Tumour suppressor SIRT3 deacetylates and activates manganese superoxide dismutase to scavenge ROS.

  • Yaohui Chen‎ et al.
  • EMBO reports‎
  • 2011‎

Mitochondria manganese superoxide dismutase (SOD2) is an important antioxidant enzyme, deficiency of which is associated with various human diseases. The known primary regulation of SOD2 is through transcriptional activation. Here, we report that SOD2 is acetylated at Lys 68 and that this acetylation decreases SOD2 activity. Mitochondrial deacetylase SIRT3 binds to, deacetylates and activates SOD2. Increase of reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels stimulates SIRT3 transcription, leading to SOD2 deacetylation and activation. SOD2-mediated ROS reduction is synergistically increased by SIRT3 co-expression, but is cancelled by SIRT3 depletion. These results reveal a new post-translational regulation of SOD2 by means of acetylation and SIRT3-dependent deacetylation in response to oxidative stress.


PARD3 induces TAZ activation and cell growth by promoting LATS1 and PP1 interaction.

  • Xian-Bo Lv‎ et al.
  • EMBO reports‎
  • 2015‎

The Hippo pathway plays a major role in organ size control, and its dysregulation contributes to tumorigenesis. The major downstream effectors of the Hippo pathway are the YAP/TAZ transcription co-activators, which are phosphorylated and inhibited by the Hippo pathway kinase LATS1/2. Here, we report a novel mechanism of TAZ regulation by the tight junction protein PARD3. PARD3 promotes the interaction between PP1A and LATS1 to induce LATS1 dephosphorylation and inactivation, therefore leading to dephosphorylation and activation of TAZ. The cytoplasmic, but not the tight junction complex associated, PARD3 is responsible for TAZ regulation. Our study indicates a potential molecular basis for cell growth-promoting function of PARD3 by modulating the Hippo pathway signaling in response to cell contact and cell polarity signals.
