Project description:We generated four strains of Escherichia coli K12 MG1655 with distinct proton motive force generation potential and performed the adaptive laboratory evolution of these strains to study how the system adapts to the loss of alternate electron transfer pathways of the Electron Transport System. RNA-Seq was performed to examine the underlying transcriptional rewiring.

Project description:The DosR regulon in Mycobacterium tuberculosis is involved in respiration-limiting conditions and its induction is controlled by two histidine kinases, DosS and DosT. Recent experimental evidence indicates DosS senses either molecular oxygen or a redox change. This report demonstrates that DosS responds to a reduced electron transport system (ETS), although this does not rule out a role for oxygen in silencing signaling. Under aerobic conditions induction of the DosR regulon by DosS but not DosT was observed after the addition of ascorbate, a powerful cytochrome c reductant, demonstrating DosS responds to a redox signal even in the presence of high oxygen tension. During hypoxic conditions regulon induction was attenuated by treatment with compounds that occluded electron flow into the menaquinone pool or decreased the size of the menaquinone pool itself. Increased regulon expression during hypoxia was observed when exogenous menaquinone was added, demonstrating the menaquinone pool is a limiting factor in regulon induction. Taken together these data indicate that a reduced menaquinone pool directly or indirectly triggers induction of the DosR regulon via DosS. Biochemical analysis of menaquinones upon entry into hypoxic/anaerobic conditions demonstrated the disappearance of the unsaturated species and low-level maintenance of the mono-saturated menaquinone. Relative to the unsaturated form, an analog of the saturated form is better able to induce signaling via DosS, rescue inhibition of menaquinone synthesis, and is less toxic. The menaquinone pool is central to the ETS and therefore provides a mechanistic link between the respiratory state of the bacilli and DosS signaling. Aerobically growing logarithmic phase DosS and DosT mutant strains were analyzed after treatment with the cytochrome c reductant ascorbate to examine the effect on DosR signaling caused by reducing the electron transport system. Experiments were repeated in triplicate (dosT mutant) or duplicate (dosS mutant).

Project description:Muscle tissue was longitudinally characterized histologically for electron transport function by staining 1mm of quadriceps muscle at 70 micron intervals for the activities of two complexes in the mitochondrial electron transport chain, Cytochrome C Oxidase and Succinate Dehydrogenase. Unstained serial cryosections were prepared for Laser Capture Microdissection. Target cells from the serial sections were isolated and pooled for RNA extraction, amplification and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We selected homogeneous populations of muscle fibers for expression profiling based upon the presence/absence of electron transport dysfunction caused by the somatic accumulation of mitochondrial DNA deletion mutations.

We selected homogeneous populations of muscle fibers for expression profiling based upon the presence/absence of electron transport dysfunction caused by the somatic accumulation of mitochondrial DNA deletion mutations. The design of this experiment is limited by the source tissue which is individually identified cells harboring intracellular clonal expansions of mitochondrial DNA deletion mutations. These unique and rare cells were identified in rat Vastus lateralis tissue in an aged 36-month old F344xBN F1 hybrid rat by exhaustive serial sectioning and subsequent histological characterization. Unstained serial sections where isolated by LCM and the purified RNA was amplified by 2 rounds of RNA based transcription prior to fragmentation and hybridization on rat genome affymetrix chips. Two populations of cells were analyzed, Electron transport deficient and normal control cells from the same animal.

Project description:Although tumor growth requires the mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC), the relative contribution of Complex I (CI) and II (CII), the gatekeepers for initiating electron flow, remains unclear. Here, we report that loss of CII, but not CI, reduces melanoma tumor growth by increasing antigen presentation and T cell-mediated killing. This is driven by succinate-mediated transcriptional and epigenetic activation of major histocompatibility complex I-antigen processing and presentation (MHC-APP) genes that is independent of interferon signaling. Furthermore, knock-out of MCJ, to promote electron entry preferentially via CI, provides proof-of-concept of ETC rewiring to achieve anti-tumor responses without side effects associated with an overall reduction in mitochondrial respiration in non-cancer cells. Our results hold therapeutic potential for tumors that have reduced MHC-APP expression, a common mechanism of cancer immunoevasion.

Project description:Loss of antigen presentation by MHCI is a common mechanism of tumor immune evasion. Mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) capacity influences MHCI expression, but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we demonstrate that the relative flow of electrons through complex I or II of the mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) regulates MHCI expression and antigen presentation in cancer cells. Specifically, reducing electron flow from complex II increases mitochondrial succinate which activates transcription of MHCI and antigen processing and presentation (APP) genes. These phenotypes are independent of the interferon (IFN) signaling pathway and driven by succinate-mediated enzymatic inhibition of lysine-specific demethylases, KDM5A/B and destabilization of polycomb repressor complex 2 (PRC2). Finally, knockout of the mitochondrial Complex I inhibitor protein, MCJ, preferentially reduces electron flow through Complex II and increases succinate which drives an enhanced antigen-dependent CD8+ T cell response to mouse melanoma tumors in vivo. These findings suggest that the mitochondrial ETC can be manipulated therapeutically to enhance antitumor immune responses independently of IFNγ.
