SLFN11 also known as Schlafen family member 11 is an important protein involved in the regulation of cellular response to DNA damage. With a molecular mass of approximately 104 kDa SLFN11 is extensively expressed in tumor cells and certain normal tissues particularly in the spleen thymus and testis. This protein contributes to the modulation of interferon-mediated immune responses and impacts translational control by tRNA activation playing a role in ribosomal assembly and function.
Biological function summary

SLFN11 functions to enhance the sensitivity of cells to DNA-damaging agents including chemotherapeutic drugs. It is important for impairing replication fork stability by inhibiting the expression of trans-translation machinery. SLFN11 serves as an important determinant within the DNA damage response (DDR) network and is known to interact with other DDR proteins emphasizing its impact on genome integrity and cellular survival under stress conditions.

Pathways

SLFN11 plays a notable role within the pathways associated with the DNA damage response and cell cycle regulation. The protein interacts notably with the ATR signaling pathway which is essential for sensing DNA damage. Additionally SLFN11 forms part of a complex interaction with other DNA repair proteins such as BRCA1 influencing the homologous recombination repair pathway contributing to the cellular determination of treatment response.

SLFN11 has significant implications in cancer particularly in the context of treatment response to chemotherapy. Cancers with high SLFN11 expression often exhibit increased sensitivity to cisplatin and other DNA-damaging agents pointing to its potential role as a biomarker for therapeutic efficacy. Moreover the protein is implicated in neurodegenerative disorders like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) where its regulation could contribute to the pathophysiology. Its relationship with proteins such as p53 further highlights SLFN11's involvement in cancer and neuroprotection pathways.

Target data

Inhibitor of DNA replication that promotes cell death in response to DNA damage (PubMed : 22927417, PubMed : 26658330, PubMed : 29395061). Acts as a guardian of the genome by killing cells with defective replication (PubMed : 29395061). Persistently blocks stressed replication forks by opening chromatin across replication initiation sites at stressed replication forks, possibly leading to unwind DNA ahead of the MCM helicase and block fork progression, ultimately leading to cell death (PubMed : 29395061). Upon DNA damage, inhibits translation of ATR or ATM based on distinct codon usage without disrupting early DNA damage response signaling (PubMed : 30374083). Antiviral restriction factor with manganese-dependent type II tRNA endoribonuclease (PubMed : 36115853). A single tRNA molecule is bound and cleaved by the SLFN11 dimer (PubMed : 36115853). Specifically abrogates the production of retroviruses such as human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) by acting as a specific inhibitor of the synthesis of retroviruses encoded proteins in a codon-usage-dependent manner (PubMed : 23000900). Impairs the replication of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) and some Flaviviruses (PubMed : 35105802, PubMed : 36115853). Exploits the unique viral codon bias towards A/T nucleotides (PubMed : 23000900). Also acts as an interferon (IFN)-induced antiviral protein which acts as an inhibitor of retrovirus protein synthesis (PubMed : 23000900).
