In vivo trapping of thioredoxin substrates

ABSTRACT: Thioredoxin (Trx) is a ubiquitous oxidoreductase maintaining protein-bound cysteine residues in the reduced thiol state. Here, we combined a well-established method to trap Trx substrates with the power of bacterial genetics to comprehensively characterize the in vivo Trx redox interactome in the model bacterium Escherichia coli. Using strains engineered to optimize trapping, we report the identification of a total 257 Trx substrates, including 191 that had never been reported to depend on Trx for reduction. The newly identified Trx substrates are involved in a variety of cellular processes, ranging from energy metabolism to amino acid synthesis and transcription. The interaction between Trx and two of its newly identified substrates, a protein required for the import of most carbohydrates, PtsI, and the bacterial actin homolog MreB was studied in detail. We provide direct evidence that PtsI and MreB contain cysteine residues that are susceptible to oxidation and that participate in the formation of an intermolecular disulfide with Trx. By considerably expanding the number of Trx targets, our work highlights the role played by this major oxidoreductase in a variety of cellular processes. Moreover, as the dependence on Trx for reduction is often conserved across species, it also provides insightful information on the interactome of Trx in organisms other than E. coli

Project description:A deeper understanding of malaria parasite development inside the Anopheles mosquito may lead to the identification of processes that can be targeted by transmission-blocking interventions. Paraquat (1,1'-dimethyl-4,4'-bipyridylium dichloride) is a potent superoxide-inducing agent that impacts Plasmodium ookinete development, especially at higher concentrations. Compounds like Paraquat can potentially induce an oxidative imbalance in the mosquito midgut during ookinete maturation, essentially super-stressing the parasite leading to the arrested development of ookinetes, the only stage that can invade through a mosquito midgut cell to establish an oocyst infection in the mosquito. The mosquito midgut has evolved to handle the natural production of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS and RNS, respectively) as a result of feeding on blood. The addition of Paraquat to a bloodmeal is expected to induce a cognate response in the midgut to handle the excess ROS/RNS, and high concentrations of this compound can potentially overwhelm the midgut response leading to mosquito death. While several studies have explored the effect of Paraquat on malaria parasites, a fundamental understanding of the mosquito response to this compound remains unknown. Here, we quantified the mosquito midgut proteomic response to a Paraquat-laced sugar meal to understand the intrinsic midgut response (in the absence of a bloodmeal). We then carried out transcriptomic analysis of the mosquito midgut for several antioxidants of the Trx and GSH pathways to compare concordance or discordance between protein and its transcripts during different oxidative stress conditions. Finally, we determined whether the same Trx and GSH pathways are upregulated following infection with either P. falciparum or P. berghei at 24 hrs post-blood feeding, coinciding with the time point for maximal ookinete traversal of the midgut. We discuss the potential selective action of Paraquat on the parasite and the intrinsic tolerance of the mosquito midgut to Paraquat-mediated oxidative stress.
