Interaction of Aerrie with YBX1 is important for DNA damage signaling. (A) Aerrie-interacting proteins identified by mass spectrometry of RNA-antisense purifications in HUVECs. Identified proteins are plotted against respective IBAQ values. (B–D) HUVECs were treated with gapmeR (gap) targeting Aerrie, siRNA (si) targeting YBX1/2/3 or a respective control. (B) Phosphokinase levels of cell survival-related proteins (n = 4). Red dots are defined as the average level of phosphorylation after silencing knockdown is decreased compared to its respective control. Blue dots are defined as the average level of phosphorylation after silencing knockdown is increased compared to its respective control. (C) Phosphorylation levels of activated proteins in the double-strand break repair pathway were analyzed by western blotting. Phosphorylated ATM at serine 1981, CHK-2 at tyrosine 68, H2AX at serine 139, and P53 at serine 15 were analyzed upon depletion of Aerrie and YBX1 (n > 4). (D) Phosphorylation levels of activated proteins in the single-strand break repair pathway were analyzed by western blotting. Phosphorylated ATR at serine 1989, CHK-1 at serine 317 were analyzed upon depletion of Aerrie and YBX1 (n = 3). *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001; ns, not statistically significant.
