Two unequally redundant 'helper' immune receptor families mediate Arabidopsis intracellular 'sensor' immune receptor functions

Project description:Investigate the function of RNLs in transcriptional reprogramming during Pf0-1-induced PTI and ETI, using time-resolved transcriptomics. To do so we subjected Col-0, adr1 triple, nrg1.1 nrg1.2 and helperless mutants to infections with Pf0-EV (RNL-(in)dependent PTI), Pf0-AvrRps4 (fully RNL-dependent ETI + PTI), Pf0-AvrRpt2 (partial RNL-dependent ETI + PTI) or Pf0-AvrRpm1 (RNL-independent ETI + PTI).

ZAKα Recognizes Stalled Ribosomes through Partially Redundant Sensor Domains

Project description:Impairment of ribosome function activates the MAPKKK ZAK, leading to activation of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases p38 and JNK and inflammatory signaling. The mechanistic basis for activation of this ribotoxic stress response (RSR) re-mains completely obscure. We show that the long isoform of ZAK (ZAKα) directly associates with ribosomes by inserting its flexible C terminus into the ribosomal intersubunit space. Here, ZAKα binds helix14 of 18S ribosomal RNA (rRNA). An adjacent domainin ZAKa also probes the ribosome, and together, these sensor domains are critically required for RSR activation after inhibition of both the E-site, the peptidyl transferase center (PTC), and ribotoxinaction. Finally, we show that ablation of the RSR response leads to organismal phenotypes and decreased lifespan in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans). Our findings yield mechanistic insight into how cells detect ribotoxic stress and provide experimental in vivo evidence for its physiological importance.

The immune receptor TLR2 directly binds and signals immune activation to oligomeric chitin

Project description:Chitin is the second most abundant polysaccharide in nature and a biomolecule intimately linked to fungal infection and allergic asthma, conditions that affect millions of patients worldwide. Chitin is known to stimulate multiple mammalian immune cells, but the precise molecular sensing mechanism has not been elucidated, hampering strategies to specifically target chitin-mediated pathologies. Using defined chitin oligomers we here identify six chitin subunits as the smallest immunologically active chitin motif and the innate immune receptor TLR2 as the molecular chitin sensor on human and murine immune cells, in vitro and in vivo. Chitin oligomers directly bound TLR2 with nanomolar affinity and elicited overlapping yet distinct signaling outcomes compared to canonical TLR2 ligands. Conversely, chitin oligomers composed of five chitin subunits acted as antagonists of chitin-TLR2 immune activation, hinting to an anti-inflammatory loop already known from plants, to also operate in humans. Of note, small chitin oligomers and biological-based blocking of the TLR2-chitin interaction effectively prevented chitin-mediated inflammation not only in vitro but also in vivo. Collectively, our study elucidates the molecular basis of how chitin is sensed by mammalian immune cells, which has broad impact for chitin-associated inflammatory pathologies. From a translational perspective, our findings further suggests that differently sized chitin oligomers could be developed into novel vaccine adjuvants or immuno-modulatory antagonists for the prevention or treatment of chitin-driven diseases in humans.

Conserved nutrient sensor O-GlcNAc transferase is integral to the C. elegans pathogen-specific immune response

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.

The cytosolic DNA sensor cGAS recognizes Neutrophil Extracellular Traps

Project description:Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs) are structures consisting of chromatin and antimicrobial molecules that are released by neutrophils during a form of regulated cell death called NETosis. NETs trap invading pathogens, promote coagulation and activate myeloid cells to produce Type I interferons (type I IFN), proinflammatory cytokines that regulate the immune system. The mechanism of NET recognition by myeloid cells is not yet clearly identified. Here we show that macrophages and other myeloid cells phagocytose NETs. Once in phagosomes, NETs translocate to the cytosol, where they activate the DNA sensor cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS) and induce type I IFN expression. cGAS recognizes the DNA backbone of NETs. Interestingly, the NET associated serine protease Neutrophil Elastase (NE) mediates the activation of the pathway. We confirmed that NETs activate cGAS in vivo. Thus, our findings identify cGAS as a major sensor of NETs, mediating the immune activation during infection and in auto-immune diseases.
