Expression data from mitochondrial protease ClpP knock-out mice.

ABSTRACT: The peptidase ClpP is conserved from bacteria to human. In the mitochondrial matrix, it multimerizes and forms a macromolecular proteasome-like cylinder. Because of its known relevance for the mitochondrial unfolded protein response during cell stress, we characterized two ClpP knock-out mouse founder lines and documented similar phenotypes. Ubiquitously, ClpP absence led to accumulation of its interactor protein ClpX without transcript upregulation. Interestingly, most wild-type tissues with substantial ClpP amounts had no detectable ClpX. This inverse correlation suggests that ClpX levels and degradation are regulated by ClpP. The expectation of similar protein levels, in view of a reported association of heptameric ClpP rings with hexameric ClpX rings, was confirmed only in testis of wild-type animals. Germline tissue was exceptional also in its vulnerability to ClpP deletion, with both founder lines showing complete infertility for males and females. Otherwise, ubiquitous mitochondrial dysfunction was apparent from severe growth retardation and reduced spontaneous motor activity of the animals, and from a pronounced decrease in pre-/postnatal survival. Spermatogenesis was found aborted at the spermatid stage, acrosomes and axonemes were not formed. Overall, tissue-specific roles of ClpP were evident by this massive effect for germ cells, mild bioenergetic deficits in muscle and liver tissues, and excellent compensation in brain. ClpX was previously reported to chaperone unfolded proteins and also DNA condensation in mitochondria, so it is likely that this pathway is particularly susceptible in germ cells. In conclusion, our study indicates that the role of ClpP in quality control is indispensable during development for cells with rapid changes of mitochondrial numbers, and is relevant during aging for growth and survival of the organism.

The caseinolytic peptidase P (CLPP) is conserved from bacteria to humans. In the mitochondrial matrix, it multimerizes and forms a macromolecular proteasome-like cylinder together with the chaperone CLPX. In spite of a known relevance for the mitochondrial unfolded protein response, its substrates and tissue-specific roles are unclear in mammals. Recessive CLPP mutations were recently observed in the human Perrault variant of ovarian failure and sensorineural hearing loss. Here, a first characte ...[more]

Project description:As the second most frequent neurodegenerative disorder of old age, ParkinsonM-bM-^@M-^Ys disease (PD) can result from autosomal dominant causes like increased alpha-synuclein (SNCA) dosage, or from autosomal recessive causes like PINK1 loss-of-function. Interactions between these triggers and their potential convergence onto shared pathways are crucial to understand, but currently conflicting evidence exists. Here, we crossed previously characterized mice with A53T-SNCA overexpression and mice with PINK1 deletion to generate double mutants (DM). We studied their lifespan and behavior, together with histological and molecular anomalies at late and early ages, respectively. DM animals showed potentiated phenotypes in comparison to both single mutants (SM), with markedly reduced survival after age 450 days and strongly reduced spontaneous movements from age 3 months onwards. A considerable part of DM animals manifested progressive paralysis at ages >1 year and also exhibited protein aggregates with immunoreactivity for pSer129-SNCA, p62, and ubiquitin in spinal cord and basal brain, contrasting with absence of such features from SM. A brain proteome quantification of ubiquitination sites documented altered degradation of SNCA and the DNA-damage marker H2AX at age 18 months. Global brain transcriptome profiles and qPCR validation experiments identified many consistent transcriptional dysregulations already at age 6 weeks, which were absent from SM. The observed downregulations for Dapk1, Dcaf17, Rab42 and upregulations for Dctn5, Mrpl9, Tmem181a, Xaf1 reflect changes in ubiquitination, mitochondrial / synaptic / microtubular dynamics, and DNA damage. Thus, our study confirmed that SNCA-triggered neurotoxicity is exacerbated by the absence of PINK1, and identified a novel molecular signature that is detectable early in the course of this double pathology.
