An oxygen-sensing network of RNA-binding proteins controls glycolysis via hypoxic translatome remodeling.

ABSTRACT: System-wide remodeling of protein synthesis is a keystone of cellular stress adaptation. Accumulating evidence suggests that changes in protein output (translatome) are controlled predominantly by translational mechanisms that restructure mRNA translation efficiencies (TEs), rather than simple fluctuations in mRNA expression. At the core of this phenomenon lies the key outstanding issue as to the drivers of such stimuli-induced translatome reprogramming, especially from an unbiased, systemic perspective. Oxygen deficiency (hypoxia) is frequently encountered in health and disease. In this study, we report the RNA-binding protein (RBP) nexus that governs oxygen-sensitive translatome reprogramming. Global MATRIX analysis produced an impartial, activity-based blueprint of dynamic RBP utilization, revealing hypoxia-augmented translational activities of HuR hnRNP A2/B1, PCBP1, PCBP2, and PTBP1. Translatome analysis by TMT-pSILAC of each aforementioned RBP revealed a synergistic network that effectuates oxygen-dependent translatome reorganization to enable hypoxic adaptation. Specifically, each RBP is tasked with activating a distinct portfolio of targets and cellular processes that synergistically contribute toward a comprehensive hypoxic response. Notably, the activation of glycolysis and hypoxic cell survival are critically dependent on this RBP network. The hypoxia-inducible factor 2α (HIF-2α) operates as the critical translation-regulating oxygen-sensor that collaborates with this RBP network to regulate mRNA TE and steady-state levels. These observations reveal an RBP/HIF-2α axis that restructures protein output in response to oxygen fluctuations. Conceptually, these findings demonstrate that stress-sensing RBP networks act as gatekeepers of mRNA utilization for global translational remodeling.

Protein expression evolves under greater evolutionary constraint than mRNA levels, and translation efficiency represents a primary determinant of protein levels during stimuli adaptation. This raises the question as to the translatome remodelers that titrate protein output from mRNA populations. Here, we uncover a network of RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) that enhances the translation efficiency of glycolytic proteins in cells responding to oxygen deprivation.

Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a Gram-negative, opportunistic bacterium and a major etiological agent in monogenic disease cystic fibrosis (CF). High density colonies of P. aeruginosa are often isolated from hypoxic mucus plugs in respiratory tract of CF patients, indicating high adaptive capacities of the bacterium. Despite the high prevalence and related patient mortality, the protein machinery enabling the bacterium to adapt to this hypoxic environment remains to be fully elucidated. We investigated this by performing both SWATH mass spectrometry and data-dependent SPS-MS3 of TMT labelled peptides to profile the proteomes of two P. aeruginosa CF isolates, PASS2 and PASS3, and a laboratory reference strain, PAO1, grown under hypoxic stress (O2<1%) and aerobic conditions in media that mimics the nutrient components of the CF lung. 3,967 P. aeruginosa proteins were quantitated (FDR <1%) across all three strains, reflecting approximately 71% of predicted ORFs in PAO1 and representing the most comprehensive proteome of clinically relevant P. aeruginosa to date. Comparative analysis revealed 735, 640 and 364 proteins were altered by two-fold or more when comparing low oxygen to aerobic growth in PAO1, PASS2 and PASS3 respectively. Strikingly, under hypoxic stress, all strains showed concurrent increased abundance of proteins required for both aerobic (cbb3-1 and cbb3-2 terminal oxidases) and anaerobic denitrification and arginine fermentation, with the two clinical isolates showing higher relative expression of proteins in these pathways. Additionally, functional annotation revealed that clinical strains portray a unique expression profile of replication, membrane biogenesis and virulence proteins during hypoxia which may endow these bacteria with a survival advantage. These protein profiles illuminate the diversity of P. aeruginosa mechanisms to adapt to low oxygen and shows that CF isolates initiate a robust molecular response to persist under these conditions.
