National Academy of Sciences
    Details
    Publication Date: 2012-02-29
    Description: Dysregulation in cellular redox systems results in accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which are causally associated with a number of disease conditions. Transforming growth factor β-activated kinase 1 (TAK1) is a signaling intermediate of innate immune signaling pathways and is critically involved in the redox regulation in vivo. Ablation of TAK1 causes accumulation of ROS, resulting in epithelial cell death and inflammation. Here we determine the mechanism by which TAK1 kinase is activated in epithelial tissues. TAB1 and TAB2 are structurally unrelated TAK1 binding protein partners. TAB2 is known to mediate polyubiquitin chain-dependent TAK1 activation in innate immune signaling pathways, whereas the role of TAB1 is not defined. We found that epithelial-specific TAB1 and TAB2 double- but not TAB1 or TAB2 single-knockout mice phenocopied epithelial-specific TAK1 knockout mice. We demonstrate that phosphorylation-dependent basal activity of TAK1 is dependent on TAB1. Ablation of both TAB1 and TAB2 diminished the activity of TAK1 in vivo and causes accumulation of ROS in the epithelial tissues. These results demonstrate that epithelial TAK1 activity is regulated through two unique, TAB1-dependent basal and TAB2-mediated stimuli-dependent mechanisms.
