Project description:Here, we present a systematic and quantitative test of the hypothesis that the composition and activities of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) proteostasis network impact mutational tolerance of secretory pathway client proteins. We focus on influenza hemagluttinin (HA), a viral coat protein that folds in the host’s ER via a complex but well-characterized pathway. By integrating chemical methods to modulate the unfolded protein response with deep mutational scanning to assess mutational tolerance, we discover that upregulation of ER chaperones broadly enhances HA mutational tolerance across numerous sites and secondary/tertiary structure elements, including sites targeted by host antibodies. Remarkably, this host chaperone-enhanced mutational tolerance is observed at the same HA sites where mutational tolerance is most reduced by propagation at a fever-like temperature. Thus, host ER proteostasis mechanisms and temperature modulate HA mutational tolerance in opposite directions. This finding has important implications for influenza evolution, because influenza immune escape is contingent on HA possessing sufficient mutational tolerance to acquire antibody resistance while still maintaining the capacity to fold and function. More broadly, this work provides the first experimental evidence that the composition and activities of the ER proteostasis network critically define the mutational tolerance and, therefore, the evolution of secretory pathway client proteins.

Project description:Buffering of deleterious mutations by molecular chaperones and degradation of aberrant proteins by quality control systems are both major factors that can impact the mutational landscape available to a client protein. The impacts of the proteostasis network on protein evolution are not limited to just endogenous clients, but can also shape the mutational landscapes accessible to rapidly evolving viral proteins. Here, we test the hypothesis that the composition of the host cell’s endoplasmic reticulum (ER) proteostasis network shapes the evolution of RNA viruses by focusing on human immunodeficiency virus-1 envelope (Env), a membrane glycoprotein that folds and matures in the host cell’s secretory pathway. We apply chemical genetic methods to activate the IRE1-XBP1s and/or the ATF6 transcriptional arms of the unfolded protein response in a stress-independent manner. We then quantitatively assess the impact of the resulting altered host cell ER proteostasis environments on the relative enrichment of all Env single amino acid substitutions using deep mutational scanning. We find that upregulation of host ER proteostasis factors globally reduces the mutational tolerance of HIV-1 Env, particularly upon induction of the IRE1-XBP1s transcriptional arm of the UPR. The effects of ATF6 activation are less global, but still significant at particular Env sites. The impact of the XBP1s-induced ER proteostasis environment is disparate for diverse structural elements of Env. Conserved, functionally important regions generally exhibit the largest decreases in mutational tolerance upon XBP1s activation. In contrast, specific regions of Env, including regions targeted by broadly neutralizing antibodies, display greatly enhanced mutational tolerance when XBP1s is activated. Altogether, these data reveal a new set of host factors that specifically shape the mutational space accessible to HIV Env and, more generally, provide compelling evidence that UPR-regulated proteostasis mechanisms play critical roles in membrane protein evolution.

Project description:Imbalances in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) proteostasis are associated with etiologically-diverse degenerative diseases linked to excessive extracellular protein misfolding and aggregation. Reprogramming of the ER proteostasis environment through genetic activation of the Unfolded Protein Response (UPR)-associated transcription factor ATF6 attenuates secretion and extracellular aggregation of amyloidogenic proteins. Here, we employed a screening approach that included complementary arm-specific UPR reporters and medium-throughput transcriptional profiling to identify non-toxic small molecules that phenocopy the ATF6-mediated reprogramming of the ER proteostasis environment. Comprehensive transcriptome analysis was employed to validate the capacity of three prioritized compounds to remodel the ER proteostasis environment, and to assess the prefential activation of ATF6 transcriptional targets relative to targets of the IRE1/XBP1s and PERK arms of the UPR. HEK293T-Rex and HEK293-DAX cells were treated for 6 hr with vehicle (DMSO), 1 µM Tg, 10 mM TMP (in HEK293DAX), or 10 µM 132, 147 or 263 in biological triplicate at 37 ÌC

Project description:The unfolded protein response (UPR) maintains endoplasmic reticulum (ER) proteostasis through the activation of transcription factors such as XBP1s and ATF6. The functional consequences of these transcription factors for ER proteostasis remain poorly defined. Here, we describe methodology that enables orthogonal, small molecule-mediated activation of the UPR-associated transcription factors XBP1s and/or ATF6 in the same cell independent of stress. We employ transcriptomics and quantitative proteomics to evaluate ER proteostasis network remodeling owing to the XBP1s and/or ATF6 transcriptional programs. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the three ER proteostasis environments accessible by activating XBP1s and/or ATF6 differentially influence the folding, trafficking, and degradation of destabilized ER client proteins without globally affecting the endogenous proteome. Our data reveal how the ER proteostasis network is remodeled by the XBP1s and/or ATF6 transcriptional programs at the molecular level and demonstrate the potential for selectively restoring aberrant ER proteostasis of pathologic, destabilized proteins through arm-selective UPR-activation. The unfolded protein response adapts endoplasmic reticulum (ER) proteostasis via stress-responsive transcription factors including XBP1s and ATF6. Here, R. Luke Wiseman and colleagues implement technology for the orthogonal, ligand-dependent activation of XBP1s and/or ATF6 in a single cell. They characterize how XBP1s and/or ATF6 activation impacts ER proteostasis pathway composition and function. Adapted ER environments influence the proteostasis of destabilized protein variants without affecting the endogenous proteome. The work informs the development of proteostasis environment-adapting therapeutics for protein misfolding-related diseases. In order to activate both XBP1s and ATF6 in the same cell, we incorporated DHFR.ATF6 and tet-inducible XBP1s into a HEK293T-REx cell line stably expressing the tet-repressor. The HEK293DYG control cell line expresses tet-inducible eGFP and DHFR.YFP and is used as a control to demonstrate that the addition of doxycycline (dox) and trimethoprim (TMP) do not induce UPR genes. HEK293DYG cells were treated for 12 h with vehicle or 1 μg/mL dox and 10 μM TMP in biological triplicate. Cells were harvested and RNA was extracted using the RNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen). Genomic DNA was removed by on-column digestion using the RNase-free DNase Set (Qiagen). Data from HEK293DYG cells showed no significant overlap in the ligand-treated transcriptomes obtained from HEK293DAX cells.

Data from HEK293DYG cells showed no significant overlap in the ligand-treated transcriptomes obtained from the control HEK293DYG cells.

Project description:Changes in metabolism can alter the cellular milieu; can this also change intracellular proteostasis? Since proteostasis can modulate mutational buffering, if change in metabolism has the ability to change proteostasis, arguably, it should also alter mutational buffering. Building on this, we find that altered cellular metabolic states in E. coli buffer distinct mutations. Buffered-mutants had folding problems in vivo and were differently chaperoned in different metabolic states. Notably, this assistance was dependent upon the metabolites and not on the increase in canonical chaperone machineries. Additionally, we were able to reconstitute the folding assistance afforded by metabolites in vitro and propose that changes in metabolite concentrations have the potential to alter proteostasis. Collectively, we unravel that the metabolite pools are bona fide members of proteostasis and aid in mutational buffering. Given the plasticity in cellular metabolism, we posit that metabolic alterations may play an important role in the positive or negative regulation of proteostasis.

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.
