ABSTRACT

Radioresistance is one of the main causes of cancer treatment failure, which leads to relapse and inferior survival outcome of cancer patients. Liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) of proteins is known to be involved in various biological processes, whereas its role in the regulation of radiosensitivity remains largely unknown. In this study, we characterized NONO, an RNA/DNA binding protein with LLPS capacity, as an essential regulator of tumor radioresistance. In vitro assay showed that NONO involved in DNA repair via non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) manner. NONO knockout significantly reduced DNA damage repair and sensitized tumor cells to irradiation in vitro and in vivo. NONO overexpression was correlated with an inferior survival outcome in cancer patients. Mechanically, NONO was associated with nuclear EGFR (nEGFR). Both irradiation and EGF treatment indu ced nEGFR accumulation, thereby increased the association between NONO and nEGFR. However, NONO was not a substrate of EGFR kinase. Furthermore, NONO promoted DNA damage-induced DNA-PK phosphorylation at T2609 by enhancing the interaction between EGFR and DNA-PK. Importantly, NONO protein formed high concentration LLPS droplets in vitro, and recruited EGFR and DNA-PK. Disruption of NONO droplets with LLPS inhibitor significantly reduced the interaction between EGFR and DNA-PK, and suppressed DNA damage-induced phosphorylation of T2609-DNA-PK. Taken together, LLPS of NONO recruits nuclear EGFR and DNA-PK and enhances their interaction, further increases DNA damage-activated pT2609-DNA-PK and promotes NHEJ-mediated DNA repair, finally leads to tumor radioresistance. NONO phase separation-mediated radioresistance may serve as a novel molecular target to sensitize tumor cell to radiotherapy.
