Accumulated mtDNA mutations specifically impair complex I-linked respiration

ABSTRACT: Oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos) within mitochondria relies on the coordinated synthesis of both nuclear- and mitochondrial-encoded protein subunits comprising the mitochondrial respiratory complexes (Complexes I–V). Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) encodes 13 proteins vital for Complex I, III, IV, and V function. Accumulated mutations in mtDNA are causally linked to aging and several age-related diseases, presumably as a consequence of impaired respiration. However, how high mtDNA mutation burden impinges on cellular bioenergetics across the major organ systems remains only partially resolved. Due to the growing links connecting mtDNA mutations to human pathophysiology, here we leveraged a comprehensive mitochondrial phenotyping platform to assess the phenotypic consequences of increased mtDNA mutation burden across tissues (brown adipose, brain, colon, heart, kidney, liver, lung, and bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells) of the mouse. Remarkably, despite widespread reductions in OxPhos protein expression, mitochondrial respiratory capacity under mixed substrate conditions was largely preserved across tissues. More detailed analysis revealed that NAD-linked respiration exhibited partial functional deficits in most tissues, consistent with functional deficiencies in complex I. In contrast, respiration routed from CII-CIII-CIV-CV remained intact. Together, these findings highlight Complex I as the primary functional consequence of mtDNA mutational load.

Transcription profiling of S. cerevisiae following the deletion of succinate dehydrogenase

Project description:Background; Mitochondrial respiration is an important and widely conserved cellular function in eukaryotic cells. The succinate dehydrogenase complex (SDH-complex) plays an important role in respiration as it connects the mitochondrial respiratory chain to the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle where it catalyzes the oxidation of succinate to fumarate. Cellular response to the SDH-complex dysfunction (i.e. impaired respiration) thus has important implications not only for biotechnological applications but also for understanding cellular physiology underlying metabolic diseases such as diabetes. We therefore explored the physiological and transcriptional response of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to the deletion of SDH3, that codes for an essential subunit of the SDH-complex. Results; Although the SDH-complex has no direct role in transcriptional regulation and the flux through the corresponding reaction under the studied conditions is very low, deletion of SDH3 resulted in significant changes in the expression of several genes involved in various cellular processes ranging from metabolism to the cell-cycle. By using various bioinformatics tools we explored the organization of these transcriptional changes in the metabolic and other cellular functional interaction networks. Conclusions; Our results show that the transcriptional regulatory response resulting from the impaired respiratory function is linked to several different parts of the metabolism, including fatty acid and sterol metabolism.

Transcription profiling of yeast rho0 cells (complete deletion of the mitochondrial genome), in cells with either a single defective enzyme or several, vs cells after prolonged treatment with the bc1 inhibitors myxothiazol or antimycin to analyse respiratory defects

Project description:The mitochondrial respiratory chain is composed of lipoprotein complexes imbedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane. This chain of enzymes transfers electrons from NADH and FADH2, provided from divers metabolic pathways, to oxygen. It couples the transfer of electrons to the translocation of protons across the membrane. Several clinical syndromes have been associated with respiratory dysfunction caused by mitochondrial or nuclear mutations. A number of mutations in the mitochondrial genes encoding for cytochrome b (CYTB) and cytochrome oxidase (COX 1, 2 and 3) have been linked with diseases. We are using yeast mutants to characterize the deleterious effect of mutations reported in patients on the assembly and catalytic properties of the affected enzymes, and to study the impact of mutations in nuclear genes, such as OXA1, encoding for factors required for the assembly of the respiratory complexes. In this work, we monitored the effects of the mutations causing respiratory defect on the whole genome expression. We compared the change in gene expression in rho0 cells (with a complete deletion of the mitochondrial genome, and by consequence without respiratory chain), in cells with either a single defective enzyme or several, and in cells after prolonged treatment with the bc1 inhibitors myxothiazol or antimycin. The impact of the mutations on the respiratory function ranged from mild to severe. The expression of approx. 350 genes was changed in at least one mutant. Cluster analysis was performed using the Cluster program (Eisen, 1998, PNAS 95:14863). Four groups of genes were studied in more details: Group A, the most repressed genes; Group B, the most over-expressed genes; Group C, genes more repressed in rho0 and Doxa1 cells; and Group D, genes more over-expressed in Doxa1.

GNPS - Tumour mitochondrial DNA mutations drive aerobic glycolysis to enhance checkpoint blockade

Project description:The mitochondrial genome encodes essential machinery for respiration and metabolic homeostasis but is paradoxically among the most common targets of somatic mutation in the cancer genome, with truncating mutations in respiratory complex I genes being most over-represented1. While mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations have been associated with both improved and worsened prognoses in several tumour lineages, whether these mutations are drivers or exert any functional effect on tumour biology remains controversial. Here we discovered that complex I-encoding mtDNA mutations are sufficient to remodel the tumour immune landscape and therapeutic resistance to immune checkpoint blockade. Using mtDNA base editing technology we engineered recurrent truncating mutations in the mtDNA-encoded complex I gene, Mt-Nd5, into murine models of melanoma. Mechanistically, these mutations promoted utilisation of pyruvate as a terminal electron acceptor and increased glycolytic flux driven by an over-reduced NAD pool and NADH shuttling between GAPDH and MDH1, mediating a Warburg-like metabolic shift. In turn, without modifying tumour growth, this altered cancer cell-intrinsic metabolism reshaped the tumour microenvironment promoting an anti-tumour immune response characterised by loss of resident neutrophils. This subsequently sensitised tumours bearing high mtDNA mutant heteroplasmy to immune checkpoint blockade, with phenocopy of key metabolic changes being sufficient to mediate this effect. Strikingly, patient lesions bearing >50% mtDNA mutation heteroplasmy also demonstrated a >2.5-fold improved response rate to checkpoint inhibitor blockade. Taken together these data nominate mtDNA mutations as functional regulators of cancer metabolism and tumour biology, with potential for therapeutic exploitation and treatment stratification.

Mitochondrial contact site and cristae organizing system promotes modular assembly of cytochrome c oxidase

Project description:Mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase, the complex IV of the respiratory chain, is assembled in a modular fashion from mitochondrial- as well as nuclear-encoded subunits, guided by numerous assembly factors. This intricate process is further complicated by the characteristic architecture of the inner mitochondrial membrane with its functional asymmetry. The mitochondrial contact site and cristae organizing system (MICOS) maintains the stability of crista junctions that connect the cristae, the site of mitochondrial respiration, with the inner boundary membrane where newly imported respiratory subunits first arrive. Here, we report that MICOS facilitates specific assembly steps of complex IV and associates with intermediates of the Cox1 and Cox3 modules. Moreover, MICOS recruits a variety of assembly factors even in the absence of ongoing complex IV biogenesis. Our results establish MICOS as an important agent in efficient respiratory chain assembly that directly supports and coordinates complex IV biogenesis within the complex inner membrane architecture.

Mitochondrial DNA mutations drive aerobic glycolysis to enhance checkpoint blockade in melanoma

Polymorphisms in mitochondrial DNA genes coding for subunits in complex I differentially control lifespan and ageing-related pathways in mice.

Project description:Mitochondrial complex I, the largest enzyme complex of the mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation machinery, has been proposed to contribute to variety of age-related pathological alterations as well as longevity. The enzyme complex-consisting proteins are encoded by both nuclear- (nDNA) and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). While some association studies of mtDNA-encoded complex I genes and lifespan in humans have been reported, experimental evidence and functional consequence of such variants are limited to studies using invertebrate models. Here, we present experimental evidence that a homoplasmic mutation in mitochondrially encoded complex I gene, mt-Nd2, modulates lifespan by altering cellular tryptophan levels and consequently ageing-related pathways in mice. A conplastic mouse strain carrying a mutation at m.4738C>A in mt-Nd2 lived significantly shorter than the controls. The same mutation led to higher susceptibility to glucose intolerance induced by high fat diet feeding. These phenotypes were not observed in mice carrying a mutation in another mtDNA-encoded complex I gene, mt-Nd5, suggesting functional relevance of particular mutations in complex I to ageing and age-related diseases.

Subcellular proteomics combined with bioenergetic phenotyping reveals protein biomarkers of respiratory insufficiency in the setting of compromised mitochondrial DNA repair.

Project description:The mitochondrial mutator mouse is a well-established model of premature aging in which a progeroid phenotype is driven by the accumulation of somatic mtDNA mutations. Despite evidence of bioenergetic disruption within the cardiac mitochondria, there is little information about the underlying changes to the mitochondrial proteome. Herein, nLC-MS/MS was used to interrogate the mitochondria-enriched proteome of cardiac and skeletal muscle tissues of mutator mice and wild-type littermates. The mitochondrial proteome from heart tissue was then correlated with previously reported respiratory conductance data generated from the same mitochondrial samples to identify protein biomarkers of respiratory insufficiency. The majority of proteins that were found to be significantly downregulated in mutator mitochondria were subunits of respiratory complexes I and IV, including both nuclear and mitochondrial-encoded proteins. Interestingly, the mitochondrial-encoded complex V subunits, were unchanged or upregulated in mutator mitochondria suggesting a robustness to mtDNA mutation. Finally, the protein most strongly correlated with respiratory conductance in heart mitochondria from wild-type and mutator mice was the phosphatase PPM1K, which has been shown to have roles in branched chain amino acid metabolism and mitochondria permeability transition. These results suggest that mitochondrial mutator mice undergo a specific loss of mitochondrial complexes I and IV that limit their respiratory function independent of an upregulation of complex V. Additionally, the role of PPM1K in responding to mitochondrial stress warrants further exploration.
