N-terminal amino acid identification using targeted mass spectrometry

ABSTRACT: Using engineered initiator tRNA for precise control of protein translation within cells has great promise within future orthogonal translation systems to decouple housekeeping protein metabolism from that of engineered genetic systems. Previously, E. coli strain C321.ΔA.exp lacking all UAG stop codons was created, freeing this ‘amber’ stop codon for other purposes. An engineered ‘amber initiator’ that activates translation at UAG codons is available, but little is known about amino acid it assigns to the amber start codon. Here, we combine for the first time the amber initiator tRNA in C321.ΔA.exp and measure its cellular effects. Using, targeted proteomics, we found that the amber initiator tRNA initiates proteins exclusively with methionine.

Chimeric design of Pyrrolysyl-tRNA synthetase/tRNA pairs and canonical synthetase/tRNA pairs for genetic code expansion

Project description:An orthogonal aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase/tRNA pair is a key prerequisite for site-specific incorporation of unnatural amino acids. Due to its high codon suppression efficiency and full orthogonality, the pyrrolysyl-tRNA synthetase/pyrrolysyl-tRNA pair is currently the ideal system for genetic code expansion in both eukaryotes and prokaryotes. There is a pressing need to discover or engineer other fully orthogonal translation systems that allow unnatural amino acids with distinct scaffolds and functionalities to be incorporated into a wide range of living organisms efficiently. Here, through rational chimera design by transplanting the key orthogonal components from the pyrrolysine system, we create multiple chimeric tRNA synthetase/chimeric tRNA pairs, including chimera histidine, phenylalanine, and alanine systems. We further show that these engineered chimeric systems are orthogonal and highly efficient with comparable flexibility to the pyrrolysine system. In addition, the chimera phenylalanine system can incorporate a group of phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan analogues efficiently in both E. coli and mammalian cells. These aromatic amino acids analogous exhibit unique properties and characteristics, including fluorescence, post-translation modification. To our knowledge, most of these molecules have never been shown to be incorporated with fully orthogonal pairs. Therefore, these chimera pairs offer the potential for incorporation of de novo unnatural amino acids into target proteins for a variety of applications.

Encoding the human serine phosphoproteome in an engineered bacterial system

Project description:We synthesize a synthetic representation of the human serine phosphoproteome, expressed heterologously as >=31 amino acid phosphopeptides in an engineered strain of E. coli. We confirm that tens of thousands of these phosphopeptides can be successfully expressed and retain important functional characteristics of serine phosphorylation as it occurs in native eukaryotic systems.

Corynebacterium glutamicum as a powerful host for the production of 5-aminovalerate from glucose fermentation

Project description:5-aminovalerate (5AVA), L-lysine derived compound, represents a potential building block for the production of the bio-plastic nylon-5. Escherichia coli has been engineered for the production of 5AVA, but Corynebacterium glutamicum has never been engineered for the production of 5AVA, but, a lot of work was done in the last decades to optimize the production of the precursor L-lysine and more recently cadaverine. 5AVA added to the growth medium hardly affected growth rate of C. glutamicum, since, a half-inhibitory concentration of 1.1 M 5AVA was determined. While in E. coli, 5AVA production was engineered by using the DavBA pathway from Pseudomonas putida, here a pathway based on the route described in P. aeruginosa was established. C. glutamicum wild type was converted into a 5AVA producing strain by heterologous expression of L-lysine decarboxylase (LdcC), putrescine transaminase (PatA) and γ-aminobutyraldehyde dehydrogenase (PatD) genes from E. coli. 5AVA production was improved by using a strain previously engineered for high L-lysine production, by de-repressing phosphoenolpyruvate phosphotransferase system (PTS) and glycolysis and by avoiding formation of the by-product L-lactate. 5AVA accumulation by this strain was increased to 44.9 mM, representing a yield of 202 mmol mol-1 glucose, which is about three times higher than the highest yield achieved in E. coli for the production of 5AVA from glucose fermentation.

Transcriptome reorganization of gene-rewired Escherichia coli cells in response to histidine depletion

Project description:An assortment of genetically engineered Escherichia coli strains of the rewired gene regulation were used to study whether the cells could adapt to the environmental changes without the evolved gene regulatory machinaries. These E. coli strains had a synthetic gene circuit comprising a rewried gene that natively located within the His opeon. The cells growing under histidine supplied or depleted conditions were subjected to the macrioarray analysis. Multilevel analyses were performed to evaluate the global reorganization of gene expression in response to histidine depletion. A common pattern in transcriptome was observed in the adpative cells, indicating a survival strategy of "stochastic adaptation with regular transcriptome reorganization". The genetically engineered strains of rewired genes and the control strain of the native gene regulation were grown in the presence and absence of histidine, and the cells within the exponetially growing phase were collected for the microarray analysis. Temproal changes in response to histidine depletion were also investigated. Every 3 biological replications for each condition were performed. Total 90 array assays were reported here.

Identification of global alteration of translational regulation in glioma in vivo

Project description:Post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression contributes to the protein output of a cell, however, methods for measuring translational regulation in complex in vivo systems are lacking. Here, we describe a sensitive method for measuring translational regulation in defined cell populations from heterogeneous tissue in vivo. We adapted the translating ribosome affinity purification (TRAP) methodology to measure the relative occupancy of individual mRNA transcripts in translating ribosomes in the Olig2-positive tumor cell population in a genetically engineered mouse model (GEM) of glioma. Global measurement of paired ribosome-bound and total cellular mRNA populations from tumor cells in vivo identified a broad distribution of relative ribosome occupancies amongst mRNA species that was highly reproducible across biological samples. Comparison of the translation state of glioma cells to non-transformed oligodendrocyte progenitor cells in normal brain identified global alteration of translation in tumor, and specifically of genes involved in cell division and synthetic metabolism. Furthermore, investigation of alteration in steady state translational efficiencies upon loss of PTEN, one of the most frequently mutated and deleted tumor suppressors in glioma, identified differential translation of proteins involved in cellular respiration, canonically regulated by PI3K/Akt signaling, and cellular glycosylation profiles, deregulation of which is known to be associated with tumor progression. Application of the translation efficiency profiling method described here to other biological contexts and conditions would extend our knowledge of the scope and impact of this important mode of gene regulation in complex in vivo systems. Total RNA and ribosome-bound RNA from Olig2+ cells in normal mouse brain and a mouse model of glioma was collected, microarray and compared.
