Optogenetic Clustering of Human IRE1 Reveals Differential Regulation of Transcription and mRNA Splice Isoform Abundance by the UPR

ABSTRACT: Inositol-requiring enzyme 1 (IRE1) is one of three known sensor proteins that respond to homeostatic perturbations in the metazoan endoplasmic reticulum. The three sensors collectively initiate an intertwined signaling network called the Unfolded Protein Response (UPR). Although IRE1 plays pivotal roles in human health and development, understanding its specific contributions to the UPR remains a challenge due to signaling crosstalk from the other two stress sensors. To overcome this problem, we engineered a light-activatable version of IRE1 and probed the transcriptomic effects of IRE1 activity in isolation from the other branches of the UPR. We demonstrate that 1) oligomerization alone is sufficient to activate IRE1 in human cells, 2) IRE1’s transcriptional response evolves substantially under prolonged activation, and 3) the UPR induces major changes in mRNA splice isoform abundance in an IRE1-independent manner. Our data reveal previously unknown targets of IRE1 transcriptional regulation and direct degradation. Additionally, the tools developed here will be broadly applicable for precise dissection of signaling networks in diverse cell types, tissues, and organisms.

A role for the ribosome-associated complex in activation of the IRE1 branch of UPR

Project description:The ubiquitous ribosome-associated complex (RAC) is a chaperone that spans ribosomes, making contacts near both the polypeptide exit tunnel and the decoding center, a position prime for sensing and coordinating translation and folding. Loss of RAC is known to result in growth defects and sensitization to translational and osmotic stresses. However, the physiological substrates of RAC and the mechanism(s) by which RAC is involved in responding to specific stresses in higher eukaryotes remain obscure. Data presented here uncover an essential function of mammalian RAC in the unfolded protein response (UPR). Knockdown of RAC sensitizes mammalian cells to ER stress and selectively interferes with IRE1 branch activation. Higher-order oligomerization of the IRE1α kinase/endoribonuclease depends upon RAC. These results reveal a surveillance function for RAC in the UPR: modulating IRE1α clustering as required for endonuclease activation and splicing of the substrate Xbp1 mRNA.

Natural killer cell proliferation requires canonical IRE1 function during viral infection (CITE-Seq)

Project description:The unfolded protein response (UPR) aims to restore ER homeostasis under conditions of high protein folding load, a function primarily serving secretory cells. Additional, non-canonical UPR functions have recently been unraveled in immune cells. We addressed the function of the inositol-requiring-enzyme 1 (IRE1) signaling branch of the UPR in NK cells in homeostasis and microbial challenge. Cell-intrinsic compound deficiency (DKO) of IRE1 and its downstream transcription factor XBP1 in NKp46 + NK cells, did not affect basal NK cell homeostasis, or overall outcome of viral MCMV infection. However, mixed bone marrow chimeras revealed a competitive advantage in the proliferation of IRE1 sufficient Ly49H + NK cells after viral infection. CITE-Seq analysis confirmed strong induction of IRE1 early upon infection, concomitant with the activation of a canonical UPR signature. Therefore, we conclude that cell-intrinsic IRE1/XBP1 activation is required for NK cell proliferation early upon viral infection, as part of a canonical UPR response.

Unfolded protein response in wildtype, ire1, gcn4, gcn2

Project description:We measured steady-state mRNA levels by microarray hybridization, comparing WT, (delta)ire1, (delta)gcn4, and (delta)gcn2 cells treated with 2 mM DTT for 30 min (by which time the UPR is qualitatively complete) to untreated samples of the same genotype. WT cells were taken as a positive control for UPR induction, and (delta)ire1 cells as a negative control. Fold change in expression of a given gene was computed as the ratio of mRNA level in the treated sample to the level in an untreated sample of the same genotype. Values reported here are the log2 fold change. Keywords = unfolded protein response Keywords = UPR Keywords = ire1 Keywords = gcn4 Keywords = gcn2

IRE1 inhibitor [RNA-seq]

Project description:The role of the unfolded protein response (UPR) in the cellular innate response to RSV infection is not fully understood. To better the genomic targets for the IRE1-XBP1 pathway, RNA seq was conducted on RSV-infected small airway cells in the absence or presence of RSV infection and in the absence or presence of a selective IRE1a RNAse inhibitor. We identified expression changes in ~3.2K genes; of these, 279 required IRE1 and were enriched in IL-10 signaling and cytokine signaling pathways. These data indicate that IRE1a-XBP1s regulates genes important in epithelial mesenchymal transition, hexosamine biosynthesis and anti-viral signaling.

Pharmacologic IRE1/XBP1s Activation Confers Targeted ER Proteostasis Reprogramming

Project description:Activation of the IRE1/XBP1s signaling arm of the unfolded protein response (UPR) is a promising strategy to correct defects in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) proteostasis implicated in diverse diseases. However, no pharmacologic activators of this pathway identified to date are suitable for ER proteostasis remodeling through selective activation of IRE1/XBP1s signaling. Here, we use high-throughput screening to identify non-toxic compounds that induce ER proteostasis remodeling through IRE1/XBP1s activation. We employ transcriptional profiling to stringently confirm that our prioritized compounds selectively activate IRE1/XBP1s signaling without activating other cellular stress-responsive signaling pathways. Furthermore, we demonstrate that our compounds improve ER proteostasis of destabilized variants of amyloid precursor protein (APP) through an IRE1-dependent mechanism and reduce APP-associated mitochondrial toxicity in cellular models. These results establish highly-selective IRE1 activating compounds that can be widely employed to define the functional importance of IRE1/XBP1s activity for ER proteostasis regulation in the context of health and disease.

IRE1 and XBP-1 effects on the Drosophila unfolded protein response

Project description:The unfolded protein response (UPR) allows the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to recover from the accumulation of misfolded proteins, in part by increasing its folding capacity. IRE1 promotes this remodeling by detecting misfolded ER proteins and activating a transcription factor, XBP-1, through endonucleolytic cleavage of its mRNA. We found that IRE1 independently mediated the rapid degradation of a specific subset of mRNAs. The arrays deposited here show the effects of depletion of IRE1 and XBP-1 on UPR induction in S2 cells. We have characterized the IRE1-dependent repressive branch of this response. Keywords: stress response, RNAi, DTT

The UPR Transducer IRE1 Promotes Breast Cancer Malignancy by Degrading Tumor Suppressor microRNAs

Project description:To understand the mechanistic basis by which inositol-requiring enzyme 1 (IRE1) is involved in luminal breast cancer malignancy, we analyzed the transcriptomic signature that IRE1 regulates in breast cancer. We suppressed the activity of IRE1 RNase in luminal breast cancer SUM52 line by adenoviral-based over-expression of the IRE1 dominant-negative K599A or K907A, and then performed RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis with IRE1 dominant-negative and control SUM52 cells. Through the RNA-seq analysis, we identified 98 genes that were commonly upregulated (65 genes) or downregulated (33 genes) in K599A-expressing SUM52 (SUM52-K599A) or K907A-expressing SUM52 (SUM52-K907A) cells.

Identification of a Selective Pharmacologic IRE1/XBP1s Activator with Enhanced Tissue Exposure

Project description:Activation of the IRE1/XBP1s signaling arm of the unfolded protein response (UPR) has emerged as a promising strategy to mitigate etiologically-diverse diseases. Despite this promise, few compounds are available to selectively activate IRE1/XBP1s signaling to probe the biologic and therapeutic implications of this pathway in human disease. Recently, we identified the compound IXA4 as a highly-selective activator of protective IRE1/XBP1s signaling. While IXA4 has proven useful for increasing IRE1/XBP1s signaling in cultured cells and mouse liver, the utility of this compound is restricted by its limited activity in other tissues. To broaden our ability to pharmacologically interrogate the impact of IRE1/XBP1s signaling in vivo, we sought to identify IRE1/XBP1s activators with greater tissue activity than IXA4. We re-analyzed ‘hits’ from the high throughput screen used to identify IXA4, selecting compounds from structural classes not previously pursued. We then performed global RNAseq to confirm that these compounds showed transcriptome-wide selectivity for IRE1/XBP1s activation. Functional profiling revealed compound IXA62 as a selective IRE1/XBP1s activator that reduced A secretion from CHO7PA2 cells and enhanced glucose-stimulated insulin secretion from rat insulinoma cells, mimicking the effects of IXA4 in these assays. IXA62 robustly and selectively activated IRE1/XBP1s signaling in the liver of mice dosed compound intraperitoneally or orally. In treated mice, IXA62 showed broader tissue activity, relative to IXA4, inducing expression of IRE1/XBP1s target genes in additional tissues such as kidney and lung. Collectively, our results designate IXA62 as a selective IRE1/XBP1s signaling activating compound with enhanced tissue activity, which increases our ability to pharmacologically probe the biologic significance and potential therapeutic utility of enhancing adaptive IRE1/XBP1s signaling in vivo.
