p300 and CBP are large (300 kDa) nuclear scaffold proteins that act as co-activators of transcription in most cell types and are over-expressed in prostate cancer. Recently, the Egr1 transcription factor was shown to up- or down-regulate p300 and CBP transcription based on the nature of its post-translational modification. Notably, interactions of the three proteins provide fine tuning for Egr1-induced growth or cell death responses.

Chromatin modifications including histone acetylation play essential roles in regulating flowering. The CBP/p300 family HISTONE ACETYLTRANSFERASE 1 (HAC1), which mediates histone acetylation, promotes the process of floral transition; however, the precise mechanism remains largely unclear. Specifically, how HAC1 is involved in the flowering regulatory network and which genes are the direct targets of HAC1 during flowering regulation are still unknown.

HPV E6/E7-Induced Acetylation of a Peptide Encoded by a Long Non-Coding RNA Inhibits Ferroptosis to Promote the Malignancy of Cervical Cancer.

Although a fraction of functional peptides concealed within long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) is identified, it remains unclear whether lncRNA-encoded peptides are involved in the malignancy of cervical cancer (CC). Here, a 92-amino acid peptide is discovered, which is named TUBORF, encoded by lncRNA TUBA3FP and highly expressed in CC tissues. TUBORF inhibits ferroptosis to promote the malignant proliferation of CC cells.

The important role of the histone acetyltransferases p300/CBP in cancer and the promising anticancer effects of p300/CBP inhibitors.

Department of Ultrasound, Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University, 110004, Shenyang, Liaoning, China.

Histone acetyltransferases p300 (E1A-associated protein p300) and CBP (CREB binding protein), collectively known as p300/CBP due to shared sequence and functional synergy, catalyze histone H3K27 acetylation and consequently induce gene transcription. p300/CBP over-expression or over-activity activates the transcription of oncogenes, leading to cancer cell growth, resistance to apoptosis, tumor initiation and development. The discovery of small molecule inhibitors targeting p300/CBP histone acetyltransferase activity, bromodomains, dual inhibitors of p300/CBP and BRD4 bromodomains, as well as proteolysis-targeted-chimaera p300/CBP protein degraders, marks significant progress in cancer therapeutics.

Primary cilia are sensory organelles that regulate various signaling pathways. When microtubules are compared to a highway, motor proteins carry and transport cargo proteins, which are tuned by post-translational modifications, such as acetylation. However, the role of acetylation in primary cilia regulation remains unclear.

Estrogen-related receptor α (ERRα) is dysregulated in many types of cancer and exhibits oncogenic activity by promoting tumorigenesis and metastasis of cancer cells. However, its defined role in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) has not been fully elucidated. To reveal the biological function of ERRα and determine the underlying regulatory mechanism in RCC, the quantitative proteomics analysis and mechanism investigation were conducted.
