Project description:Abstract: The essential mammalian enzyme O-GlcNAc Transferase (OGT) is uniquely responsible for transferring N-acetylglucosamine to over a thousand nuclear and cytoplasmic proteins, yet there is no known consensus sequence and it remains unclear how OGT recognizes its substrates. To address this question, we have developed a protein microarray assay that chemoenzymatically labels de novo sites of glycosylation with biotin, allowing us to simultaneously as-sess OGT activity across >6000 human proteins. We used this assay to examine the contribution of a conserved asparagine ladder within the lumen of OGT’s superhelical tetratri-copeptide repeat (TPR) domain to substrate selection. When these residues were mutated, OGT retained full activity against short peptides, but showed low to no activity against most of the OGT substrates on the microarray. O-GlcNAcylation of protein substrates in cell extracts was also greatly attenuated. We conclude that OGT recognizes a majority of its substrates by binding them to the asparagine ladder in the TPR lumen proximal to the catalytic domain. This series contains microarray data both comparing the new chemoenzymatic method to antibody-based detection as well as comparing arrays treated with wild-type OGT, 5N5A mutant OGT, or controls not treated with enzyme.

Project description:Abstract: O-GlcNAc is an abundant post-translational modification found on nuclear and cytoplasmic proteins in all metazoans. This modification regulates a wide variety of cellular processes, and elevated O-GlcNAc levels have been implicated in cancer progression. A single essential enzyme, O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT), is responsible for all nucleocytoplasmic O-GlcNAcylation. Understanding how this enzyme chooses its substrates is critical for understanding, and potentially manipulating, its functions. Here we use protein microarray technology and proteome-wide glycosylation profiling to show that conserved aspartate residues in the tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) lumen of OGT drive substrate selection. Changing these residues to alanines alters substrate selectivity and unexpectedly increases rates of protein glycosylation. Our findings support a model where sites of glycosylation for many OGT substrates are determined by TPR domain contacts to substrate side chains five to fifteen residues C-terminal to the glycosite. In addition to guiding design of inhibitors that target OGT's TPR domain, this information will inform efforts to engineer substrates to explore biological functions.

Project description:Discriminating pathogenic bacteria from energy-harvesting commensals is key to host immunity. Using mutants defective in the enzymes of O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) cycling, we examined the role of this nutrient-sensing pathway in the Caenorhabidits elegans innate immune response. Using whole genome transcriptional profiling, O-GlcNAc cycling mutants exhibited deregulation of unique stress- and immune-responsive genes as well as genes shared with the p38 MAPK/PMK-1 pathway. Moreover, genetic analysis showed that deletion of O-GlcNAc transferase (ogt-1) yielded animals hypersensitive to the human pathogen S. aureus but not to P. aeruginosa. Genetic interaction studies further revealed that nutrient-responsive OGT-1 acts through the conserved ß-catenin (BAR-1) pathway and in concert with p38 MAPK/PMK-1 to modulate the immune response to S. aureus. The participation of the nutrient sensor O-GlcNAc transferase in an immunity module conserved from C. elegans to humans reveals an unexplored nexus between nutrient availability and a pathogen-specific immune response. In C. elegans, three mutant strains(genotypes used: N2 (wild-type), ogt-1 (ok1474), oga-1 (ok1207), and pmk-1 (km25)) were treated with the human pathogen S. aureus (SA) or P. aeruginosa(PA) and OP50 (E. coli control) with three biological replications.

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:An X-chromosome exome sequencing analysis identified a mutation in O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) (pL254F) in a family with X-linked intellectual disability (XLID). Affected patient lymohoblastoids exhibit decreased steady state OGT levels owing to an unstable protein compared to the unaffected, related male controls. Suprisingly, global O-GlcNAc levels remained remained unaltered. This prompted us to check the both protein and mRNA levels of the other cycling enzyme, O-GlcNAcase (OGA) which was also lowered. This implies that a compensation mechanism exists, however imperfect, owing to the disease state of the individuals. We performed glabal transcriptome analysis to assess any other changes in message between patients and controls. Our study highlights small differences in the global transcriptome of patient lymhoblastoids that have the L254F mutation in O-GlcNAc transferase when compared to familial controls using Illumina sequencing of total RNA

Project description:O-Linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) is a monosaccharide that plays an essential role in cellular signaling throughout the nucleocytoplasmic proteome of eukaryotic cells. Yet, the study of post-translational modifications like O-GlcNAc has been limited by the lack of strategies to induce O-GlcNAcylation of a target protein in cells. Here, we report a generalizable genetic strategy to induce O-GlcNAc to specific target proteins in cells using a nanobody as a proximity-directing agent fused to O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT). Fusion of a nanobody that recognizes GFP (nGFP) or a nanobody that recognizes the four-amino acid sequence EPEA (nEPEA) to OGT(4), a truncated form of OGT, yielded a nanobody-OGT(4) construct that selectively delivered O-GlcNAc to the target protein (e.g., JunB, cJun, Nup62) and reduced alteration of global O-GlcNAc levels in the cell. Chemical proteomics confirmed the selective increase in O-GlcNAc to the target protein by nanobody-OGT(4). Glycoproteomics on the target protein revealed similar glycosite selectivity between nanobody-OGT(4) or global elevation of O-GlcNAc. Finally, we demonstrate the ability to selectively target endogenous ⍺-synuclein for glycosylation in HEK293T cells. Thus, the use of nanobodies to redirect OGT substrate selection is a versatile strategy to induce glycosylation to desired target proteins in cells that will facilitate discovery of O-GlcNAc functions and provide a mechanism to engineer O-GlcNAc signaling. The proximity-directed OGT approach for protein-selective O-GlcNAcylation is readily translated to additional protein targets and nanobodies, and may constitute a generalizable strategy to control post-translational modifications in cells.

Project description:We report that cellular O-GlcNAcylation levels decline along the course of megakaryocyte (MK) differentiation from human-derived hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) and that inhibition of O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT), of which catalyzes O-GlcNAcylation, prolongedly decreases O-GlcNAcylation and induces megakaryopoiesis and thrombopoiesis. To gain the better insight into the potential mechanisms underlying platelet regulation by O-GlcNAcylation ,we compared the genome-wide transcription profiles of megakaryblastic MEG-01 cells with decreased O-GlcNAcylation (OGTi) and its control counterpart using RNA sequencing. Gene ontology and enrichment analysis of differentially expressed genes suggest that platelet formation might be regulated through the perturbation in cell adhesion molecules, i.e. integrin-a4 and b7, downstream of O-GlcNAc/c-Myc axis.
