Tissue Usage Preference and Intrinsically Disordered Region Remodeling of Alternative Splicing Derived Proteoforms in the Heart.

ABSTRACT: A computational analysis of mass spectrometry data was performed to uncover alternative splicing derived protein variants across chambers of the human heart. Evidence for 216 non-canonical isoforms was apparent in the atrium and the ventricle, including 52 isoforms not documented on SwissProt and recovered using an RNA sequencing derived database. Among non-canonical isoforms, 29 show signs of regulation based on statistically significant preferences in tissue usage, including a ventricular enriched protein isoform of tensin-1 (TNS1) and an atrium-enriched PDZ and LIM Domain 3 (PDLIM3) isoform 2 (PDLIM3-2/ALP-H). Examined variant regions that differ between alternative and canonical isoforms are highly enriched in intrinsically disordered regions, and over two-thirds of such regions are predicted to function in protein binding and/or RNA binding. The analysis here lends further credence to the notion that alternative splicing diversifies the proteome by rewiring intrinsically disordered regions, which are increasingly recognized to play important roles in the generation of biological function from protein sequences.

Project description:The TonB system actively transports vital nutrients across the unenergized outer membranes of the majority of Gram-negative bacteria. In this system, integral membrane proteins ExbB, ExbD, and TonB work together to transduce the proton motive force (PMF) of the inner membrane to customized active transporters in the outer membrane by direct and cyclic binding of TonB to the transporters. A PMF-dependent TonB-ExbD interaction is prevented by 10-residue deletions within a periplasmic disordered domain of ExbD adjacent to the cytoplasmic membrane. Here, we explored the function of the ExbD disordered domain in more detail. In vivo photo-cross-linking through sequential pBpa substitutions in the ExbD disordered domain captured five different ExbD complexes, some of which had been previously detected using in vivo formaldehyde cross-linking, a technique that lacks the residue-specific information that can be achieved through photo-cross-linking: two ExbB-ExbD heterodimers (one of which had not been detected previously), previously detected ExbD homodimers, previously detected PMF-dependent ExbD-TonB heterodimers, and for the first time, a predicted, ExbD-TonB PMF-independent interaction. The fact that multiple complexes were captured by the same pBpa substitution indicated the dynamic nature of ExbD interactions as the energy transduction cycle proceeded in vivo In this study, we also discovered that a conserved motif-V45, V47, L49, and P50-within the disordered domain was required for signal transduction to TonB and to the C-terminal domain of ExbD and was the source of motif essentiality.IMPORTANCE The TonB system is a virulence factor for Gram-negative pathogens. The mechanism by which cytoplasmic membrane proteins of the TonB system transduce an electrochemical gradient into mechanical energy is a long-standing mystery. TonB, ExbB, and ExbD primary amino acid sequences are characterized by regions of predicted intrinsic disorder, consistent with a proposed multiplicity of protein-protein contacts as TonB proceeds through an energy transduction cycle, a complex process that has yet to be recapitulated in vitro This study validates a region of intrinsic disorder near the ExbD transmembrane domain and identifies an essential conserved motif embedded within it that transduces signals to distal regions of ExbD suggested to configure TonB for productive interaction with outer membrane transporters.
