Inhibition of Hsp72-mediated protein refolding by 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal.

ABSTRACT: A proteomic approach was applied to liver cytosol from rats fed a diet consisting of high fat and ethanol to identify 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4-HNE)-modified proteins in vivo. Cytosolic Hsp72, the inducible variant of the Hsp70 heat shock protein family, was consistently among the proteins modified by 4-HNE. Despite 1.3-fold induction of Hsp72 in the livers of ethanol-fed animals, no increase in Hsp70-mediated luciferase refolding in isolated heptocytes was observed, suggesting inhibition of this process by 4-HNE. A 50% and 75% reduction in luciferase refolding efficiency was observed in rabbit reticulocyte lysate (RRL) supplemented with recombinant Hsp72 which had been modified in vitro with 10 and 100 microM 4-HNE, respectively. This observation was accompanied by a 25% and 50% decrease in
