Endonuclease domain-containing 1 protein (ENDOD1)

Target
ENDOD1
Molecular classification
Enzyme (specifically, DNA/RNA non-specific endonuclease family), Other (multi-pass transmembrane protein with roles connecting to immunity and DNA repair)
01

Overview

Endonuclease domain-containing 1 protein (ENDOD1) is a multi-pass transmembrane enzyme, part of the DNA/RNA non-specific endonuclease family, encoded by the ENDOD1 gene. It is predicted to function as a DNase and RNase and is involved in DNA single-strand break repair. ENDOD1 modulates the innate immune response via the cGAS-STING pathway, interacting with RNF26, and can localize to both the cytoplasm and, under stress conditions, the nucleus. Loss of ENDOD1 causes synthetic lethality in tumors with TP53 mutations and in homologous recombination-defective backgrounds, making it an emerging candidate for cancer therapies designed on synthetic lethality principles[1][2][3][5][10][11].

Mechanism of action

Synthetic lethality (hypothetical strategy: inhibition of ENDOD1 in cancers harboring TP53 mutations causes lethal DNA repair defects and cell death) Potential modulation of DNA repair by influencing PARP association and cGAS-STING pathway

03

Biological functions

DNA single-strand break repairInnate immune response modulation (via cGAS-STING pathway, by interaction with RNF26)DNase and RNase activityNucleic acid bindingCell cycle regulation (including cell proliferation control)
04

Disease associations

Cancer (ENDOD1 deficiency is synthetic lethal with TP53 mutations, suggesting potential in targeting cancers with TP53 loss)Other (potential modulation in immune responses, given role in cGAS-STING pathway)
05

Safety considerations

DNA repair inhibition overlap (systemic inhibition may theoretically impact normal tissues with high DNA repair demands)Potential immunological effects (given its role in innate immune signaling, modulation may have immune-related safety concerns, though these are not well described to date)
06

Interacting drugs

None identified to date (as of current knowledge, there are no marketed drugs or clinical-stage compounds that directly target ENDOD1)
07

Biomarkers

TP53 mutational status (tumors with TP53 mutations are especially sensitive to ENDOD1 loss and could serve as an efficacy biomarker for ENDOD1-targeted approaches)
