Time- and Polarity-dependent Proteomic Changes associated with Homeostatic Scaling at Central Synapses

ABSTRACT: In homeostatic scaling, the cellular mechanisms that detect the offset from the set-point, the duration of the offset and implement a cellular response are not well-understood. To understand the time-dependent dynamics,we manipulated activity for 2 hrs to induce the process of up or down-scaling and metabolically labelled nascent proteins using BONCAT. We analyzed the newly synthesized proteins that exhibited significant increases or decreases in expression in response to activity manipulations and identified 168 proteins. Then, to obtain a temporal trajectory of the cellular response, we compared the proteins synthesized within 2 and 24 hrs of an activity manipulation. Surprisingly, there was little overlap in the significantly regulated newly synthesized proteins identified in the early- and late-response datasets. There was, however, overlap in the functional categories that are modulated early and late, indicating that within protein function groups, different proteomic choices can be made to effect early and late homeostatic responses.

In homeostatic scaling at central synapses, the depth and breadth of cellular mechanisms that detect the offset from the set-point, detect the duration of the offset and implement a cellular response are not well understood. To understand the time-dependent scaling dynamics we treated cultured rat hippocampal cells with either TTX or bicucculline for 2 hr to induce the process of up- or down-scaling, respectively. During the activity manipulation we metabolically labeled newly synthesized protei ...[more]

Project description:Characterization of bacterial behavior in the microgravity environment of spaceflight is of importance towards risk assessment and prevention of infectious disease during long-term missions. Further, this research field unveils new insights into connections between low fluid-shear regions encountered by pathogens during their natural infection process in vivo, and bacterial virulence. This study is the first to characterize the global transcriptomic and proteomic response of an opportunistic pathogen that is actually found in the space habitat, Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Overall, P. aeruginosa responded to spaceflight conditions through differential regulation of 167 genes and 28 proteins, with Hfq identified as a global transcriptional regulator in the response to this environment. Since Hfq was also induced in spaceflight-grown Salmonella typhimurium, Hfq represents the first spaceflight-induced regulator across the bacterial species border. The major P. aeruginosa virulence-related genes induced in spaceflight conditions were the lecA and lecB lectins and the rhamnosyltransferase (rhlA), involved in the production of rhamnolipids. The transcriptional response of spaceflight-grown P. aeruginosa was compared with our previous data of this organism grown in microgravity-analogue conditions using the rotating wall vessel (RWV) bioreactor technology. Interesting similarities were observed, among others with regard to Hfq regulation and oxygen utilization. While LSMMG-grown P. aeruginosa mainly induced genes involved in microaerophilic metabolism, P. aeruginosa cultured in spaceflight adopted an anaerobic mode of growth, in which denitrification was presumably most prominent. Differences in hardware between spaceflight and LSMMG experiments, in combination with more pronounced low fluid shear and mixing in spaceflight when compared to LSMMG conditions, were hypothesized to be at the origin of these observations. Collectively, our data suggest that spaceflight conditions could induce the transition of P. aeruginosa from an opportunistic organism to potential pathogen, results that are of importance for infectious disease risk assessment and prevention, both during spaceflight missions and in the clinic. This study describes the transcriptional response of P. aeruginosa PAO1 to low-Earth orbit environmental conditions. Our aim was to assess whether the microgravity environment of spaceflight could induce virulence traits in P. aeruginosa. To this end, P. aeruginosa cultures were grown in space, and the expression profile was compared with ground control samples (both in biological triplicate). Two RWV samples also examined (did not re-analyze them, only compared the outputs).

Project description:In this study we analyzed and compared total proteome and secretome of the wild-type and JN1 mutant strains of Bordetella pertussis. The single-nucleotide transversion in the 5’-UTR of the rplN gene of JN1 mutant led to the increased transcription of the whole operon encoding ribosomal proteins and of the adjoining rpoA gene. These events led to the downregulation and decreased secretion of virulence factors on the background ofgenerally deregulated expression of B. pertussis genome. To get deeper inside in the molecular mechanisms of the observed genome deregulation we then performed the immunoprecipitation of RpoA and compared its binding partners in wild-type and JN1 mutant strains. Nano Reversed phase column (EASY-Spray column, 50 cm x 75 µm ID, PepMap C18, 2µm particles, 100Å pore size) was used for LC/MS analysis. Mobile phase buffer A was composed of water and 0.1% formic acid. Mobile phase B was composed of acetonitrile and 0.1% formic acid. Samples were loaded onto the trap column (Acclaim PepMap300, C18, 5µm, 300Å wide Pore, 300 µm x 5 mm) at a flow rate of 15 μl/min. Loading buffer was composed of water, 2% acetonitrile and 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid. Peptides were eluted with gradient of B from 4% to 35% over 60 min at a flow rate of 300 nl/min. Eluting peptide cations were converted to gas-phase ions by electrospray ionization and analyzed on a Thermo Orbitrap Fusion (Q-OT- qIT, Thermo). Survey scans of peptide precursors from 350 to 1400 m/z were performed at 120K resolution (at 200 m/z) with a 5 × 105 ion count target. Tandem MS was performed by isolation at 1.5 Th with the quadrupole, HCD fragmentation with normalized collision energy of 30, and rapid scan MS analysis in the ion trap. The MS 2 ion count target was set to 104 and the max injection time was 35 ms. Only those precursors with the charge state 2–6 were sampled for MS 2. The dynamic exclusion duration was set to 45 s with a 10ppm tolerance around the selected precursor and its isotopes. Monoisotopic precursor selection was turned on. The instrument was run in top speed mode with 2s cycles (76). The data were analyzed and quantified with label-free quantification (LFQ) algorithms in MaxQuant v1.6.3.3 (77) and the Andromeda search engine(78). The false discovery rate (FDR) parameter was set to 1 % for both proteins and peptides. The enzyme specificity of trypsin was set as C-terminal to Arg and Lys. Carbamidomethylation was set as the fixed modification, while N-terminal protein acetylation and methionine oxidation were variable modifications. Maximal number of missed cleavages was set to 2. All hits identified in searches as contaminants were filtered out. The data were searched against Bordetella pertussis reference proteome database (strain Tohama I / ATCC BAA-589 / NCTC 13251).
