Research Projects

  • Analysis of the regulatory mechanisms of Y-family DNA polymerases and its roles in precancerous lesions, SEKIMOTO Takayuki, Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research Grant-in-Aid for Young Scientists (B), Grant-in-Aid for Young Scientists (B), Gunma University, Apr. 2010, Mar. 2012, In precancerous lesions, oncogenic signals induce cellular senescence, causing tumor suppression ; whereas they promote genomic instability, leading to tumor progression. We studied the role of DNA replicative stress in cyclin E over expressed U2OS human cells. Our data suggest that Y family Polymerases play a role in oncogene-induced DNA re-replication., Competitive research funding, 22790306

  • Analysis of oncogene-induced replication stress response patyways, Sekimoto Takayuki; YAMASHITA Takayuki; ODA Tsukasa, Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (C), Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (C), Gunma University, Apr. 2015, Mar. 2018, Principal investigator, Growth of cancer cells relies on their tolerance of oncogene-induced replication stress (RS). Translesion synthesis (TLS) plays an essential role in cellular tolerance of various types of RS. However, limited information is available about the role of TLS polymerases in oncogene-induced RS. Polη, a Y-family TLS polymerase, promotes cellular tolerance of Myc-induced RS. Polη was recruited to Myc-induced RS sites, and Polη depletion enhanced the Myc-induced stalling of replication forks and the subsequent generation of double-strand breaks (DSBs). In the absence of Polη, Myc-induced DSB formation depended on MUS81-EME2, and concomitant depletion of MUS81-EME2 and Polη enhanced RS and cell death in a synergistic manner. Collectively, these results indicate that Polη facilitates fork progression during Myc-induced RS. Additionally, the present study highlights the possibility of a synthetic lethal interaction between Polη and MUS81-EME2 in cells experiencing Myc-induced RS., 15K06825
  • The role of Y-family polymerase in aberrant DNA replication and genomic instability, Yamashita Takayuki; ODA Tsukasa; SEKIMOTO Takayuki, Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (C), Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (C), Gunma University, Apr. 2015, Mar. 2018, Coinvestigator, Growth of neoplastic cells relies on their tolerance to oncogene-induced replication stress (RS). Translesion synthesis (TLS) plays a critical role in cellular tolerance to various types of RS by employing specialized polymerases. Here, we report that Polη, a Y-family TLS polymerase, promotes cellular tolerance to Myc-induced RS. Polη was recruited to Myc-induced RS sites, and Polη depletion enhanced the Myc-induced slowing and stalling of replication forks and the subsequent generation of double-strand breaks (DSBs). In the absence of Polη, Myc-induced DSB formation depended on MUS81-EME2 (the S-phase specific endonuclease complex), and concomitant depletion of MUS81-EME2 and Polη enhanced RS and cell death in a synergistic manner. Collectively, these results indicate that Polη alleviates the Myc-induced RS, and highlight the possibility of synthetic sick or lethal interaction between Polη and MUS81-EME2 in cells experiencing Myc-induced RS., 15K06826
  • Analysis of replication stress responses caused by oncogenic signals, SEKIMOTO Takayuki, Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research Grant-in-Aid for Young Scientists (B), Grant-in-Aid for Young Scientists (B), Gunma University, Apr. 2012, Mar. 2015, Principal investigator, DNA rereplication is a major type of oncogene-induced aberrant replication and plays an important role in genomic instability during tumor development. Rereplication causes DNA double strand breaks, resulting in copy number changes and genomic rearrangements. However, little is known on what DNA polymerases are involved in rereplication. Normal DNA replication is catalyzed by high-fidelity replicative polymerases, Pol ε and Pol δ. Y-family polymerases (Y-Pols) are the major group of low-fidelity polymerases whose main function is bypass of replication blocks at sites of DNA damages, i.e. translesion synthesis. We found that Y-Pols as well as replicative polymerases, participate in rereplication. The present findings have important mechanistic implications in genomic instability during tumorigenesis. Speculatively, the involvement of Y-Pols in rereplication may account for frequent occurrence of single nucleotide variations in conjunction with gene rearrangements in cancer genomes., 24700952

  • Roles of replication stress for cellular senescence and genome instability in preneoplastic lesions, YAMASHITA Takayuki; ODA Tsukasa; SEKIMOTO Takayuki, Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (C), Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (C), Gunma University, Apr. 2011, Mar. 2014, Coinvestigator, In preneoplastic lesions, oncogene-induced replication stress plays a dual role induction of cell senescence/apoptosis and tumor promotion through increased genomic instability. In these processes, oncogene-induced excessive activation of replication origins and consequent rereplication plays a major role. However, little is known about fork progression during rereplication. When rereplication was induced by depletion of geminin, a regulator of origin activation, Pol-eta was recruited to rereplication sites in human cell lines. Similar observations were obtained in cyclin E-induced rereplication in human tumor cells. Furthermore, Pol-eta knockdown suppressed rereplication induced by either geminin depletion or cyclin E expression. Together, our data suggest that Pol-eta participates in oncogene-induced rereplication. These findings provide important mechanistic insights into genomic instability during tumorigenesis., 23501257

  • New understanding and therapeutics of hematopoietic diseases-from a viewpoint of regulatory mechanisms of replicative stress, YAMASHITA Takayuki; ODA Tsukasa; SEKIMOTO Takayuki, Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, Grants-in-Aid for Scientific Research Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (C), Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (C), Gunma University, Apr. 2008, Mar. 2011, Coinvestigator, Fanconi anemia (FA) is genetically heterogeneous inherited bone marrow failure syndrome, characterized by cellular sensitivity to DNA crosslinkers and susceptibility to various types of malignant tumors including acute myeloid leukemia. Increasing evidence indicates that FA proteins protect against "replicative stress" induced by various genotoxic agents, cooperating with other machineries. Translesion DNA synthesis is one of such cellular protective mechanisms, using specialized DNA polymerases including Pol-eta and REV1.However, regulatory mechanism of these polymerases was largely unknown. We identified the molecular chaperone Hsp90 as an essential regulator of these polymerases. The present findings may lead to development of new therapy of hematopoietic diseases., 20591109
