Project description:Defects in mitochondrial metabolism have been increasingly linked with age-onset protein misfolding diseases such as Alzheimerâs, Parkinsonâs, and Huntingtonâs. In response to protein folding stress, compartment-specific unfolded protein responses (UPRs) within the endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, and cytosol work in parallel to ensure cellular protein homeostasis. While perturbation of individual compartments can make other compartments more susceptible to protein stress, the cellular conditions that trigger cross-communication between the individual UPRs remain poorly understood. We have uncovered a conserved, robust mechanism linking mitochondrial protein homeostasis and the cytosolic folding environment through changes in lipid homeostasis. Metabolic restructuring caused by mitochondrial stress or small molecule activators trigger changes in gene expression coordinated uniquely by both the mitochondrial and cytosolic UPRs, protecting the cell from disease-associated proteins. Our data suggest an intricate and unique system of communication between UPRs in response to metabolic changes that could unveil new targets for diseases of protein misfolding. Because the induction of the MCSR due to hsp-6 RNAi required both hsf-1 and dve-1, key transcription factors required for the HSR and UPRmt, respectively, we asked which gene sets are coordinately regulated by both factors. We performed microarray analyses to determine which genes have their expression altered by hsp-6 RNAi and whether these genes are regulated either by hsf-1, dve-1 or both

Project description:The mitochondrial matrix is unique in that it must integrate folding and assembly of proteins derived from nuclear and mitochondrial genomes. In C. elegans, the mitochondrial unfolded protein response (UPRmt) senses matrix protein misfolding and induces a program of nuclear gene expression, including mitochondrial chaperonins, to promote mitochondrial proteostasis. While misfolded mitochondrial matrix-localized ornithine trans-carbamylase (OTC) induces chaperonin expression, our understanding of mammalian UPRmt is rudimentary, reflecting a lack of acute triggers for UPRmt activation. This limitation has prevented analysis of the cellular responses to matrix protein misfolding and the effects of UPRmt on mitochondrial translation to control protein folding loads. Here, we combine pharmacological inhibitors of matrix-localized HSP90/TRAP1 or LON protease, which promote chaperonin expression, with global transcriptional and proteomic analysis to reveal an extensive and acute response of human cells to UPRmt. This response involved widespread induction of nuclear genes, including matrix-localized proteins involved in folding, pre-RNA processing and translation. Functional studies revealed rapid but reversible translation inhibition in mitochondria occurring concurrently with defects in pre-RNA processing due to transcriptional repression and LON-dependent turnover of the mitochondrial pre-RNA processing nuclease MRPP3. This study reveals that acute mitochondrial protein folding stress activates both increased chaperone availability within the matrix and reduced matrix-localized protein synthesis through translational inhibition, and provides a framework for further dissection of mammalian UPRmt. triplicate experiment of 3 conditions (untreated, GTPP treatment, CDDO treatment)

Project description:Mitochondrial functions are largely performed by proteins imported from cytosol. Impaired protein import in mitochondria affects the maintenance of intra-mitochondrial anabolic and energy metabolic pathways. It leads to cytosolic accumulation of mistargeted proteins and activation of cellular stress responses. To explore the communication between these mechanism in mammalian system, we targeted the co-chaperone of mitochondrial Hsp70, a GrpE Like protein 1 (Grpel1), in mice. We show that loss of protein import into mitochondrial matrix results in mitochondrial dysfunction, which triggers stress responses. The total shut down of mtHSP70 function by overall knockout of Grpel1 resulted in early embryonic lethality, and tamoxifen-induced skeletal muscle-specific knockout of Grpel1 caused rapid muscular atrophy. We show here, with transcriptomics analysis, that protein-import failure in mitochondria increased cellular proteotoxic stress due to mitochondrial dysfunction. As a control mechanism, it triggered adaptive stress responses, including unfolded protein responses and integrated stress responses. Metabolic profiling of skeletal muscle-specific knockout mice revealed amino acid and TCA cycle intermediates shuttle between serum and muscle.

Project description:Most mitochondrial proteins are synthesized as cytosolic precursor proteins before being imported into mitochondria. Cytosolic accumulation of mitochondrial precursors hazards cellular fitness and is associated with a growing number of diseases, but is not observed under physiological conditions. Individual mechanisms how cells avoid precursor accumulation outside mitochondria have recently been discovered, but their interplay and regulation have remained elusive. Here we show that cells rapidly launch a global transcriptional program to restore cellular proteostasis after induction of a “clogger” protein that reduces the number of available mitochondrial import sites. Cells upregulate the protein folding and proteolytic systems in the cytosol and downregulate both the cytosolic translation machinery and many mitochondrial metabolic enzymes, presumably to relieve the workload of the overstrained mitochondrial import system. We show that this transcriptional remodeling is a combination of a “wideband” core response regulated by the transcription factors Hsf1 and Rpn4 and a unique mitoprotein-induced downregulation of the OXPHOS components, the most abundant group of precursors. These findings not only depict the first comprehensive model of adaptations to mitochondrial import impairment, but also reveal their regulation, connecting so far isolated stress response mechanisms into a coordinated network of cellular reactions.

Project description:Misfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) activate the unfolded protein response (UPR), which enhances protein folding to restore homeostasis. Additional pathways respond to ER stress, but how they help counteract protein misfolding is incompletely understood. Here, we develop a titratable system for the induction of ER stress in yeast to enable a genetic screen for factors that augment stress resistance independently of the UPR. We identify the proteasome biogenesis regulator Rpn4 and show that it cooperates with the UPR. Rpn4 abundance increases during ER stress, first by a post-transcriptional, then by a transcriptional mechanism. Induction of RPN4 transcription is triggered by cytosolic mislocalization of secretory proteins, is mediated by multiple signaling pathways and accelerates clearance of misfolded proteins from the cytosol. Thus, Rpn4 and the UPR are complementary elements of a modular cross-compartment response to ER stress.

Project description:Endoplasmic reticulum oxidoreductase 1 alpha (ERO1α) is an endoplasmic reticulum stress–related gene, which improves cell perseverance against challenges of high levels of protein misfolding during endoplasmic reticulum stress by retaining good activity of oxidative protein folding. Numerous studies have shown abnormal expression of ERo1α in various diseases, but its downstream target are not fully understood. Our work will help in the elucidation of the downstream molecular mechanism of ERO1α.

Project description:Global protein synthesis is upregulated in cancers, and thus cancer cells are prone to errors in translation, which may lead to protein misfolding and proteotoxic stress. The pathways that maintain protein homeostasis support the transformation and growth of cancer cells. Here, we show that the cytosolic NAD+ synthesis pathway (controlled by NMNAT-2) plays an essential role in ovarian cancer by maintaining protein homeostasis by regulating the activity of PARP-16, that MARylates the ribosomal proteins. Using polysome-RNA Seq analysis, we found that inhibiting ribosomal protein MARylation by knocking down NMNAT-2 or PARP-16 leads to increased association of specific mRNAs with polysomes and enhanced translation of a set of mRNAs that contain specific secondary structures in their 3’UTRs, which leads to protein aggregation. Collectively, our study demonstrates that NMNAT-2 regulates PARP-16 activity and ribosomal protein MARylation, which control protein homeostasis by fine-tuning the levels of protein synthesis in ovarian cancers.
