Project description:Membrane-associated, integral membrane and secreted proteins are of key importance in many cellular processes. For most of the 28 952 predicted proteins in Arabidopsis, the actual subcellular localisation has not been demonstrated experimentally. So far, their potential membrane-association has been deduced from algorithms that predict transmembrane domains and signal peptides. However, the comprehensiveness and accuracy of these algorithms is still limited. The majority of membrane-associated and secreted proteins is synthesised on membrane-bound polysomes. Therefore, the isolation and characterisation of mRNA associated with membrane-bound polysomes offers an experimental tool for the genome-wide identification of these proteins. Here we describe an efficient method to isolate mRNA from membrane-bound polysomes and report on the validation of the method to enrich for transcripts encoding membrane-associated and secreted proteins. The sensitivity and reproducibility of the isolation method was investigated by DNA microarray analysis. Pearson correlations between transcript levels obtained from three replicate isolations showed that the method is highly reproducible. A significant enrichment for mRNAs encoding proteins containing predicted transmembrane domains and signal peptides was observed in the membrane-bound polysomal fraction. In this fraction, 301 transcripts were classified by gene ontologies as âcellular component unknownâ, and potentially encode previously unrecognised secreted or membrane-associated proteins. Membrane-bound (MBP) and free polysomes (FP) were isolated in triplicate from one batch of two weeks old aboveground parts of Arabidopsis seedlings. Each combination of isolated MBP and FP was applied to 4 microarrays, of which two were dyeswapped, giving a total of 12 arrays.

Project description:The subcellular localization of proteins is critical to their biological roles. Moreover, whether a protein is membrane-bound, secreted, or intracellular affects the usefulness of, and the strategies for, using a protein as a diagnostic marker or a target for therapy. We employed a rapid and efficient experimental approach to classify thousands of human gene products as either membrane-associated/secreted (MS) or cytosolic/nuclear (CN). Using subcellular fractionation methods, we separated mRNAs associated with membranes from those associated with the soluble cytosolic fraction and analyzed these two pools by comparative hybridization to DNA microarrays. Analysis of 11 different human cell lines, representing lymphoid, myeloid, breast, ovarian, hepatic, colon, and prostate tissues, identified more than 5,000 previously uncharacterized MS and more than 6,400 putative CN genes at high confidence levels. The experimentally determined localizations correlated well with in silico predictions of signal peptides and transmembrane domains, but also significantly increased the number of human genes that could be cataloged as encoding either MS or CN proteins. Using gene expression data from a variety of primary human malignancies and normal tissues, we rationally identified hundreds of MS gene products that are significantly overexpressed in tumors compared to normal tissues and thus represent candidates for serum diagnostic tests or monoclonal antibody-based therapies. Finally, we used the catalog of CN gene products to generate sets of candidate markers of organ-specific tissue injury. The large-scale annotation of subcellular localization reported here will serve as a reference database and will aid in the rational design of diagnostic tests and molecular therapies for diverse diseases.

Project description:LC3-associated phagocytosis (LAP) represents a non-canonical function of autophagy proteins in which ATG8 family proteins (LC3 and GABARAP proteins) are lipidated onto single-membrane phagosomes as particles are engulfed by phagocytic cells. LAP plays roles in innate immunity, inflammation and anti-cancer responses and is initiated upon phagocytosis of particles that stimulate Toll-like receptors (TLR), Fc-receptors, and upon engulfment of dying cells. However, how this molecular process is initiated remains elusive. Here we report that receptors that engage LAP enrich phosphatidylserine (PS) in the phagosome membrane via membrane-proximal domains that are necessary and sufficient for LAP to proceed. Subsequently, PS recruits the Rubicon-containing PI3-kinase complex to initiate the enzymatic cascade leading to LAP. Manipulation of plasma membrane PS content, PS-binding by Rubicon, or the PS-clustering domains of receptors prevents LAP and phagosome maturation. Therefore, the initiation of LAP represents a novel mechanism of PS-mediated signal transduction upon ligation of surface receptors.

Project description:In addition to nucleic acids, a variety of biomolecules have been found on the plasma membrane. Whereas, researchers have realized that RNA has the ability to bind to membrane vesicles in vitro and connect to the plasma membrane of the cell. Hence, the combination of high-throughput sequencing and in suit labelling methods provides approaches for large-scale identification of subcellular RNAs. Here, we applied the recently published method APEX-seq, and identified 75 plasma membrane-associated RNAs, of which lncRNA PMAR72 is located around the membrane. In addition, we observed that PMAR72 was concentrated into foci in specific membrane areas. Our findings will provide some new evidence to elaborate the relationship between RNA and the plasma membrane of mammalian cells.
