The citrus industry is facing an unprecedented challenge from Huanglongbing (HLB). All cultivars can be affected by the HLB-associated bacterium 'Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus' (CLas) and there is no known resistance. Insight into HLB pathogenesis is urgently needed in order to develop effective management strategies. Here, we use Sec-delivered effector 1 (SDE1), which is conserved in all CLas isolates, as a molecular probe to understand CLas virulence. We show that SDE1 directly interacts w ...[more]

Project description:Oxidative stress is a hallmark of tumorigenic infections, yet the underlying oxidation events that contribute to tumor growth remain poorly understood. By using chemical proteomics to map cysteine reactivity in human gastric cells, we determined that infection with the cancer-causing bacterium Helicobacter pylori induces oxidation of the lysosomal protease legumain at Cys219. The site-specific loss of Cys219 reactivity dysregulates intracellular legumain processing and localization in H. pylori-infected cells and increases tumor growth and mortality in a xenograft model. These findings establish a link between cysteine oxidation and tumorigenic signaling during bacterial infection and underscore the importance of oxidative post-translational modifications in tumor growth.

Project description:Nuclear localization of PTEN is essential for its tumor suppressive role, and loss of nuclear PTEN is more prominent than cytoplasmic PTEN in many kinds of cancers. However, nuclear PTEN-specific regulatory mechanisms were rarely reported. Based on the finding that nuclear PTEN is more unstable than cytoplasmic PTEN. Thus, 293T cells were transiently transfected with plasmid encoding Flag-tagged PTEN along with empty vector, followed by affinity purification using an anti-Flag antibody, and the bound proteins were analyzed by liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC−MS/MS). Here we identify that F-box only protein 22 (FBXO22) induces ubiquitylation of nuclear but not cytoplasmic PTEN at lysine 221, which is responsible for the degradation of nuclear PTEN.

Project description:Deubiquitinases (DUBs) are proteases that hydrolyze isopeptide bonds linking ubiquitin to protein substrates, which can lead to reduced substrate degradation through the ubiquitin proteasome system. Deregulation of DUB activity has been im-plicated in many disease states, including cancer, neurodegeneration and inflammation, making them potentially attractive targets for therapeutic intervention. The >100 known DUB enzymes have been classified primarily by their conserved active sites, but we are still building our understanding of their substrate profiles, localization and regulation of DUB activity in di-verse contexts. Ubiquitin-derived covalent activity-based probes (ABPs) are the premier tool for DUB activity profiling, but their large recognition element impedes cellular permeability and presents an unmet need for small molecule ABPs which account for local DUB concentration, protein interactions, complexes, and organelle compartmentalization in intact cells or organisms. Here, through comprehensive warhead profiling we identify cyanopyrrolidine (CNPy) probe IMP-2373 (12), a small molecule pan-DUB ABP to monitor DUB activity in physiologically relevant live cell systems. Through chemical prote-omics and targeted assays we demonstrate that IMP-2373 quantitatively engages more than 35 DUBs in live cells across a range of non-toxic concentrations, and in diverse cell lines and disease models, including induction of MYC deregulation in B cell lymphoma. IMP-2373 thus offers a complementary tool to ubiquitin ABPs to monitor dynamic DUB activity in the con-text of disease-relevant phenotypes.

Project description:Physical interactions between viral and host proteins are responsible for almost all aspects of the viral life cycle and the host’s immune response. Studying viral-host protein-protein interactions is thus crucial for identifying strategies for treatment and prevention of viral infection. Here, we use high-throughput yeast two-hybrid and affinity purification followed by mass spectrometry to generate a comprehensive SARS-CoV-2-human protein-protein interactome network consisting of both binary and co-complex interactions. We report a total of 739 high-confidence interactions, showing the highest overlap of interaction partners among published datasets as well as the highest overlap with genes differentially expressed in samples (such as upper airway and bronchial epithelial cells) from patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection. Showcasing the utility of our network, we describe a novel interaction between the viral accessory protein ORF3a and the host zinc finger transcription factor ZNF579 to illustrate a SARS-CoV-2 factor mediating a direct impact on host transcription. Leveraging our interactome, we performed network-based drug screens for over 2,900 FDA-approved/investigational drugs and obtained a curated list of 23 drugs that had significant network proximities to SARS-CoV-2 host factors, one of which, carvedilol, showed promising antiviral properties. We performed electronic health record-based validation using two independent large-scale, longitudinal COVID-19 patient databases and found that carvedilol usage was associated with a significantly lowered probability (17%-20%, P < 0.001) of obtaining a SARS-CoV-2 positive test after adjusting various confounding factors. Carvedilol additionally showed anti-viral activity against SARS-CoV-2 in a human lung epithelial cell line [(half maximal effective concentration (EC 50 ) value of 4.1 µM]), suggesting a mechanism for its beneficial effect in COVID-19. Our study demonstrates the value of large-scale network systems biology approaches for extracting biological insight from complex biological processes.

Project description:The aim of this work was to study the effects of Mn excess on the protein profile of the xylem sap of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), with the aim of elucidating plant response mechanisms to these nutritional stresses. Tomato was chosen as a model plant because the tomato genome has been published and this plant species has adequate root pressure and turgid stems that permit xylem sap sampling in sufficient amounts by de-topping. The high- throughput shotgun analysis has permitted to identify and quantitate a large number of low abundance proteins in the tomato xylem sap.

Project description:PTEN, a widely investigated tumor suppressor, has at least two longer translational variants, PTEN and . However, the regulation and precise roles of endogenous PTEN/ in tumorigenesis remain greatly unknown. Here we show that USP9X and FBXW11 selectively regulate the stability of PTEN/ but not PTEN proteins by deubiqitination and ubiquitination respectively. USP9X promotes and FBXW11 suppresses tumorigenesis mediated by PTEN/. In contrast to the current paradigm for PTEN as a tumor suppressor, PTEN/ promote tumorigenesis of cancer cells in a phosphatase-independent manner. Mechanistically, PTEN/ localized in the nucleus regulate expressions of tumor-promoting genes such as NOTCH3 in the similar way as the H3K4 presenter WDR5. Further, PTEN/ but not PTEN directly interact with WDR5 to promote trimethylation of H3K4 and maintain a tumor-promoting signature. Taken together, our results indicate that PTEN/ are a double-edged sword for carcinogenesis, suggesting that reinterpretation of the importance of PTEN gene in carcinogenesis is warranted.

Project description:Nitroimidazoles such as metronidazole are used as anti-infective drugs against anaerobic bacteria. Upon in vivo reduction of the nitro group, reactive radicals damage DNA and proteins in the absence of oxygen. Unexpectedly, a recent study of nitroimidazoles linked to an indolin-2-one substituent revealed potent activities against aerobic bacteria. This suggests a different, yet undiscovered mode of action (MoA). To decipher this MoA, we first performed whole proteome analysis of compound treated cells, revealing an upregulation of bacteriophage-associated proteins, indicative of DNA damage. Since DNA binding of the compound was not observed, we applied activity-based protein profiling (ABPP) for direct target discovery. Labeling studies revealed topoisomerase IV, an essential enzyme for DNA replication, as the most enriched hit in pathogenic Staphylococcus aureus cells. Subsequent topoisomerase assays confirmed the inhibition of DNA decatenation in the presence of indolin-2-one nitroimidazole with an activity comparable to ciprofloxacin, a known inhibitor of this enzyme. Furthermore, we determined significantly increased redox potentials of indolin-2-one nitroimidazoles compared to classic 5-nitroimidazoles such as metronidazole, which facilitates in vivo reduction. Overall, this study unravels that indolin-2-one functionalized nitroimidazoles feature an unexpected dual MoA, which impairs resistance development. Given the clinical application of this compound class, the new mechanism could be a starting point to mitigate resistance.

Project description:The experiment consists of M.hyp 232 cultures digests analyzed on two mass specs, LTQ Velos Pro and LTQ FT Ultra LTQ Velos Pro: Six cell culture replicates of M.hyo 232 were hydrophobically separated using tree detergents: Digitonin, Tween, and SDS. Each francion, including the insoluble pellet, was trypsin digested and then cleaned using an SCX trap follwed by a RP trap to remove detergents. Each fraction was sepated using a Dionex U3000 splitless nanoflow system operating at 333 nl per minute using a gradient of 2% ACN to 50% ACN in 4 hours. Eluate was analyzed using an LTQ Velos Pro mass spectrometer with 20 MS/MS scans of the 20 most intense peaks from each MS scan. Dynamic exclusion was enable for 3 minutes for each m/z with a repeat count of 1. LTQ FT Ultra: Two cell pellets for high resolution analysis were lysed and trypsin digested. Digested peptides were dried, resuspended in 20 mM KH2PO4, 20% ACN, pH 3 (Buffer A) in 2.5 µL and transferred to low retention vials in preparation for separation using an Ultimate 3000 configured for 2D-LC. Each sample was loaded at 15 µl/min onto an SCX microtrap for the first dimension of separation, involving SCX steps of Buffer A + 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 100, 250, 500, and 1000 mM KCl. For the second dimension of separation, each eluted salt step was desalted with an inline peptide microtrap with 2% ACN, 0.1% FA at 5 µl/min. Once desalted, the microtrap was switched into line with a fritless nano column (75µm x ~10cm) containing C18 media (5µ, 200 Å Magic, Michrom). Peptides were eluted using a gradient of 2% to 36% ACN, 0.1% FA at 350 nl/min over 60 min and electrospray ionized for analysis using an LTQ FT Ultra mass spectrometer. A survey scan m/z 350-1750 was acquired in the FT ICR cell (Resolution = 100,000 at m/z 400, with an accumulation target value of 1,000,000 ions). Up to the 6 most abundant ions (>3,000 counts) with charge states > +2 were sequentially isolated and fragmented within the linear ion trap using collisionally induced dissociation with an activation q = 0.25 and activation time of 30 ms at a target value of 30,000 ions. M/z ratios selected for MS/ MS were dynamically excluded for 30 seconds. Analysis: X!tandem searches were performed using the Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae strain 232 reference protein set from NCBI. The only difference between the searches for the LTQ Velos and LTQ FT was the precursor mass tolenance being set to +-1500ppm and +-24ppm respectively. Decoy searches were performed and the data filtered at e-value <= 0.01 with single peptide proteins discarded. These results are included in the submission as two tab-delimited text files.
