Body language: the function of PML nuclear bodies in apoptosis regulation

Abstract: Promyelocytic leukaemia (PML) nuclear bodies (NBs) are macromolecular nuclear domains present in virtually every mammalian cell. PML nuclear bodies (PML-NBs) were functionally linked to various fundamental cellular processes, including transcriptional control, tumour suppression and apoptosis regulation. Supporting the important function of PML and its associated NBs in apoptosis regulation, several apoptotic regulators localise to PML-NBs, and cells from PMLdeficient mice show severe apoptotic defects, includ… Show more

“…The PML protein has first been described as the causal agent in acute promyelocytic leukaemia as a fusion with the RARa receptor generated by the chromosomal translocation t(15;17) (Ascoli and Maul, 1991;de The et al, 1991;Kakizuka et al, 1991;Chang et al, 1992;Goddard et al, 1992;Kastner et al, 1992;Pandolfi et al, 1992;Dyck et al, 1994;Koken et al, 1994;Weis et al, 1994;Melnick and Licht, 1999;. Since these initial findings, it has become evident that PML is a general tumour suppressor frequently deregulated in various tumour types (Gurrieri et al, 2004) most presumably involving secondary effects of PML bodies as sites of protein degradation (Lallemand-Breitenbach et al, 2001), transcriptional regulation (Li et al, 2000;Zhong et al, 2000), cellular senescence (Ferbeyre et al, 2000;Pearson et al, 2000;Bischof et al, 2002;Langley et al, 2002), tumour suppression (Salomoni and Pandolfi, 2002;Salomoni et al, 2008), DNA repair (Bischof et al, 2001;Carbone et al, 2002), apoptosis (Hofmann and Will, 2003;Takahashi et al, 2004) and epigenetic regulation (Torok et al, 2009). Interestingly, functional inactivation of the E1B-55K leucine-rich nuclear export sequence (NES) induces enhanced posttranslational modification of E1B-55K by the small ubiquitin-related modifier 1 (SUMO1) at lysine 104 (SUMO-conjugation motif, SCM) as well as augments transformation of primary rat cells involving the accumulation of p53, E1B-55K and PML in subnuclear aggregates (Endter et al, 2001(Endter et al, , 2005.…”

“…5 g and h, these experiments clearly demonstrated an increased association of DAXX with FADD after liberation from the PML NBs in RA SFs. Discussion SUMO-1 acts as a posttranslational regulator of different signaling pathways and is involved in the formation of PML NBs (12,13). Overexpression of SUMO-1 has been associated with alterations in apoptosis (7), but the mechanisms that mediate these effects and particularly their relevance for disease conditions are unclear.…”
