Protein-protein interactions regulate many essential enzymatic processes in the cell. Somatic mutations outside of an enzyme active site can therefore impact cellular function by disruption of critical protein-protein interactions. In our investigation of the cellular impact of the T304I cancer mutation of DNA Polymerase beta (Pol beta), we find that mutation of this surface threonine residue impacts critical Pol beta protein-protein interactions. We show that proteasome-mediated degradation of Pol beta is regulated by both ubiquitin-dependent and ubiquitin-independent processes via unique protein-protein interactions. The ubiquitin-independent proteasome pathway regulates the stability of Pol beta in the cytosol via interaction between Pol beta and NAD(P)H quinone dehydrogenase 1 (NQO1) in an NADH-dependent manner. Conversely, the interaction of Pol beta with the scaffold protein X-ray repair cross complementing 1 (XRCC1) plays a role in the localization of Pol beta to the nuclear compartment and regulates the stability of Pol beta via a ubiquitin-dependent pathway. Further, we find that oxidative stress promotes the dissociation of the Pol beta/NQO1 complex, enhancing the interaction of Pol beta with XRCC1. Our results reveal that somatic mutations such as T304I in Pol beta impact critical protein-protein interactions, altering the stability and sub-cellular localization of Pol beta and providing mechanistic insight into how key protein-protein interactions regulate cellular responses to stress.
