Project Summary/Abstract
A context dependent role of autophagy has been implicated in cancer, and modulation of autophagy has
becoming a new experimental strategy in cancer treatment. Sequestosome1 (SQSTM1/p62) is a known
autophagy adaptor and mediates cell proliferation, survival and death through multiple signaling pathways,
including mTORC1 activation and autophagy. Accumulation and misregulation of p62 has been linked to tumor
formation, progression and resistance to therapy, thus p62 is emerging as a new therapeutic target in cancer
treatment. Recent studies from our lab and others revealed a critical role of p62 in the autophagic cascade
responsible for sequestration of misfolded proteins generated during endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, and
importantly, small molecules targeting the ZZ domain of p62 (p62ZZ) have been shown to inhibit multiple myeloma
(MM) cell growth. Yet how p62ZZ ligands inhibits MM cell growth and more broadly, how p62 senses stress and
regulates cellular pathways are still not fully understood. We also found that p62ZZ binds histone H3 tail, linking
the chromatin targeting of p62 to a recently discovered role of p62 in DNA damage response, which is frequently
targeted in cancer therapeutics. MM is still an uncurbable blood cancer today and is characterized by constitutive
high ER-stress. We hypothesize that the conformational state and intracellular level of p62, controlled by its
interaction with cellular signals, is the determinant to activate a specific pathway such as mTORC1 activation,
autophagy and DNA repair. Treating cells with p62 ligands hijacks p62 and inhibits its normal function, leading
to accumulation of stress and cell growth suppression. This application aims to determine the mechanism of
action that directly targeting p62ZZ inhibits MM cell growth (Aim1);? elucidate the molecular mechanisms
underlying p62-dependent selective activation of mTORC1 or autophagy pathways (Aim2);? and define the role
of p62 chromatin targeting in DNA damage response (Aim3). The K99 phase of the proposed studies will be
conducted under the mentorship of Dr. Tatiana Kutateladze, who is a well-regarded structural biologist in the
epigenetics field and has a strong record in mentoring young scientists. For the cellular experiments related to
autophagy and DNA damage response, I will learn from and collaborate with Dr. Andrew Thorburn, a leading
expert in the field of autophagy, and Dr. Joshua Black who is an expert in chromatin biology. My progress in
research and career development will be closely monitored by the dedicative and supportive advisory committee.
The goal for the K99 phase is to complete Aim1 and initiate the rest aims of the proposal and build a strong
foundation for my transition to becoming an independent investigator. My long-term goal is to elucidate the
mechanisms of p62-dependent signaling and regulatory pathways, using multidisciplinary approaches,
particularly those have been implicated in human diseases. A K99 grant would greatly aid me by providing critical
training, helping me secure a faculty position and allowing me to start my career as an independent researcher.
