Project description:Developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs) are a group of rare childhood disorders characterized by severe epilepsy and cognitive deficits. Numerous DEE genes have been discovered thanks to advances in genomic diagnosis, yet putative molecular links between these disorders are unknown. CDKL5 deficiency disorder (CDD, DEE2), one of the most common genetic epilepsies, is caused by loss-of-function mutations in the brain-enriched kinase CDKL5. To elucidate CDKL5 function, we looked for CDKL5 substrates using a SILAC-based phosphoproteomic screen. We identified the voltage-gated Ca2+ channel Cav2.3 (encoded by CACNA1E) as a novel physiological target of CDKL5 in mice and humans. Recombinant channel electrophysiology and interdisciplinary characterization of Cav2.3 phosphomutant mice revealed that loss of Cav2.3 phosphorylation leads to channel gain-of-function via slower inactivation and enhanced cholinergic stimulation, resulting in increased neuronal excitability. Our results thus show that CDD is partly a channelopathy. The properties of unphosphorylated Cav2.3 closely resemble those described for CACNA1E gain-of-function mutations causing DEE69, a disorder sharing clinical features with CDD. We show that these two single-gene diseases are mechanistically related and could be ameliorated with Cav2.3 inhibitors.

Project description:DNA/RNA helicase Upf1 seems to interact with axonal transcripts in response to nerve growth factor (NGF, A. Ludanyi, M. Gaspari and A. Riccio, unpublished data). In order to shed light on Upf1 mechanism of action and to identify potential associations with molecules having cleavage activity, we performed an AP-MS experiment comprising Upf1 immunoprecipitation, on-beads digestion, isotopic labelling (18O) and quantitative LC-MS/MS analysis.

Project description:BRCA2 maintains genome stability by facilitating DNA repair via homologous recombination and replication fork stability. Loss of BRCA2 is deleterious for survival of normal cells, but is paradoxically tolerated in cancer cells. Using quantitative mass-spectrometry, differences in protein expression were identified that might shed light on how breast cancer cells (HCC38) survive in the absence of BRCA2.

Project description:Intracellular signaling nodes can sample multiple inputs and induce different cellular outputs. High combinatorial between their numerous potential conformational intermediaries having distinct enzymatic activities and/or repertoire of partners makes it challenging to determine their dynamic coding molecularly. We have combined protein engineering with optogenetic to investigate coding functions of specific intermediaries of the kinase Src, a representative example of versatile signaling node. Optogenetic is used to generate local flux of specific Src intermediaries, as Src dimers, into adhesion sites. Modulations of this molecular flux are sufficient to code different Src signaling pathways and Src-dependent cellular outputs implicated in migration or invasion. This response selectivity is based on the ability for each flux of Src conformational intermediary to generate distinct Src signaling waves in protein-protein interaction networks revealed by time-resolved analysis of phosphotyrosine-proteome. Thus, the pleiotropy of a signaling node is molecularly coded by modulation of its local fluxes of specific conformational intermediaries.

Project description:Interferon-induced transmembrane protein 3 (IFITM3) is a restriction factor that limits viral pathogenesis and exerts poorly understood immunoregulatory functions. Here, using human and mouse models, we demonstrate that IFITM3 promotes MyD88-dependent, TLR-mediated IL-6 production following exposure to cytomegalovirus (CMV). IFITM3 also restricts IL-6 production in response to influenza and SARS-CoV-2. In dendritic cells, IFITM3 binds to the reticulon 4 isoform Nogo-B and promotes its proteasomal degradation. We reveal that Nogo-B mediates TLR-dependent pro-inflammatory cytokine production and promotes viral pathogenesis in vivo, and in the case of TLR2 responses, this process involves alteration of TLR2 cellular localization. Nogo-B deletion abrogates inflammatory cytokine responses and associated disease in virus-infected IFITM3-deficient mice. Thus, we uncover Nogo-B as a driver of viral pathogenesis and highlight an immunoregulatory pathway in which IFITM3 fine-tunes the responsiveness of myeloid cells to viral stimulation.

Project description:Mutations in the human CDKL5 gene have been associated with early onset seizure variant of Rett Syndrome. In order to investigate the potential involvement of CDKL5 in the regulation of gene expression, we compared expression profiles in WT vs CDKL5-mutated IPS clones from two patients (one male and one female) with different mutations using two-colour microarray experiments. For the female patient (CDKL5 mutation p.Gln347X) we compared one clone expressing the mutant CDKL5 allele to another clone from the same patient that expresses the wild-type allele. Maintenance of X chromosome inactivation and the resulting mono-allelic expression of CDKL5 were confirmed by androgen receptor assay and direct sequencing of CDKL5 mRNA. The clone derived from the male patient (CDKL5 mutation p.Thr288Ile) was compared to a clone derived from a normal newborn male. For each mutant/control pair four technical replicates were performed for a total of eight chip hybridizations.

Project description:Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) renders epithelial cells to acquire migratory characteristics during development and cancer metastasis. While epigenetic and splicing changes have been implicated in EMT, the mechanisms governing their crosstalk remain poorly understood. Here, we identify C2H2 zinc finger protein, ZNF827, a novel factor, is strongly induced during important EMT mediated processes including in brain development and breast cancer metastasis and is required for the molecular and phenotypic changes underlying EMT in these processes. Mechanistically, ZNF827 mediated these responses by orchestrating a large-scale remodeling of the splicing landscape by recruiting HDAC1 for epigenetic modulation of distinct genomic loci, thereby slowing RNA Pol II progression and altering the splicing of transcripts encoding key EMT regulators in cis. These findings reveal an unprecedented complexity between epigenetic landscape and splicing and identifies ZNF827 as a master regulator coupling these processes during EMT in brain development and breast cancer metastasis.

Project description:Small Ubiquitin-like Modifiers play critical roles in the DNA Damage Response (DDR). To increase our understanding of SUMOylation in the mammalian DDR, we employed a quantitative proteomics approach to identify dynamically regulated SUMO-2 conjugates and modification sites upon treatment with the DNA damaging agent MMS. We have uncovered a dynamic set of 20 upregulated and 33 downregulated SUMO-2 conjugates, and 755 SUMO-2 sites, of which 362 were dynamic in response to MMS. In contrast to yeast, where a response is centered on homologous recombination, we identified dynamically SUMOylated interaction networks of chromatin modifiers, transcription factors, DNA repair factors and nuclear body components. SUMOylated chromatin modifiers include JARID1B/KDM5B, JARID1C/KDM5C, p300, CBP, PARP1, SetDB1 and MBD1. Whereas SUMOylated JARID1B was ubiquitylated by the SUMO-targeted ubiquitin ligase RNF4 and degraded by the proteasome in response to DNA damage, JARID1C was SUMOylated and recruited to the chromatin to demethylate histone H3K4.

Project description:Mutations in the human CDKL5 gene have been shown to cause infantile spasms, as well as Rett syndrome-like phenotype. Because CDKL5 is subjected to X chromosome inactivation (XCI), individual cells from CDKL5 mutation girls either express the wild-type or mutant allele, likely resulting in different consequences at both the cellular and molecular levels. To identify these consequences, we carried out gene expression profiling on clonal populations derived from primary cultures of three patientsM-^R fibroblasts expressing either allele. A total of 16 up-regulated and 20 down-regulated genes were identified. The differentially expressed gene products, mostly involved in differentiation and oxidative stress may be related to a mechanism underlying mental retardation and epilepsy. Among these differentially expressed proteins, the apoptosis signal-regulated kinase MAP3K5 expression was found to be altered in non-neuronal, but also in neuronal CDKL5 deficient cells. Due to the fact that MAP3K5 activates MAP kinase pathway, which mediates signals leading to both differentiation and survival in neuronal cells, we suggest that a CDKL5 deficit may induce changes in synaptic plasticity in patientM-^Rs brain.
