Heterochromatin protein 1α: a hallmark of cell proliferation relevant to clinical oncology

Abstract: Mammalian cells contain three closely related heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1) isoforms, HP1α, β and γ, which, by analogy to their unique counterpart in Schizosaccharomyces pombe, have been implicated in gene silencing, genome stability and chromosome segregation. However, the individual importance of each isoform during normal cell cycle and disease has remained an unresolved issue. Here, we reveal that HP1α shows a proliferation-dependent regulation, which neither HP1β nor γ display. During transient cell cyc… Show more

“…This conclusion is in line with and generalizes the previous observation that the overexpression of factors restricting chromatin dynamics such as HP1-a (De Koning et al, 2009) could highly stimulate oncogenesis.…”

“…The sequences of the siRNA duplexes used (MWG eurofins) were as follows: siLuciferase (control), CGU ACG CGG AAU ACU UCG A; 35 siHP1α, #1-CCT GAG AAA AAC TTG GAT T used in the majority of the experiments 36 and organisms could help to deepen our understanding of the mechanistic basis of such an opposite behavior of HP1 paralogs on HDR efficiency. In particular, it will be important to consider how the ability of HP1 paralogs to heterodimerize 7 might impact on their contribution to DNA repair.…”

“…Although generally ubiquitous in normal tissue, differential expression of each HP1 isoform has been observed in both human tumor derived tissues and cells. [3][4][5][6][7][8][9] The pattern of expression for HP1 isoforms in solid tumors appears to vary with the tumor context. 3,5,7,9,10 Loss of HP1b expression has been reported in poorly differentiated colon cancers, invasive melanoma lesions, and prostate cancer.…”
