AIE-75 has been known as a 75-kDa autoantigen detected in the serum of autoimmune enteropathy (AIE) and as a colon cancer-related antigen, and now designated as a gene causative of Usher syndrome type I C hereditary syndromic hearing loss. It binds to a novel putative tumor suppressor MCC2 that is homologous to MCC (mutated in colon cancer) through a PSD-95/Dlg/ZO-1 (PDZ) domain. To clarify the functional role in colon cancer cells, we transfected AIE-75 gene into SW480 colon cancer cells which do not express AIE-75. Expression of AIE-75 suppressed growth of SW480 cells in vitro in correlation with the expression levels. It was due mainly to G(2)/M phase cell cycle arrest associated with mitotic slippage, resulting in emergence of hyperploid giant-nucleated or multi-nucleated cells. Screening of proteins that bound to PDZ domains of AIE-75 by a yeast two hybrid system showed that three serine/threonine phosphatase catalytic subunits (PP2AC-alpha, PP2AC-beta, and PPP6C) could bind to AIE-75. Since PP2AC is known to regulate G2/M checkpoint, we suggest that AIE-75 interacts with PP2AC and prevent cells to transit mitotic phase. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
