Cadmium is one of the most common heavy metals in contaminated aquatic environments and one of the most toxic contaminants for phytoplankton. Nevertheless, there are not enough studies focused on the effect of this metal in algae. Through a proteomic approach, this work shows how Cd can alter the growth, cell morphology and metabolism of the microalga Chlorella sorokiniana. Using the sequential window acquisition of all theoretical fragment ion spectra mass spectrometry (SWATH-MS), we concluded ...[more]

Project description:Hydrogen sulfide is a signaling molecule that regulates essential processes for plant performance, such as autophagy. In Arabidopsis thaliana, hydrogen sulfide negatively regulates autophagy independently of reactive oxygen species, but the underlying mechanism remains to be understood. To determine whether persulfidation, an emergent posttranslational modification, has a main role in the control of autophagy by sulfide, we have used a proteomic approach targeting ATG4, a cysteine protease that plays a crucial role in autophagy progression. We showed that AtATG4a from A. thaliana, which is the predominant ATG4 protease in this plant species, contains a specific site for persulfidation, the residue Cys170, included in the characteristic catalytic triad Cys-His-Asp of cysteine proteases. We tested whether persulfidation regulates the activity of ATG4 by setting up a heterologous assay using the Chlamydomonas reinhardtii CrATG8 protein as a substrate. Our findings demonstrate that sulfide significantly inactivates AtATG4a cleavage activity in a reversible manner. The biological significance of the reversible inhibition of the ATG4 protease by sulfide is supported by our findings in Arabidopsis leaves under both basal and autophagy-inducing conditions. We also observed a significant increase in the overall ATG4 activity in Arabidopsis under nitrogen starvation and osmotic stress, which is inhibited by sulfide. Therefore, our data strongly suggest that the negative regulation of autophagy by sulfide is mediated, at least, by the specific persulfidation of the protease ATG4.

Project description:Hydrogen cyanide (HCN) is coproduced with ethylene in plant cells and primarily enzymatically detoxified by the mitochondrial ß-cyanoalanine synthase (CAS-C1). Permanent or transient depletion of CAS-C1 activity in Arabidopsis results in physiological alterations in the plant that suggest that the function of HCN is a gasotransmitter molecule. Label-free quantitative proteomic analysis of enriched mitochondrial samples isolated from the wild type and cas-c1 mutant revealed significant changes in protein content, identifying 451 proteins that are absent or less abundant in cas-c1 and 353 proteins that are only present or more abundant in the mutant background. Gene ontology classification of these proteins highlights proteomic changes that explains the root hairless phenotype and the altered immune response observed in the cas-c1 mutant. The mechanism of action of cyanide as a signaling molecule has been addressed using two proteomic approaches focused on identifying the S-cyanylation of cysteine as a posttranslational modification of proteins. Both the 2-imino-thiazolidine chemical method and the direct untargeted analysis of proteins using LC-MS/MS identified a set of 163 proteins susceptible to S-cyanylation that included sedoheptulose 1, 7-bisphosphatase (SBPase), the peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase (CYP20-3) and enolase 2 (ENO2). In vitro analysis of these proteins identified that this modification in the SBPase Cys74, CYP20-3 Cys259 and ENO2 Cys346 residues affected the enzymatic activity of the enzymes. GO classification and protein-protein interaction cluster analysis revealed the function of S-cyanylation in the regulation of primary metabolic pathways, such as glycolysis, and the Calvin and S-adenosylmethionine cycles.

Project description:This ArrayExpress record contains meta-data and results of quantitative analysis of cell lines from the NCI-60 panel using pressure cycling technology (PCT) and SWATH-mass spectrometry. Each cell line was analyzed in duplicate. Raw data files are available at the EMBL-EBI protemics data archive (PRIDE) at accession PXD003539 (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/pride/archive/projects/PXD003539). Since the record here does not include the raw data files and hence there is no need to explicitly link individual replicate to a raw file, each sample is only listed once in the ArrayExpress samples table for clarity.

Project description:Neddylation is a post-translational mechanism that adds a ubiquitin-like protein, namely neural precursor cell expressed developmentally down-regulated protein 8, to target proteins, with yet-unknown consequences. Here we show in mice that neddylation in liver is modulated by nutrient availability. Inhibition of neddylation in mouse liver (either pharmacologically or genetically) reduces gluconeogenic capacity and the hyperglycemic actions of counterregulatory hormones (glucagon, adrenaline and glucocorticoids). Further, people with obesity and type 2 diabetes (compared to people with obesity and normoglycemia) display elevated hepatic neddylation levels that correlate positively with fasting glucose levels. Mechanistically, we determined that fasting or caloric restriction of mice leads to neddylation of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase 1 (PCK1) at three lysine residues—K278, K342 and K387. PCK1 is a key control point for gluconeogenesis regulation that can be post-translationally modified by acetylation and phosphorylation, but to date no modifications are known to affect its gluconeogenic capacity. Of note, we find that mutating the three PCK1 lysines that are neddylated reduces its gluconeogenic activity rate. Molecular dynamics simulations show that neddylation of PCK1 could re-position two loops surrounding the catalytic center into an open configuration, rendering the catalytic center more accessible. Our study reveals that neddylation of PCK1 provides a finely-tuned mechanism of controlling glucose metabolism by linking whole nutrient availability to metabolic homeostasis.

Project description:Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) is renowned for its variable clinical course and response to therapy, suggesting a role for precision medicine. However, the molecular basis of CLL variability remains incompletely understood. Recent developments in data independent acquisition (DIA) -MS technologies, such as SWATH (Sequential Windowed Acquisition of all THeoretical fragments), provide an opportunity to study the pathophysiology of CLL at the proteome level. This report describes the sample replication and data handling requirements for SWATH-MS analysis of clinical samples. A CLL-specific spectral library compromising over 1,500,000 spectra with digital information for over 150,000 peptides has been generated to enable the quantification of up to 7736 proteins. To assess the reproducibility of the assay, SWATH-MS analysis was performed on 6 cryopreserved CLL patient samples, incorporating biological (IGHV mutational status), sample preparation and MS technical replicates. Quantitative information was obtained for 5169 proteins (<1% FDR) across 54 SWATH-MS acquisitions. These analyses showed that SWATH-MS is a highly reproducible technique. However, replicate sample preparations on different days was identified as the main source of variation. To overcome the effect of variation between sample preparation batches, different computational approaches for batch correction were tested. All approaches successfully removed technical variability whilst retaining proteomic differences between clinical subgroups. Functional enrichment analysis of proteins associated to IGHV mutational status highlighted the importance of metabolic remodelling in the biology of CLL and overlapped significantly with previous studies based on gene expression profiling. Finally, an approach to perform statistical power analysis in proteomics studies was developed. This approach could be used to drive the design of future CLL SWATH-MS studies. These fundamental requirements for DIA approaches should be widely applicable to other clinical proteomics studies.

Project description:Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) is a myeloproliferative disorder caused by expression of the chimeric BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase oncogene, resulting from the t(9;22) chromosomal translocation. Imatinib (gleevec, STI-571) is a selective inhibitor of Bcr-Abl activity highly effective in the treatment of CML. However, even though almost all CML patients respond to treatment with imatinib or third generation inhibitors. These drugs are not curative and need to be taken indefinitely or until patients become resistant. Therefore, to get a definitive eradication of leukemic cells, it is necessary to find novel therapeutic combinations, for achieving greater efficacy and fewer side effects. Nutraceuticals play an increasingly important role in the treatment of cancer. Curcumin is an Indian spice with several therapeutic properties: anti-oxidant, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antiseptic and anti-cancer. In cancer disease, it acts by blocking cell transformation, proliferation, and invasion and by inducing cell apoptosis. In the present study, byapplying a quantitative proteomic SWATH-MS strategy we evaluated the effect of curcumin onK562 cells. Our findings revealed that the most relevant effect induced by curcumin was a consistent decrease of several proteins involved in glucose metabolism, most of which were HIF-1α targets, concomitant with the up-regulation of functional and structural mitochondrial proteins. The mechanism by which curcumin affects metabolic enzyme profile was associated with the reduction of HIF-1α activity, due to the miR-22-mediated down-regulation of importin 7 (IPO7) expression. Finally, the ability of curcumin to enhance in vitro the efficiency of imatinib was reported. In summary, our data indicates that the miR-22/IPO7/HIF-1α axis may be considered as a novel molecular target of curcumin adding new insights for better defining therapeutic activity and anticancer properties of this natural compound.

Project description:Galiellalactone (GL) is a fungal metabolite that presents antitumor and anti-inflammatory activities in vitro and in vivo. Previous studies have shown that GL targets NF-KB and STAT3 pathways and induces G2/M cell cycle arrest in androgen-insensitive prostate cancer cells. In this study, we show that GL-induced cell cycle arrest is independent of the NF-KB and STAT3 pathways in DU145 and PC-3 cells, and also that GL did not affect cell cycling in androgen-sensitive prostate cancer cell such as LNCaP and 22Rv1 cells. In addition, we showed confluence resistance to GL in DU145 cells. Using a SWATH proteomic approach we identified the down-regulation of Nucleolar and spindle associated protein 1 (NUSAP1) under DU145 confluence and in LNCaP cells. Also, the inhibition of NUSAP1 by siRNAs induced resistance to GL in DU145 cells, suggesting that NUSAP1 may be a target for GL and could be useful as biomarker for responsiveness of the antitumor activity of GL.

Project description:Colorectal cancer is one of the most common and widespread disease in the world and the third type of cancer causing a high mortality rate. There is increasing evidence that some polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are involved in the reduction of cancer risk and progression. Recent studies showed that sn-2 monoacylglycerols (MAG) exercise specific inhibitory actions on cancer cells through different mechanisms. However, the anticancer effect of PUFA-based MAGs on colorectal cancer has yet to be assessed. In this work we investigated the actions of two PUFAs, docosahexaenoic (DHA, 22: 6n3) and arachidonic acids (ARA, 20:4n6), both as MAG, on colon cancer human (HT-29) cell line. We performed the MTT test, LDH, and caspase-3 assays, while global proteome changes were assessed by SWATH-MS quantitative proteomics followed by pathway analysis in order to find out which molecular mechanisms were being affected. It has been proven that ARA- and DHA-MAG exercises dose- and time-dependent antiproliferative actions. In all cases, DHA-MAG acts on cancer cells more efficiently than ARA-MAG. Results clearly demonstrate the ability of MAGs to induce cell death in colon cancer cells and suggest a direct relationship between their chemical structure and their potency. Therefore, sn-2 MAG are suitable candidate for the production of new functional ingredients.
