Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE3101: Chitin oligosaccharide induction GSE3102: Crab shell attachment GSE3103: Chitin sensor Abstract: Chitin, an insoluble polymer of GlcNAc, is an abundant source of carbon, nitrogen, and energy for marine microorganisms. Microarray expression profiling and mutational studies of Vibrio cholerae growing on a natural chitin surface, or with the soluble chitin oligosaccharides (GlcNAc)(2-6), GlcNAc, or the glucosamine dimer (GlcN)2 identified three sets of differentially regulated genes. We show that (i) ChiS, a sensor histidine kinase, regulates expression of the (GlcNAc)(2-6) gene set, including a (GlcNAc)2 catabolic operon, two extracellular chitinases, a chitoporin, and a PilA-containing type IV pilus, designated ChiRP (chitin-regulated pilus) that confers a significant growth advantage to V. cholerae on a chitin surface; (ii) GlcNAc causes the coordinate expression of genes involved with chitin chemotaxis and adherence and with the transport and assimilation of GlcNAc; (iii) (GlcN)2 induces genes required for the transport and catabolism of nonacetylated chitin residues; and (iv) the constitutively expressed MSHA pilus facilitates adhesion to the chitin surface independent of surface chemistry. Collectively, these results provide a global portrait of a complex, multistage V. cholerae program for the efficient utilization of chitin. Refer to individual Series

Project description:Crystalline chitin is a kind of high molecular-weight polymers which is difficult to degrade. N-acetylglucosamine and chitooligosaccharides (COSs) are important agriculture, medicine, cosmetics and food resources. Conversion of crystalline chitin to GlcNAc and COSs using recombinant chitinases is an environmentally compatible, reproducible and products controllable method. Here, we report the ability of Pseudoalteromonas flavipulchra DSM 14401 to degrade crystalline.

Project description:O-GlcNAcylation is the modification of serine and threonine residues with beta-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) on intracellular proteins. To investigate the role of protein O-GlcNAcylation on intestinal homeostasis, we generated intestinal epithelial cell (IEC)-specific O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) knockout in mice. The KO mice developed spontanous intestinal inflammation. To determine the underlying molecular mechanisms, we performed RNA sequencing of ileum and colon epithelial cells of wildtype and IEC-OGT KO mice.

Project description:The S. cerevisiae ISR1 gene encodes a putative kinase with no ascribed function. Here, we show that Isr1 acts as a negative regulator of the highly conserved hexosamine biosynthesis pathway (HBP), which converts glucose into uridine diphosphate N-acetylglucosamine (UDP-GlcNAc), the carbohydrate precursor to protein glycosylation, GPI-anchor formation and chitin biosynthesis. Overexpression of Isr1 is lethal and, at lower levels, causes sensitivity to tunicamycin and resistance to calcofluor white, implying impaired protein glycosylation and reduced chitin deposition. GFA1 is the first enzyme in the HBP and is conserved from bacteria and yeast to humans. Isr1 lethality is rescued by overexpression of GFA1 or exogenous glucosamine, which bypasses GFA1's essential function. Gfa1 is phosphorylated in an ISR1-dependent fashion and mutation of Isr1-dependent sites ameliorates the lethality associated with Isr1 overexpression. Isr1 contains a phosphodegron that is phosphorylated by Pho85 and subsequently ubiquitinated by the SCF -Cdc4 complex, largely confining Isr1 protein levels to the time of bud emergence. Mutation of this phosphodegron stabilizes Isr1 and recapitulates the overexpression phenotypes. As Pho85 is a cell cycle and nutrient responsive kinase, this tight regulation of Isr1 may serve to dynamically regulate flux through the HBP and modulate how the cell’s energy resources are converted into structural carbohydrates in response to changing cellular needs.

Project description:A bacterial nursling stool isolate, Bifidobacterium breve UCC2003, encodes two putative sulfatases. The sulfated monosaccharide N-acetylglucosamine-6-sulfate (GlcNAc-6-S) was shown to support growth of B. breve UCC2003, while three other tested sulfated monosaccharides, N-acetylglucosamine-3-sulfate, N-acetylgalactosamine-3-sulfate and N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfate, did not. Using a combination of transcriptomic and functional genomic approaches, a gene cluster, designated ats2, was shown to be specifically required for GlcNAc-6-S metabolism. Transcription of the ats2 cluster is shown to be regulated by a ROK-family transcriptional repressor. Expression profiling by array

Project description:Methylated mammalian promoters are transcriptionally silenced even in the presence of all the factors required for their expression. Repression requires the assembly of a methylation-dependent silencing complex that contains the TRIM28 (also known as KAP1 and TIF1β) protein. An internally controlled interaction screen identified O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine transferase (O-GlcNAc transferase or OGT) as a protein that was complexed with TRIM28 in wild type em-bryonic stem cells but not in Dnmt1-/- cells that had severely demethylated genomes. In the ab-sence of DNA methylation, multiple proteins associated with TRIM28 failed to undergo modifica-tion by N-Acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc). Mass spectrometry identified several of these proteins as known mediators of transcriptional silencing. The most active transposon in the mouse ge-nome is the IAP LTR retrotransposon, which have been previously shown to be repressed by DNA methylation. A Bacteroides O-GlcNAc hydrolase was fused to a catalytically inactive Cas9 and targeted to methylated IAP retrotransposon promoter sequences via IAP-specific guide RNAs; fulminating reactivation of IAP transcription was induced. These data revealed that Glc-NAcylation is directly involved in the transcriptional repression of methylated promoters.

Project description:O-linked-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) has emerged as a critical regulator of diverse cellular processes, but its role in embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and pluripotency has not been investigated. Here we show that O-GlcNAcylation directly regulates core components of the pluripotency network. Blocking O-GlcNAcylation disrupts ESC self-renewal and reprogramming of somatic cells to induced pluripotent stem cells. The core reprogramming factors Oct4 and Sox2 are O-GlcNAcylated in ESCs, but the O-GlcNAc modification is rapidly removed upon differentiation. O-GlcNAc modification of Threonine 228 in Oct4 regulates Oct4 transcriptional activity and is important for inducing many pluripotency related genes, including Klf2, Klf5, Nr5a2, Tbx3 and Tcl1. A T228A point mutation that eliminates this O-GlcNAc modification reduces the capacity of Oct4 to maintain ESC self-renewal and reprogram somatic cells. Overall, our study makes a direct connection between O-GlcNAcylation of key regulatory transcription factors and the activity of the pluripotency network. 2 of E14 stem cell, 2 of embryonic body at day 2, 2 of embryonic body at day 2 treated with streptozotocin, 1 of ZHBTc4 stem cell treated with doxicyclin, and 1 of ZHBTc4 stem cell treated with doxicyclin and streptozotocin were analysed

Project description:Nucleocytoplasmic O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) is an essential post-translational modification that is installed to thousands of protein substrates by O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT). Substrate selection by OGT and its isoforms is primarily mediated by the tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) domain, yet the impact of truncations to the TPR domain on substrate and glycosite selection remains unresolved. Here, we report the effects of TPR truncations on the substrate and glycosite selection of OGT against the model protein GFP-JunB and the surrounding O-GlcNAc proteome in U2OS cells. Truncation of the TPR domain of OGT maintains glycosyltransferase activity but alters subcellular localization in cells. Examination of the glycoproteome across the TPR truncations revealed the broadest substrate activity from the canonical nucleocytoplasmic OGT, with the greatest changes in O-GlcNAc occurring on proteins associated with mRNA splicing processes. Glycosite analysis revealed alterations to the O-GlcNAc consensus sequence globally and differential glycosite selectivity on GFP-JunB as a function of the OGT TPR isoform. This dataset provides a foundation to analyze how perturbations to the TPR domain and expression of OGT isoforms affects the glycosylation of substrates, which will be critical for future protein engineering of OGT, the biology of OGT isoforms, and diseases associated with the TPR domain of OGT.
