Project description:The function of mammalian Bcnt protein is poorly understood yet, though Bcnt homologs (yeast Swc5 and Dorsophila Yeti) play crucial roles in chromatin remodeling organization. In this study, we found that mammalian Bcnt protein shows unusual mobility on SDS-PAGE and is acetylated in vitro by CREB-binding protein. Therefore, we analyzed Bcnt protein by LC-MSMS to characterize the protein structure containing post-translational modifications (phosphorylation and acetylation) which may be the cause of this unusual mobility.

Project description:Abstract still has to be written. The obtained peptide mixtures were introduced into an LC-MS/MS system, the Ultimate 3000 (Dionex, Amsterdam, The Netherlands) in-line connected to an LTQ Orbitrap XL mass spectrometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Bremen, Germany). Samples were first loaded on a trapping column (made in-house, 100 um internal diameter (I.D.) x 20 mm, 5 um beads C18 Reprosil-HD, Dr. Maisch). After back-flushing from the trapping column, the sample was loaded on a reverse-phase column (made in-house, 75 um I.D. x 150 mm, 5 um beads C18 Reprosil-HD, Dr. Maisch). Peptides were loaded with solvent A (0.1% trifluoroacetic acid, 2% acetonitrile), and were separated with a linear gradient from 2% solvent A' (0.05% formic acid) to 55% solvent B' (0.05% formic acid and 80% acetonitrile) at a flow rate of 300 nL/min followed by a wash reaching 100% solvent B'. The mass spectrometer was operated in data-dependent mode, automatically switching between MS and MS/MS acquisition for the six most abundant peaks in a given MS spectrum. Full scan MS spectra were acquired in the Orbitrap at a target value of 1E6 with a resolution of 60,000. The six most intense ions were then isolated for fragmentation in the linear ion trap, with a dynamic exclusion of 60 s. Peptides were fragmented after filling the ion trap at a target value of 1E4 ion counts. From the MS/MS data in each LC run, Mascot Generic Files were created using the Mascot Distiller software (version 2.3.01, Matrix Science). While generating these peak lists, grouping of spectra was allowed with a maximum intermediate retention time of 30 s and a maximum intermediate scan count of 5 was used where possible. Grouping was done with 0.005 Da precursor tolerance. A peak list was only generated when the MS/MS spectrum contained more than 10 peaks. There was no de-isotoping and the relative signal to noise limit was set at 2. These peak lists were then searched with the Mascot search engine (Matrix Science) using the Mascot Daemon interface (version 2.3, Matrix Science). Spectra were searched against the human (H. sapiens) Swiss-Prot database. 13C2D3-acetylation of lysine side-chains, carbamidomethylation of cysteine and methionine oxidation to methionine-sulfoxide were set as fixed modifications for the N-terminal COFRADIC analyses. Variable modifications were 13C2D3-acetylation and acetylation of protein N-termini. Pyroglutamate formation of N-terminal glutamine was additionally set as a variable modification. Mass tolerance on precursor ions was set to 10 ppm (with Mascot's C13 option set to 1) and on fragment ions to 0.5 Da. Endoproteinase semi-Arg-C/P (Arg-C specificity with arginine-proline cleavage allowed) was set as enzyme allowing no missed cleavages. The peptide charge was set to 1+, 2+, 3+ and instrument setting was put to ESI-TRAP. Only peptides that were ranked one and scored above the threshold score, set at 99% confidence, were withheld. Quantification of the degree of Nt-Acetylation was performed as described previously (1). All data management was done in ms_lims (2).

Project description:N-terminal proteoforms stem from the same gene but differ at their N-terminus, and most of these are found to be truncated, though some are N-terminally extended caused by ribosomes starting translation from codons in the annotated 5’UTR, and/or carry modified N-termini different from those of the canonical protein. Biological functions of N-terminal proteoforms are emerging, however, it remains unknown to what extend N-terminal proteoforms further expand the functional complexity. To address this in a more global manner, we mapped the interactomes of several pairs of N-terminal proteoforms and their canonical counterparts. For this, we first generated an in-depth catalogue of N-terminal proteoforms in the cytosol of HEK293T cells. As the N-terminal region is the part that differs between the proteoforms, we performed N-terminal enrichment via COFRADIC on the cytosol of HEK293T cells. We combined three digestion enzymes to increase the depth of analysis. Data was searched twise: once with a regular UniProt database and a second time with a custom database (combining the sequences of UniProt proteins, UniProt isoforms and publicly available Ribo-seq data). Data was filtered and this resulted in a catalogue of 3,306 N-termini from which 20 pairs of canonical protein and N-terminal proteoform(s) were selected for interactome analysis. Our analysis of these pairs revealed that the overlap of the interactomes for both proteoforms is in general high, showing their functional relation. However, for all pairs tested we do report differences as well. We show that N-terminal proteoforms can be engaged in new/different interactions and as well can lose several interactions compared to the canonical protein.

Project description:Ribosome profiling revealed translation outside of canonical coding sequences (CDSs) including translation of short upstream open-reading frames (ORFs), long non-coding RNAs, ORFs in UTRs or ORFs in alternative reading frames. Ribo-seq but also bioinformatics-based prediction and RNA-sequencing reported translation of thousands of ORFs derived from non-translated regions (NTRs). Although such ORFs gained increased attention over the years, their actual coding potential remains debated as protein products of only a fraction of them were identified by mass spectrometry. Here, we introduced a new workflow to discover translation products of NTRs at a large-scale. We combined reducing sample complexity (by enriching N-terminal peptides of cytosolic proteins as such peptides are ideal proxies for translation) with and extend search space (combining the sequences of UniProt proteins, UniProt isoforms and publicly available Ribo-seq data) reasoning that this combination increased chances of identifying proteins from NTRs. Further, we introduced rigorous data analysis and results curation workflows to cope with the increased complexity of the search space and to mine identified peptides. This stringent filtering approach was found essential to retain confident translational evidence at the peptide level for NTRs. We show that theoretically our strategy facilitates the detection of translation events of transcripts from NTRs, but experimentally less than 1% of all identified peptides might originate from such translation events.

Project description:Excision of the N-terminal initiator methionine (iMet) from nascent peptide chains is an essential and omnipresent protein modification carried out by Methionine aminopetidases (MetAPs) and accounting for a major source of N-terminal proteoform diversity. While MetAP2 is known to be implicated in processes such as angiogenesis and proliferation in mammals, the physiological role of MetAP1 is much less clear. In this report we studied the omics-wide effects of MetAP1 deletion and MetAP inhibition in general. While the levels of iMet retention are inversely correlated with cellular proliferation rates, deletion of MetAP1 was in part rescued by the increased MetAP2 expression and activity profiles observed.

Project description:Advanced colorectal cancer (CRC) is an unresolved clinical problem. Epigenetic drugs belonging to the group of histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) may combat CRC in rationally designed treatment schedules. Unfortunately, there is sparse evidence on molecular mechanisms and markers that determine cellular sensitivity to HDACi. Irinotecan is widely used to treat CRC and causes replication stress (RS) and DNA damage as topoisomerase-I inhibitor. We applied irinotecan and the class I HDACi entinostat (MS-275) to isogenic p53-positive and -negative CRC cells. Combinations of irinotecan and MS-275 evoke mitochondrial damage, caspase-mediated apoptosis, and RS-associated DNA damage synergistically and p53-dependently. Targeted mass spectrometry and immunoblot show that irinotecan induces phosphorylation, acetylation, and accumulation of p53 and its target genes. Addition of MS-275 augments the irinotecan-induced acetylation of C-terminal lysine residues of p53 but decreases its phosphorylation and p53 target gene induction. Furthermore, MS-275 increases the amount of acetylated p53 at mitochondria and dysregulates the expression of pro- and anti-apoptotic BCL2 proteins in irinotecan-treated cells. Regarding DNA repair, we see that MS-275 represses the homologous recombination (HR) filament protein RAD51, which limits DNA damage and pro-apoptotic effects of irinotecan. These data suggest that key class I HDAC-dependent functions of p53 in cells with RS are linked to mitochondrial damage and a breakdown of HR. Most importantly, combinations of irinotecan plus MS-275 also kill short-term primary CRC cell cultures and organoids from CRC patients but spare organoids of adjacent matched normal tissue. Thus, irinotecan/HDACi treatment is a promising new approach for the therapy of p53-proficient tumors with clinically tractable inhibitors.

Project description:Previously we have shown that extravillous cytotrophoblast (EVT) outgrowth and migration on a collagen gel explant model were restricted by exposure to decidual natural killer cells (dNK). This study investigates the molecular causes behind this phenomenon. Genome wide DNA methylation of exposed and unexposed EVT was assessed using the Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip array (450K array). The array identified 444 differentially methylated CpG loci in dNK-treated EVT compared to medium control (P<0.05). The represented genes from these loci had critical biological roles in cellular development, cellular organization and maintenance by Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA). Furthermore, 23 mobility-related genes were identified by IPA from dNK-treated EVT. Among these genes, CLDN4 (encoding claudin-4) and FUT4 (encoding fucosyltranferase IV) were chosen for follow-up studies because of the biological relevance found in the research on tumor cells. The results showed that the mRNA and protein expressions of both CLDN4 and FUT4 in dNK-treated EVT were significantly reduced, and were inversely correlated with DNA methylation. Knocking down CLDN4 and FUT4 by siRNA reduced trophoblast invasion, possibly through the altered MMP-2 and/or MMP-9 expression and activity. Taken together, dNK alter EVT mobility at least partially in association with an alteration of DNA methylation profile. Hypermethylation of CLDN4 and FUT4 reduce protein expressions. CLDN4 and FUT4 are representative genes that participate in modulating trophoblast mobility. This studied analyzed 17 samples of placental villous explant cultre exposed to different growth conditions. 6 Control samples (biological replicates) were cultured and unexposed to any other cells. 5 samples (biological replicates and from the same placentas as the controls) were cultured and exposed to conditions containing decidua natural killer cells trapped inside hollow fibres (thus only the factors secreted by the cells could interact with the explant culture and not the cells themselves. 6 samples (biological replicates and from the same placentas as the controls) were cultured and exposed to media containing IL-15. The DNA from the villous explants was isolated, bisulfite converted and run on the array.

Project description:Cigarette smoke (CS) has been reported to affect the adhesion of monocytes to endothelial cells, a critical step in atherogenesis. Using an in vitro adhesion assay together with innovative computational systems biology approaches to analyze omics data, our study aimed at investigating CS-induced mechanisms by which monocyte-endothelial cell adhesion is promoted. Disease-relevant primary human coronary artery endothelial cells (HCAECs) were treated for 4 hours with (1) conditioned media of human monocytic Mono Mac-6 (MM6) cells preincubated with low or high concentrations of aqueous CS extract (sbPBS) from reference cigarette 3R4F for 2 hours (indirect treatment, I), (2) unconditioned media similarly prepared, however without MM6 cells (direct treatment, D), or (3) freshly generated sbPBS (fresh direct treatment, FD). sbPBS promoted MM6 cells-HCAECs adhesion following I and FD, but not D. In I, the effect was mediated at a low concentration through activation of vascular inflammation processes promoted in HCAECs by a paracrine effect of the soluble mediators secreted by sbPBS-treated MM6 cells. Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha major inducer, was actually shed by unstable CS compound-activated TNFalpha-converting enzyme. In FD, the effect was triggered at a high concentration that also induced some toxicity. This effect was mediated through an yet unknown mechanism associated with a stress damage response promoted in HCAECs by unstable CS compounds present in freshly generated sbPBS, which had decayed in D unconditioned media. In conclusion, aqueous CS extract directly and indirectly promotes monocytic cell-endothelial cell adhesion in vitro via distinct concentration-dependent mechanisms. Samples from E-MTAB-3644 dataset correspond to 3R4F sbPBS15 and PBS15 (vehicle control: 15% v/v). In the E-MTAB-3923 dataset, samples correspond to THS2.2 abPBS15, THS2.2 abPBS75 and PBS75 (75% v/v). All THS2.2 abPBS15 from E-MTAB-3923 must be compared with their respective control, PBS15 from E-MTAB-3644; while THS2.2 abPBS75 from E-MTAB-3923 must be compared with their respective control, PBS75 from E-MTAB-3923.

Project description:Alterations of endothelial adhesive properties by cigarette smoke (CS) can progressively favor the development of atherosclerosis which may cause cardiovascular disorders. Modified risk tobacco products (MRTPs) are tobacco products scientifically validated to reduce smoking-related health risks. A systems biology/toxicology approach combined with a functional in vitro adhesion assay was used to assess the impact of a candidate heat not burn technology-based MRTP, THS2.2, on the adhesion of monocytic cells to human coronary arterial endothelial cells (HCAECs) compared with a reference cigarette (3R4F). HCAECs were treated for 4h with conditioned media of human monocytic Mono Mac 6 (MM6) cells preincubated with low or high concentrations of aqueous extracts from THS2.2 aerosol or 3R4F CS for 2h (indirect treatment), unconditioned media (direct treatment), or fresh aqueous CS extract (fresh direct treatment). Functional and molecular investigations revealed that aqueous 3R4F CS extract promoted the adhesion of MM6 cells to HCAECs via distinct direct and indirect concentration-dependent mechanisms. Using the same approach, we identified significantly reduced effects of aqueous THS2.2 aerosol extract on MM6 cell-HCAEC adhesion, and reduced molecular changes in endothelial and monocytic cells. Ten- and 20-fold increased concentrations of aqueous THS2.2 aerosol extract were necessary to elicit similar effects to those measured with 3R4F in both fresh direct and indirect exposure modalities, respectively. Our systems toxicology study demonstrated reduced effects of an aqueous aerosol extract from the candidate MRTP, THS2.2, using the adhesion of monocytic cells to human coronary endothelial cells as a surrogate pathophysiologically relevant event in atherogenesis.
