Proteomic characterization of Mycobacterium tuberculosis subjected to carbon starvation

ABSTRACT Mycobacterium tuberculosis(Mtb) is the causative agent of tuberculosis (TB), the leading cause of infectious disease-related deaths worldwide. TB infections present on a spectrum from active to latent disease. In the human host,Mtbfaces hostile environments, such as nutrient deprivation, hypoxia, and low pH. Under these conditions,Mtbcan enter a dormant, but viable, state characterized by a lack of cell replication and increased resistance to antibiotics. DormantMtbposes a major challenge to curing infections and eradicating TB globally. We subjectedMtbmc 2 6020 (ΔlysAand ΔpanCD), a double auxotrophic strain, to carbon starvation (CS), a culture condition that induces growth stasis and mimics environmental conditions associated with dormancyin vivo. We provide a detailed analysis of the proteome in CS compared to replicating samples. We observed extensive proteomic reprogramming, with 36% of identified proteins significantly altered in CS. Many enzymes involved in oxidative phosphorylation and lipid metabolism were retained or more abundant in CS. The cell wall biosynthetic machinery was present in CS, although numerous changes in the abundance of peptidoglycan, arabinogalactan, and mycolic acid biosynthetic enzymes likely result in pronounced remodeling of the cell wall. Many clinically approved anti-TB drugs target cell wall biosynthesis, and we found that these enzymes were largely retained in CS. Lastly, we compared our results to those of other dormancy models and propose that CS produces a physiologically distinct state of stasis compared to hypoxia inMtb. IMPORTANCE Tuberculosis is a devastating human disease that kills over 1.2 million people a year. This disease is caused by the bacterial pathogenMycobacterium tuberculosis(Mtb).Mtbexcels at surviving in the human host by entering a non-replicating, dormant state. The current work investigated the proteomic changes thatMtbundergoes in response to carbon starvation, a culture condition that models dormancy. The authors found broad effects of carbon starvation on the proteome, with the relative abundance of 37% of proteins significantly altered. Protein changes related to cell wall biosynthesis, metabolism, and drug susceptibility are discussed. Proteins associated with a carbon starvation phenotype are identified, and results are compared to other dormancy models, including hypoxia.

Integrative SP3 Workflow for Multi-PTM Proteomics Profiling (TZ-DP0)

The goal of the experiment was to demonstrate that the optimized multiplexed multi-PTM profiling workflow can comprehensively and quantitatively capture dynamic changes in protein abundance, cysteine oxidation, phosphorylation, and acetylation in cytokine-induced inflammatory stress in mouse pancreatic ß-cells. Global proteomic, redox proteomic, phosphoproteomic, and acetylomic were data collected from mouse Beta-TC-6 pancreatic Beta-cells, untreated (mock) and cytokine-treated Beta-cells at 4, 8, and 24 hours with 4 biological replicates. Samples were digested with trypsin and Lys-C, then analyzed by LC-MS/MS. Data were searched with MS-GF+, MASIC, and MaxQuant using PNNL's DMS processing pipeline.

Membrane lipid and expression responses of Saccharolobus islandicus REY15A to acid and cold stress

Archaea adjust the number of cyclopentane rings in their glycerol dibiphytanyl glycerol tetraether (GDGT) membrane lipids as a homeostatic response to environmental stressors such as temperature, pH, and energy availability shifts. However, archaeal expression patterns that correspond with changes in GDGT composition are less understood. Here we characterize the acid and cold stress responses of the thermoacidophilic crenarchaeon Saccharolobus islandicus REY15A using growth rates, core GDGT lipid profiles, transcriptomics and proteomics. We show that both stressors result in impaired growth, lower average GDGT cyclization, and differences in gene and protein expression. Transcription data revealed differential expression of the GDGT ring synthase grsB in response to both acid stress and cold stress. Although the GDGT ring synthase encoded by grsB forms highly cyclized GDGTs with ≥5 ring moieties, S. islandicus grsB upregulation under acidic pH conditions did not correspond with increased abundances of highly cyclized GDGTs. Our observations highlight the inability to predict GDGT changes from transcription data alone. Broader analysis of transcriptomic data revealed that S. islandicus differentially expresses many of the same transcripts in response to both acid and cold stress. These included upregulation of several biosynthetic pathways and downregulation of oxidative phosphorylation and motility. Transcript responses specific to either of the two stressors tested here included upregulation of genes related to proton pumping and molecular turnover in acid stress conditions and upregulation of transposases in cold stress conditions. Overall, our study provides a comprehensive understanding of the GDGT modifications and differential expression characteristic of the acid stress and cold stress responses in S. islandicus.

Listeria monocytogenes requires cellular respiration for NAD+ regeneration and pathogenesis

Cellular respiration is essential for multiple bacterial pathogens and a validated antibiotic target. In addition to driving oxidative phosphorylation, bacterial respiration has a variety of ancillary functions that obscure its contribution to pathogenesis. We find here that the intracellular pathogen Listeria monocytogenes encodes two respiratory pathways which are partially functionally redundant and indispensable for pathogenesis. Loss of respiration decreased NAD + regeneration, but this could be specifically reversed by heterologous expression of a water-forming NADH oxidase (NOX). NOX expression fully rescued intracellular growth defects and increased L. monocytogenes loads >1000-fold in a mouse infection model. Consistent with NAD + regeneration maintaining L. monocytogenes viability and enabling immune evasion, a respiration-deficient strain exhibited elevated bacteriolysis within the host cytosol and NOX expression rescued this phenotype. These studies show that NAD + regeneration represents a major role of L. monocytogenes respiration and highlight the nuanced relationship between bacterial metabolism, physiology, and pathogenesis.

An Activity-Based Oxaziridine Platform for Identifying and Developing Covalent Ligands for Functional Allosteric Methionine Sites: Redox-Dependent Inhibition of Cyclin-Dependent Kinase 4

Activity-based protein profiling (ABPP) is a versatile strategy for identifying and characterizing functional protein sites and compounds for therapeutic development. However, the vast majority of ABPP methods for covalent drug discovery target highly nucleophilic amino acids such as cysteine or lysine. Here, we report a methionine-directed ABPP platform using Redox-Activated Chemical Tagging (ReACT), which leverages a biomimetic oxidative ligation strategy for selective methionine modification. Application of ReACT to oncoprotein cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4) as a representative high-value drug target identified three new ligandable methionine sites. We then synthesized a methionine-targeting covalent ligand library bearing a diverse array of heterocyclic, heteroatom, and stereochemically rich substituents. ABPP screening of this focused library identified 1oxF11 as a covalent modifier of CDK4 at an allosteric M169 site. This compound inhibited kinase activity in a dose-dependent manner on purified protein and in breast cancer cells. Further investigation of 1oxF11 found prominent cation-π and H-bonding interactions stabilizing the binding of this fragment at the M169 site. Quantitative mass-spectrometry studies validated 1oxF11 ligation of CDK4 in breast cancer cell lysates. Further biochemical analyses revealed cross-talk between M169 oxidation and T172 phosphorylation, where M169 oxidation prevented phosphorylation of the activating T172 site on CDK4 and blocked cell cycle progression. Finally, by identifying a new mechanism for allosteric methionine redox regulation on CDK4 and developing a unique modality for its therapeutic intervention, this work showcases a generalizable platform that provides a starting point for engaging in broader chemoproteomics and protein ligand discovery efforts to find and target previously undruggable methionine sites.

EGLP-1 lowers body weight better than exendin-4 by reducing food intake and increasing basal energy expenditure in diet-induced obese mice

It is well known that GLP-1 activates GLP-1R to reduce body weight by inhibiting eating. GLP-1 is cleaved by the neutral endopeptidase (NEP) 24.11 into a pentapeptide GLP-1 (32–36) amide, which increases basal energy expenditure and inhibits weight gain in obese mice. It is well known that GLP-1 analogs can reduce weight by suppressing eating. However, there are few reports of reducing weight through the dual effects of inhibiting eating and increasing basic energy. Here, we report the peptide EGLP-1, a GLP-1 analogue, which can reduce food intake and increase basal energy expenditure. In C2C12 myotubes, EGLP-1 can increase both phosphorylation of acetyl CoA carboxylase (ACC) and the ratio between phosphorylation of ACC and the total expression of ACC (pACC/ACC). In diet-induced obese mice, EGLP-1 is more effective than exendin-4 in reducing body weight, reducing fat mass and improving hepatic steatosis. At the same time, EGLP-1 can improve hyperglycemia, reduce food intake, and improve insulin resistance, just like exendin-4. In addition, EGLP-1, not exendin-4, can improve physiological parameters associated with lipid metabolism and increase oxygen consumption by increasing uncoupling proteins 3 (UCP3) expression and pACC/ACC ratio in skeletal muscle. Taken together, this data showed that EGLP-1 is able to reduce body weight by reducing food intake and increasing basal energy expenditure, suggesting it may be more effective in treating diabetic and non-diabetic overweight or obese people than pure GLP-1R agonist exendin-4.

Genetic encoding of 3–nitro–tyrosine reveals the impacts of 14–3–3 nitration on client binding and dephosphorylation

14–3–3 proteins are central hub regulators of hundreds of phosphorylated “client” proteins. They are subject to over 60 post–translational modifications (PTMs), yet little is known how these PTMs alter 14–3–3 function and its ability to regulate downstream signaling pathways. An often neglected, but well–documented 14–3–3 PTM found under physiological and immune–stimulatory conditions is the conversion of tyrosine to 3–nitro–tyrosine at several Tyr sites, two of which are located at sites considered important for 14–3–3 function: Y130 (β–isoform numbering) is located in the primary phospho–client peptide–binding groove, while Y213 is found on a secondary binding site that engages with clients for full 14–3–3/client complex formation and client regulation. By genetically encoding 3–nitro–tyrosine, we sought to understand if nitration at Y130 and Y213 effectively modulated 14–3–3 structure, function, and client complexation. The 1.5 Å resolution crystal structure of 14–3–3 nitrated at Y130 showed the nitro group altered the conformation of key residues in the primary binding site, while functional studies confirmed client proteins failed to bind this variant of 14–3–3. But, in contrast to other client–binding deficient variants, it did not localize to the nucleus. Further, the 1.9 Å resolution structure of 14–3–3 nitrated at Y213 revealed unusual flexibility of its C–terminal α–helix resulting in domain swapping, suggesting additional structural plasticity though its relevance is not clear as this nitrated form retained its ability to bind clients. Collectively, our data suggest that nitration of 14–3–3 will alter downstream signaling systems, and if uncontrolled could result in global dysregulation of the 14–3–3 interactome.

Nitrogen limitation causes a seismic shift in redox state and phosphorylation of proteins implicated in carbon flux and lipidome remodeling in Rhodotorula toruloides

Background: Oleaginous yeast are prodigious producers of oleochemicals, offering alternative and secure sources for applications in foodstuff, skincare, biofuels, and bioplastics. Nitrogen starvation is the primary strategy used to induce oil accumulation in oleaginous yeast as part of a global stress response. While research has demonstrated that post-translational modifications (PTMs), including phosphorylation and protein cysteine thiol oxidation (redox PTMs), are involved in signaling pathways that regulate stress responses in metazoa and algae, their role in oleaginous yeast remain understudied and unexplored. Results: Towards linking the yeast oleaginous phenotype to protein function, we integrated lipidomics, redox proteomics, and phosphoproteomics to investigate Rhodotorula toruloides under nitrogen-rich and starved conditions over time. Our lipidomics results unearthed interactions involving sphingolipids and cardiolipins with ER stress and mitophagy. Our redox and phosphoproteomics data highlighted the roles of the AMPK, TOR, and calcium signaling pathways in regulation of lipogenesis, autophagy, and oxidative stress response. As a first, we also demonstrated that lipogenic enzymes including fatty acid synthase are modified as a consequence of shifts in cellular redox states due to nutrient availability. Conclusions: We conclude that lipid accumulation is largely a consequence of carbon rerouting and autophagy governed by changes to PTMs, and not increases in the abundance of enzymes involved in central carbon metabolism and fatty acid biosynthesis. Our systems-level approach sets the stage for acquiring multidimensional data sets for protein structural modeling and predicting the functional relevance of PTMs using Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML). Coupled to those bioinformatics approaches, the putative PTM switches that we delineate will enable advanced metabolic engineering strategies to decouple lipid accumulation from nitrogen limitation.

Mathematical Model of ATM Activation and Chromatin Relaxation by Ionizing Radiation

We propose a comprehensive mathematical model to study the dynamics of ionizing radiation induced Ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) activation that consists of ATM activation through dual mechanisms: the initiative activation pathway triggered by the DNA damage-induced local chromatin relaxation and the primary activation pathway consisting of a self-activation loop by interplay with chromatin relaxation. The model is expressed as a series of biochemical reactions, governed by a system of differential equations and analyzed by dynamical systems techniques. Radiation induced double strand breaks (DSBs) cause rapid local chromatin relaxation, which is independent of ATM but initiates ATM activation at damage sites. Key to the model description is how chromatin relaxation follows when active ATM phosphorylates KAP-1, which subsequently spreads throughout the chromatin and induces global chromatin relaxation. Additionally, the model describes how oxidative stress activation of ATM triggers a self-activation loop in which PP2A and ATF2 are released so that ATM can undergo autophosphorylation and acetylation for full activation in relaxed chromatin. In contrast, oxidative stress alone can partially activate ATM because phosphorylated ATM remains as a dimer. The model leads to predictions on ATM mediated responses to DSBs, oxidative stress, or both that can be tested by experiments.

Late-life restoration of mitochondrial function reverses cardiac dysfunction in old mice

Diastolic dysfunction is a prominent feature of cardiac aging in both mice and humans. We show here that 8-week treatment of old mice with the mitochondrial targeted peptide SS-31 (elamipretide) can substantially reverse this deficit. SS-31 normalized the increase in proton leak and reduced mitochondrial ROS in cardiomyocytes from old mice, accompanied by reduced protein oxidation and a shift towards a more reduced protein thiol redox state in old hearts. Improved diastolic function was concordant with increased phosphorylation of cMyBP-C Ser282 but was independent of titin isoform shift. Late-life viral expression of mitochondrial-targeted catalase (mCAT) produced similar functional benefits in old mice and SS-31 did not improve cardiac function of old mCAT mice, implicating normalizing mitochondrial oxidative stress as an overlapping mechanism. These results demonstrate that pre-existing cardiac aging phenotypes can be reversed by targeting mitochondrial dysfunction and implicate mitochondrial energetics and redox signaling as therapeutic targets for cardiac aging.

Protective Effect of Phloretin against Hydrogen Peroxide-Induced Oxidative Damage by Enhancing Autophagic Flux in DF-1 Cells

Phloretin (PHL) is a dihydrochalcone flavonoid isolated from the peel and root bark of apples, strawberries, and other plants with antioxidative characteristic. In this study, we aimed to investigate the protective effect and the potential mechanism of PHL on hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced oxidative damage in DF-1 cells. The results showed that PHL exhibited no cytotoxic effect on DF-1 cells at concentration below 20 μM. PHL markedly increased H2O2-reduced cell viability, decreased H2O2-induced apoptosis, as evidenced by reduced apoptosis rate, the upregulation of gene and protein level of Bcl-2, and the downregulation of gene and protein level of Bax and Cleaved caspase3. In addition, PHL reduced H2O2-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and restored antioxidant enzymes activities as well as mitochondrial membrane potential in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, PHL prior to H2O2 further increased LC3-II level, promoted p62 turnover and improved lysosomal function. Importantly, autophagy inhibitor chloroquine (CQ) reversed the protective effect of PHL, and increased H2O2-induced apoptosis. Furthermore, PHL inhibited the phosphorylation levels of ERK, p38, and JNK. Collectively, these results indicate that PHL could attenuate H2O2-induced oxidative injury and apoptosis by maintaining lysosomal function and promoting autophagic flux, and MAPKs pathway may be involved in this process. Our study provides evidence that PHL could as a new strategy to against oxidative damage in poultry industry.

Biogenic-to-lithogenic handoff of particulate Zn affects the Zn cycle in the Southern Ocean

Zinc (Zn) is vital to marine organisms. Its active uptake by phytoplankton results in a substantial depletion of dissolved Zn, and Zn bound to particulate organic matter replenishes dissolved Zn in the ocean through remineralization. However, we found that particulate Zn changes from Zn bound to phosphoryls in cells to recalcitrant inorganic pools that include biogenic silica, clays, and iron, manganese, and aluminum oxides in the Southern Ocean water column. The abundances of inorganic pools increase with depth and are the only phases preserved in sediments. Changes in the particulate-Zn speciation influence Zn bioavailability and explain the decoupling of Zn and phosphorus and the correlation of Zn and silicon in the water column. Here, these findings reveal a new dimension to the ocean Zn cycle, implicating an underappreciated role of inorganic Zn particles and their impact on biological productivity.

A Subunit of ESCRT-III, MoIst1, Is Involved in Fungal Development, Pathogenicity, and Autophagy in Magnaporthe oryzae

The culprit of rice blast, Magnaporthe oryzae , is a filamentous fungus that seriously affects the yield and quality of rice worldwide. MoIst1, a subunit of ESCRT-III, is involved in identified ubiquitinated proteins and transports them into the intraluminal vesicles of multivesicular bodies (MVBs) for degradation in lysosomes. Here, we identify and characterize MoIst1 in M. oryzae . Disruption of MoIst1 leads to a significant decrease in sporulation and formation of appressoria, defects in response to oxidative stress, cell wall stress, hyperosmotic stress, and reduced pathogenicity. Deletion of MoIst1 also caused the decreased Pmk1 phosphorylation levels, appressorium formation, the delayed translocation and degradation of lipid droplets and glycogen, resulting in a decreased appressorium turgor. In addition, deletion of MoIst1 leads to an abnormal autophagy. In summary, our results indicate that MoIst1 is involved in sporulation, appressorium development, plant penetration, pathogenicity, and autophagy in M. oryzae .

The oxidative pentose phosphate pathway in photosynthesis: a tale of two shunts

CO 2 release in the light (R L ) and its presumed source, oxidative pentose phosphate pathways, were found to be insensitive to CO 2 concentration. The oxidative pentose phosphate pathways form glucose 6-phosphate (G6P) shunts that bypass the nonoxidative pentose phosphate reactions of the Calvin–Benson cycle. Using adenosine diphosphate glucose and uridine diphosphate glucose as proxies for labeling of G6P in the stroma and cytosol respectively, it was found that only the cytosolic shunt was active. Uridine diphosphate glucose, a proxy for cytosolic G6P, and 6-phosphogluconate (6PG) were significantly less labeled than Calvin–Benson cycle intermediates in the light. But ADP glucose, a proxy for stromal G6P, is labeled to the same degree as Calvin–Benson cycle intermediates and much greater than 6PG. A metabolically inert pool of sedoheptulose bisphosphate can slowly equilibrate keeping the label in sedoheptulose lower than in other stromal metabolites. Finally, phosphorylation of fructose 6-phosphate (F6P) in the cytosol can allow some unlabeled carbon in cytosolic F6P to dilute label in phosphenolpyruvate. The results clearly show that there is oxidative pentose phosphate pathway activity in the cytosol that provides a shunt around the nonoxidative pentose phosphate pathway reactions of the Calvin–Benson cycle and is not strongly CO 2 -sensitive.

Life strategies for Aminicenantia in subseafloor oceanic crust

Abstract After decades studying the microbial “deep biosphere” in subseafloor oceanic crust, the growth and life strategies in this anoxic, low energy habitat remain poorly described. Using both single cell genomics and metagenomics, we reveal the life strategies of two distinct lineages of uncultivated Aminicenantia bacteria from the basaltic subseafloor oceanic crust of the eastern flank of the Juan de Fuca Ridge. Both lineages appear adapted to scavenge organic carbon, as each have genetic potential to catabolize amino acids and fatty acids, aligning with previous Aminicenantia reports. Given the organic carbon limitation in this habitat, seawater recharge and necromass may be important carbon sources for heterotrophic microorganisms inhabiting the ocean crust. Both lineages generate ATP via several mechanisms including substrate-level phosphorylation, anaerobic respiration, and electron bifurcation driving an Rnf ion translocation membrane complex. Genomic comparisons suggest these Aminicenantia transfer electrons extracellularly, perhaps to iron or sulfur oxides consistent with mineralogy of this site. One lineage, called JdFR-78, has small genomes that are basal to the Aminicenantia class and potentially use “primordial” siroheme biosynthetic intermediates for heme synthesis, suggesting this lineage retain characteristics of early evolved life. Lineage JdFR-78 contains CRISPR-Cas defenses to evade viruses, while other lineages contain prophage that may help prevent super-infection or no detectable viral defenses. Overall, genomic evidence points to Aminicenantia being well adapted to oceanic crust environments by taking advantage of simple organic molecules and extracellular electron transport.

Knocking out the carboxyltransferase interactor 1 (CTI1) in Chlamydomonas boosted oil content by fivefold without affecting cell growth

Summary The first step in chloroplast de novo fatty acid synthesis is catalysed by acetyl‐CoA carboxylase (ACCase). As the rate‐limiting step for this pathway, ACCase is subject to both positive and negative regulation. In this study, we identify a Chlamydomonas homologue of the plant carboxyltransferase interactor 1 (CrCTI1) and show that this protein interacts with the Chlamydomonas α‐carboxyltransferase (Crα‐CT) subunit of the ACCase by yeast two‐hybrid protein–protein interaction assay. Three independent CRISPR‐Cas9 mediated knockout mutants for CrCTI1 each produced an ‘enhanced oil’ phenotype, accumulating 25% more total fatty acids and storing up to fivefold more triacylglycerols (TAGs) in lipid droplets. The TAG phenotype of the crcti1 mutants was not influenced by light but was affected by trophic growth conditions. By growing cells under heterotrophic conditions, we observed a crucial function of CrCTI1 in balancing lipid accumulation and cell growth. Mutating a previously mapped in vivo phosphorylation site (CrCTI1 Ser108 to either Ala or to Asp), did not affect the interaction with Crα‐CT. However, mutating all six predicted phosphorylation sites within Crα‐CT to create a phosphomimetic mutant reduced this pairwise interaction significantly. Comparative proteomic analyses of the crcti1 mutants and WT suggested a role for CrCTI1 in regulating carbon flux by coordinating carbon metabolism, antioxidant and fatty acid β‐oxidation pathways, to enable cells to adapt to carbon availability. Taken together, this study identifies CrCTI1 as a negative regulator of fatty acid synthesis in algae and provides a new molecular brick for the genetic engineering of microalgae for biotechnology purposes.

Elamipretide effects on the skeletal muscle phosphoproteome in aged female mice

The age-related decline in skeletal muscle mass and function is known as sarcopenia. Sarcopenia progresses based on complex processes involving protein dynamics, cell signaling, oxidative stress, and repair. We have previously found that 8-week treatment with elamipretide improves skeletal muscle function, reverses redox stress, and restores protein S-glutathionylation changes in aged female mice. This study tested whether 8-week treatment with elamipretide also affects global phosphorylation in skeletal muscle consistent with functional improvements and S-glutathionylation. Using female 6–7-month-old mice and 28–29-month-old mice, we found that phosphorylation changes did not relate to S-glutathionylation modifications, but that treatment with elamipretide did partially reverse age-related changes in protein phosphorylation in mouse skeletal muscle.
