Description

Screening method and application of small molecule compound for targeted inhibition of RNA polymerase I
[ technical field ] A method for producing a semiconductor device
The invention relates to a screening method and application of a small molecular compound for targeted inhibition of RNA polymerase I, and belongs to the technical field of molecular cell biology and biochemistry.
[ background of the invention ]
Cancer has been a major problem in the life and health field, and seriously threatens human health. For patients with advanced cancer, chemotherapy is relied upon to maintain survival because most distal organs are inoperable due to tumor invasion. To date, over 250 anticancer drugs have been used in clinical cancer chemotherapy. However, the most common first-line anticancer chemotherapeutic drugs inhibit genomic DNA metabolism or mitosis of the cells, but do not specifically eliminate tumor cells. Therefore, long-term use of these chemotherapeutic drugs can kill normal cells, causing serious side effects, as well as causing drug resistance of tumor cells, resulting in death of patients with advanced cancer. The method for developing and screening the novel anti-cancer drug targeting the tumor has important research and development values.
RNA polymerase I is a potential tumor therapy target. On the one hand, tumor cells can undergo unregulated expansion due to cell cycle disorders, and the massive proliferation of tumor cells must rely on abundant ribosomes to synthesize proteins necessary for proliferation. The synthesis and assembly of ribosomes is dependent on rRNA transcribed by RNA polymerase I, and in almost all tumors, the expression level of RNA polymerase I is much higher than in normal tissues. Therefore, the function of RNA polymerase I is inhibited, the rRNA transcription level is reduced, and the cell nucleus carbohydrate assembly can be blocked, so that proteins required for mass proliferation of tumor cells cannot be provided to play a role in tumor inhibition. On the other hand, since many cancer cells are deficient in DNA damage repair, these cancer cells are abnormally sensitive to the blockade of specific repair pathways. Blocking these pathways can cause death of cancer cells that are deficient in DNA damage repair. It has been proved by research that, in the process of repairing DNA double-strand break, precursor rRNA participates in the recruitment of damage repair factors such as MDC1, γ H2AX, BRCA1, etc., and inhibition of rRNA transcription can block foci formation in the process of DNA double-strand break, so that the repair factors cannot be loaded to the damaged site, thereby blocking repair, and finally leading to unstable cell genome and apoptosis. Screening small molecule inhibitor of RNA polymerase I, inhibiting rDNA transcription, thereby blocking repair of double-strand break of tumor cells and finally inducing death of tumor cells. Therefore, the small-molecule chemotherapeutic drug is used for inhibiting the transcription activity of RNA polymerase I, on one hand, the ribosome biosynthesis can be quickly inhibited, on the other hand, the double-strand break repair pathway of cells is blocked, and the small-molecule chemotherapeutic drug is a novel target with great potential in the aspect of tumor treatment. Therefore, the development of a sensitive and high-flux screening method for the RNA polymerase I inhibitor has important research value.
rRNA is transcribed by rDNA as a template under the action of RNA polymerase I, and the whole process occurs in nucleolus. The nucleolus is located in the nucleus and is usually a single or multiple homogeneous spherical bodies with a round or oval granular structure, without an envelope. The kernel has a three-layer structure and comprises a fiber center, a compact fiber component and a particle component from inside to outside. The fiber center is surrounded by dense fiber components, the main component being rDNA. The dense fiber component consists of dense fibers, which are the site for newly synthesized rRNA and its binding proteins. The particle component consists of ribonucleoprotein particles, which are precursor particles of the mature ribosomal subunits being processed. Processing and maturation of rRNA is dependent on FBL action by rRNA methyltransferase, which is normally distributed evenly in the nucleolus. When RNA polymerase I is abnormal, rDNA transcription is inhibited, and nucleolus is stressed, so that FBL forms 1-3 aggregates with different numbers in nucleolus and transfers to nucleolus edge. According to the invention, heLa cells which can stably express FBL protein with EGFP fluorescent signals are screened out by utilizing the change of the location of FBL in nucleolus when nucleolus is stressed. When the cells are treated by the small molecule inhibitor, the positioning of EGFP fluorescent signals is observed under a fluorescent microscope, so that whether the small molecule can specifically inhibit the activity of RNA polymerase I or not is judged, and whether the rRNA transcription level is inhibited or not is verified by a real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR method.
The traditional screening method of RNA polymerase I small molecule inhibitors is to use recombinant RNA polymerase I in vitro, generate rDNA from P32 labeled ribonucleotide and then perform agarose gel electrophoresis, and evaluate the activity of RNA polymerase I by detecting the radioactive intensity of P32. The method has the following difficulties in the actual operation process: 1. it is difficult to obtain RNA polymerase I protein with good purity and activity; p32 has radioactivity, cannot be operated under general experimental conditions, and has high requirements on laboratory level and operators; 3. the method can not meet the requirement of high-throughput screening, and has complex operation and longer test period.

In order to achieve the purpose, the invention provides a screening method of a small molecule compound for targeted inhibition of RNA polymerase I, which sequentially comprises the following steps: a) Cloning FBL full-length ORF gene; b) Connecting the FBL full-length ORF gene with a pEGFP-C1 vector to obtain a recombinant plasmid; c) Sequencing and verifying the recombinant plasmid to obtain a correct plasmid; d) Right plasmid transfection HeLa cells; e) Screening a HeLa cell capable of stably expressing EGFP-FBL protein; f) Judging whether the EGFP-FBL is aggregated, if not, switching to the step g, and if so, switching to the step h; g) Prompting that the small molecules do not cause nucleolar stress, and are not considered, and then ending; h) Verifying whether the 45S pre-rRNA level is reduced and GAPDH mRNA transcription is not influenced, if so, transferring to the step i, otherwise, ending; i) Small molecule compounds that effectively inhibit RNA polymerase I, denoted Pol Ii, were selected and then terminated.
Preferably, the right plasmid is transfected into the HeLa cell by using a liposome transfection reagent in the step d).
Preferably, lipofectamine 2000 is used as the lipofection reagent in the step d).
Preferably, the step e) is performed 24 hours after transfection, and then the HeLa cells capable of stably expressing the EGFP-FBL protein are obtained by using 0.5mg/ml G418 for screening.
Preferably, the HeLa cells stably expressing the EGFP-FBL protein are prepared into 10 in the step f) 4 Adding 100 mu L/ml of cell suspension into a flat-bottom transparent 96-well cell culture plate, placing the culture plate in a 37 ℃ and 5% carbon dioxide incubator for overnight culture until cells grow completely adherent, preparing 160 small-molecule compound solutions by using DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide), adding a small-molecule compound into each well of cells, treating the cells for 2 hours, and then placing the cells under a fluorescence microscope to observe the distribution of EGFP-FBL fluorescence signals, wherein the EGFP-FBL fluorescence signals are dispersed and uniformly distributed in HeLa nucleolus cells by using 0.1% DMSO as a negative control; with 1 μ M BMH21 treatment as a positive control, EGFP-FBL fluorescence signals aggregated into 1 or more high bright spot signals, distributed at the nucleolar border.
Preferably, the step h) adopts real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR analysis to verify whether the level of 45Spre-rRNA of the cells is remarkably reduced, and the mRNA transcription level of the GAPDH gene does not influence.
In order to achieve the purpose, the invention also provides the application of the RNA polymerase I small molecule inhibitor, and the RNA polymerase I small molecule inhibitor obtained by the method is used for anti-cancer chemotherapeutic drugs.
The invention has the beneficial effects that: compared with the traditional screening method, the invention screens RNA polymerase I small molecule inhibitors by using HeLa cells stably expressing EGFP-FBL protein, screens out small molecules which specifically inhibit the activity of RNA polymerase I, and has no influence on the activity of RNA polymerase II. The method has the advantages of simple operation, high throughput screening, high detection sensitivity and strong specificity of the fluorescent quantitative PCR method. And screening is carried out at the cellular level, so that the activity of the small molecules can be better reflected, meanwhile, the cost of high-throughput screening can be greatly reduced, and the screened RNA polymerase I small molecule inhibitor is expected to be further developed into a novel anti-cancer chemotherapeutic drug targeting RNA polymerase I.

[ detailed description ] embodiments
Referring to FIG. 1, the full-length ORF sequence of the human FBL gene (the full-length ORF sequence of the human FBL gene is referred to NM-001436.4 sequence in NCBI database) was cloned by PCR technique and pEGFP-C1 vector was ligated and the correct plasmid was obtained by sequencing verification. HeLa cells were transfected with the correct plasmid using Lipofectamine 2000 as a lipofection reagent, and 24 hours after transfection, selection was performed using 0.5mg/ml G418, and HeLa cells stably expressing EGFP-FBL protein were obtained. Preparing 10 HeLa cells capable of stably expressing EGFP-FBL protein 4 Cell suspension per ml, 100. Mu.L/well suspension was added to flat-bottom, clear 96-well cell culture plates. The culture plate is placed in an incubator at 37 ℃ and 5% carbon dioxide for culture overnight until the cells are fully attached to the wall and grow. 160 small molecule compounds (160 RNA polymerase I small molecule compounds obtained after virtual screening of ChemDiv compound library) solutions are prepared by DMSO, one small molecule compound is added into each well, the compound concentration is 20 mu M, and the DMSO concentration is not more than 0.1%. Cells were treated for 2 hours and then placed under a fluorescence microscope to observe the distribution of EGFP-FBL fluorescence signals. 0.1% DMSO treatment as a negative pairAccording to the formula, EGFP-FBL fluorescent signals are dispersed and uniformly distributed in HeLa nucleolus, as shown in figure 2; with 1 μ M BMH21 treatment as a positive control, EGFP-FBL fluorescence signals aggregated into 1 or more highlight dots, distributed at the nucleolar border as shown in fig. 3.
After treatment and observation, 2 small molecules capable of obviously changing the EGFP-FBL fluorescence signal positioning are obtained by co-screening: pol Ii-1 and Pol Ii-2 are shown in FIG. 4, which are the results of testing the influence of 2 screened Pol I small molecule inhibitors on the EGFP-FBL localization, and the right structural formula represents the molecular structural formulas of the 2 Pol I small molecule inhibitors respectively. After pol Ii-1 and pol Ii-2 treatment, the EGFP-FBL fluorescence signal is gathered into 1 or more high-light spot signals and distributed at the edge of nucleolus, which indicates that pol Ii-1 and pol Ii-2 treatment can induce nucleolus stress of cells, and the two compounds are possibly RNA polymerase inhibitors. Further real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR analysis shows that after Pol Ii-1 and Pol Ii-2 are treated, the level of 45Spre-rRNA of the cell is obviously reduced, the mRNA transcription level of GAPDH gene is not influenced, as shown in figure 5, 2 Pol I small molecule inhibitors can obviously inhibit the transcription of 45S rRNA and have no influence on the transcription of GAPDH mRNA, which indicates that 2 small molecule inhibitors obtained by screening can inhibit the activity of RNA polymerase I and have no influence on the activity of RNA polymerase II. The pol Ii-1 and pol Ii-2 obtained by screening by the method are suggested to be specific small molecule inhibitors of RNA polymerase I, and are expected to be further developed into novel anti-cancer chemotherapeutic drugs targeting RNA polymerase I.
