復旦大學上海醫學院徐彥輝和陳飛課題合作取得最新進展。他們最新研究提出RNA聚合酶II磷酸酶之整合子- PP2A複合物(INTAC)的鑑定。這一研究成果於2020年11月27日發表在國際頂尖學術期刊《科學》雜誌上。
他們確定了一個包含整合子和蛋白質磷酸酶2A核心酶(PP2A-AC)的複合物,稱為INTAC。3.5埃解析度的結構揭示了九個人類整合子亞基和PP2A-AC組裝成由骨架和肩部模塊形成的十字形中央支架,磷酸酶和核酸內切酶模塊位於相對側。作為非經典的PP2A全酶,INTAC複合物可將RNA聚合酶II的羧基末端重複結構域在絲氨酸2,-5和-7位點去磷酸化,從而調節轉錄。
他們的研究將PP2A的功能擴展到轉錄調控,並揭示了雙重酶活性-RNA裂解和RNA聚合酶II的去磷酸化-在結構和功能上如何整合到INTAC複合物中。
據了解,14亞基後生動物特異性整合子包含一個內切酶,可切割新生的RNA轉錄物。

Abstract: The 14-subunit metazoan-specific Integrator contains an endonuclease that cleaves nascent RNA transcripts. Here, we identified a complex containing Integrator and protein phosphatase 2A core enzyme (PP2A-AC), termed INTAC. The 3.5-angstrom-resolution structure reveals that nine human Integrator subunits and PP2A-AC assemble into a cruciform-shaped central scaffold formed by the backbone and shoulder modules, with the phosphatase and endonuclease modules flanking the opposite sides. As a noncanonical PP2A holoenzyme, the INTAC complex dephosphorylates the carboxy-terminal repeat domain of RNA polymerase II at serine-2, -5, and -7 and thus regulates transcription. Our study extends the function of PP2A to transcriptional regulation and reveals how dual enzymatic activities—RNA cleavage and RNA polymerase II dephosphorylation—are structurally and functionally integrated into the INTAC complex.
