Cheng F, et al. Brain. 2022 Nov 21;145(11):3968-3984. doi: 10.1093/brain/awac001. Brain. 2022. PMID: 35015830 Free article.
However, how THAP1 mutations lead to these gene expression alterations and whether the gene expression changes are also reflected in the brain of THAP1 patients are still unclear. In this study we used epigenetic and transcriptomic approaches combined with multiple …

The DYT6 dystonia causative protein THAP1 is responsible for proteasome activity via PSMB5 transcriptional regulation.
Wang Y, Wang Y, Iriki T, Hashimoto E, Inami M, Hashimoto S, Watanabe A, Takano H, Motosugi R, Hirayama S, Sugishita H, Gotoh Y, Yao R, Hamazaki J, Murata S. Wang Y, et al. Nat Commun. 2025 Feb 14;16(1):1600. doi: 10.1038/s41467-025-56867-x. Nat Commun. 2025. PMID: 39952963 Free PMC article.
We demonstrated that THAP1 directly regulates the expression of the PSMB5 gene, which encodes the central protease subunit beta5. Depletion of THAP1 disrupts proteasome assembly, leading to reduced proteasome activity and the accumulation of ubiquitinated proteins. …

Dystonia due to pathogenic variants in the THAP1 gene (DYT-THAP1) shows variable expressivity and reduced penetrance of ~ 50%. Since THAP1 encodes a transcription factor, modifiers influencing this variability likely operate at the gene expression level. ...R …

RESULTS: We identified potentially disease-causing variants in the established dystonia genes (PRKRA, SGCE, KMT2B, SLC2A1, GCH1, THAP1, HPCA, TSPOAP1, AOPEP; n=11 families (26%)), in the uncommon forms of dystonia-associated genes (PCCB, CACNA1A, ALDH5A1, PRKN; n=4 familie …

Mapping the landscape of genetic dependencies in chordoma.
Sharifnia T, Wawer MJ, Goodale A, Lee Y, Kazachkova M, Dempster JM, Muller S, Levy J, Freed DM, Sommer J, Kalfon J, Vazquez F, Hahn WC, Root DE, Clemons PA, Schreiber SL. Sharifnia T, et al. Nat Commun. 2023 Apr 6;14(1):1933. doi: 10.1038/s41467-023-37593-8. Nat Commun. 2023. PMID: 37024492 Free PMC article.
This approach confirms a known chordoma dependency, TBXT (T; brachyury), and identifies a range of additional dependencies, including PTPN11, ADAR, PRKRA, LUC7L2, SRRM2, SLC2A1, SLC7A5, FANCM, and THAP1. CDK6, SOX9, and EGFR, genes previously implicated in chordoma biology …

Loss-of-function mutations in the dystonia gene THAP1 impair proteasome function by inhibiting PSMB5 expression.
Ramage DE, Grant DW, Timms RT. Ramage DE, et al. Nat Commun. 2025 Feb 10;16(1):1511. doi: 10.1038/s41467-025-56782-1. Nat Commun. 2025. PMID: 39929834 Free PMC article.
Exploiting the fact that the toxicity associated with loss of THAP1 can be rescued upon exogenous expression of PSMB5, we define the transcriptional targets of THAP1 through RNA-seq analysis and perform a deep mutational scan to systematically assess the function of …
