Summary: Retarded growth and neurodegeneration are hallmarks of the premature aging disease Cockayne syndrome (CS). Cockayne syndrome proteins take part in the key step of ribosomal biogenesis, transcription of RNA polymerase I. Here, we identify a mechanism originating from a disturbed RNA polymerase I transcription that impacts translational fidelity of the ribosomes and consequently produces misfolded proteins. In cells from CS patients, the misfolded proteins are oxidized by the elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS) and provoke an unfolded protein response that represses RNA polymerase I transcription. This pathomechanism can be disrupted by the addition of pharmacological chaperones, suggesting a treatment strategy for CS. Additionally, this loss of proteostasis was not observed in mouse models of CS. : Cockayne syndrome is a devastating childhood progeria. Here, Alupei et al. show that cells from CS patients have reduced translation accuracy and elevated ROS, leading to generation of unstable proteins and activation of ER stress. Reducing ER stress by chemical chaperones in these cells rescues RNA polymerase I activity and protein synthesis. Keywords: Cockayne syndrome, RNA polymerase I, translation fidelity, ER stress, unfolded protein response |
