"PROJECT":{"PROJECT_TITLE":"Micropeptide hSPAR, a glutamine regulator, suppresses tumor growth via TRIM21-P27KIP1-mTOR pathway","PROJECT_SUMMARY":"The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) plays pivotal roles in cancer growth control upon amino acid response. Recently, cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitor cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1B (CDKN1B or P27KIP1) 1 has been reported as a non-canonical inhibitor to mTOR signaling in mouse embryo fibroblasts (MEFs). However, the mechanisms underlying P27KIP1-mTOR axis are yet-to-be uncovered. Here, we find that micropeptide human small regulatory polypeptide of amino acid response (hSPAR）, through its C-terminus (hSPAR-C), inhibits E3 ligase tripartite motif containing 21 (TRIM21)-mediated P27KIP1 degradation and causes P27KIP1’s cytoplasmic accumulation in breast cancer cells. Interestingly, hSPAR/hSPAR-C also serves as an inhibitor to glutamine transporter SLC38A2 and remarkably decreases the cellular glutamine level specifically in cancer cells. The resulted glutamine deprivation sequentially triggers translocation of cytoplasmic P27KIP1 to lysosomes, where P27KIP1 disrupts Ragulator complex and suppresses mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) assembly. Administration of hSPAR or hSPAR-C dramatically impedes breast cancer cell proliferation and xenografic tumor growth. Collectively, we define hSPAR as an intrinsic molecule to control cellular glutamine level and a previously-unidentified tumor suppressor by promoting accumulation and lysosomal-localization of P27KIP1 to inhibit mTORC1 assembly.","INSTITUTE":"University Of Science And Technology Of China","LAST_NAME":"Wang","FIRST_NAME":"Wei","ADDRESS":"Division of Life Sciences and Medicine, 443 Huangshan Road, Hefei city, Anhui Province, 230022, China","EMAIL":"WW571@mail.ustc.edu.cn","PHONE":"18604523231"},

"STUDY":{"STUDY_TITLE":"Micropeptide hSPAR, a glutamine regulator, suppresses tumor growth via TRIM21-P27KIP1-mTOR pathway - HEK293T human embryonic kidney cells","STUDY_SUMMARY":"The microprotein hSPAR can specifically regulate the mTOR signaling activity and cell proliferation in breast cancer cells. However, such regulatory effects of hSPAR are not applicable in HEK293T cells. Metabolic data of amino acids indicate that overexpressing hSPAR does not affect the content of amino acids in HEK293T cells, including glutamine. The metabolic variations in amino acids triggered by hSPAR in different cell types may be the underlying molecular mechanism for the distinct regulatory effects of hSPAR.","INSTITUTE":"University Of Science And Technology Of China","LAST_NAME":"Wang","FIRST_NAME":"Wei","ADDRESS":"443 Huangshan Road, Hefei city, Anhui Province, 230022, China","EMAIL":"WW571@mail.ustc.edu.cn","PHONE":"18604523231"},
