pp32 belongs to a family of leucine-rich acidic nuclear proteins, which play important roles in many cellular processes including regulation of chromatin remodeling, transcription, RNA transport, transformation and apoptosis. pp32 is described as a new tumor suppressor. It is unknown as to how pp32 works in tumor suppression. We found that overexpression of pp32 in human Jurkat T cells inhibits cell growth, and silenced pp32 promotes growth. We first showed that hyperacetylation and hyperphosphorylation of histone H3 are required for T-cell activation. Phosphorylation of histone H3 precedes acetylation during T-cell activation. pp32 specifically binds to histone H3 and blocks its acetylation and phosphorylation. pp32 directly initiates caspase activity and also promotes granzyme A-mediated caspase-independent cell death. Taken together, pp32 plays a repressive role by inhibiting transcription and triggering apoptosis.

Tumor suppressor pp32 represses cell growth through inhibition of transcription by blocking acetylation and phosphorylation of histone H3 and initiating its proapoptotic activity
