Full textG-quadruplexes (G4s) are four-stranded structures of nucleic acids (DNA or RNA) that consist of at least two coplanar guanine quartets. An important feature of G4s is their ability to form stable complexes with exogenous small molecules (ligands) and thus influence biological processes in which they are involved. G4 targeting is often associated with oncology, where G4 ligands may suppress the expression of oncogenes, inhibit telomerase, or induce DNA damage in cancer cells. This work aims to develop methodologies for rapid and simple synthesis and screening of compounds, in order to identify selective and highly affine ligands of given non-canonical structures of nucleic acids, in particular G4s. Specifically, this works exploits the chemistry of reversible synthesis of acylhydrazones, which has been barely applied for the development of DNA or RNA ligands before. First, a small library of 20 cationic bis(acylhydrazones), analogues of the previously reported G4-ligands PDC (360A) and PhenDC3, was obtained by preparative synthesis. Through fluorescence melting experiments it is demonstrated that some of compounds indeed have high affinity to G4-DNA, validating the suitability of the acylhydrazone motif as a scaffold for the development of G4 ligands. Next, a method of dynamic combinatorial chemistry (DCC), which consists in simultaneous one-pot generation of libraries of up to 20 compounds with consecutive pull-down of most affine ligands by bead-immobilized targets (i.e., G4-DNA), was developed. By using this method, a non-symmetrical bis(acylhydrazone) was identified as a promising ligand of a parallel G4-DNA Pu24T. However, biophysical experiments with its close structural analogues did not confirm their preferential binding in comparison with the symmetrically substituted compound. It is proposed that the outcome of DCC experiments may be biased by non-specific interactions of ligands with magnetic beads, leading to false-positive results. In order to improve the analysis of dynamic combinatorial libraries, a novel method based on solid-phase extraction of the G4-ligand complex was developed and applied to two libraries of non-symmetric acylhydrazones. In a few rounds of selection, 13 hits were obtained out of 70 in situ generated compounds. Three of them were selected for preparative synthesis and detailed study of interaction with G4-DNA. In parallel, a classical combinatorial chemistry approach was developed, resulting in generation of a combinatorial library of 90 individual bis(acylhydrazone) derivatives in the form of ready-to-use 2 mM solutions in DMSO, with an average purity of 87%. These samples were directly used for biophysical screening experiments towards four G4-DNA targets of three different topologies. Three most active compounds were obtained in preparative manner and their interaction with the mentioned biological targets was studied in detail by several biophysical methods, including native mass spectrometry experiments. This way, at least one derivative with a G4-DNA affinity superior to that of PhenDC3 and unprecedented selectivity towards anti-parallel G4-DNA could be identified. Finally, in the framework of a collaborative project (M. Blondel, University of Western Brittany) the ligands synthesized in this work were studied with respect to their capacity to act as modulators of the immune evasion of Epstein–Barr virus (EBV). Specifically, it was shown that several bis(acylhydrazones) bind in vitro to G4-RNA structures formed by the guanine-rich repeat sequence of mRNA encoding for the glycine-alanine rich (GAr) domain of viral genome maintenance protein EBNA1. Moreover, two derivatives were found to displace the host cell factor nucleolin from EBNA1 mRNA, leading to overexpression of EBNA1 protein and a concomitant increase of antigen presentation in EBV-infected cell cultures. This effect represents an interesting therapeutic opportunity for treatment of EBV-related cancers

Full textCancer development and response to treatments are associated to post-transcriptional rewiring which in turn modifies the cancer proteome qualitatively and/or quantitatively. Post-transcriptional regulation involves RNA binding proteins (RBP) interacting with cis-acting elements like RNA sequences, modifications or structures. Among the cis-regulators, non-canonical structures, called RNA G-Quadruplexes (RG4), and N6-methyladenosines modifications (m6A), play a critical role in shaping post-transcriptional expression of cancer genes and their targeting is currently investigated in pre-clinical studies. One major challenge in the field lies in understanding the mechanisms controlling selectivity in m6A deposition, reading and removal, as well as deciphering RG4 folding and regulators. Whether m6A and RG4 colocalize and regulate each other remains to be fully investigated. Another key challenge is to link RG4-protein interactions in transcripts to cancer-relevant biological functions by leveraging predictions of RG4 structuration and experimental data on RG4 and RBP.My thesis project tackled these two challenges centered on the cis- and trans- regulation of RG4s, using multidisciplinary approaches including bioinformatics, molecular and cellular biology. To globally map and characterize RG4 trans-acting regulators, we developed QUADRatlas (https://rg4db.cibio.unitn.it), a database of experimentally-derived and computationally predicted RG4 in the human transcriptome, linked with their biological function and disease associations (Bourdon et al, NAR, 2023). This work provides a broad access to a manually curated catalogue of known RG4-binding proteins, complemented with an extensive RBP binding sites dataset to discover new potential RG4-RBP interactions. Our study on the interplay between RG4 and m6A revealed their colocalization in the human coding transcriptome. We demonstrated in vitro that RG4 stability was not inhibited by m6A presence. However, we showed that the stabilisation of RG4 decreased global m6A level in cancer cell lines. To explain this effect, we studied the ability of RBP to bind RG4, m6A or RG4 containing m6A (RG4(m6A)) and found that RG4 could act as a platform for m6A binding proteins and thus regulate their presence on transcripts. This work provides insights on the co-regulation of two major mRNA cis-acting elements by RBP. Future analyses will then be needed to unravel the effect of RG4(m6A) colocalization on cancer gene expression

Resumo: G-Quadruplexes são estruturas secundárias presentes nas moléculas de DNA e RNA, os quais são formados pelo empilhamento de G-quartetos (interação de quatro guaninas (G-tratos) delimitadas por ligações de hidrogênio do tipo Hoogsteen. O intron 1 do gene PAX9 humano tem um G-quadruplex formado na região localizada perto do exon 1, que é conservada entre os mamíferos placentários. Análises de Dicroísmo Circular (CD), e CD melting mostraram que estas sequências são capazes de formar estruturas quadruplex altamente estáveis. Devido à proximidade da estrutura quadruplex ao limite éxon-íntron foi utilizado um ensaio validado de splicing duplo repórter e PCR em tempo real para analisar o seu papel na eficiência de splicing. O quadruplex humano mostrou ter um papel chave na eficiência de splicing do íntron 1 do gene PAX9, já que uma mutação que aboliu a formação do quadruplex diminuiu drasticamente a eficiência de splicing. O quadruplex de rato, menos estável, mostrou menor eficiência quando comparado com sequências humanas. Além disso, o tratamento com 360A, um forte ligante que estabiliza estruturas quadruplex, aumentou ainda mais a eficiência de splicing do íntron 1 do PAX9 humano. Em conjunto estes resultados fornecem evidências de que as estruturas de G-quadruplex estão envolvidas na eficiência de splicing do intron 1 do gene PAX9
Abstract: G-Quadruplex are secondary structures present in DNA and RNA molecules, which are formed by stacking of G-quartets (i.e. interaction of four guanines (G-tracts) bounded by Hoogsteen hydrogen bonding). Human PAX9 intron 1 has a putative G-quadruplex- forming region located near exon 1, which is conserved among placental mammals. Using Circular Dichroism (CD) analysis, and CD melting we showed that this region is able to form highly stable quadruplex structures. Due to the proximity of the quadruplex structure to exon-intron boundary we used a validated double reporter splicing assay and real time PCR to analyze its role on splicing efficiency. The human quadruplex was shown to have a key role on splicing efficiency of PAX9 intron 1, as a mutation that abolished quadruplex formation decreased dramatically splicing efficiency. The less stable, rat quadruplex had a less efficient splicing when comparing to human sequences. Additionally, the treatment with 360A, a strong ligand that stabilizes quadruplex structures, further increased splicing efficiency of human PAX9 intron 1. Altogether these results provide evidences that G-quadruplex structures are involved in splicing efficiency of PAX9 intron 1

Full textGlioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is one of the most aggressive brain tumors with poor prognosis. Understanding the molecular mechanisms involved in the development and resistance to treatments of gliomas could improve treatment efficiency. Recently, it has been demonstrated that translational regulations play a key role in the GBM aggressivity. RNA binding proteins (RBP) are major regulators of these processes and have altered expression / activity in GBM. The RBP hnRNP H and hnRNP F (HF) are among the most overexpressed RBP in GBM and their role in GBM translational regulation has never been investigated yet. We hypothesize that HF are at the core of a post-transcriptional regulation network which impacts the translational machinery that controls GBM tumor development and resistance to treatment. We have demonstrated that hnRNP H and hnRNP F regulate proliferation and response to treatment because their depletion (i) decreases the GBM proliferation (cell line model, spheroid and in vivo xenografts), (ii) activates the DNA damage response pathways and (iii) sensitizes the GBM cells to irradiation. We have identified HF as new regulators of GBM translation. Indeed, our data show that hnRNP H and hnRNP F control mRNA translation by regulating expression/activity of initiation factors and in collaboration with RNA helicases by targeting mRNA involved in oncogenic processes and containing secondary structures called G-quadruplex in their 5'UTR. The data that we have generated suggest that HF are essential translational regulators involved in tumor development and resistance to treatment in GBM

Full textThe aim of this thesis work was to study the interactions of small molecules with multiple structures of quadruplex DNA via i) the development and use of a high-throughput test for the analysis of ligand-quadruplex DNA interactions and screening of chemical libraries and ii) the preparation of compounds with multiple binding modes (stacking/groove, covalent/non-covalent, etc..) selective (quadruplex vs. duplex and intra-quadruplex) and possibly functionalized (biotin, fluorophore, etc.). The first part of the work was focused on the development of the G4-FID (G-quadruplex Intercalator Fluorescent Displacement) assay, which is a semi-quantitative method for evaluating the affinity and selectivity of small molecules for quadruplex DNA by displacing an off/on probe, the Thiazole Orange (TO). The test has been implemented successfully with microplate (HT-G4-FID). On the other hand, we have shown the importance of alternative fluorophores, TO-PRO-3 and Hoechst 33258, with complementary spectral characteristics. This method of analysis has also been successfully used for the identification of new selective ligands of quadruplex DNA and the identification of structure-activity relationships and structural selectivities. The second part of the work was devoted to the preparation and study of new DNA quadruplex ligands. These ligands possess particular characteristics either in their mode of interaction (grooves, coordination) or by their bifunctionality (biotinylated, fluorescent). We have prepared an acyclic polyheteroaryle quadruplex ligand (TOxaPy) with an unexpected selectivity for certain structures of quadruplex DNA. Furthermore, we showed that complexes of terpyridine derivatives can be tailored by changing the organic ligand and / or the metal in order to interact with quadruplex DNA by covalent and / or non-covalent interaction

Full textMRNA translation and protein synthesis are tightly regulated events in the cell. Mechanisms describing these key cellular events involve the mRNA sequence and its structure with the association of RNA-binding protein to it, as well as the quality of the translation product encoded by the mRNA, assessed notably through ribosome-associated quality control. In this context, the Epstein-Barr virus EBNA1 (Epstein-Barr Nuclear Antigen 1) mRNA translation regulation is an interesting example. EBNA1 is known to be an essential protein for the virus survival in the host cells. Even though EBNA1 is present in every infected cell, its protein level is remarkably low. As EBNA1 is highly antigenic, it has been suggested that EBNA1 levels in the cells are low enough to escape the immune system of the host, but sufficient to maintain EBV infection. This balance requires a tightly controlled EBNA1 production. Further studies showed that the GAr (glycine-alanine repeat) domain, located in the N-terminal part of EBNA1, triggers an in cis mechanism leading to the inhibition of the translation initiation of its own mRNA, without affecting translation of other mRNAs in the cell. Thus, the GAr domain of EBNA1 is a unique tool to study selective mRNA translation control without affecting general protein synthesis. It was previously shown that RNA G4 (G-quadruplex) structures can be folded in the GAr-encoding mRNA. Numerous studies underlined the importance of these RNA structures in the regulation of EBNA1 mRNA translation, and the team previously showed that nucleolin can interact with these RNA G4 structures, interaction which can be competed by some G4 ligands. However, it was also formerly shown that the GAr peptide itself plays a role in controlling in cis the translation of EBNA1-encoding mRNA, rather than just the RNA sequence. The main focus of the study presented here is to shed light on how this translation event and the fate of the encoding mRNA are regulated in cis by the mRNA and the encoded nascent polypeptide. In line with the fact that RNA G4 structures are highly dynamic, we first showed that GAr RNA G4-associated functions, namely mRNA localisation, translation and ability to bind RNA-binding proteins, are dependent on the context they are in, i.e. their position in the mRNA, the structures in their surrounding or the factors binding the mRNA, such as G4 ligands. We next demonstrated that translation of the EBNA1 mRNA is necessary for nucleolin-binding to it, meaning that the translation event modifies some properties of the EBNA1 mRNA. In parallel, we showed that the NACA, a subunit of the NAC chaperone complex, is detached from the ribosome and interacts with the GAr polypeptide. Interestingly, the NACA is also an RNA binding protein in addition to its chaperone function, and is determinant for the future processing of the EBNA1 mRNA. Finally, and unexpectedly, we show that translation initiation factors are also key players in the downregulation of the EBNA1 mRNA translation, affecting also the mRNA nucleolin-binding capacity, the most effective translation initiation factor in the downregulation of EBNA1 mRNA translation identified so far being eIF4A1. These results support the idea that both the RNA sequence and structure and the corresponding nascent polypeptide are involved in the downregulation of EBNA1 mRNA translation. However, it does not rule out the possibility that both the RNA structure and the polypeptide sequence trigger also their own separated inhibitory pathway. As viruses use components already present in the cells to maintain themselves, the cellular biology elements brought out here can provide insights on many other pathologies in addition to EBV-associated diseases
