Abstract
The distal portion of chromosome 1p is one of the most commonly affected regions in human cancer. In this study of hereditary and sporadic colorectal cancer, a region of frequent deletion was identified at 32.2 centimorgans from 1ptel. Deletion breakpoints clustered in the vicinity of or inside the gene RIZ , which encodes a retinoblastoma protein-interacting zinc finger protein. Sequence analysis revealed frequent frameshift mutations of the RIZ gene. The mutations consisted of 1- or 2-bp deletions of a coding (A) 8 or (A) 9 tract and were confined to microsatellite-unstable colorectal tumors, being present in 9 of 24 (37.5%) primary tumors and in 6 of 11 (54.5%) cell lines; in 2 cell lines the mutation was homozygous/hemizygous. The mutations apparently were selected clonally in tumorigenesis, because similar poly(A) tracts in other genes were not affected. Two alternative products of the gene exist, RIZ1, which contains a PR ( P RDI-BF1- R IZ1) domain implicated in tumor suppressor function, and RIZ2, which is lacking this motif. Furthermore, the C-terminal region, which contains the poly(A) tracts, includes a PR-binding motif, possibly mediating interactions with other proteins or with RIZ itself (oligomerization). Four of eleven microsatellite-unstable colorectal cancer cell lines, three of which had frameshifts, showed reduced or absent mRNA expression of RIZ1. In a cell line that is homozygous/hemizygous for the typical frameshift mutation, immunoblotting showed truncated RIZ protein, whereas adenovirus-mediated RIZ1 expression caused G 2 /M arrest and apoptosis. We propose that RIZ is a target of the observed 1p alterations, with impairment of the PR domain-mediated function through either frameshift mutation or genomic deletion.
