IP C5ORF30 macrophage immunometabolism regulator gene

ABSTRACT: Expression of the macrophage immunometabolism regulator gene (MACIR) is associated with severity of autoimmune disease pathology and the regulation of macrophage biology through unknown mechanisms. The 206 amino acid protein lacks homology to any characterized protein sequence and is a disordered protein according to structure prediction algorithms. Here we identify specific interactions of MACIR using a fragment complementation-based affinity pull down of cellular proteins prepared with a membrane solubilization buffer. Quantitative mass spectrometry showed enrichment of nuclear and mitochondrial proteins and of 63 significant interacting proteins, binding to the nuclear transport receptor TNPO1 and trafficking proteins UNC119 homolog A and B were validated by immunoprecipitation. Analysis of mutations in two candidate recognition motifs in the MACIR amino acid sequence confirmed TNPO1 binds via a PY-NLS motif (aa98-117). Characterizing nuclear MACIR activity in macrophage and fibroblasts is a priority with respect to developing strategies for treatment of autoimmune disease.

Expression of the macrophage immunometabolism regulator gene (MACIR) is associated with severity of autoimmune disease pathology and with the regulation of macrophage biology through unknown mechanisms. The encoded 206 amino acid protein lacks homology to any characterized protein sequence and is a disordered protein according to structure prediction algorithms. To identify interactions of MACIR with proteins from all subcellular compartments, a membrane solubilization buffer is employed, that t ...[more]

Project description:Data from clinical studies, cell culture, and animal models implicate the urokinase (uPA)/Plasminogen (Plg) system in the development of atherosclerosis and aneurysms. However, the mechanisms through which uPA/Plg stimulate these diseases are not yet defined. We used genetically modified, atherosclerosis-prone mice, including mice with macrophage-specific uPA overexpression to clarify mechanisms of uPA/Plg-accelerated atherosclerosis and aneurysm formation. Microarray studies were performed to identify potential mediators of uPA-accelerated atherosclerosis. These studies identified S100A8 and S100A9 mRNA as the most highly upregulated transcripts in uPA-overexpressing macrophages; upregulation of S100A9 protein in uPA-overexpressing macrophages was confirmed by Western blotting. S100A8/A9, which are atherogenic in mice and are expressed in human atherosclerotic plaques, are also upregulated in aortae of mice with uPA-overexpressing macrophages, and macrophage S100A9 mRNA is upregulated by exposure of wild-type macrophages to medium from uPA-overexpressing macrophages. Bioinformatics analysis of the microarray data suggest significant effects of uPA overexpression on cell migration and cell-matrix interactions. Our results confirm—in a second animal model—that macrophage-expressed uPA stimulates atherosclerosis and aortic dilation. They also implicate specific pathways in uPA/Plg-accelerated atherosclerosis and aneurysmal disease. Six independent biological replicate RNA samples were prepared from thioglycollate-elicited peritoneal macrophages from mice of two different genotypes: SR-uPA+/0 transgenic (overexpress uPA in macrophages) and nontransgenic, respectively), for a total of 12 independent RNA samples. Both transgenic and nontransgenic mice were Apoe-/- and were fed Western diet from 5-15 weeks before peritoneal macrophages were elicited. In addition, from the six samples of each genotype, a pooled sample was prepared by combining the six genotype-specific samples. Each of the two pooled samples was assayed on the BeadChip in two technical replicates, for a total of 16 hybridizations performed using two Illumina Mouse Ref-8 v1.1 chips.
