doi: 10.1016/j.jare.2025.08.007
Figure Lengend Snippet: KAT2B destroyed HDAC5/LSD1 complex assembly and suppressed FASN transcriptional activity Co-IP assays were performed to verify the interaction strength between wild-type HDAC5 or the K726R mutant and Exportin1 with KAT2B overexpression. (B) Representative immunofluorescence images of wild-type HDAC5, K726R mutant HDAC5, and NES-deleted HDAC5 with KAT2B overexpression in RCC cells. (C-D) Western blots were used to assess HDAC5 and LSD1 expression in RCC cells with KAT2B overexpression or knockdown. (E) The interaction between HDAC5 and LSD1 was determined by Co-IP assays in RCC cells. (F) The interactions between HDAC5 (wild, K726Q, and K726R) and LSD1 were determined by Co-IP assays in 293 T cells. (G) RCC cells were treated with Eltanexor (60 nM) to inhibit Exportin1 activity. The levels of nuclear HDAC5, total HDAC5, Exportin1, and LSD1 were detected using Western blot. (H) Protein stability experiment of LSD1 in RCC cells with KAT2B overexpression after treated with 100 μM cycloheximide (CHX) for 0 h, 1 h, 2 h, 3 h, and 4 h and statistical diagram. (I) Following the addition of chloroquine (10 μM) or MG132 (8 μM) to RCC, LSD1 protein expression was assessed. (J) RCC cells with KAT2B overexpression were immunoprecipitated with LSD1 antibody, and the level of ubiquitin was detected. (K) LSD1 and FASN expression were detected in RCC cells with KAT2B (wild or dead) and/or HDAC5 (wild, 726Q or 726R) overexpression. (L) Schematic diagram illustrating KAT2B-mediated acetylation of HDAC5, promoting its cytoplasmic mislocalization, which resulted in the disruption of the HDAC5-LSD1 complex in the nucleus and subsequent LSD1 degradation.
Article Snippet: KAT2B overexpression and HDAC5 overexpression lentivirus, KAT2B‐targeted shRNA lentivirus, and overexpression plasmids of LSD1 and KAT2B (wild and enzyme-inactivated) was provided by Genechem Co. Ltd (China).
