Translational control by RPL22L1-specific ribosomes enhances DNA repair and chemoresistance
Listed in NCBI GEO
Ribosome heterogeneity has emerged as a regulatory layer in gene expression, yet its biological roles in cancers remain poorly characterized.
Description
Here, we identify RPL22L1, a paralog of the ribosomal protein RPL22, as a key modulator of DNA damage response (DDR) in colorectal cancer cells. DNA damage induces RPL22L1 upregulation and ribosomal incorporation, forming RPL22L1-specific ribosomes.
Ribosome profiling reveals that RPL22L1-containing ribosomes preferentially translate mRNAs with highly structured 5’ untranslated region (5’UTR). In particular, RPL22L1 enhances the translation of ATRX through a cap-independent mechanism. ATRX subsequently recruits DNA-PKcs to DNA damage sites, thereby enhancing the DNA repair capacity.

RPL22L1 loss creates exploitable DDR vulnerabilities, sensitizing cancer cells to cisplatin and PARP inhibitors in vitro and in vivo. Collectively, these findings uncover a specialized ribosome-mediated translational program in DDR and highlight RPL22L1 as a potential therapeutic target in DDR-based cancer therapy.
