Proteotype profiling unmasks a viral signaling network essential for poxvirus assembly and transcriptional competence

ABSTRACT: Abstract To orchestrate context-dependent signaling programs poxviruses encode two dual-specificity enzymes, the F10 kinase and the H1 phosphatase. These signaling mediators are essential for poxvirus production, yet their substrate profiles and systems level functions remain enigmatic. Using a phosphoproteomic screen of cells infected with wildtype, F10, and H1 mutant viruses we systematically defined the viral signaling network controlled by these enzymes. Quantitative cross-comparison revealed 33 F10 and/or H1 phosphosites within 17 viral proteins. Using this proteotype dataset to inform genotype-phenotype relationships we found that H1-deficient virions harbor a hidden hyper-cleavage phenotype driven by reversible phosphorylation of the virus protease I7 (S134). Quantitative phosphoproteomic profiling further revealed that the phosphorylation-dependent activity of the viral early transcription factor, A7 (Y367), underlies the transcription-deficient phenotype of H1 mutant virions. Together these results highlight the utility of combining quantitative proteotype screens with mutant viruses to uncover novel proteotype-phenotype-genotype relationships that are masked by classical genetic studies.

Project description:Listeria monocytogenes is an opportunistic foodborne pathogen responsible for listeriosis, a potentially fatal foodborne disease. Many different Listeria strains and serotypes exist, buthowever a proteogenomic resource that which would allow to bridges the gap in ourthe molecular understanding of the relationships between the Listeria genotypes and phenotypes via proteotypes is still missing. Here we devised a next-generation proteogenomics strategy that enables the community now to rapidly proteotype Listeria strains and relate this information back to the genotype. Based on sequencing and de novo assembly of the two most commonly used Listeria model strains, EGD-e and ScottA, we established two comprehensive Listeria proteogenomic databases. A genome comparison established core- and strain-specific genes with potentially responsible relevance for virulence differences. Next, we established a DIA/SWATH-based proteotyping strategy, including a new and robust sample preparation workflow, that enablesing the reproducible, sensitive, and relatively quantitative measurement of Listeria proteotypes. This re-usable and publically available DIA/SWATH library and new public resource covers 70% of the potentially expressed open reading frames (ORFs) of Listeria and represents the most extensive spectral library for Listeria proteotype analysis to date. We used these two new resources to investigate the Listeria proteotype in three states mimicking the upper gastrointestinal passage. Exposure of Listeria to bile salts at 37 oC, which simulatesmimicking conditions encountered in the duodenum, showed significant proteotype perturbations including an increase of FlaA, the structural protein of flagella. Given that Listeria is known to lose its flagella above 30 oC, this was an unexpected finding. The formation of flagella, which might have implications onwithin the infectivity cycle, was validated by parallel reaction monitoring and, light and scanning electron microscopiesy. Q-PCR data of flaA transcripts levels were not impacted showed no significantly differentces with and without exposure to conditions mimicking the duodenum, suggesting a regulation at the post-transcriptional level. Together, these analyseswe provide a comprehensive proteogenomic resource and toolbox for the Listeria community enabling the analysis of Listeria genotype-proteotype-phenotype relationships.

Project description:Genotypic differences greatly influence susceptibility and resistance to disease. Understanding genotype-phenotype relationships requires that phenotypes be viewed as manifestations of network properties, rather than simply as the result of individual genomic variations. Genome sequencing efforts have identified numerous germline mutations associated with cancer predisposition and large numbers of somatic genomic alterations. However, it remains challenging to distinguish between background, or “passenger” and causal, or “driver” cancer mutations in these datasets. Human viruses intrinsically depend on their host cell during the course of infection and can elicit pathological phenotypes similar to those arising from mutations. To test the hypothesis that genomic variations and tumour viruses may cause cancer via related mechanisms, we systematically examined host interactome and transcriptome network perturbations caused by DNA tumour virus proteins. The resulting integrated viral perturbation data reflects rewiring of the host cell networks, and highlights pathways that go awry in cancer, such as Notch signalling and apoptosis. We show that systematic analyses of host targets of viral proteins can identify cancer genes with a success rate on par with their identification through functional genomics and large-scale cataloguing of tumour mutations. These complementary approaches together result in increased specificity for cancer gene identification. Combining systems-level studies of pathogen-encoded gene products with genomic approaches will facilitate prioritization of cancer-causing driver genes so as to advance understanding of the genetic basis of human cancer. We profiled the transcriptome of human cells expressing tumor virus proteins, in order to trace pathways through which viral proteins could alter cellular states. To examine transcriptome network perturbations directly in human cells, we generated expression constructs fusing each viral ORF (open reading frame) to a tandem epitope tag and introduced each construct into IMR-90 normal human diploid fibroblasts. Total RNA was isolated from IMR-90 cells expressing viORFs and gene expression was assayed on Human Gene 1.0 ST arrays.
